Marciano Wary Of Challenger By SCOTT BAILIE Vnitc'il Press Sports Writer CALISTOGA, Calif., (UP) Rocky Marciano, who speaks soft ly and carries a bomb in each hand, acts like a worried novice when asked how long he will take to deck Britain's Don Cockell in their May 1G world heavyweight title bout at Kezar Stadium. "All I can say is I'll be battling all the way to defend my title," smiles The Rock as he sits on his bed and pops a ripe olive into his mouth. "I've never seen Cockell, not eyen in the movies. So it could be tough." "We got movies being shipped up here now from England." Manager Al Weill announces from a corner where he sits like an aged kewpie doll. "But it sure took long enough for us to locate any. I think Cockell's outfit was holding out on us." "I understand that Cockell is a real old time fighter." Marciano goes on in his genteel Massachu setts accent. "He spars without a mouthpiece or head guard so I can tell right there he is tough. In fact, I think Cockell may surprise a lot of people." Murciano, undefeated in 47 pro fessional fights and victor in 41 oy knockouts, faces six more weeks of heavy training up here in the California wine country. Only a light scar remains near the tip of Marciano's now famous proboscis but Rocky agrees that he never is sure when it might give him trouble again. NOT THAT DESPERATE KENDALLV1LLE, Ind.

April 4, 1955 American Swim Hopes Go Up NEW HAVEN, Conn. (L'Pl-De- spite two title triumphs and one world record by foreign stars, America's hopes of dominating the swimming competition in the 1906 Olympics appeared bright today as a result of the National AAU in door championships. U.S. uthletes turned in four per formances that bettered world rec ords, although only two of them probably will be recognized. The foreign victors were Jack Wardrop of Mother-Well, Scotland, i University of Michigan student .vho smashed the world's record for the 400-yard individual medley, ind Eulalio Rios of Mexico, who ;et a meet record of 2:30.2 for '.he mo-yard butterfly. These performances wprp over shadowed by American stars Ford Komw. Bob Gawboy, Al Wiggins, and tlie North Carolina State med ley relay team all oi whom bet tered existing world standards. Konno, the bril'iant Hawaiian who stars for Ohio Statp, was the most sensational performer of the hree-day tournament. He set a new world's record of :04.7 in winning the 220-yard free style, thus-gaining revenge on War drop who had beaten him three times during the season, and miss ing another world's record by just a tenth of a second as hp won the 1 10-yard freestyle in 4:28.2. Gawboy, a Minnesota sopho more, cantured the 220-yard breast stroke in 2:38.0, better than the existing world's record of 2-38.8 set last year by Knud Gleie of Denmark. Wiggins and the North Carolina State relay team both turned In better than record performances that won't appear in the world books. Wiggins raced against the clock in a special exhibition 100 meter butterfly race and bettered the mark with a time of 1:01.5. The North Carolina State squad cracked the world mark in the 400 yard mpdley relay by clocking 3:51.5. This is 'better than the exist ing record of 3:52, but an Ohio State team has a 3:48 performance awaiting official recognition. Weekend Survey Of Deer Made NEW BRIDGE, Ore.

Some 120 members of the state game commission, the U. S. For est Service, the Bureau of Land Management, Oregon wildlife fed eration and other groups took to the range around Powder river and Eagle creek valleys where on estimated 3000 to 5000 animals have gathered. The group estimated that from 100 to 300 deer had died on the range this winter. Proposals have already been of fered by the group to control in creasing deer herds, produce more brush-type forage on the lowland slopes, and to increase multiple deer-livestock use of the winter range. 1 Game commission officials said that population control would prob ably include a hunting season for either sex this fall. The hungry animals have al ready begun their migration back toward the forests of the Wallowa mountains, following the melting snow line to better feedinf grounds. Tonite and Tues.
