. 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.

clear:
"Give up your guild membership
or lose your license."
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

MONTREAL (UP Montreal

a couple of giant steps forward
in the National Hockey League
race last week.- official statistics
showed today.
The hiqh-flying habitants finally
shook the New York Rangers
loose and opened up a 10-point
lead, running their winning streak
to six straight games, while the
Broadway blueshirts dropped two
out of three in last week's action.
Meanwhile. Beliveau also put
some distance between himself
and his nearest pursuers in the
league scoring race. The stylish
pivot man scored three goals, one
into an unmanned net, and two
assists to raise his point total to
34. Teammate Bert Olmstead was
five points off the pace with 29
points, a combination of six goals
and 23 assists.
Detroit's Gordie Howe dropped
into a third-place tie with New
York's Andy Bathgate, each with
28 points. Maurice Richard, Mon
treal's veteran ripht winger, re
mained in fifth spot with 27 points,
trailed by Dave Creighton of the
Rangers, who had 26.
Ted Lindsay, the veteran Detroit
captain, led a trio of scorers
bunched in seventh place with 23
points. Lindsay had 15 goals and
eight assists while teammate Earl
"Dutch" Reibel and Doug Harvey
of the Canadiens also had 23 points,
mainly on assists.
Tod Sloan of Toronto and Ron
MurplTy of New York completed
the top 10 with 22 points each.
Montreal also continued to dom
inate the defensive phase of the
game as goalie Jr-cques Plante re
mained the only netminder with a
less thnn 2.0 goals-per-game aver
age. Plante and the Canadiens
have allowed the opposition , only
45 goals this year for a shining
1.55 mark. Detroit Rookie Glenn
Hall was next with a 2.18 mark,
followed by Lome "Gump" Wors
ley of the Rangers with 2.33. Plante
Hall, and Terry Sawchuk of Boston
each had five shutouts to their
credit.
Lindsay headed the parade to the
the penalty box with 98 minutes,
althouph Beliveau was moving up
with 80 minutes. The Canadiens
boasted learn "honors" on the pen
alty department, spending 487 min
utes in the cooler, one more than
