NEW 'GREAT WALL
London-IUPD-Moscow Radio
reported Tuesday that Soviet
scientists had discovered a
"great wall of central Asia"
similar to the Great Wall of
China. The broadcast, heard
here, said it had been estab
lished that the wall was "built
over 2,000 years ago and ex
isted i . . on the territory of
present-day Uzbekistan, Ta
jikistan and Turkmenia."
the dedicatory event , in the
six million dollar structure
on which workmen are still
applying the f ,i n i s h i n g
touches.
Becerra is the second Mex
ican to try to lift Halimi's
title. Raul Raton Macias made
the first attempt Nov. 6,, 1957,
here in Los Angeles. Becerra
was on the same card and
suffered a crushing defeat-
knocked out in four rounds
by Dwight Hawkins, a defeat
he later reversed.
.Halimi, the 27-year-old
French-Alegerian of Jewish
ancestry, probably will try
to put on the same type of
fight against Becerra that he
did against Macias with the
hope for the same victorious
result. The bull-shouldered
champion shoots for points
with, a powerful body attack
and after he has weakened
his opponent sufficiently eith
er continues on for a decision
of 'then tries for a knockout.
Becerra, 23, on the other
hand, is a strong puncher
when he is fresh. He will be
shooting for a quick knockout
and his ability to go 15 rounds
is untested, never having gone
that route.
