DOWN AND OUT! Harold Johiison still has his right cocked as he watches Paul An
drews crumple to the canvas in the sixth round of their light-heavyweight match in
New York's Madison Square Garden. Andrews, Joe Louis' protege, was still on the can
vas long after being counted out. Johnson was an 11-5 underdog but had won four of
the first five rounds on all three judges scorecards and w?s apparently on his way to
an easy victory when he unleashed that lethal right.
Salary Satisfies
Mickey Mantle
By UNITED PRESS
. Mickey Mantle, the tight-lipped
Yankee center fielder who
ordinarily doesn't have much to
say, loosened up -sufficiently to
day to express satisfaction with
salary terms and predicts that
he will enjoy his "best season
yet" in 1955.
The blond, 23-year-old Mantle,
who signed through the com
bined .efforts of Yankee Scout
Tom Greenwade and Assistant
General Manager Bill DeWitt,
reportedly received a $3,000 in
crease which boosts his .salary
into the $20,000-$25,000 bracket.-

Bobo Olson
Goes Against
Tiger Jones
Chicago (U.R) Middleweight
champion Carl (Bobo) Olson's
non-title battle against Ralph
(Tiger) Jones tonight shaped up
to a 30-minute head-bumping
spectacle from a pair of scrap
pers who like to brawl in close
quarters.
Their meeting will be the fea
ture television show at 10 p.m.
(EST). Olson, who expected to
weigh 166 pounds, the heaviest
he ever has entered ' the ring,
was an . 8 to 1 favorite while
bookmakers offered Jone's sup
porters only 5 to 1. Jones ex
pected to weigh barely over the
160 pound middleweight limit.
To Go All Out
" Both fighters promised all-out
warfare, and Jones was confi
dent that he could win over the
10-round non-title distance to ad
vance into a title shot over 15
rounds at some date in the near
future. ; ' ' '
While Jones was hoping for a
title 'chance, Olson regarded the
fight as somewhat an experi
ment to determine how effective
he might be at the heavier
weight. .
Lacking a solid challenger for
the middleweight crown, both
Olson and his manager, Sid Fla
herty, have been contemplating
aiming for . a bout with light
heavyweight champion Archie
Moore or the former 175 pound
titleholder, Joey Maxim.
