New York U.R) A Rocky
Marciano who "isn't taking any
chances" and a grim, bitterly de
termined Ro
land LaStarza
today both
shrugged off
the 3 to 1 odds
favoring the
h eavyweight
champion for
their title fight
f at the Polo
I Grounds, Sept.
Both fighters
Oscar Fsaley are doing more
than the accepted share of think
ing for men who earn their liv
ing with their fists. And the
surprising outcome of their men
tal labors is that Marciano is
approaching this one with an
unexpected amount of caution
while LaStarza, long regarded
as a reluctant tiger, sounds al
most scornful of the champ.
If these are lasting attitudes,
it could develop into quite a
fight.
"There's no doubt in my
mind but what this could be
the toughest fight of my ca
reer, Marciano Insisted from
Us training camp.
Even tougher than his first
fight with Jersey Joe Walcott.
when, trailing on points, he
caught the ancient warrior
with a winning knockout
punch in the 13th round?
"Yes. Marciano asserted,
"even tougher than that La
Starza has a lot of courage, he's
almost three years younger than
I am, and, while he's a good
boxer, he can punch, too. On
top of that, he's bitter."
The impatient LaStarza, -working
hard at his camp in Green
wood Lake, N. Y., said flatty
Governors Go '
On Fishing Trip
After Conference
Seattle U.R) About 20
governors relaxed today after
their 45th annual conference by
angling for salmon with Gov.
Arthur B. Langlie of Washing
ton. The rest of the 43 governors
who attended the conference that
ended here yesterday headed
for home.
Langlie's party was to fish
off West port. Wash.
Stronger Governments
Final business sessions yester
day saw the governors go on
record for stronger state gov
ernments. The states rights res
olution which the governors
passed yesterday was given
strong impetus Tuesday when
President Eisenhower told the
Gasoline Price Hikes
Under Investigation
Washington flJ.R) The Jus
tice Department is looking into
the recent wave of gasoline re
tail price hikes for possible viola
tions of federal anti-trust laws,
it was disclosed today.
The department said in a let
ter to Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey,
(D-Minn.), that it is "collecting
and studying all information
obtainable with a view of deter
mining whether collusive action
among the oil companies can be
established."
Humphrey had written to the
department about complaints of
Minnesota gasoline jobbers and
consumers that the price in
creases were "unwarranted."
and with a quiet confidence:
"I'm sure I can lick him. He's
no better as a fighter than he
was in 1950. What's so great
about Marciano?"
The crux of the bout. In
which there eventually will be
a great piay on we emitting
animosity between the two
men, concerns the bitterness
which developed when Mar
ciano's camp snubbed a re
turn bout agreement three and
a half years ago.
At that time, Marciano and
LaStarza both were angling for
a shot at the heavyweight crown.
Rocky won a split and except
ionally close 10 round decision
and then, as he was steered to
ward a title shot, treated La
Starza as if he had the measles.
Rocky went on to win the
crown and LaStarza, lost in the
backwash became so discour
aged that at one point he threat-e-ied
to quit the ring.
"You can't blame Marciano
for ducking me." LaStarza said,
but you can, and I do, blame
him for not living up to the
terms of our agreement for a re
turn bout I've been waiting
since March, 1950 for this fight
and. I'm not going to blow this
chance."
Empty Life Rafts
Dash Survival
Hopes for Airmen
London (U.R) The sighting
of two apparently empty life
rafts in the stormy North At
lantic dashed hopes today that
more than four persons survived
Wednesday's crash of a RB-36
reconnaissance bomber carrying
23 passengers and crew.
The crew of an American B-36
search, plane reported that there
vas "no sign of life" on the in
flated yellow rafts sighted 600
miles from the crash scene.
Survivors Enroute
Four survivors of the 23 man
crew that ditched the burning
plane were en route to Canada
and England aboard British res
cue vessels. Five bodies were
recovered from the sea.
The master of the British
freighter Man Chester Pioneer
said he was sailing for Montreal,
where he would land the three
men he saved from the sea.
Another survivor was sche
duled to arrive at Britain's Man
chester ship canal today aboard
the Manchester Skipper.
Suffering From Shock
Capt A. Starmer of the Man
chester Pioneer said all three
men aboard his vessel had been
put to bed suffering from shock.
They were:
Airman 1st class Harold Park
er, 22, Quincy, Calif.; Ma).
George B. Parkes, 37, Vacaville,
Calif., and S-Sgt. Charles De
Haven, 24, Stroudsburg, Pa.
Aboard the Manchester Ship
per was S-Sgt. Roy Speer of
Bennington, Okla.
Routine search operations
continued for the missing men,
but there was little hope they
survived.
