J. (LTD -Here in America's oldest fight camp, ancienl Charley, Goldman is training Ilubin I Hurricane) Carter, whom Charley picks to do the "Fitzsimmons Triple." The late great Boh Fitzsimmons won the world middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight 1 crowns, although not in that ord-' er. Goldman, 75. has already trained five world titleholders: Rocky Marciano. Al McCoy, Mar ly Servo, Lou Amebers and Joey Archibald. And the biscuit-faced little man, veleran .participant of nearly 400 old-lime bouts said today: "I'm positive that Carter will be at least my sixth champion and quite likely my seventh and eighth." Elisan Karadag, 72 - year - old owner of this hillside layout, sounded almost Irish (although he's Persian) when he said: "And he can do it, loo!" Lean, swarthy Ehsan and the late Mademe Bey opened this Belinsky Garners Third Victory By t'nitod Press International Maybe Bo Belinsky has re formed ! From the way he is pitching for the Hawaii Islanders, it sure looks that way, Bo, warming up the record crowd of 1(1,054 which turned out at Honolulu Stadium Monday night for the Islanders' final home game of the season, pitched a neat four-hitler la lead Hawaii to a 6-0 victory over Spokane. In gaining his third victory without a loss since being sent lo Hawaii by the parent Los An geles Angels, Bo set the Indians down with ease. He didn't permit a runner to reach third and hard ly was in trouble. Stan Palys and Bobbie Knoop homered to make things easy for Belinsky. He helped himself, too. striking out eight batters and walking only three. The Islanders collected 10 hits in all off a trio of Spokane pitchers. In the only other game played Monday, the Seattle Rainiers broke open a 3-3 tie in the seventh inning en route to an 11-3 victory over the Tacoma Giants Tacoma scored in the top of the inning to tic the score and the Rainiers then sent 12 men to the plate in the bottom of the frame ,V bust, tile game wide open. Seattle collected 15 hits in a! off four Giant pitchers with Dave Hall getting three singles. Five other Rainiers had two hits each and only one man, Bill Tutlle. went hitless. Billy Spanswick gave up nine hits but struck out 12 batters to register his 14th victory of the season against eight losses. Bill Hands, the Tacoma starter, took the loss, his fifth against only one victory. Despite their victory the Is landers still trail Spokane by 11' j games in the PCL's Northern Di vision race.

J., is ranked No. 1 among mildleweight ( 160-pound i conten ders by the World Boxing Asso ciation since ex-champ Gene Fullmer was stopped by champ ion Dick Tiger on Aug. 10. Remarkably well-built Rubin, with the shaven bead and droop ing black pirate's mustache, is training here for his nationally televised fight with lanky Farid S a 1 i m of Argentina at Pitts burgh's new Civic Arena Sept. 14. After the Piltsburgh bout, 25- vear-old Carter will demand a title fight with champion Dick Tiger of Nigeria; but in case Tiger has oilier commitments Carter will meet contender Joey Archer of New York at Madison Square Garden, Oct. 18. Manager Explained Manager Carmen Tedeschie. wealthy 41-ycar-old building con tractor of haridlcbrook. N. J., a daily visitor here at camp, ex-! plained today: "I'm offering Tiger a guarantee of $75,000 to defend against Ru bin and, in spile of all the big talk some others arc mak ing I don't know any place else where Tiger can get $75,000 in money not words. It's Goldman's contention that, although Carter usually weighs about 158'j pounds for his bouts and probably will not get much heavier, he hits so hard and fast that he could beat any light heavyweight or heavy in the world, including Sonny Liston. "He's the hardest-hitting mid dleweight since Stanley Ketchel," explained Goldman. "And he hits a lot faster and straightcr than Ketchel did, Ketchel was a hook er and swinger." Ketchel. who was shot to dcalh while middleweight champion in 1!) 10. knocked out light heavy weight contender Philadelphia Jack O Brien (3) and almost won the heavyweight crown from Jack Johnson, who had to climb off the canvas to stop "The Michi gan Assassin" U2i. Carler has knocked nut 15 while winning 18 of his 21 fights. He lost two decisions and was stopped once on a cut eye. "And don't forget," concluded Goldman, "Fitzsimmons weighed only 167 w hen he took the heavy weight title from Jim Corbett on a 14th-round knockout. You don't need the pounds if you've got the heavyweight punch " Herald-News Tennis Tourney Begins Saturday At Park The 16th annual Herald and News Tennis Tournament will be gin Saturday morning at Moore Park at 8 o'clock and the finals are scheduled Monday.
