LaStarza
Will Fight
The Same
By GAYLE TALBOT
GREENWOOD LAKE, N.Y. W
Usually the first question put to
Roland LaStarza in his training
' camp here among the green hills
is how he intends to fight Rocky
Marciano, the thunder-fisted cham
plotv In their title bout Sept. 24
at the Polo Grounds,
Specifically, the 26-year-old chal-
lenger, who Is not noted as a hit
ter, is asked if he plans to employ
any different tactics from those he
used when he lost a split decision
to Rocky 3Vi years ago, when both
were Just coming up.
Does he intend to play , It cozy
and try to win, by a, decision, or to
turn tiger and go for a knockout?
"All I can say is that I'll make
my fight as I go along, as I al
ways have," says the collegiate
looking young man from the
Bronx. "I know I've been criticized
for it, but that's the only way I
know how to fight. I always take
it fairly easy in the early stages
until I see what I want to do, and
then I come on. That's how I've
won all my tights. I've found
there's no use trying to plan ex-
ectly.
"For example, I planned to wait
for Rex Layne to come In-and
then counterpunch his head off. I
knew he was never in good shape,
too. So what happens? He s in the
best shape of his life and all he
wants to do Is counterpunch, him
self. I won but it was a very un
satisfactory fight- as far as I was
concerned.
"I'll have no set plan against
Rocky, except possibly to pace my
self so I'll be certain of finishing
strong. This will be my first 15
rounds, but that means nothing if
a fighter is in shape. You might
keep in mind that 111 be the first
young man Rocky has fought in
some time. He's been .fighting old
men. Maybe he'll need to pace
himself too."
LaStarza was asked if he could
see any specific Improvement In
Marciano during the long period
the pair were kept apart by
Rocky's cautious manager, Al
Weill, i
"Oh, he's a belter fighter," Ro
land conceded. "He has learned a
. lot of little things, just as I have.
But he's still no hell of a boxer.,
He didn't beat me' before and he
won't this time."
Tn snmtt 90 VPam fit trvinff. mV
ramrri n nir.ker has not been
too distinguished, except during
those good years when Joe Jjouis
was at his best and a man had to
go out of his way to miss. All i
will say at this point is that Roland
LaStarza Is a very refreshing addi
tion to the heavyweight picture and
that It might not be smart to take
him lightly. ,

Named j
Lineman
An x.tClnmnih Union High
School star was recently selected
as one of the ten best lineman-In
the nation. John Wltte, a graduate
of the class of 1951. was chosen
along with nine others uv over a
thousand sports writers as one of
the nations best. .
wltte. who is now serving two
years with the TJ. 8. Army, went
to Oregon State College and played
first string football both his fresh
men and soDhomore years His last
year he played both offense and
defense. 1
His freshmen year he took -the
heavyweight wrestling champion
shin nf the Pacific Coast Confer-
ence and wound UD second in the
nation losing out in the finals of
the national collegiate tournament.
Witte was chosen the outstanding
defensive lineman in the 1952 shrine
All-Star game. His team mate, B1U
Toole who is also attending Ore
gon State, was voted the game's
most outstanding offensive oacic
fieldman. .
"Bin John." before entering the
service, was taking a course "in
undertaking which, is the same
course taken by his "school day'
hero, Don Durdan. Durdan was i
star halfback who led the OSO Bea
vers to a Rose Bowl victory over
Duke University in 1942. - '
Durdan operates a- mortuary In
Corvallls and Wltte was getting
some experience in the business in
him frA time. v
The six foot four inch, nineteen
year old, tackle is now playing foot
ball for the Ft. Ord Bervlce team
with mieh stars as Don Helnrich,
ex-Washington star, and Ollie Mat-
son. USF footbau great ana v. tj.
Olvmnlc runner.
Witte, while In high school, cap
tured-two state wrestling cnam
TiintMhim In the heavy weight di
vision, and played three years of
varsitv football. '
In Wittes first year at Corvallls
he had one bad fault, toat to crasn
the onnosiiur line and make a sham
ble of the oppositions- oacsnera
men, thus making an opening for
mouse-trap plays. Len Younce
line coach for Kip Taylors squad
worked with John and soon had this
fmilt whinned.
When John finishes his hitch in
the service he plans on continuing
his education at Oregon State along
with his football. :

It looks as if it's going to cost
more to commute oeiween we
World Series ball parts tnis lau
but only because they've raised the
subway lare in new xora vuy.
After seven nickel series and
three dime classics (the fare went
up to 10 cents in 1948), this year's
big ' show appears set to be a
"token" affair. (Tokens replaced
cash when the fares were hiked
to 15 cents last montn.)
Barring miracles the participants
will be the Hew York Yankees, for
the 111th straigm year, ana uie
Brooklyn Dodgers, lor the second
time in a row.
The Chicago White Sox and Mil
waukee Braves continue to put up
game, but most probably vain,
ilghts from their second place
spots. The schedules and the stand
ings are against oow oi mem.
Chicago trails the Yankees by
seven games and the two clubs
