All signs today indicated that NBA, which controls boxing vir tually everywhere else in the United States outside of New York, would give Rocky a severe reprimand but would not invoke such a drastic penalty as lifetime banishment. Consequent ly it was freely forecast that the Grazlano-Zole bout probably would get a "green light this summer. Already two different Chicago promoters, Ben Zcnoff and James Williams, have bid for the bout which had been expected to draw $400,000 in Madison Square Gar den March 21.

The great 60,000 seat bull ring was about one-fifth occupied. There was no announcement of attendance or receipts but it looked as if everyone but the fighters lost money. They got thelr'a before they came here; Louis $50,000 and Godoy, Chil ean champion, $10,500. Louia and his trainers took passage on the first morning lane tor sen Salvador where oe is to put on an exhibition with his sparring partner, Wel ter Hcafer. The heavyweights boxed 10 two-minute rounds with 14-ounce glove. It was a tame affair which contained very little slug ging and no damage. Godoy, who showed a tendency to stick close to the champion and prevent him from opening up, unofficial ly earned the sixth and eighth rounds by a narrow margin. Louis outclassed the Chilean during the rest, excent for the first and third rounds which un officially were called even. Louis weighed 213, Godoy 210.
