Greene Stumping For State Unity In Boxing Groups Paterson, N.J. (IP) Commis sioner Abe J. Greene of the Na tional Boxing association is campaigning for unity among the state commissions to combat "sinister influences" in the fight game. Speaking at a joint meeting of East Paterson Rotary Clubs Monday, Greene did not name the "influences," but he said there were signs of a "covert plot" to wreck the NBA "the only true safeguard for box ing." Greene declared that commis sions are helpless in arranging fights selectively "because of the tight hold by one organization on the national television boxing shows."
