At yesterdays session, Timme
took the witness stand and admitted
carting the army revolvers in a
truck from the arsenal to Perpente's
home at Highland Park. Timme
said he was told to do so by Title,
and did not know anything was

The all-around playing of Mike Jor-

FRANKIE GENARO is
LOOKING FORWARD TO
QUITTING THE RING
Wants to Win Worlds
Title and Retire-Has
Had Queer Career.

New York. April 7.-Fate almost
miscast frankie Genaro, the 21-year-
old New Yorker who recently toppled
Pancho Villa, the Filipino, off his
American flyweight throne.
1t would be difficult for many peo-
pie TO look at the bundle of energy
that is Gensro, with his boyish, smil-
ing face, showing two front teeth
broken off, and not wonder if he
weren't in his first long trousers.
frankie, however, veteran of 80
professional ring battles, is the father
of two children. Marie, three and
Anthony, one. He was married when
he was seventeen.
His father died when he was young
and Genaro went TO work driving 4
butchers delivery wagon. His build
and knowledge of the nag he drove
prompted a friend TO suggest that
frankie try jockeying for a living.
But after two days at the track at
Gravesend Bay he was thrown off the
lots for beating several other jockeys
into submission. As the Paulist
Fathers look after an athletic club
named in their honor, Father Morris
Su-StSNfu NhdN u.
He was a success from the start.
Nick Florio. a club trainer, took pains
with Genaro and within a year and
a half had his protege in shape to
represent the United States on its
boxing team at the Olympic Games.
He won the worlds amateur title for
his country. defeating J. Diveto, of
Denmark, in the final bout.
Upon his return to the United
States Genaro became a professional
and after three years has reached all
but the top rung of his class; the
worlds title is held by Jimmy Wilde,
Of England.
Still one Of his mothers financial
supporters, the new champion is anx-
ious. he says, to hurry through his
boxing career. win the worlds title
and take the lucre that goes with it,
and then sit down and think mp
something for business man to do.
