Bob Pastor, OF New York VINO
scrambled pugilistic dope by going
10 rounds with Joe Lewis before
the Brown Bomber won the heavy.
weight championship, of the werld,
hopes to add impetus to his drive
for a fight for the title by: stop
ping Buck Everett at Turner's
Arena tonight. The men square
off in a bout that is scheduled
for 10 rounds, but If you take the
word Of Pastor the patrons will
lose little sleep. IN,
Pastor plans to put Everett to
sleep. Why shouldn't he win by
q knockout, Pastor argues. He put
the crusher on Havelick in eight
rounds at Syracuse. He hammered
out a pugilistic lullaby on the chin
of Buck Tracy in two rounds. On
the proposition that all good
things run in threes, Bob thinks
he'll bring proceedings tonight to
an abrupt ending in about five
rounds. ....-..-g- ~
When the fight is won, and Pas
tor uses no conditionalS, Bob will
follow the pugilistic trails Wher-
ever they lead, fighting all comers.
CAN WHIP LOUIS
IT fought Louis the way Twas
instructed to fight him, going on
the defensive and studying
him." Pastor said. 'T learned
enough about Louis and his
style, his strength and weak
nesses to fit me for a fight with
him at any time. T feel conf
dent that I can beat Louis. and
I'm not talking to hear myself
talk.
Pastor made a favorable. i'm
preston on q crowd Of nearly 1000
boxing enthusiasts in a public
workout Saturday afternoon. He
showed pleasing turn Of speed,
| q good left hand and a sharp,
effective right cross. He boxed
with Tommy Tucker, who meets
Johnny Windsor, now operating
under the direction Of Ben evil

Everett promises to. give Pastor
plenty Of trouble. Buck ,stilled
Murray Kanner's clamor for en-
gagements with ranking fighters.
He worked in fine style against
Matte Brown in training drills last
week and, If anything, managed to
shade Brown in their training seS-
SionS.
ODDS FAVOR PASTOR
Everett. who dropped an iron
muddler's bar to don the 5-ounce
gloves of a fighter, always was
a dangerous hitter. His legs ap-
peared to be stronger than on
some Of his previous appearances
but Everett, because Of his recS'
less, head-on style Of fighting, al
ways will give a fair sort OF irn'
personation Of Leon Enrol.
Buck finds himself on the short
end Of the betting again, but that
is nothing new to him, and in no
way lessons his confidence in his
ability to win. The writer cannot
concede anything better than
fighting chance to Everett. -
The supporting card should be
of interest. Lou Jallos, Of 7Cleve-
Iland. will square off against Buddy
Carroll. Neither Of these boys
ranks in the Who's Who OF pugl-
Hem hit thew are active and am
bilious.
WHAT HO! THE "EYEs'.
The writer finds himself champ
ing on the bit awaiting the debut
of Johnny Windsor under the
aegis of the Evil Eye. The maleVo'
lent optic put himself on the spot
over the air the other night by
alleging that he had put. the
whammy, the ginger, the ooIuS
and the jinx on 200 fighters. He
contends that the baleful glare
never fails. Now he is in position
to give q demonstration Of what
he really can do when he bears
down. And he will be bearing
down tonight. -.
