(AP) Slow ly but surely the Impression Is spreading about the Miami play ground that there's to be a world heavyweight championship fight on Wednesday night with Prlmo ear ners, the Genoa giant, defending his title against little Tommy Lough ran. The impression of the experts who have been watching both train Is that Lough ran 's chances have been decidedly underestimated and Car nera'a tremendous physical advan tages overemphasized. The mammoth Italian hasn't looked good at all In his workouts. Just the same, the supposed In vincibility of the man mountain who fell on Jack Sharkey last summer and removed him from the heavy weight title In six rounds Is such that Camera remains a favorite at 2ft to 3 to 1. Both will finish heavy training to morrow. From the garden standpoints, the sale of top-priced $20 tickets total ing 2000 In number, has offered an encouraging sign. Almost all have been dlsosed of, assuring a start of almost $40,000 In the box office. ' LIST SHY Ele Point 9nds Prospect Seconds Gallup F Ooode P. Andre F..... ...J). Orth Lehigh ....... C . ......
