Charles Faces Norkus Tonight NEW YORK (UP) Ezzard Charles will be the "question mark of the year" when he faces slugger Charley Norkus in Madison Square Garden tonight. What kind of a fighter is he now, at 33, after two beatings by heavy fisted Rocky Marciano and after five months of idleness? He'll provide the answer as he tries to start his fourth campaign to recapture the heavyweight crown. He and 26-year-old Norkus of Povt Washington, N.Y., are slat- dd for. 10 -rounds, nationally tele vised jand broadcast at 10 p.m EST. . Cincinnati's Ezzard is favored at 3-1 because the odds-makers be lieve he can salvage enough of his ormer speed, skill and punch to beat Norkus, who is also a prob lem man. Norkus has been a no torious in-and-outer although he seems to have settled to serious fighting now. Ex-champ Charles, ranked third among current heavyweight con tenders, -will start yelling for an other title shot if lie stops Norkus or beats the ex-Marine impressive ly. Similarly, Norkus ranked ninth will start shouting for a challengers' fight with top contend er Nino Valdcs If he defeats Ez zard.. It will be Ezzaid's first fight since last Sept. 17, when he was stopped in the eighth round by champion Marciano. That was Charles' third attempt to win back the crown. Tonight he faces a younger, stronger man whose weaving, slug ging style is somewhat similar to Marciano's. Norkus has knocked out 16 of his 38" opponents. But he lacks Rocky's stamina and rug gedncss. He was stopped five times while losing 12 bouts. Teams Can Wrap Up Hoop Titles Beavers Going After Stadium PORTLAND (UP) Joe Ziegler, general manager of the Portland Beavers, said yesterday the Pa cific Coast League baseball team was prepared to compete with any other group to rent Multnomah stadium during the coming season. Ziegler said the Beaver club had made an "exploratory" offer to the stadium management, and that while the offer was not very high, the club was "prepared to talk figures that they 11 listen to." The Bevo general manager said he was highly impressed with the stadium as a site for baseball. He said its size and location were favorable, and cited its improved facilities for fans. He said he was confident the stadium could be altered to re ceive baseball at a cost under $50,000. One wi nwould cinch tie and two would give th'e Coyotes the tile.
