Vic Dellicurti knocked out
Eddie RoSSi in the second round
OF a scheduled 10-round bout IN
what, putting it mildly, was a dis

A crowd OF 1,243 disgruntled

was marked by two bouts de-

decided that the fighters were not

third round. Lee dropped to the
canvas three times before the
official finally decided il was an

NOT WILLIS FAULT
II was no fault OF Willis that
the contest ended unfortunately.
After two rounds, Lee, IL seemed,
was satisfied with an early end

Boxing Commissioner John
Hettche today was investigating a
report that Lee suffered two
broken ribs in the contest.
The ending in the other no.

round when referee Johnny Weoer
suspected that James Young re-
tired without pressure in sched-
uled four-rounder with AL Ellis.
The sharpshooting Ellis. fighting
in only his second pro battle. was
obviously too much for Young.
Both Lee and Young have been
suspended and their purse for last

System Changed
On Issuing
Gas 10 Farmers

Beginning Friday war price and
ration boards will change Their
working methods in issuing "E" and
"R" gasoline coupons which go TO
farm users for non highway
vehicles.
Under the new system" SAID
Paul Barksdale d'Orr, OPA ration
chief for eight southern California
counties, "the boards can use their
discretion as to whether they Will
issue these "E" and "R" coupons
on a six-months' need basis as in
the past or release them in INSTALL
ments. There is a double advantage
on the installment plan-a closer
control which will help control
black markets and release farmers
from the necessity of guessing SO
far ahead as to their highway
needc.
Farm gasoline requirements are
naturally dependent upon the
weather, and past experiences have
shown that requested planned to
serve the whole six months were
often greater than the actual
needs. The issuance of gaso-
line here has been one black mar
ket factor, since many of the extra
coupons have shown up in its trad
ing.
Nov, the farmer will apply as
usual, but the board has the
privilege of issuing only part OF
the asked for supply. Further de-
liveries to the same user can fol-
low when the farmer has used this
allotment, and may either take up
all of the gasoline originally asked
for CT only such part as the board
feels will be needed to serve the
use for the remainder of the six
months period. The farmer will
not need TO make any formal ap-
plication with his second request
for fuel"
