RAY ROBINSON,
FRED CADRAL IN
BOSTON BATTLE
Negro Ring Star Strong
Choice to Win as Fans
Hope for Upset Tonight

Boston, April S0,--tUP) - Sugar
Ray Robinson. "uncrowned" king of
the worlds welterweights, engages
In 10 scheduled rounds of tete-a-
tete at Boston Garden tonight with
Freddy Cahral of Cambridge. a
pleasant little Portuguese American
whose principal equipment for the
meeting will be confidence and In
Spiratlon,
So far as the negro soldier is con-
cerned. his initial Boston visit will
consist Of picking up a bit of loose
cash while ON furlough from Mitchell
Field. J.. I.
Even the long-shot players de-
mard l00-to-40 before they'll dis
cuSs anything but Robinson vic
tory. But that's not unreasonable
when a glance at the record book
shows the visitor has only q single
loss in lSl professional and amateur
engagements.
Title sFRoxen'
Experts say the only reason Rob-
iEscn hasn't captured the worlds
title is because champion Freddy
Cochran is in the navy and the Ma
tional Boxing Association has fr0Z-
en- his crown for the duration.
OF late. Robinson's principal
trouble has been in finding oppo-
nenas-particularly those with draw
ing power enough to warrant a good
gate. Cabral is one OF those.
Advance ticket sale indicates that
the house" will be better than av-
erage. the fans apparently hoping
for an upset by Cabral. the best local
welter since Worcester produced Lou
Brouillard.
