Sugar Backed
Against Ropes
NEW YORK (UPD-Sugar Ray
Robinson, pinned against the legal
ropes by the double attack of :
New York state judge and' tin
National Boxing Association, was
in grave danger today of losing
his world middleweight champion
ship.
Robinson, who never has de
fended the crown he won last year
from Carmen Basilio, was told
Wednesday by state ' Supreme
Court Judge Saul Strcit that he
must sign .within 15 days to de
fend against Basilio or risk being
stripped of the crown.
And the NBA, which rules box
ing in states other than New York
indicated it will take the title
from the "Sugar Man" unless he
- signs by midnight this Saturday.
Just how Robinson would react
to these twin threats, as danger
ous as any he ever faced in the
ring, wasn't being made clear
either by Robinson or by his han
dlers. One source .reported the
chamnion defiant, daring both
New York and the NBA to do
their worst, but Robinson, busy
with funeral arrangements for his
sister, wasn't making any public
statements.

When White took action. Rivers
as bleeding badly from the

eye, his right eye was nearly
closetTand he wasn't making
