Main St., 2nd Floor PHONE: SPring 3-5301 China May Compete In Olympics Philadelphia- (UPD -Chances of Nationalist China compet ing in the 1960 summer Olym pic games in Rome were given a boost today by Avery Brun dage, president of the Inter national Olympic Committee. Brundage, of Chicago, said here Sunday he will "recom mend and support" recogni tion of the Nationalist Chi nese as Olympic competitors under the name of "The Oympic Committee of the Re public of China." The statement by Brun dage came as something of a surprise in sports circles, for he has been criticized in va rious quarters ever since May 28 of this year when the ICC voted at its meeting in Munich to cease recognition of the Nationalists under the naem "China"., The IOC ruled that the Na tionalists do not control sports throughout China and should reapply for recognition under a name indicating they repre sented only Formosa. Goldman made recently while predicting, what his current protege, Canadian challenger Yvon Durelle, would do. to Moore when the .two meet in a title rematch at the Mon treal Forum July 29.' Gold man allegedly called Moore a bum in recalling how , "we (Goldman and his former pu pil Rocky Marciano) beat the bum." I have no fault to find with reminding me that I lost the fight but I demand that he make a public apology when he calls me a bum." said Moore. Secret Training "I know that a lot of the New York fight people call everybody a bum but I'm not from New York," he added. Moore, who just finished four days of secret training behind what his manager Jack Doc Kearns referred to as "the leather curtain," laughed in derision when ask ed to comment on other pre dictions by Goldman. The bespectacled little trainer disclosed recently that Durelle's new strategy would be to concentrate hitting Moore's arm during the early rounds to force the champion to drop his near impregnable guard. Postponement "That's been tried before," said Moore. "In fact, Mar ciano tried it and it didn't work." Moore, who got off the floor four times to knock out Durelle in the 11th round of their wild fight last Dec. 10 at the Forum, obtained a two weeks postponement for. the rematch when he came up with a stone bruise on his foot. It was widely reported that the elder statesman of the ring was having trouble paring down but Archie de nied it.
