Both Eagan and IBC officials want to see for themselves how Charles will react In his fight af ter a long layoff due to a "bruised , heart muscle." The result will lead to a final decision on the Louis- Charles bout, tentatively set for Yankee stadium Sept 27. Besore, a blond Pennsylvania Dutchman from Harrisburg, Pa, has trained long and hard for his one "shot at the moon." Injuries to Charles postponed his big chance twice, after some - 700 rounds of training he's as ready as hell ever be. A weaving, crouching body puncher, Beshore will try to car ry the fight to the counter-punching champ. He and his manager, Ralph Gold, admit their chances improve as the fight goes on.

Mott Powerful Ever to Play in Loop But there Is no question that Greco, Is the most powerful slugger ever to play la the league. He net only holds the distance record for homers here but also the one for the best exhibition of belittling an opposing pitcher under fire. Kemember the seven inning second game ef a doubleheader here a couple ef years age when Greco hit three home runs, one ever the left field wall, one ever center and the other over right? What a shew he gave the folks that evening. Perhaps the batting behemoth won't hit one out of the infield during his visit this week. And perhaps hell be struck out a lot Which is nothing new for the hard-swinging guy.
