DeMarco
Foe Tonight
Of Moyer
Boston -(UPD Young Denny
Moyer of Portland, Ore., meets
former champion Tony De-
Marco of Boston tonight in a
10-round welterweight bout at
The Garden.
Moyer, "a 20-year-old who
has lost only once during his
brief but sparkling pro career;
probably will go into the ring
as a 10-8 favorite to whip the
one-time champ.
De Marco, now 23, has been
inactive lately and hasn't
fought anyone of note since he
was knocked out by Virgil
Akins here two years ago.
The north end brawler held
the welterweight crown for
70 days in 1955, winning it
from Johnny Saxton . but los
ing it to Carmen Basilio.
Moyer, a stylish lad with
out much of a punch, has lost
only to welterweight cham
pion Don Jordan since turning
pro less than two years ago.

At Philadelphia

Connie Mack and former vice
president of the Philadelphia
Athletics, died at suburban
Bryn Mawr hospital today af
ter suffering a heart attack
at his home.
Mack, 71, an official of the
club when it was sold fo
Kansas City, was stricken at
his home. Earlier, he had
been out to dinner with mem
bers of his family.
Despite an all - day snow
Tuesday, many of the skiers
and skaters got outdoors for
some limbering work and
they planned to do it again
today.
Snowfall which started at
noon Monday, when a rain
which threatened to wash out
the winter Olympic Games
turned to snow, reached a
depth of 30 inches early to
day, and the forecast was for
a total of 33 inches before the
storm abates. At times it was
a full-fledged blizzard with
high winds and zero visibility,
and then it would 'slacken to
a gentle fall. But the snow
never stopped.
Satisfactory practice was
impossible. The ski-jump was
closed completely and so was
the slalom ski course. Down
hill . and . slalom skiers from
several nations put on skis
and went through the lightest
of training on Papoose Peak.

Rickey Rejects
Yank Stadium
New York (UPD Branch
Rickey made it clear today
that the Continental league
wants absolutely no part of
Yankee stadium.
Ruling out any possibility
that the New York team in
the Continental league might
share occupancy of the Yan
kee stadium with the Yan
kees, the 78-year-old Rickey
said his league did not wish
to become "part of something
antiquated."
Rickey is hopeful that the
New York team in the Con
tinental league will play its
home games in a proposed
new ball park in Flushing
Meadow, which would seat
55,000 fans.
