Dean, who tips the scales at 385 pounds, also is known for his feats of strengtht. His special ty is engaging a horse in a tug-of- war and he is said never to have lost. His pet maneuver in the ring is to get his opponent grog- Celtics Select Jim Loscutoff New York OJ.R Tom Gola, La Salle's three-time All Ameri can, was chosen by the Philadel phia Warriors yesterday as the No. 1 selection in the National Basketball Association annual draft. The New York Knickerbock ers selected Ken Sears of Santa Clara. Jim Loscutoff of Oregon was picked by the Boston Cel tics. In the second round New York took Jerry Mullen of San Fran cisco.

Dean dubs the fall producer a "belly flop." Promoter Mack Lillard came up with the rematch when Hus sane demanded it, claiming he should not have been disqual ified last week when he kicked Dean out of the ring and wouldn't let him return. A match which should rival the Dean-Hussane fracas for fan interest pits Shirley Winters against Gerry Hunter in a return scrap. Miss Winters, who held the blonde bombshell to a draw two weeks ago, asked for a re turn date to prove she can take the measure of the Springfield terror. "Cyclone" Cobb has a date with Larry Presnell, who has been handling the referee assign ments in recent weeks, in the 8:30 p.m. opener. Arena doors will open at 7:30. Lillard said Buck Davidson will referee all matches. Sugar Robinson Favored in Bout Milwaukee, Wis. (U.R) Sugar Ray Robinson was favored to de feat Wisconsin middleweight champion Ted OUa tonight when the two meet in a 10-round box ing match here. Robinson, the former middle weight champion, said he would file for reinstatement of his crown if he 'defeated OUa. Robinson contended middle weight champion Carl (Bobo) Olso was casting his lot in Che light heavyweight division. He said the middleweight champion ship reverted to him in such case under Marquis of Queensberry rules. Robinson, who is attempting a comeback after three years ab sence from the ring, said he never actually gave up his title, He left the ring after losing a light heavyweight championship fight to Joey Maxim June 25, 1952, on a knockout in the 14th round. MedfordTribune x SIPdDmTS Eobo Bison EDecBsBve Winner Over Maxim San Francisco (U.R) Carl (Bobo) Olson, a Li'l David with a mighty slingshot in each hand, crashed into the light heavy weight ranks for .keeps today in the wake of pounding out a brutally decisive ten-round de cision over Joey Maxim at the Cow Palace. "Bobo has proved that he can handle the big fellows and we'll go for anybody even Rocky Marciano if the price is right," Manager Sir Flaherty said after Wednesday night's slaughter. The bald ruler of the middle weight ranks weighed 169 pounds for the non-title nationally-televised fight, while Max im, former world light heavy weight champion, had to sweat to get down to 175 or forfeit $10, 000. Maxim Floored Twice Olson had Maxim on the fringes of a knockout in the sec ond and ninth rounds when he floored him with vicious combi nations to the head. But Pal Joey always managed to clamber up and keep trying to land his stiff left jabs and hooks. Judge Jack Downey voted the fight to Olson 60-50, Judge John ny Bassanelli 62-48 and Referee Ray Flores 59V to, 50V.

Christi'nson 471 Press saw it Olson 62 V, Maxim 4712. Olson dropped the former light heavyweight king for two counts of eight during the battle, leaving Josey so confused that he said in the dressing room after wards that he thought he had gone down three times. Olson's Streak Unbroken The busy Bobo-man smashed Maxim down the first time with an overhand right to the jaw which he bounced off Joey as if striking him with a dagger. Another right started Maxim down in the ninth and Bobo kept him going canvasward with a left smash to the face. It was Olson's 21st straight tri umph since Ray Robinson out pointed him in a middleweight title scrap three years ago. Olson's punches were strictly of the TNT variety and came with amazing rapidity as he con stantly squared his shoulders, weaved in, busied, himself on Pal Joey's mid-section, then sud denly exploded one-twos to the face.
