some interdepartmental pooling of
cars. From Capitol Hill has come
demand for general pooling in the
interest of efficiency and economy.

zivic Sound|y Beaten
All Way by Basora
In Detroit Bout
BY the Associated Press.

DETROIT, Oct. 16.-Former well
terweight champion FritZie Zivic OF
Pittsburgh suffered one of the most
decisive setbacks of his long ring
career when Jose Basora, rugged
Puerto Rican from New York,
punched out an easy 10-round
triumph last night. Basora weighed
151A, zivic, $50.
Zivic, who meets Jake La Motta Of
the Bronx in New York next month,
had hoped to match par for the
course on Basora-fve knockdowns
and an easy decision that La Motta
scored here recently. But Basora, a
2-to-1 underdog in the betting, didn't
give flat-nosed Fritzie a chance.
Couldn't Get Started.
Referee Elmer (Slim) McClelland's
scorecard gave Zivic the first round
and called one other even, the rest
going to BaSora. The two judges
gave Fritzie no rounds at all, but
conceded that two were even.
Between puffed lips and with his
left eye opened at two places, Zivic
had no protest.
Il just couldn't get started" he
muttered
Before 5000 fans who paid s13,380
and contributed S1,015 to boxing's
Service Athletic Fund, Basora piled
up long early lead, but most every
body thought Fritzies counter
offensive would start any moment.
1t didn't. Basora opened Zivics eye
in the fourth and seemingly grew
stronger as the bout progressed. In
the 10th he finished off by pounding
Zivic freely without bringing him
down.
Basora Peppers Zivic.
For 10 rounds Basora kept a stab
bing left in Fritzies face and he
frequently threw a stinging right
uppercut that drove the Pittsburgh
veteran back. Zivic tried to rally
in the ninth, but he just couldn't
get up full head Of steam.
In the third round of a scheduled
eight-round bout. Billy Miller of
Pittsburgh scored a technical knock
out of Bobby Mcintyre of Detroit,
