The right went 10 rounds without a knockdown and the ring uvvy sained In 152 previous profcsslonnl bonus kept Jackson well up in the points and prevented Snnpp, obviously the harder puncher, from ever landing a knockout blow. The two Judges voted the light to Jackson, while Referee Wally Moss had It a draw on his card. Quite a clown In the ring, Jackson bobbed, weaved. rolled, grinned and beckoned for Snapp to wade on In. He cut Snapps Hp In the first round with stinging lefts but that was the only injury. Snnpp took the second heat when he Jarred the San Franctsco negro with a good right to the face but Jackson went ahead on points again In the third when he had Snapp In the ropes twice and was scoring with a counter punch after Ursal's every bluw.

In the seventh Snapp was tirlnr from the torrid pace and was htt repeatedly by the San Francisco boxer's left hooks and bolo rights The story was repeated In the eighth. Jackson wasn't hurling Snapp but was building up plenty of points. Jackson really aimed for a knockout In the ninth, land ing a solid right hand smash to the Jaw that must have hurt Snapp Just before the round ended.

Monte Jammed a short right to Pries' chin to set the Salem boy down for nine, then when he got tip tagged him again.

Graziano Could Get License Back In October By HARRY GRAYSON NBA Sports Editor NEW YORK. July 33 vNEAl As a knocked out challenger, Rocky Clra aiano was Just another fighter whose license was revoked by the New York boxing commission. All Chairman Eddie Kuisiiti did In giving Oraalano the boot was send the only big match of the year to Chicago, drive a lot of money nut of New York, Including a siable sum In taxes. But as middleweight champion and tha man who came back, Oraalano makes a laugh out of the New Yolk board. Championed by the National Box ing association, he Is more than wel come In every other state. Eagan could have a further bad situation by licensing Graslauo In New York. The commissioner admits the dis trict attorney's office has nothing on Ora alalia Yet hs vrrmtttrd a publicity-seek ing assistant district attorney to nut a lot of words In the dead end kid's mouth. And then set him down In New York for failure to report a bribe for a fight that never came o((. Anybody with an ounce uf boxing knowledge knows that Oratiano be ing offered S100.000 for throwing a light to the , run-o'-nilne Reuben Hhnnk Is a Joke, which Is precisely what ItiH'kaby Kueky said he thought It was. New York licenses for 11148 are lo bo Issued In October. Eagait would be wise lo give Oiasliiuu one as a matter of course. Oiiixlauo won't light iiuulit before then, and fighters being what they are the 30th Century Sporting club and New York boxing are badly In need of his services. The 3011) Century Sporting club also needs a new matchmaker. Mike Junius' orgaiilrjillon could stand a good housci'lcanlng. It wouldn't surprise this observer If Jack Hurley, w ho made the Gra-alimo-Znlc matrh In Chicago, be comes JnftibV matchmaker before i the winter season seta In. Hurley will be rernllrd as the manager ot Billy Petrolic, the old Fargo Express, and others. He knows his way around. Is dead on the level, a good 1 man. He'd chase a lot of those phoney -and alleged managers and hangers- on out of sight. It was Unite kind nt cliiuiuiers who caused the (llsli'tit nllorney's Investigation of New Yolk boxing.
