Fans Get Excited During
Wrestling Card, Threaten
To Participate in Contest
In a wild affair punctuated at one time by a near riot at
the ringside, Karl Grey and "Gentleman Dale" Haddock kick
ed, punched and hair-pulled their way to victory over Al Szasz
and Tex Hager in the main event tag team wrestling matchj
at the armory last night.
The third and deciding fall was awarded to Grey and Had
dock in five minutes when "Gentleman Dale" polished off
Szasz with a punishing back-'
breaker after his partner,
Grey, had defeated Hager in
the second fall with a reverse
Indian death lock.
Al Szasz captured the first
fall from Haddock with a ser
ies of flying head scissors and pol
ishing him off with a body press.
Police Move In
During the second fall, police
officers were forced to rush to
rinaside to prevent several spec
tators from becoming involved in
an unscheduled bout with Karl
Grey, whom the fans were at
tempting to keep from entering
the ring to neip nis Duaay, tiaa-dock.
- The semi-final match was
awarded to Steve Karas, who
fought previously here under the
name of Ted Bell. The Greek boy
took two out of three falls from
his opponent "Silent" Rattan, a
deaf mute. The bout ended quick
ly after Rattan had missed a
shoulder block and plummeted
through the ropes onto the floor.
In the 15 minute preliminary
matches, Karl Grey and Al Szasz
fought to a draw, and Hager was
awarded a win over Haddock. .
Fights Tonight
'. New York, March 31 HP) More
than 14,000 were expected to at
tend tonight's homecoming of the
"Happy Hoodlum" as Rocky Gra
ziano returned to Madlsoti Squre
garden's ring for the first time
in four years, ; ; : ; ;. 1
Ex-champion Graziano, the ber
serk Brooklyn slugger who was
Mike Jacobs' "Golden Boy," faces
Tony Janlro, young middleweight
of YoungstownV O., in a. sched
uled. 10-round bout. l(
: TJie former 16d-pound rvler was
favored at 13-5 to beat Janlro and
thereby earn the right to a title
shot at Jake LaMotta or a chal
lengers' bout with : Sugar Ray
Robinson. Although Sugar Ray Is
current welterweight boss, he
craves a crack at the middle
weight diadem.
Graziano will be squaring off in
the beak-bustin bazaar for the
first time, since March 29, 1946,
when he knocked out the then
welterweight champion, Marty
Servo, in the second round of
their non.title fight. That Servo
scrap was the last of nine Garden
main events to which Rocky at
tracted nearly $750,000.
School Smoker
Proves Popular
Redmond, March 21 (Special)
Two hundred spectators attended
Redmond union high school's first
and only smoker of the school
year, which was held Tuesday
night in the RUMS ' gym. Eight
bouts of three one ancl onc half
mlnuie rounds were fought, all
being Judged tics by Referee Mar
vin Scott.
High point of the evening was
the free-for-all medicine game be
. twoen the juniors and seniors.
Two learns of seven men on a
team fought for seven minutes,
without gloves. The seniors came
out on top, two to one.
Officials for this smoker Were

