LOS ANGELES, Jan. 1O.-There
seems to be some interstate dissen-
sion on the issue at stake, but one
thing seems certain-Hammerin
Henry. Armstrong and Baby Ariz-
mendi will maui each other around
for 10 rounds or less tonight, and if
the affair is anything like their four
previous encounters, no one will be
disappointed in the amount of action
provided.
The bout is billed as world
welterweight championship contest,
with Armstrong defending the crown
he won from Barney Ross last
summer.
The California Athletic Commits
sion solemnly sanctioned it as title
60. but the New York Boxing Com
mission just as solemnly sent regrets.
Apparently the picture of two light
innate lightweights fighting for the
147-pound championship strained
the credulity of that sagacious body.
Weight Makes Arizmendi Puzzle.
Just how Arizmendi can put on
enough weight to become a welter-
weight challenger, without assuming
the shape of an inflated football,
must remain an unanswered problem
until today, he has never scaled
more than 1873 for his best efforts,
and 1t will take his best efforts and
then some to stick around with
Armstrong for 10 rounds.
The Arizmendi-Armstrong feud
has been going on-at lighter
weights-for several years. They

Conn Branded Unwise
In Giving Aposto|i
Longer Battle
DurobIe Fred Will Wear
Bill Out in IS Rounds,
Critics Are Convinced
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-Much as
they admired Billy Conn's fighting
in his local debut against Fred
Apostoli last Friday night, a ma
jority Of the critics think the
Pittsburgh beauty made a mistake
in signing right back for a 15-
round return engagement on Feb
ruary 10.
They believe that Apostoli, though
again conceding some 10 pounds,
will be able to wear Conn down
over the longer route and beat his
ears off toward the finish. Apos-
toll, as tough and durable as they
come, was carrying the BATTLE to
his 21-year-old rival in the closing
rounds the other night, slugging
away steadily. while Conn was fight
ing only in SpurtS.
Conn Not to Exceed 168.
The pair have signed what is
known as ght-heavyWeight con-
tract for the return, which means
they may weigh up to ITS pounds
so far as the State Athletic Com
mission is concerned. However
Conn again made a "gentleman's
agreement" to scale 168, give or
take a pound" Apostoli is a nat
ural 160-pounder.
Larry White. Apostoli's manager
was asked what he would do If Conn
came in at. say, 172. Would he GO
through with the fight?
Il suppose So" he said. "but ]
would look awful hard at Johnny
Ray (Conn's manager. I'm not
worried, though. Johnny is man
of his word"
The consensus seems to be that
Conn. having made such SEN
sational Madison Square Garden
debut with a unanimous decision
over Apostoli, should pitch imme-
diately into the light-heavyWeights
and leave Apostoli strictly alone.
Bad Man in Return Bout.
Apostoli is good man to dodge
the second time, as such scrappers

will be glad to testify. Lee gave the
former bellhop a close brush in
their first meeting here, but when
he tried it again he was lucky tc
escape with his life. Corbett beat
Apostoli on the coast, but when he
came East to demonstrate his
technique Freddie knocked him
out.
In a way, the return fight was
forced on Conn The first thing
Apostoli said after the decision
was awarded to Conn the other
night was Hes a good boy, but
1 would have licked him in Is
rounds"
When the word was carried in to
Conn the young Irishman, flushed
with victory, declared his willing
ness to meet Apostoli again any
time and at any distance. Pro-

1errapins Confident,

In Ring Openers
Maryland Invodes Duke,
c. U. Is ViIIunovo's
Host Saturday
BY BURTON HAWKINS,

The robust collegiate boxing riv-
airy between Catholic University
and Maryland will reach the SIM
mering stage Saturday when those
whacking squads launch their re-
spective campaigns at home and
abroad. At Maryland Coach Heinie
Miller views a rosy future, but the
Cardinals Eddie La Fond is more
conservative.
Received rather rudely last year,
the Terps nevertheless are heading
into their Saturday engagement with
Duke at Durham with confidence,
the Blue Devils having lost to South
Carolina, 60.
Missing from C. us undefeated
team of last year are four veterans
and the gaps they created still
haven't been filled to La Fond's sat-
lsfaction. However, Eddie isn't writ
ing the season in red ink yet.
La Fond's fighters aren't lacking
In confidence, or at least his 1861
pound representative isn't. This
worthy, Fred Slant, is one of three
experienced noggin-knockers on
Catholics team, and the burden al
ready has him in snarling mood.
Stant's Confidence Unshaken.
"They tell me this Newton Cox
at Maryland is a great fighter this
year." La Fond informed Slant to-
day. They say he'll knock you
dead with his left" Slant refused
to be impressed.
c. U. is noting with regret the
absence of Leo Katalinas, heavy
weight; Sully Greco middleweight:
Fred Mix, welterweight, and Tex
Guinan, featherweight, but has the
nucleus OF a fine team in Slant,
Dave Bernstein, national intercel-
leglate bantamweight champion, and
Jay Turner, light-heavyweight. Be-
yond that nucleus, though, the situ-
alton is sour.
La Fond had depended on Joe
Bunsa, crack 155-pounder, being in
the lineup when the Cards face
Vlllanova at C. U. gym Saturday, but
recurrence OF an old injury will keep
MIN idle for the season Eddies re-
naming candidates are CANDLES.
Maryland Two Deep.
Tony Messurri and Nestor Martinez
who experienced only mediocre sue
cess last season, will plug the feath-
erweight and lightweight notches.
respectively, while La Fond still
doesn't know if he will risk sending
Johnny Mcdonald or Joe Raben-
horst, 145-pound candidates, into the
ring due to inexperience. jerry
Strang may make the grade as a
l55-pounder, but Rocco Pirro and
Julius Stranges. scrapping for the
heavyweight berth, still are crude
specimens.
Maryland, two deep in every class
except the heavyweight, exudes op-
timism. Benny Alperstein has been
national intercollegiate lightweight
champion for two years and II he
doesn't go undefeated it will be a
surprise to the Terps.
Israel Leites or Morton Steinbach
Will swing in the light t-heavyweight
class, with the highly respected Cox
at 165 pounds. Frank Cronin, crack
quarter-miler, has inherited the l55-
pound job, with the experienced
Nate Askin at 145 pounds and Bob
Bradley at 1877 George Dorr again
will scrap at 120 pounds, although
Johnny Harm may see much action

One of the few former collegians
who have been able to stick around

has been a sensation but has made
a living wage through winning more
than his share. He has cleaned a
small following through his local

register an upset.
