Preliminary Bout
Commission
battler, now studying for the
ministry while earning his living
with his mitts, was suspended
for a year by the local commis
sion some time back for failure
to appear here for a fight. And
now he has that lump as big
as a polo ball on his forehead,
and no dough. .
The engagement, top event of
five 10-rounders, was slow and
uninteresting all the way.
Brown failed to land an effec
tive punch, while Yorosz, broth
er of former Middleweight
Champion Ted Yarosz, spent
most of the evening flicking
his left in Brown's face.

Big Gates
Cut Field
PATERSON, N. J., July 0 ()
Emphasis by promoters on high
priced tickets and record gates
has left boxing with "less cham
pionship timber in most of its
classes than in many years," says
Abe J. Greene, president of the
National Boxing association.
Greene made the statement in
issuing the NBA's quarterly
ratings of championship contend
ersa list noteworthy this time,
among other things, because it
recognizes no contenders for Joe
Louis' heavyweight crown. Tami
Maurlello, the pudgy Bronx
belter, and Jersey Joe Walcott
are recognized only as "outstand
ing boxers," with five others
given honorable mention. Of
these. Billy Conn is fourth.
"Overemphasis on the box of
fice instead of on improvement
of the breed" has brought box
ing to such a sorry pass, says
Greene, and he promptly offers
a remedy "forget concentration
on high-priced tickets and record
gates and pay more attention to
giving the up-and-coming young
sters a chance."
Greene listed Ezzard Charles
and Billy Fox as logical contend
ers for Gus Lesnevlch's light
heavyweight crown; Rocky Gra
ziano, Charlie Burley and Jake
Lamotta as contenders behind
Middleweight Champion Tony
Zole; Ray Robinson as Welter
weight Marty Servo's logical con
tender (they're due to meet in
August); Bob Montgomery and
Willie Joyce as Lightweight Ike
Williams' top rivals; Phil Terra
nova and Jackie Groes as right
behind FeatherweightTitleholder
Willie Pap; Kui Kong Young and
Bennie Goldberg as next in line
to Bantam Champion Manuel
Ortiz, and four men topped by
Dado Marino as logical contend
ers for Jackie Paterson's fly
weight crown.
