Each became as loud as 10 from
watching the furious antics of
Frank Keaney's amazingly tireless
hoopsters. During the past 20
seasons, his teams have won 264
out of 309 games but this current
one appears to be his masterpiece.
Rallying behind Keaney's 27O-
pound son, Warner, these Rams
swing into action as swiftly and as
savagely as a panzer unit. Warner
gets the ball, filings it the length
of the court and his greyhound
teammates race after it. One of
them generally arrives in time to
take it off the backboards and toss
it through the hoop with deadly
accuracy. That procedure goes on
many times in every minute of
action.
The beautiful simplicity of this
system has amazed all of Keaney's
coaching colleagues. What do you
do about a defense?" they ask.

Clear Claim
Bout With Lesnevich
Demanded of Victor
Over Tough Bettino
BY the Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 14.-The Ma
tional Boxing Association geared
its machinery today to grind out
an 'undisputed" world light-heavy-
weight champion as Anton Christo-
foridis, the speedy warrior from
Greece. clamped on the title belt.
The handsome European pounded
out a close 15-round decision over
EX-champion Milo Bettina of
Beacon, NJ Y, in sizzling bout
here last night before 6,499 spec
tators
In declaring the match a title
bout, the N. B. A. stipulated that

The New York State Athletic
Commission still recognizes Billy
Conn. who grabbed the title from
Bettina, as champion, but the N.
B. A. says he abdicated by failing
to defend the title. The N. B. A.
is top boxing authority in "a States.
Scaling 174 to enjoy a 5la-pound
weight advantage, SouthpaW Bettina
started fast and showed promise of
wearing Christoforidis down. How
ever, the European staged a bril-
liant rally midway in the fight

the New Yorker realing in the
eighth round.
Both judges and Referee Joe Sed-
ley, who took one round away from
Bettina for butting, gave the fight
to the Greek. The Associated Press

rounds and Bettina four, with five
even.
New Champ Hard Hitter.
Bettina, squirting from an almost
closed eye, said after the fight:
"Christoforidis hits harder than
Conn and is much better puncher.
However. Billy is a lot smarter"
Jimmy Grippe, Bettina's manager,
was demanding a return bout from
all the promoters in sight and main

especially objected to his fighter

title, drove another spike in his
claims with technical knockout

of the Brooklynnite's damaged eye.

and calling upon all the ring wisdom

Apparently so badly beaten that

1t was a stirring finish that
brought cheers from a capacity
crowd of $500 who paid s16662 at
the arena and earned Salica the nod
of both judges, Eddie Loughran and
Harry Laskey. Referee Irving
Kutcher called it a draw, but since
the Judges agreed his vote did not
count.

"Hymie did it," he went on, re-
ferring to the finish.
Yes" chimed in Hymie Caplin.
Salica's manager, II told him to go
out and win the 14th for Brooklyn
and the 18th for his father and fam
lily. I told him they wouldn't let
him in if he went home beaten.
You only need one eye to lick this
guy, I says. So he goes out and
does it,
Stunned, Forte Claims.
Forte butted Lou in the eye In
the third, and by the end Of the
sixth he can't see out Of it. That
spoiled our plan of fighting, be-
cause I wanted Lou to just jab until

Forte, who knocked Salica down
for a nine-count and beat him in

say much.
He stunned me in the last round"
he acknowledged glumly. I'D like
to fight him again"

tributed Mickey Diamond, Forte's
manager.
Referee Kutcher called a doctor
into the ring to examine Salica's
eye at the end of the 10th round.
