McCoy spent some six hours on the stand Thursday as Cox con centrated his questioning on the matchmaker's relations with three boxers, Gil Cadilli, Don Jordan and Carlos Chavez. Through Cadilli, particularly, Cox sought to establish that Mc Coy not only is the matchmaker at the Influential Olympic Audi torium but was the secret owner or co-owner of fighters.. ALLEGATIONS McCoy, in detail, denied such allegations, with legal help from his attorney, Jake Erhlich of San Frnncisco. Featherweight Cadilli followed him to the stand and testified that McCoy did seek to become his co-owner in partnership with vet eran manager Jack Reams. Cadilli testified that at first he was "all for the deal" but he later soured on It and disappeared be fore affixing his signature to a contract. He reappeared some days later, signed to a contract with Sid Flaherty and his large San Fran cisco stable. Cadilli said that McCoy, during their alleged relations, agre.ed that he could quit his working job and that he discovered he was constantly In debt to McCoy. Cox asked his present status. Cadilli said he has $2,600 in a trust fund, owns his home and has a regular job, along with carrying on as a main event fighter. CANCELLED Cox. with McCoy on the stand, attempted to show through can celled checks that actually Mc Coy and Kearns, who allegedly was invited into the matter by McCoy, each put up $1,250 to buy CadilU's contract from the original manager, Bert Lewis. Flaherty, McCoy agreed, sent him $2,500 to buy off the contract. McCoy said he turned the $2,500 back to Kearns. $1,250 by check and $1,250 later In cash. He denied Cox's charge that he actually gave Kearns only $1,250 because "It was a half and half deal" in the first place. McCoy also denied he had any part In buying up the contracts of Jordan, who Thursday night fought Jimmy Carter at the Olym pic, and Chavez. Ducks1 Mile Champs Meet At Willamette SALEM, Ore.

NEA Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (NEA) Some time in the middle of next month, Ray Robinson will move to Gil more Springs, California, to start the final phase of his training for his fourth meeting with Bobo Olson in Los Angeles on May 18. This is contingent, of course, on his personal transportation experts, railroad passenger agents and long-haul moving van people. When Sugar Ray Robinson moves from his Greenwood Lake, New York, camp to the desert, it should be one of the largest ex peditions to head west since the days they make movies about. Robinson will have 16 people in his entourage. Based on past performances. the middleweight champion's party averages three and a half pieces of luggage per man. The movement, however, will be much bigger this time. Robinson is even carting his own training ring to the Golden State. COCKEYED "We are now involved In the logistics of transportation," Ernie Braca, one of his five managers, says. "Robinson has been in camp steadily for the past month.' I assume this proof enough that the fight regardless of cockeyed ru mors will come off as scheduled. "Truman Gibson of the Interna tional Boxing Club has told us Ol son is in training. Bing Crosby Buys Stock In NWL Club SPOKANE iff) An enthusiastic stock salesman caught Binp Cros by on the golf course Thursday and the singer bought an undis closed number of shares in his hometown, community - owned baseball team. "Crosby has also promised to buy another large block of stock if- Ihe drive here gains the mo mentum we expeal," said Gus Cozza. Spokane contractor and chairman of the fund raising drive for the Spokane Indians of the Northwest League. Frank Baker, who is a id in tr the drive, sold the stock to Crosby while playing golf with the former Spokane resident at Palm Springs, Calif., Cozza said. Crosby is one of the stockholders in the Pittsburgh Pirates of tne National League. Spokane straggled through last season as a community-o w n e d team although plagued with fi nancial troubles, a slow stock sale and small crowds. The team had dropped out of the old Western International League in the middle of the 1954 season. GORDON DARLING Spring Sports "For our purposes, the fight has to take place now." Braca was referring to the Johnny tSaxton - Carmen Basilio verdict. That one hit the Robinson camp like a sledgehammer. Ne gotiations had been under way to stage a BasiUo-Robinson bout at Yankee Stadium, June 28. Robin- AW ISM RAY ROBINSON . . . make! big move son expected to make $25,000. When Saxton's hand was raised, telephone wires hummed around New York.

United States prairies. The fowl are released after be- i ing marked with leg bands which ! help the service study breeding nnd migration habits. Director John' L. Farley said this marks the first time the serv ice has planned to use special dog crews, although Individual crew members and technicians of the Dominion Wildlife Service have used them in the past. "Experimental use of dogs has proven that they are more eco nomical (han other techniques for capturing Immature birds," Far ley said. The dogs will be ued primarily on young mallards, because of the tendency of that bird to leave the water when frightened and scurry to any available brush cover. Other types of fowl are trapped by use of nets. Overload I W-f 1 OWL TRACK APRIL 13 AT REOPINcr OTI-YUBA- SHASTA SOC ... APRIL Z7 AT ASHLAND SOC-UtfO FROSH-OTl...

It could only happen to me. Basilio won that fight," Robinson moaned. "What am I going to do about the C.idillao I ordered?" Gainford moaned. "Al. I know la that I had a liquor store and a Cadillac bought at 10 o'clock that night, At 11, I sold them for a loss," Braca said. "Somebody ought to think of Uncle Sam. Think of all the tax money he blew," Robinson said. SIDESTEPPING With that, all thought of side stepping Carl Olson to get the big Basilio money went out the win dow. The middleweight champion is guaranteed $75,000 for meeting Olson and .he can't get it any place else. The Olson bout now becomes an Important one. Probably the big gest job facing both fighters is to clear their minds for action. Robinson, .immersed In income tax difficulty, counted on the Ba silio go to clear it up. His payday this time will not satisfy the gov ernment. Olson has a m e s i of family troubles. He also has to get over the three losing bouts with Robinson, in two of which he wound up flattened. Boxing people are Inclined to 'toss out the two-round knockout Robinson scored In November, "Robinson didn't go two rounds. How do we know what would hap pen to him if he had to push him self Into late rounds? He's an old gjuy," they say. "Olson has to be given a big chance." WHY PAY MORE?
