MIAMI, Fla., Feb. 34. (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.

The world champion New Tork
Giants, continuing their policy of get

training for the 1034 pennant race
today at least a full week in advance
of any of the 11 club using Florida

A dozen athletes, including the re

drilled for an hour at Flamingo park
and then went into a club house
"huddle" to listen to their leader's
first compalgn speech of the season
"We are getting down to buslnu
earlier than usual, because we have
a tough schedule ahead and I want
to be sure the whole team la abso
lutely in top shape from the flrat
game of the season on April 17.
"I honestly think our club will oe
better this year than last and that we
will win the pennant by a bigger
margin. That's how much confidence
I have In the outfit. I have never
seen a crowd so anxious to go. Not
even a threat to make him pay his
own expenses until the rest of tne
regulars report March 1 could keep
a guy like Blondy Ryan from coming
down here now. There's not a spark
of Jealousy or the least sign of a
swelled head in the whole squad."
Terry disclosed he is not counting
upon his number one backstop, Gus
Mancuso, being recovered sufficiently
from an attack of typhoid to stt
the season. Mancuso will be ordered
to take things easy when he reports

Terry heard the news of Casey
