IT OVER
BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Jan. l0.-This
IN community has received the
staggering announcement that Shar-
key and Scott are TO fight in Miami
next month instead of in this vi
cinity with all the mental agony and
soul torture of a condemned
prisoner who just has received word
from the Governor that it was all a
terrible mistake and would he mind
hopping over to the mansion and
splitting tankard of hot tea?
While the Sharkey person rates a
fair sort of standing hereabouts, his
business associate in the forthcom-
ing Florida venture does not rate at
all, and If he never fights again
around here it will be- as the anus

TIME chief reason nobody in New
Il York cares whether Scott fights
in Miami or Madagascar, as long as
he doesn't fight here again, is that
the impression still persists that he
got away with murder when he
claimed foul in the second round
against Won Porat. leaving 10000
customers and a 10000 house With
nothing TO show for their invest
ment beyond a simmering melan
choly and a growing realization that
Barnum was more than correct.
What Scott will do against Sharkey is
something else. Rating him on his past
performances he figures to pass out at the
slightest manifestation Of belligerencY on
the part Of the Boston COB. There are
fighters who can't take It and fighters who
won't Scott seems qualified for member
