Bobo Olson To Answer Damage Suit ' SAN FRANCISCO (UP) For - mer middleweight champion Carl i Bobo) Olson was expected to tes .jtily in Federal Court today in re i .' gard to a $500,000 damage suit (' brought against the fighter, and his jf manager by a Honolulu dairyman. I The dairyman. Herbert Vincent Ji Campos, is seeking damages on 8 grounds Olson ran out on two I contracts to fight under his man i agement, and that manager Sid Flaherty induced Olson to meaen the contracts. Campos asked $260,000 each from Flaherty and the Hawaiian-born boxer. Campos claimed yesterday that he cabled Flaherty a request to line up mainland fights for Olson, but Flaherty turned him down with the comment: "I don't say Carl couldn't be developed into a card (attraction) here, but it would take time." In 1B51, Campos said. Olson told an executive meeting of the Terri torial Boxing Commission in Hono lulu that he wanted to go to the mainland because he could not get fights in Honolulu. "I told him (Olson) he could go to the mainland provided I could get my contract rights and I would get him a manager." Campos said. Olson departed for the mainland in 1951 to work under Flaherty, Campos said. The dairyman testi fied that during slack periods he advanced Olson as much as $8300 to meet various bills. Attorneys for both sides agreed that the suit would revolve around the question of whether the Hawaii Boxing Commission had the right to release Olson from his contract with Campos. Olson's attorney, Howard C. Ellis, brought out the fact that the Olson-Campos contract of July 20. 1949, had never been filed with or approved by the territorial boxiiig commission. He also got an admission from Campos that the dairyman had not taken proper steps, such is iiSing for a license to enable Olson to fight in any state other than Pennsylvania.

If the 81 members of the Boxing nuild of New York refuse to turn in their cards before the Jn. 15 deadline, boxing may be dead in New York. One matchmaker saw last night It would be impossible to put together more than one or two cards involving fighters whose managers now are non-guild mem bers, i "This definitely will he the end of boxing in New York," said one prominent manager who didn't preseason . calculations to third place this week.
