The former Brookline, Mass. fireman announced in New York Tuesday that he was calling It quits as a boxer lor the second time in his ca reeronly tnis time it was for keeps. Ponder, a slender, dark- nairea man whose craggy nose gives the only hint of his profession, first retired from boxing some 12 years ago when brittle hands seeming ly cut short his career almost before it had begun. But sur gery corrected his hands and he went on to win 40 of 48 professional bouts, which in cluded two draws. Good Physical Ship The 32-year-old Pender said that the inability of promoters to secure television for the proposed June 1 Boston Gar den bout with Joey Giardello ana tile apparent impossibil ity oi luring Tiger into a match for the undisputed world title led him to quit. His trainers, Al Lacy, said Pender was in "wonderful physical condition and able to beat Joey Giardello or Dick Tiger unquestionably." But Pender said that this time his retirement was definite." Pender, married and the fa ther of three, will have no fi nancial worries, according to his friends,, for he had han dled his money wisely. After a vacation trip to Vermont he will consider "several good positions' that have been offered to him. r Q Seven jCrew lUMllll wwium V - U ? $A90 .sQl. Coda 265 B w Pint Coda 265 B Summertime!
