What figures to be the hottest

team that has earned split with

jackpot when all those servicemen
come back They'll be in condition
and in the mood for a fight, and
most Of them will need some ready
cash, SO they'll naturally go in for
boxing. With interest built up, a

Attel likes the modern, stream

He's against over = the weight

old-fashioned artifce of "no-deci-
sion" bouts the trade was forced to
resort to in days when boxing was
illegal was much better to his way
of thinking 1t not only made for
better action but always gave the
challenger chance to cop the
crown on knockout. He couldn't
take the title if the bout went the
full distance. but he got it if he fat
