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!"

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

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.

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

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

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

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

tiredness relieved upon their ar
rival home Monday aflernoon be
fore a welcoming crowd of about'
1,500.
They were greeted royally de-
spile having a 1-2 record in the
recent Babe Hulh World Scries
in Farmington. N.M. They were
a little disappointed in them
selves in not having won a few
more games for the home folks.
But the fans who backed them
all year were out lo greet them
and show them that they were
behind them, win or lose, and to
remind them that there is an
other year coming.
Several of the city s officials
were out to welcome the team, I Markham emphasized the fact
'baptism" in an exhibition game
against the Philadelphia Eagles
Saturday at Hcrshey, Pa.
"It's Vandy's game," head
coach Norm Van Broeklin said
Monday in announcing he will
start the former Wisconsin star,
who has watched the Vikings'
first three pre-season contests
from the bench.
Van Broeklin also announced
t lie purchase of two defensive
tackles Billy Wilson and
George Holtz from the St. Lou
