Logart After Win
By MURRAY ROSE
NEW YORK ffl Cuban Isaac
( Kid i Logart's campaign for a ti
tle shot at welterweight champion
Carmen Basilio had the support
of Gil Turner today.
The backing came after the
fast-punching 23-year-old invader
racked up his second straight un
animous decision over aggressive
Gil in a rousing 10-round tele
vised scrap at Madison Square
Garden last night. ,
Turner, tired from another one
of his all-out. full steam ahead
thrillers, didn't have enough left
in the final three rounds, how
ever, and Logart swept to the
front for keeps with his raking
left hooks to the body and head.
Ranked Second
It was Logart's 12th win In his
last 13 starts for a 48-6-5 rec
ord. The kid is ranked second to
ex-champion Tony DeMarco.
"That $50,000 offer to Basilio for
a title fight still goes," said Lo
gart's manager, Eddie Mafuz.
DeMarco Big
Favorite in
Garden Scrap
BOSTON (UP)-Former welter
weight king Tony DeMarco ruled
a top-heavy favorite today to whip
young lightweight Larry Board
man in their 10-round, 146 -pound
limit at the Garden tonight.
In fact, the betting was that the
Boston strong boy would tag
Boardman with the first knockout
of his career by the fifth or sixth
round. Prices generally ranged
from 2-1 to 4-1 on the converted
southpaw who held the welter title
for exactly 69 days two years ago.
DeMarco was expected to pare
down easily to 146 by the weigh-ing-in
ceremonies, though there
was some conjecture whether his
strength might be slightly dimin
ished. Boardman, the Marlboro.
Conn., lad who looked like a real
"comer" last year before being
stopped by Orlando Zulueta, fig
ured to weigh 143li.
DeMarco is the No. 1 welter
weight contender behind Carmen
, Basilio. Boardman, managed by
his father, Sam, holds the No. 3
lightweight contender ranking.

(Special to the Capital Journal)
OREGON COLLEGE OF EDU
CATION, Monmouth OCE's 1957
track and field squad was to kick
off the season at Salem Saturday
afternoon by participating in the
seventh annual Willamette Relays
at McCulIoch Stadium.
The Wolves, never strong scor
ers in the Willamette event, nev
ertheless look forward to the re
lays with enthusiasm. Under ,
coach Bill McArthur the Wolfpack j
is expected to pick up points in :
the middle distance events and
pole vault and may have a few
surprises in other events.
Mac la Back
McArthur, back at the helm of
the track squad after a one-year
absence, has 10 lettermen back
from the 1956 squad. Also back is
Harrison Bryant, a junior pole
vaulter from Myrtle Creek who
tied for third in that event at the
NAIA meet in Abilene, Texas, two
yearj ago. Bryant is expected to
score in the Willamette Relays
in his favorite event.
McArthur looks for Bryant,
Clark Lund, Larry Gower, Norm
Berreman and Erv Garrison to
set new school records this year.
Lund in the 440, Gower in the 880,
Berreman in the mile and Garri
son in the javelin, although Garri
son s success may depend upon
the success of a knee operation
which he underwent four weeks
ago. ,
Duals Open April 9
John Carpenter should also be a
valuable point getter for the
Wolves in the broadjump and
sprints. Ralph Bittner should also
score in the shotput event. Cece
Miller will give the Wolves a con
sistent performer in the mile and
two-mile events. Freshman Eldon
Nass should also garner points in
the distance runs.
McArthur says his squad has
good spirit and with the Willam

"But I don't think stock car
racing is at all dangerous," he

"Walt was killed because he

Didn't think he had to. The same
type of accident could happen 100

seriously injured if they were

The Montreal Canadiens are

the New York Rangers tonight;
and then "cake walk" into the fi

League playoffs.
The Canadiens were being quot
ed as one-and-a-half to two-goal
favorites in tonight's game and at
8-1 picks to win the best-of-seven
series. The Rangers have won
only two games at the Montreal
Forum in the last two years both
regular-season and playoff compe

A Ranger victory Thursday
squared the series at one game
each but all the remaining games
of the series are scheduled at
Montreal. The Detroit Red Wings

Sitting It Out
Commission Seeks to Prove
Fighter Ralph Dupas Is Negro
NEW ORLEANS (UP) The
Louisiana Boxing Commission
may let itself in for a libel suit
or criminal action for violating
the state's segregation law Tues
day night when it presumably will
try to prove Ralph Dupas, the na
tion's sixth ranking lightweight
boxer, is a Negro.
Dupas' boxing career in Louisi
ana was put in jeopardy Friday
when the commission moved to
cancel his April 8 bout here with
Vince Martinez of Paterson, N.J.,
and attempted to show that Du
pas is a Negro.
Louisiana law forbids racially
mixed athletic events. If the com
mission declares Dupas a Negro,
it may have to show proof in a
libel suit. Dupas claims he is
white. He fought two white fight
ers in New Orleans in the last 60
days. He has been accepted as a
white person since he lived in
