Olson, Turpin Slate Championship Bout For Oct. 21 at Madison Square Garden San Francisco (U.B Bobo Olson's manager said today he was "very well pleased" with the terms of a world middle weight title fight between Olson ard Randy Turpin. Manager Sid Flaherty said the inclusion of a "no return bout" clause meant a "major victory foi us." Pleased With Deal "I'm very pleased with the deal," Flaherty said. "I didn't tiiink English promoter Jack Solomons would give in, but we finally won out." It was announced in New York yesterday that Turpin, European middleweight champ, had agreed to a 15-round title fight against Olson Oct. 21. The bout will be held in Madison Square Garden. The agreement climaxed two months of wrangling over where the bout should be held and whether there would be a return match. Flaherty wanted the fight in San Francisco and in sisted on only one bout. Fighter First Consideration "I'm very disappointed that we couldn't stage the fight in San Francisco." he said. "But my first consideration is to my fighter and now if Bobo wins he's got the title, period. "If we went to England with the championship we wouldn't come back with it." Flaherty said it was the no return bout clause that decided ' " in favor of the New York e're gambling on the no re tmn bout clause," Flaherty said. "It s all or nothing."

Iac.HaRS9cd.Gaaa, New York U.B All God's chillun got trouble, but you can't blame Monte Irvin if he feels that he has more than his share. Monte is the powerful, soft spoken fellow who led the miracle Giants of 1951 to the National base ball league pennant. He didn't get the credit then that he should have, and hasn't since. It seems that it always has been that way with Monte. Back in the days of his youth, his dreams always war of being a big star in the major leagues. Then, when he had become one of the lop player in the Negro leagues, he was passed over, year aft er discouraging year as oth ers with less talent than he were called up under the big top. After three years of waiting he finally earned a long awaited chance with the Giants. A year later he was a regular and in 1951 he was the winning sparkplug. He led the National league in in runs batted in, hitting .312, and in the series batted a re sounding .458. Against Allie Reynolds in the classic, he smashed four hits and daringly stole home. J But Monte wasn't recognized as the most valuable player. The vote had been taken before the season's end and the honor went to Roy Campenella. The next spring, in an April, exhibition game, Monte slid into third base and shattered his right ankle. Manager Leo Durocher standing in his room beside the ether befogged Monte, worriedly asked the doctors what were Monte's chances. "He won't play this year," one said. "Don't worry skipper," Irvin said thorugh his private haze. 'I'll be back this year. I've got good bones and I heal quick." He was back i late July, and still hobbling, played 46 games before season's end, and hit an amazing .310 in the bargain. That ankle still bothers him, physically and in action, but as of Sunday the leader in the Na tional league batting race with a .339 average was Irvin. Then misfortune steuck again. Monte crashed into Cardinal catcher Del Riie at the plate and suffered a sprain of that still tender ankle. A player needs 400 times at bat to win the hitting title. Monte has been up 395 times, That means he needs five more appearances at the plate. He'll get them, assuredly, but this new injury rould be the means of lowering his average below the top. .

D. Carroll Jr., discussed the problem in Public Manage ment, monthly journal of the In-, ternational City Managers' as sociation. Carroll, director of the De troit Metropolitan Area study, said city officials must encour age the intensive use of existing commercial sites, and must make it easier for traffic and people to move within 'the downtown business districts. Two major trends, increased automobile registrations and the postwar boom in suburban dev elopment, have magnified the problems of the central business district, Carroll said. - He said a study at Flint, Mich, showed that travel by automo bile diminishes as cities increase in size, due to traffic congestion and travel distances. But he said despite these fac tors, "the larger the city the greater the parking problem." The study of Flint showed a "steady, relative decline in real property values in the central business district, especially in land values," Carroll said.
