Maxim Loses Crown
Archie Moore Bangs Out
Decision Over Champion
By ED WILK8
ST. LOUIS 141 Able Archie
Moore, wearing bis new light
heavyweight crown ai a jaunty im,
now hurls a promise that carries
. a cnHiicnge to omer nopeiuis in
his 176-pound class:
"I'm going to put some life Into
the division. Any contender who
deserves a chance will gel irom
me."
That was one of the tl"t state
ments made by the 36-year-old St.
Louis Negro last night as the new
world lighlhcavy king. Only min
utes belorc he had won a unani
mous decision over Joey Maxim
a thoroughly beaten but astound
lngly game ex-champion.
NO DOUBT
There wasn't much doubt about
who would be wearing the crown at
fight's end by the time the batter
ing fists of Moore had mauled Joey
for seven rounds.
Before the bout, Moore who
weighed 172'i to Maxim's 174'a
was an 8-5 favorite, with the odds
shifting to 12-5 at fight tinre.
Judge Fred Connell gave it to
Moore. 87-63, and Judge Howard
Hess saw it 82-68. Referee Harry
Kessler alone had it surrisingly
close. Repeatedly warning Moore
to keep his punches up, but penal
izing him only once, Kessler
scored the fight 76-74.
The Associated Press card had
It 87-63 for Moore.
APPROVAL
The crowd of 12.610 fans that
flocked to the arena and paid a
gross gate of $89,487 for a new
St. Louis record also shouted ap
proval of the decision. After the
seventh Moore just went through
the formality o fighting the pre
scribed 15 rounds.

Native Dancer Lags
In Race for Record
By JOHN CHANDLER
(For Gayle Talbot)
NEW YORK on Native Dancer
Is the undefeated 1-year-old cham
pion, but he's Kt to be one whale
of a racehorse to earn more money
in one year than Citation, which
set the record with $700,470 in
1948.
Alfred Vanderbilfs grey Juvenile
star not only has to be mighty
good, but he must remain sound
and have a lot of racing luck.
Native Dance in winning nine
races this year earned (230,495,
most ever stacked up by 2-year-old.
Citation won eight of nine in
his 1947 Juvenile year, and $155,
680. EASY DOES IT
Trainer Bill Winfrey has Native
Dancer in California, just taking
It easy with others in Vanderbilt
stable. Native Dancer probably
won't begin his 3-year-old cam
paign until April in New York.
He wasn't nominated for the $100,
000 Santa Anita Derby. -
In Citation's biggest year, asa
1-year-old. Ben Jones and son Jim

n it
Iff
Particularly In the 10th did
Moore assert his punching super
iority. He leaped out of a crouch
and landed a smashing right I lull
sent the 30-year-old Maxim reeling
Into the ropes. Only Joey's abiliij
to tie up his opponent kept him
from suffering the second knock
out of his 12-year career.
That was the big question
throughout the fight. How much
can Maxim take?
TAKFS IT
He can take an amazing amount
of punishment. He was hurt in
every round after the s evenlh.
And even in the first he was stag
gered by a right and had to clinch
to clear his head.
In the eighth Moore opened a
cut under Maxim's left eve. In the
ninth blood spilled from a deep
gash on Maxim's left check. He
nnisned the 10th with a matching
cut on the right cheek.
rune and again Moore un
leashed the full fury of almost a
decade of frustration as the "un
crowned champion," only to find
Maxim still on his feet. Maxim
shuffled into clinches, took lei t
Jabs and tried unsuccessfully, to
avoid Moore's jarring, sneaky
rigm nand.
THIRD TIME
It was only the third title de
fense for Maxim since the Cleve
land Italian on the crown from
Freddie Mills in 1S50. Moore, a
contender for 10 years and No.l
challenger for almost five, had
been ignored until now as a poor
drawing card.
Maxim got sioo.ooo for the light
under a contract guarantee.
Receints Irom a nation-wiae tele
cast were not disclosed, but little
more than the title was left for
Moore. For Archie, that was
enough.
?.-S. :tt:
sic played for the benefit of the
local Shriners' Crippled Children's
Hospital.
BEADS EAST
Clarence (Biggie) Munn of un
defeated Michigan State, the top
team in the annual Associated
Press poll, heads the East's coach
ing staff. He is assisted by Ray
Eliot of Illinois and Dr. Eddie
Anderson of Holy Cross. Munn,
coach of the year in the AP poll,
will use his highly successful single
wing offense.
The East shapes up as a hard
hitting outfit, powered by some
great running backs: fine passers
and top receivers. Michigan State's
my of the Calumet Farm started
their star early, at Hialeah Park
Feb. 2. Citation raced six times
before heading into Kentucky and
the Derby.
He earned, in those six races,
$84,225, including victories in the
Flamingo and Chesapeake Stakes.
Cuessirtr that Native Dancer's
schedule :alls for the $25,000 Ex
perimental Handicap and the $100,-
000 wood Memorial at Jamaica
before the Derby, the Vanderbilt
colt could go into the Louisville
classic on about even terms with
Citation in the bankroll battle.
FIGURE TJP
There are plenty of $100,000 races
Id 1953 for Native Dancer to take
a real crack at Citation's one-year
earnings mark. The Wood Mem
orial is one, upped to that figure
for the first time.
In winning the triple crown-
Derby, Preakness and Belmont
citation picked up $252,970 alone
in 1S48. All three nr S100 mi-added
races again next spring, and Na-1
tive Dancer pointing for them.
