Graziano
Probe Is
Held Over
NEW YORK, Feb. 6 (IV)
Rooky Qrssiano testified un
der oath today that ha did
not know the name of the
man who twice offered him
1100,000 to throw fights and
that he thought the offers
were "a Joke.
Ha was the first wlln.it to
be called In his own case at
Ihe New York slate athl.tlo
commission hearing for his
failure to report the bribe
offer lor him to throw his Da
camber 27 fight with Ruben
Shank of Denver, which was
cancelled.
He said lhat ' during his
questioning January 25 and
26 at tha district attorney's
office, when be voluntarily '
told of tha attempted fix, he
Informed officials that ha had
sean ihe would-be fixer
"around the gym" and "around
Jacobs beach."
NEW YORK. Feb. 8 111
After hearing an amistunt dis
trict attorney and two detectives
from the district attorney's of
fice, the New York state athletic
commission completed its case
ycMcrdny In Its hearing on
Hoiky Uniziuno's failure to re
port an offer of $100,000 to
throw a light.
Tliu case then was adjourned
until today.
Assistant District Attorney
Alfred Scottl admitted under
crone-examination that ho never
asked police to try to obtain a
description or a man who offered
Hocky Graziano $100,000 to lose
his boxing bout with Ruben
Shunk of Denver last December
27.
The admission was drawn by
Jacob J. KoMMiblum, attorney
for Grubiuno, after the second
day of the middleweight title
contender's hearing for failure
to report the bribe offer got un
der way before the New York
stale athletic commission.
Scotli also admitted under
cross-examination by Roscnblum
that his statement that Graziano
was lying when he said he did
not know the men who offered
him the bribe was solely Seoul's
own "belief and that he was
not infallible.
Scottl left the stand follow
ing five and one-half hours of
direct testimony and crosa
examlnation but only after his
stay In the witness chair wound
up in an uproar over the final
question asked Roscnblum.
"Did Graziano say to you
when you went into the grand
Jury with him (on January 27)
that you were twisting his
words?" Rosenblum asked.
Scottl leaped to his feet and
roared:
' That's a disservice to the bar
and the commission to ask me
to answer that question. It's
shameful and disgraceful to ask
a question like that to ask me
to ten you what went on before
the grand jury. "

Aiken Gives Formula
For Winning Squad
PORTLAND, Feb. 6 (7P
James W. Aiken, the University
of urcgon s new football coach,
coined a formula for gridiron
success at a banquet in his honor
here last night.
Expressing It alphabetically as
"MC-S-P," Aiken explained It
ns M. for material, C for coach
ing, S for schedule and P for
promotion. The result is a win-
nine team, Aiken declared, but
the chief product is building
men.

birds in the region of

Negro Player's Chance Dim
Philadelphia, Feb. 0 IIP) Rollicking Kollie Herrfsley,
In town to sign his 1047 Philadelphia Phillies' contract, said
ho didn't believe Jackie Robinson, negro baseball star, would
make tho major league grade.
Hemsley, veteran catcher, barnstormed after the 1946
season with Bobby Feller und one of tho players he faced
was Robinson.
"Robinson played four games against us," Hemsley said,
"and made one hit, on a bunt. He Is fast and when you say
that you have said It all. 1 don't think he can make the
major Icaguo grade."
Hemsley said Robinson had only a fair arm and "doesn't
cover second base any too well on double plays and certainly
has no power at the bat."
Saga Of A Fighier
Murphy Licked 'Em All
But Never Won A Title
NEW YORK, Feb. 6 (N E A ) Crowding 62, Harlem Tommy
Murphy Is little less lively and much more mischievous than
when he was the champion of near champions in the days of great
fighters.
There wasn't too much money around when Murphy was the
perfect club fighter In 130-odd mutches over a period of 12 years,
1903-14, Inclusive, but the lantern-Jawed Irishman got his share
of what there was and is comfortably fixed.
As proud as ever, Murphy goes to work daily as a main
tenance man In a Brooklyn 7
shipyard, Is an independent in
surance broker and during the
war taught boxing to trainees
at Fordham and New York uni
versity. He has a married
daughter, but Uvea alone as a
permanent guest at tne largest
of Brooklyn's hotels.
He still peppers unsuspecting
strangers with No. 0 bee bee
shot from between his teeth, at
which he has long been an
artist.
Murphy was rough and rug
ged. He could punch a bit, wus
hard to hurt, always crowding.
He never turned In a bad fight.
He sidled through the hemp for
only one purpose to win and
when he dldn l ne was trying
to the last.
Champions steered clear of
him until they lost their titles.
Willie Ritchie being the only
one to give mm a crack at a
crown. The chance came too
late. Murphy was only 29, but
broke in at 17, and the- pace
and competition took a lot out
of fighters in his day. He was
in the sere and yellow of nis
illustrious career when he lost
to Ritchie in 20 hard-fought
rounds In, San Francisco, April
17, 1914. He made just one
more fight, retired six months
later.
Ex-champions who felt the
thud of Murphy's fists were At
tell five times, Dixon, McGov
ern, Young Corbett, Harry Har
ris and Wolgast thrice. He
tackled such as Benny Yangcr,
Spike Robson three times, Mat
ty Baldwin three times, Fight
ing Dick Hyland twice, Cross
thrice, McFarland four times,
Owen Moran four times, K. O.
Valentine Brown three times
and Beecher. He waa as good
at 20 rounds as he was at six.
Murphy fought Abe Attcll
two 20-rounders, won the first,
the second ending in a draw
and still considered by old
timers in California as the gori
est. battle ever fought. -
Too heavy for the feather
weight class, too light for the
lightweights throughout the
greater part of his career, Har
lem Tommy Murphy developed
into the toughest of the .trial
horses.

Colorful
Ringster
Near End
CHICAGO, Feb. 6 fP) Nate
Lewis of Chicago, last of the
nation's most colorful and oldest
fight managers, was seriously 111
today in a Miami, Fla., hospital.
Stricken with a cerebral hem
orrhage, Lewis was paralyzed on
his right side and U he survives,
he probably will suffer some
permanent paralysis. At his ad
vanced ago he's considerably
older than 70 his chances of
recovery were considered doubt
ful by physicians.
Lewis' connection with the
prize ring dates back 50 years.
Forty years ago he steered "Kid"
Herman, a rough Chicago 133
pounder, into a world's light
weight championship match with
Joe Gans. in Tonopah, Nev. Her
man lasted eight rounds with the
ring master on January 1, 1907.
Lewis gave up the manage
ment of boxers In 1929 to be
come matchmaker for the newly
built $7,000,000 Chicago stadium.
He served in that capacity, and
also on the board of directors,
for six years. He matched Mickey
Walker and Tommy Loughran
for the stadium's opening bout
that drew $186,000, which stands
today as an indoor record.
Since 1937 Lewis handled the
affairs of Chicago's Leo Rodak,
a lightweight, who in his last
engagement last fall lost to John
Thomas In Los Angeles by a
technical fifth round knockout.
Lewis went to Miami about a
month ago. His health has been
poor since he suffered a heart
attack two years ago.
Lewis earned and spent a for
tune perhaps a couple of them
his greatest sport, next to box
ing, was horse racing.
