Sugar Ray's Handlers Say Fight Delay Hurts Maxim NEW YORK (UP) Sugar Ray Robinson's handlers believe light heavyweight champion Joey Maxim "has already lost" Wednesday night's postponed fight because of weight careless ness. Manager George Gainford said Tuesday, "Maxim is definitely a beaten man because of his fail ure to work out yesterday after the postponement announce ment." Weak As Cat Gainford explained that Cleve land Joey would be "weak as' a cat" if he pared down to the re quired 175 pounds for Wednes day's second weigh-in. Had he gone through six or seven rounds of gymnasium work Monday, "his weight wouldn't have got the Jump on him." Maxim registered 174 34 pounds at Monday's weigh-in be fore rain washed out their Yan kee Stadium title fight. He was Just a quarter-pound under the limit after days of careful aim ing at the 175-pound target. Gainford estimated that Joey had added at least four pounds by Tuesday morning. Odds Favor Robinson Apparently the odds-makers shared somewhat in Gainford's belief, for they installed middle weight champion Robinson the favorite at 7-5.

Tuesday, June 24, 1951 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN Youthful War Hero No. 1 Threat To Grab PGA 1952 Championship Louisville, Ky. (U.R) They play the semi-finals of the PGA golf championship Tuesday and three guys who have been there before are casting anxious glances at a cocky young war hero who never knows when he's licked. Bob Hamilton, the 1944 cham pion from Evansville, Ind., and Chick Harbert, the 1947 runner up from Northville, Mich., meet in one semi-final. And in the other it is little Jim Turnesa of Briarcliff Manor, N.Y., the 1942 runner-up, against the upsetting youngster of the field three-time Purple Heart winner Ted Kroll of New Hart ford, N.Y. Kroll, a rising tournament star whose chief victory to date was in the San Diego open last win ter, awed the veterans Monday as he battled back on the 36th and final hole to square match with favored Cary Mid fllecoff and then wiped out the Memphis dentist on the second "sudden death" extra hole. And in that whole, gasping gallery, scorched by a blistering sun, and that tense run to the wire, Kroll was the most unper turbed of the lot. He had seen it tougher, once when he was wounded at Anzio Beach and twice again as he was hit during those grim battles in the muddy mountains. TV PERMIT ASKED Portland (U.R) A New Ro chelle, N.

School Housing Business Rapped Portland (UP) A pro posal for the state of Oregon to go into the fraternity and soror ity business at the University of Oregon came under fire by a la bor leader Tuesday. James T. Marr, secretary of the Oregon State Federation of Labor, said such projects should wait until a four-year state col lege is provided for Portland. Marr's remarks followed a recent proposal to the State Board of Higher Education by Dr. Harry Ncwburn. president of the Uni versity of Oregon, that the state underwrite the houses and then rent or lease them to living organizations. Marr said, "It is tlma that someone officially connected with the state system of higher education speak up to say that the most pressing need is a state-operated four-year college for the Portland area."
