Marciano Gets Start In Army By GAYLE TALBOT GROSSINGER, N. Y. i Out behind the hotel here there Is a great stoned terrace, ard as we walked out blinking in the sun light our ears were smitten by the raucous tones of a loiicispeaker. ' There -on a slightly raised plat form stood the establishment's of ficial master of ceremonies, his left arm draped across the shoul ders of an individual obviously his stooge. A large and appreciative audience was roaring between the gags. V is a common tableau be tween meals In this section of the mountains at this. stage of the va cation season. ( The only thing that,, upon closer observation, seemed to set this one slightly apart from the mn of aft ernoon exercises was that the straight man was a prize fighter, name of Rocky Marciano. Rocky, a neighbor- explained, was taking the day off from train ing and had dropped down from his camp several miles higher up just in case some of the guests woum like to see mm. "Is It true. Rocky," he was asked, "that you began fighting when youwere in the Army be cause there was a bully who was making things miserable for every body in the company ana the boys asked you to take him on?" "Yes, it is," said Rocky. "He was a great big fellow from Texas. So the boys began talking it up and there were a lot of bets and stuff about it in the camp news paper.. First thins I knew we were in the ring and I knocked him out in the second round. I guess that s when I became a profession al fighter." Not having heard the story be fore, we wondered who the man from Texas might have oeen who fired Rocky with the ambition to become a champion. His name should be inscribed somewhere in fistlana's halls. At any rate, the small talk between the champion and the man everybody knew con tinued. In time, Rocky was brought around to his knopkout of Jersey Joe waicott, the first one at Phil adelphia where he won the title. "In the eighth round, see," said Rocky, "I got a cut on my head and they put something on It and men tney doused me with water. "This stuff, whatever it was, ran down into my eyes and the next thing I knew I couldn't see any thing, I couldn't see anything from mere uirougn tne 12th round." "But you knew, didn't vou. Rocky, that you couldn't afford to let your opponent know you were Diinav" said nis brother in the act. you Just kept swinging, didn't you? , i --That's- rights-said Rocky.: "1 couldn't see anything, but I kept on swinging ana in tne 13th i hit. him. When I hit him I lelt like I was looking down from 10 feet up wnen i x at nun." . . ...
