Dodgers Deny J, ' By" GAYLB TALBOT NEW YORK V-The mailman brought a letter signed by Charles C. Riccio, 19, a resident" of Brook lyn wno wishes to become a pro fessional baseball catcher and' who feels he has been given a fast shuffle by his hometown Dodgers. ."On May 6th," Riccio writes, "I was awarded a contract with Brooklyn and assigned to the Hor nell farm team, Clnss-D Pony League. I left for Hornell on May 18, having left my job, put up my car for sale and been given a grand seudoff by family and now, less than three weeks later, I am home again, having been unconditionally released. "The three weeks I was at Hor nell I spent sitting on the, bench and warming up pitchers. I was assigned to play only on two oc casions and was at bat three limes. Do you consider this fair trial of a player's merit justifying the aorupt cancellation of his contract? - "I am wondering whether this Is the, way all new players are treated by the Dodgers, or whether 1 was especially unlucky In falling Into the hands of the manager at Horned, who happens also to be the catcher of the team there. "The manager himself insisted . t & .mi - s HAR E TO TIME TRIALS 6:45..

Crowds for the first two race cards were gcod and Neslln sees tomorrow nights crowd 'as better. , The new roundup queen and her princesses are to have a featured spot on the program. They are tn be introduced from the flagman's platform In the center of the arena and . this introduction Is being built into quite a production. Neslln says that reports from the California hardtop havens predict a goodly representation of Invaders to challenge the Klamath racers for purses.

Ml Rival rowing coaches hoped for some help from the barometer Saturday in their attempt to upset Navy's all-conquering Olympic champions in the 51st Intercollegiate Regatta on Onondaga Lake. The strong-backed midshipmen are seeking to climax a phenomen al two-year unbeaten record by out racing ten other' eight-oar shells for their 20th straight victory. "The weather is the big factor." said glum Al Ulbrickson, whose University of Washington Huskies are conceded the best chance of cracking the Navy skein. . "If it's hot and humid, .that should help Navy. That Is a big. strong bunch of hoys who can stand up under it. I'd like to see it turn cool. I'm afraid my crew will wilt if it stays hot."

" NEW ' YORK -- Bobo Olson won the American middleweight cham pionship by punching out a 15 round unanimous , decision over Paddy Young.. - GOLF. TOLEDO, O.

California net a. meet rec ord In the discus throw .with a toss of 183 feet In the NCAA Champion ships. Rookie's 'Fast on playing in all the games, even though on one occasion his ankle was so badly injured that It had to be taped and he Is still limp ing. Another time, when he was stricken with flu and ordered to stay in bed, he still Insisted on playing and actually threw up In the dugout. "Of course I'm not giving up yet.' but I did want -you to know now such high hopes could be so completely and, I believe, unfairly shattered In so short a time." Such a communication from base ball's nether world has been rare In our experience, and we lost little time in getting through to Buzz Bavasi,. a clean-living young vice presloeht of the Dodgers. Advised that he might be In position to do his good deed for the summer. Bavasi said wait a minute. "I have it here, his card," he said finally. "It has a yellow N. P. on It. That means no prospect. I also Just received a copy of his letter. Looks like he's writing- to everybody." Just the same,- we pursued, did the Dodgers cause this ambitious young man to lose his regular Job by promising him a baseball ca reer and then cast him loose after only three times at bat? Bobo Gets Young By Wide Vote NEW YORK tei Calm, poker faced Carl (Bobo) Olson believes he will beat England s Randy Tur pln "on style" and win the world middleweight championship In Aug ust. Shortly after he handed durable Paduy V oung au artistic lacing in Madison Square Garden last night to capture the American 160-pound crown by a unanimous . and . very big margin balding Bobo said "I've got the style to beat Tur pin." . - "Ho's awkward, strong and pretty good," said Bobo of the one time world champion, "but I be lieve my bobbing and weaving style will do it. TROUBLE "I saw pictures of his second fight with (Ray) Robinson," said Bobo as he dunked his hands in a bucket of ice water, "and I know my style will give him more trou ble than anyone else has." Including Robinson? "Yes, including Robinson," said Bobo. , . Olson and Manager Sid Flaherty were eager for the clash with Tur pin but Flaherty said he wasn't happy with promoter Jim Norrls choice for the site. Norris wants to put it on In New York's Yankee Stadium on Aug. 27. Flaherty said he prefers San Francisco, his and Bobo's home town. "We can do $500,000 at the gate in Kezar Stadium and televise the light, too." said Flaherty. "That's a lot better than they'll do in New York.", .; :, - , . GOOD TAKE Last night's massacre; which drew 7,418 fans; grossed $36,260 at a $12 top. The 15-rounder was broadcast and telecast nationally, with an extra $50,000 for radio and TV, each glodiator collected a to tal of. about $23,000. The 24-ycar old Young,' a pow er' puncher with his left, was In the fight in the first three rounds briefly again In the seventh, and eighth and in the fifteenth. Other wise it was no contest. - - At the f 1 n I s b Judge Arthur Busstind scored it 12-3. Judge Ar thur Aldala had It 11-3-1, and Ref eree Petey Scalzo, 9-4-2. The AP, scorecard scored It -11-3-1'. NO KNOCKDOWNS ..: ; , . There were no knockdowns ond nothing close to one although both got in their Sunday punches. Es pecially in tne second, in that stan za Young first shook up Olson with a left hook" to-the ' Jaw -but slope shouldered Bobo- came back with a left hook of his own that seemed to rock Paddy. Young, who welghpd 159'i to Ol son's 1593i, thought he could wear down the 3 to 1 choice with body bombs. Bobo took them without flinching and returned all with in terest. . . TIME OUT! 'My husband needs cooling out, too it's the first race he's " won this year!" Shuffle1 Beef "He did not give up his job," Bavasi replied. "We insisted that at gel a leave of absence before we consented to his plea that he be given a chance. We gave him a one-month contract, even though we thought he was too small and did not consider him a prospect, "At the end of the month we thought it fairer to him to cut him loose. We were convinced he could never hope to reach the big leagues, so why kid him? In addi tion to his pay we gave him $250 to cover his expenses." Was it customary, we asked, to hire such hopefuls on a month-to-montb basis? Our vague Impres sion bad been .that all baseball contracts ran for at least a season. "We have to do it that way In the low minors," Buzz explained patiently. "Otherwise we'd find ourselves loaded up with kids who can't really play ball." One more thing what about that catcher - manager, up at Hornell who won't let anybody else play. even when he should be in an oxy gen tent? What about him? "we owe Riccio a vote oi tnanks for tipping us off about that fel low," Bavasi chortled. "That's the kind we need. We'll take care of that boy. His name's Merv Dorn-burg."

Gib is expected to drive him in' the big one, .old Ben being content with his record of four Hambletonlan . triumphs. Henry Thomas, 64, who has held the f reins on three ' winners, is thought to be about ready to let his son Dick, 32, have a whirl at it this time:-.They have been driv ing against each other regularly on the Grand Circuit.
