RING GOSSIP
 BY BILL HIGGINS
LARRIvEE-HOOD SCRAP
 EVOKES RING INTEREST

The Al Gainer- George Courtney match staged at the Phoenix ave- nue armory early this month was regarded by many as the match of the month" as far as Waterbury was concerned. But--the signing of Leo Larrivee and Billy Hood, of England, to meet here next Thurs day night seems to be an even more popular move on the part of Pro- moter George Mulligan. For many months boxing was in the doE drums in this city. The Gainer- Courtney embroglio did its share to reawaken interest in boxing. A near capacity crow sat in on the bout and roundly applauded the efforts of the minister's in an enthu. siastic manner that was reminis- cent of the crowds that used to jam the Field street armory when Kid Kaplan was earning his spurs eight or nine years ago.
 Thursday nights scrap between I4arrlvee, who incidentally will be making his first Waterbury ap- pearance since acquiring the New England middleweight crown, and Hood, generally recognized as England's greatest middleweight. should prove to be an even greater box office attraction. As rule we don't presume to act as an advisor but if you are planning to sit in on the Larrlvee-Hood bout and are willing to take the advice of one Whose sides have been pressed to- gether trying to get to the ticket office at the last minute, on more than one occasion, you will get your ticket for the scrap early.

to discovery of a 100000 abduction
ring and arrest of seven men was
revealed today by Chief Investigator
Pat Roche, of the states attorneys
office.
The blonde and handsome woman
is Mrs. Georgia Gecht, who with
her husband, DR.. Max Gecht, was
kidnapped Dec. 10 and held captive
more than sixty hours. The ply
sician paid $4,000 for his wife's re-
lease.
While States Attorney John A.
Swanson, Pat Roche, his chief in
vestigator, and several assistants
looked on, Mrs. Gecht and her
husband led the officers to the
isolated bungalow where they were
held captive, and there re-enacted
scenes of their Imprisonment.
Meanwhile, at the Congress hotel,
in a suite that resembled an armed
camp, were held Ward c. Swalwell,
former assistant states attorney,
and six others.

but naturally I was frightened"
Made Rendezvous
The bungalow, which was readily
identified by the couple, is half a
dozen blocks from any other build
ing and hidden from the street by
trees.
Mrs. Gecht said she noticed one
of her captors had become enam-

she would meet him after her re-

Roche said he was convinced the

nesses, fearing intimidation at

His deputies also sought two more