riod. Two weeks each of boxing and

are combined to be called com
natives. Boys who participate In
these sports may receive awards
of some kind, if there ate mote
fights. Harry Gobclme.n is In
structor for combat Ives.
London,, March 31 U') -f Jack
Solomons, the bookmaker, fish
monger, restauranteur and fight
promoter who is the Mike Jacobs
of the British Isles, had a gim
mick going for him today which
he hoped would allow London to
replace New York as the boxing
capital of the world. , :
At present, two foreigners can t
meet in a British ring which
means that, despite the fact that
Britons are avid fight; fans who
will pay unheard of prices lo jam
stadiums with 100,000 Seating ca
pacities, Solomons' can't get the
matches he would like to make:
"But there is a ppssiblllty that
this law will be changedland then
we might, see , something," -the
bland-faced man remarked crypti
cally, it- 1 ' V -
How the strings, will be pulled
to accomplish this change, he
would not reveal. But the 49-year-
old promoter1 is a man with the
influence and tne money to ac
complish most ends which he, sets
out to attain., v . - i 'r
Already Sellout " ' ?
Solomons is promoting" the
June 8 bout between Bruce wdod
cock and Lee Savokt for the Brit,
lsh version of the world's heavy
weight championship. : Promoting
probably is the wrong word, for
the bout Is already, a sellout, ,v
Which is a . tlpoti on now
sports mad Is the, British public.
Crowds of 70,000 storm f hfe grey
hound races; 100,000 spectators
isn't an unusual figure for soccer
or rugby, and Solomons can't
book matches fast enough to
Keep extra tickets on his" shelves.
"If Woodcock wins, and we can
get Joe Louis to fight him here,"
the blue-eyed Solomons asserted,
"if would draw more than $J,000,
000.. You could charge what you'd
like." . - - ....
i Solomons, who rises at 6 a.m.
tp BMnniS fish 6itsjlness.,personal
attention "largest fresh water
fish business In- the world" has
been interested in boxing since
he was 10.
Started In 1931
He began to promote bouts In
1931, running his first title fight,
a bantamweight championship, at
a dog track.
. boiomons, who has parlayed a
rugged shrewdness into a for
tune, Is certain that the winner
of the Woodcock.Savold fight will
be "the best heavyweight In the
world.
He doesn't give anything to Ez-
zard Charles, recognized in the
United States by the National
Boxing association as heavy.
weight champ, nor any other
American fighter, i
"You are just as bad off as
we are." Solomons argued.
As for the reason why there
aren't such outstanding fighters
today, the well-padded Solomons
blames It on tender treatment of
fewer children.
"Families used to have six to
a dozen kids," Jack asserted. "And
let me tell you, .we were hard,
Today the kids are softer."
Beavers Beaten
Again, in Close
Coast Loop Tilt
Bv Hal Wood
(United Prow Sporta Writer)
San Francisco, March 31 LP) It
could be that the hitters aren't
going to make chumps out of the
Pacific Coast league pitchers, aft
er all.
The moundsmen started tossing
a few curves at the sluggers last
night and the result, was some
fair-to.middlin' baseball games
around the circuit.
Also, two teams. San Diego and
Los Angeles, remained undefeat
ed and with at least a one-game
bulge over each . of the other
teams in the loop..
The Padres ran up their third
straight win over the San Fran
cisco Seals, who now have lost 14
In a row in Pacific Coast league
competition, including 11 at the
end of the 1949 season. The
score was 5-0, a four-hit master
piece by rookie Roy Welmaker,
with an assist from Dick Barrett
in the ninth.
Anffcta Win
The Angels stayed ; right with
the Padres by edging Sacramento,
6-5; Hollywood beat Portland, and
Seattle trimmed Oakland, each
by 5-4 scores.
Actually, it was an evening of
well-played ball games.
There were only 34 runs scored
all evening, and only four errors
in the four games. This compares
with 66 runs and 17 errors on
opening night and is an indi
cation that the opening day Jitters
have been left behind by most
of the boys.
Welmaker, a colored lad. fanned
the first three Seals he faced at
San Diego to give, an Indication
of things to come. The big bats
of Jack Graham,-Harvey Storey
and Max West provided the offen
sive margin, and two runs in the
first and the insurance three

40-Minute
Basketball
Rule Scrapped
New York, March 31 UP) The
college basketball coaches held
their "funeral" for the two-mln
ute rule today, but the fellows
celebrating far outnumbered the
mourners.
The men who built some of the
top court machines of the recent
season were Jubilant today that
the rule which forbade waiving
free throws In the final two min.
utes has been scrapped by the
national rules committee in favor
of a "40-minute game."
Here's what some of the coach
es, who are staying here for the
east-west all-star game tomorrow,
had to say about the change and
about basketball's future:
Ed Hickey, St. Louis universi
ty "The return of the 40-minute
game Is the salvation of basket
ball. There was no justification
for playing the game one way for
38 minutes and then switching to
an entirely new set of rules for
the last two minutes."
Nat Holman, of "grand slam"
City College of New York "The
rules committee did a smart thing
to get rid of the two-minute rule.
It wasn't right and something had
to be done about it."
Pete Newell, San Francisco
"The new rules are a very logical
approach to the problems which
brought about the 'two-minute
disease.' We still may have to
add something in the. future to
curD excessive fouling, but the
new rules give us a faster game."
Stan Watts, Brigham Young .
"The return to the 40-minute
game will help basketball. The
team that is behind now has a
much better chance to win than
before.
Jack Gardiner, Kansas State
"I am glad to see us go back to a
40-minute game. The new rules
will correct the late substitution.
problem and make for a healthier
game."
Amory (Slats) Gill, coach of
Oregon State and of the west all-
stars, disagreed.
"The new rules will be popular
