NARRACA NSETT
CUTS PURSES OF
.'43 SPRING MEET
Minimum Race Reward Re-
duced to $500; Stake
Events to Pay $500

Pawtucket, r. T., March 2.-(UP)
A war-caused reduction in purses
during the spring meeting at Mar
ragansett Park and a change in
stake race conditions were an
nounced today but officials said that
purses would be adjusted should
conditions warrant such o move.
President James E. Dooley of the
Narragansett Racing Association
said the action was taken to place
the sport on the soundest possible
basis In view Of transportation cur
tailmentS and the modified condi-
tons under which the April 10-May
8 meeting must be conducted.
Purses for all but the five stake
races will be $500, 1t was said, a vast
reduction for the track which last
autumn set a purse minimum OF
$1,000. On most days there were
purses of $500 or $500.
This year the five spring handi-
caps-the spring, the Roger Will
liams, the Bristol, the Rhode Island
and the Blackstone 'Valley-will have
purses of $4,000 scheduled.
Five Saturdays
Track officials said that all these
races would be raced over the same
distances as previously and with the
same aged horses but will be re-
written so as to convert them into
overnight handicaps. One will be de-
cided on each of the five Saturdays
of the meeting.
In commenting on the change
Judge Dooley said that should bus
mess exceed our present expecta-
tons there will be no need to
petition the management for res
toration of the former purse levels.
That step will be taken volun-
tarily. :"
He said he has already obtained
options for horse transportation of
fans to the track If it proves neces-
sary.

Zivic Has Drawn
$3.50, 900 Into MISC
For Ten Fights

New York, March 2 - II you go
back three years on the newspaper
clippings OF FritNe Zivic you un-
cover the startling information that
zivic, early in 1910, was considered
close to the end Of his career as q
fistic performer.
He had by then been campaign
ing for ten years, was rated q fair
to middling welterweight, but Lack
ing the stun to win q championship.
Boxing men agreed he had a few
good fights left in his system but
were convinced he would hang up
his gloves by the end Of 1910.
Zivic did hang up pair Of gloves
toward the close Of 1910 but they
were the ones with which, in Octo-
Der Of that year, he had won the
world welterweight title from Henry
Armstrong. For Zivic, far from be-
ing "all through" in 1910, was just
beginning to show his stuff. He has
been showing 1t with tremendous
success ever since and now boxing
men have Just ABOUT decided that
while WIVES may come and Zivics
may 60, Fritzie goes on forever.
Meets Beau Jack
Zivic boxed at Madison Square
Garden three times in 1910, three
times in l941, three times in 1912.
He has already made one appear
arlce this year in the Garden ring
and on Friday night he makes his
second in 1943 start In the same
arena when he opposes Beau Jack,
world lightweight champion. in q
contest scheduled for twelve rounds.
This Is q return meeting, Beau Jack
having won a disputed verdict over
the Pittsburgh veteran in ten rounds
q month ago.
Few fighters in recent years have
been so popular with New York
fans as has Fritzie zivic. In ten
main-event appearances at the Gar
den he has attracted close to $780,.
900 into the box -offlce for an aver.
age Of close to $4,000 show.
That puts him way ahead Of even
such stellar gate attractions as Ray
Robinson who in eleven headline
starts, drew q total of $348, 900 into
the Garden for an average of about
$3l 800. For a guy who was sup
posedly washed up" three years ago
Fritzie Zivic Is doing slightly better
than all right.

Coach SchOfield to Stay at

Thompson in Charge
BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

Added to the disadvantage Of

the state, in the opinion Of the
tournament committee, Crosby's
1913 hoop squad, following a team
that last year went to the state
semi-finals at New Haven, will be
without the services Of its coach,
Bill Schofeld, who Is Ill at home.
and confined to bed by his physician,
DR.. Daniel Savers.
After effects Of a tonsilectomy Is
believed to have stirred up a throat
infection, which produced LOG tenn

deld was reported much better this
morning. though the fever had not
left him. However, his chances Of
-oing to New Haven with his team
were definitely out Of the question

for three or four days.

vas undetermined at press-hour to-
day; though White sat on the
Crosby bench with Schofield last
vear during the state tournament at
New Haven.
Tonight, Crosby is paired with
Bassick high Of the Park City at
o'clock in the Payne Whitney gym
nasium Of Yale university. In an
earlier game, Torrington Is paired
with Roger Ludlowe high Of Fair
Geld. coached by George Taylor of
Waterbury. Harold w. Swafileld,
>residert Of the Connecticut Inter-
,cholasti conference is principal Of
he Fairfield school.
Possibility Of using Jocko Conlon.
Crosby co-captain, was also small
today because Of an ankle injury
which means that Teddy Kobrin or
Joe Smith will team up with Ugo
D'Agostino in the forward slots:
with Bannon at center; Fasanelli
and Reynolds In the rear court.
Just how strong Bassick is for
tournament competition is not too
certain. for the Bridgeporters were
knocked OF by Fairfield's Roger
Ludlowe last weekend. However
Bassick and Torrington, which
meets Fairfield are the pre-game
favoriLes; as the Torrirgt0n club is

Gongs sounded throughout the
gymnasium, ending three minutes
Of work for all concerned. A hush
settled over the punch emporium
as II the wheels of mill suddenly
had stopped turning. One handler
was swabbing the lightweight cham
pion's face with towel, while an
other removed his robe.
We chatted with Beau Jack, we
asked him If he felt more confident,
now that he held a decision over
Zivic, the best man he ever fought.
Did he feel more sure Of himself?
May BE Easier
Beau Jack yanked his tapped hands
out of the robe sleeves and said,
mo, don't see no difference.
wuz always confident Of my strength
becuz I always trained so hard.
But I never got cocky becuz
licked anybody. Zivic gave me my
hardest fight, but I expected that"
He grinned and added, But I'll
have to admit felt pretty good
after licked him. I hope it'll be
easier this time"
Most of the experts believe 1t will
be easier because a new Beau
Jack will be In the ring Friday
night-a man who didn't feel like

ton in New York state by knock
