Eddie Dixon Will Risk Police Job New York -fliPD- Patrolman Eddie Dixon has decided to box in one of this week's two nationally televised middle weight fights even though it means risking his job on the Newark, N.J., police force. Matchmaker Jack Barrett of the International Boxing club, announced: "Dixon de initely will fight Gene (Ace) Armstrong at Madison Square Garden, Friday night. He told me that positively." Their 10-rounder will be televised and broadcast na tionally by NBC. The other middleweight 10-rounder at the Chicago Stadium, Wednesday night, brings together Holly Mims of Washington, D.C. and Bobby Boyd of Chicago for their third meeting. It will be televised by ABC. Dixon, a 25-year-old night foot patrolman, was uncer tain last week whether he would go through with Fri day's Garden fight against unbeaten Armstrong of Eliza beth, N.J., because of a warn ing from Joseph F. Weldon, Newark's police director. Dixon : Warned Weldon had cautioned the fighting cop that it was against department regula tions for a Newark policeman to engage in outside business, and he would be violating the regulations if he fought for money. That was unwelcome news to Dixon, who has been a pro fessional fighter five years and a policeman nine months. Although he had 20 bouts, Friday's match will be his first TV engagement. It would bring him and Manager Bobby Nelson $4, 000 from TV-radio and per haps another $1,000 from the gate. As the father of two daughters, he could use the money, since his patrolman's salary approximates $4,600 a year. . Dixon, who scored five knockouts while winning 14 of his 20 bouts, is a '2-1 un derdog against speedy Arm strong, who registered 15 straight professional victories, although only one knockout. Armstrong is ranked ninth among contenders. Dixon is unrated. For Wednesday's Chicago fight, fourth-rated Mims and unranked Boyd are quoted at "even money." Boyd out pointed Mims in April, 1956, and held him to a draw last Jan. 22. The week's boxing sched ule includes: Tuesday: Richmond. Calif. Art Ramponi vs. Jimmy Feaster. De troit Wilfie Greaves vs. Otis Woodard. Wednesday: Chicago Stadium Holly Mims vs. Bobby Boyd TV. Stockton. Calif. Redtop Davis vs. Tony Dupas. Thursday: Los Angeles Joe Medel vs. Boots Monroe.
