has been fighting as pro for five years.
 Among Carlos recent victims are Dave Crawford, who recently whipped Jackie Callura; Bobby Rufdn and Bobbe Greene. He also held Frankie Rubino to draw.
 Ceubas faced Costantino twice, once in Holyoke short time ago. And many thought Carlos deserved at least a drawk in their Valley Arena clash. The Puerto Rican has never been kayoed.
 It was Wright who snapped Costantino's winning streak at 56, the unbeaten Lulu losing for the first time to the champ in a non- title tangle. Chalky also broke another long win streak the night he whipped Ray Lemay of San Francisco. Ray had up 46 victories before running afoul of the feather king.

MiddIeweights 10 Share Star Bout HOnOrs With
 Moore vs. FiOrellO

Promoter George Mulligan has lined up what appears to be the most pretentious fight card in sev- eral years for Thursday night at Buckingham hall.
 Jerry Fiorello, crowd-pleasing Brooklyn middleweight, and Larney Moore, rugged Valley Stream, L. l., 15O-pounder. are matched in an eight round bout that looms as 2 tossup.
 A second eight rounder will pit Sonny Horne, 18-year-old Niles, Ohio, welterweight. who has won 9 of his g professional starts, with Oscar Suggs, hard hitting Newport, R. T.. scrapper who has shown to good advantage in Waterbury on several occasions.
 Fiorello, a rough, tough club fighter, made hit in losing a close decision to Indian Gomez while Moore dropped a close decision to Irish Eddie Dolan and drew and won in two bouts with Indian Go- meg.
 Another McLarnin
 Horne will be making his first To- cal appearance but is touted by New York sports writers as a second Jimmy McLarnin. Sonny is not a cutie" of the Eddie Dolan type but is a clever boxer who punches hard with either hand.
 The red-headed Ohio lad has wins over Van McNutt, who recently kayoed Art Tatta at West Haven; Milton Kessler, fast rising New York welter; Larry Fontana and Jerry Fiorello. Sonny also made tre- mendous hit when he trounced heavier Jimmy Mandell on the re- cent Tami Mauriello-J Jimmy Bivins card at Cleveland.
 Tom Collins, veteran local negro welterweight, and Mike Lucas, former amateur champion of Penn sylvania, are paired in a six round CT while two fours will complete the card.

Eden Rejects Request
That Britain Protest
Speech by Franco
Sees No Value in Such
Action; Discusses
African Internees
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, Dec. Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden rejected
several strongly-worded sugges-
tions in the House of Commons
today that Britain protest
against Generalissimo Francisco
frances speech praising Musso-
lini and his message to Hitler ex-
pressing hope for an Axis victory
over Russia.
The Foreign Secretary said he saw
mo value" in such a protest.
In speech December the Span
ish leader cited Mussolini as lead
er who have given justice to the
Italian people by the Fascist revo-
luton and reasserted SPANS spir-
itual solidarity with Germany and
Italy in the struggle against what
he termed liberalism and capitalist
Imperialism
In a message to Adolf Hitler De-
cember 5, In response to birthday
greetings from the Fuehrer, Franco
expressed the wish that your arms
triumph in the glorious undertake
ing of freeing people from the Boil
shevik terror"
Mr.. Eden told the House that
members of the International Bril-
gade interned in North Africa as
enemies of the Axis after the COL
lapse of France in 1910 would not be
returned to Spain.
However, in response to several
questions. Mr.. Eden gave no details
regarding the release of anti-Axis
internees in that area. The Fight
ing French estimate that about
$4,000 persons are still held there,
mostly for opposition to Vichy's COL
liberation with Germany and that
very few have been released.
Miss Eleanor Rathbone suggested
that it was about time that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's request for the re-
lease Of prisoners was complied with
and Mr.. Eden replied that much
had been done already and he had
no doubt the authorities would do
their utmost.
