 Beau Jack, busy young Georgia Negro, took a close and widely dis puted 10-round decision over the former welterweight king just month ago tonight.
 Pittsburgh Fritzie is known as "two-timer" because he nearly al- ways improved his Showings in sec ond tits with opponents--with chaps like Freddie Cochrane, Milt Aaron, Ruben Shanks, Lew Jenkins, Henry Armstrong and Al Davis However, his two-tlme magic failed against Ray Robinson.
 Near Riot
 The previous ZiVic-Jack fight was so close and bitterly contested that promoter Mike Jacobs had to turn on the Garden lights to prevent a threatened riot. And the betting would be close on tonights result had not something new been added to the encounter--two rounds. To- nights distance is 12 rounds instead of 10. Those two additional sessions, coupled with Young Jacks blister- ing pace, are expected to prove dis astrous to 20-year-old ZiVic, who run out of gas in the 10th round on Feb. 6. Had zivlc won that clos- ing round, the decision probably would have been his.

 K. 0. Wanted
 Now tho two are back again, this time over q longer distance. Each hopes to eliminate the necessity Of q decision on the part of the referee and judges by scoring Q knockout And lt's possible tho fight may end that way because both Beau Jack and Hivlc possess kayo wallops.
 Hivic thinks he won the last fight but admits he waged the wrong kind of battle, paced himself badly, and let Beau Jack do too much Of the leading,
 1T lot Beau Jack set the pace and I let him have too much of his own way in there" says ziVlc "f have been around long enough to know better than that and this time I'll run the fight myself The best thing about Beau Jack iS con- ditIon, Well, I've got condition too for this fight and I know Q lot more about fighting than he does"
 Tlvlc Insists also thnt he hurt Beau Jack several times in the first fight.
 "1n the fourth round ! doubled him up with q hook to the body and in the seventh landed q right to the jaw which made his knees shake. A fighter can tell when he hurts his opponent even though tho people on the outside don't sec it I know I hurt Beau Jack but wasn't nhle to follow through bee cause tho bell rang each time. Tint saved him but this time maybe he won't be go lucky"
