They were the Odell Firemen,
ousted, 10-2, by Albany's de

game to give Banks a
3-1 victory over Archer Blower

Hudson, who scored his third

The opponents' lone run came in
the opening inning, when Hud
son walked his opposing pitcher
and then committed an error on
an attempted sacrifice bunt.

ward J. Neil memorial plaque
for his contribution to box
ing. It was the year In which
he stopped Billy Fox in 10
rounds in his fourth title de
fense. And it was the year
In which he stopped Melio Bet
tlna's comeback in one round
and. twice beat heavyweight
Taml Mauriello.
Although Gus won the light
heavy crown in 1941 when he
beat Anton Christoforidis,
hitch in the Coast Guard and
the weight bugaboo forced him
to limit his campaign among the
light heavies. Each time he put
his title on the line he was forced
to scale down to the 175-pound
limit.
"I weigh 186 pounds now,'
says Lesnevich, "and will come
in around 180 for the Charles
fight. I fight best at that
weight. Making 175 pounds
was too much."
An example of how much en
ergy Lesnevich drained out of
his system by making weight is
best exemplified by the words
of his chubby manager, Joe
Vella.
"The day he tost to Freddie
Mills in London Gus said he
weighed 175 pounds but he
hid the scales on us," says
Vella. "When I finally got to
weigh him he was 176 'A- He
had to walk around Hyde
Park for an hour and it was
London's hottest day in 45
years. Ask Freddie Flerro,
his trainer."
"He walked around Hyde
Park for two hours," said Fler
ro. "I know. I walked with
him."
"And that fight in Cincinnati
with Joe Maxim for which we
got $35,000 and not $50,000,
Gus walked six hours," says
Vella. "Making the weight has
taken too much out of him He's
through with the light heavy
weights."
For both the Mills and Maxim
bouts, Lesnevich weighed in of
ficially at 174y4. For his last
fight with Mauriello he scaled
180 '4 because his title was not
at stake. Lesnevich stopped
Mauriello in seven rounds in the
Garden.
Lesnevich oozes confidence
as he goes through his paces
at Ehsan's training camp, a
spot once known as Madame
Beys, where such fighters as
Max Schmeling, Primo Car
nera, Mickey Walker and
Tony Galento prepared for
title bouts.
"I've seen Charles fight three
times," says Gus. "I don't think
he punches too hard but he
punches fast. I hit harder,
If opportunity knocks III go
after it. At least you can say
it'll be a good fight because we
both like to fight. I don't be
lieve in hitting and running.
I like to force the fighting.

outside of that I think it's a
good match."
So does the International Box
ing club. It will be its 'first
attraction in the big city.
Nobody connected with the
fight appears worried over Cin
cinnati Promoter Sam Becker's
threatened court action. Beck
er lost $40,000 on the Maxim
Lesnevich bout and both agreed
to a return fight in Cincinnati
on September 19.
"We had to sign to get our
dough from Becker," says Vella.
The coming bout should
clear up the situation one way
or another. If Lesnevich wins
he could go back to Cincin
nati for a non-title bout. If
he loses to Charles it Is doubt
ful that Promoter Becker
would care to take another
gamble.
