Punch Backing Boxing
Makes Maxim Heavy
Choice Over Parks

joey Maxim, one of the promis-
ing young boxers now in the Army
and who is being hailed as COM
ing champion, makes his first ap-
pearance in Washington tomorrow
night when he faces George Parks,
District Negro heavyweight, in the
10-rounder topping the fight pro-
gram at Turner's Arena.
Maxim is big favorite over Parks,
but the latter has shown himself
no pushover against boys his weight.
He lost to Lee Oma in his last
outing, which is no disgrace, but
before that he chilled Gus Mirman
in two rounds and Vince Pimpinella
in six, showing that he has a
potent punch when able to connect.
Oma, however, used a left jab ef-
fectively in keeping Parks beyond
range. The fact that Maxim also
has talented left is another item
helping make him decided
favorite
Maxim Has Telling Punch.
In addition to his boxing talent,
Maxim also has a potent punch.
Recently he chilled Claudio Villar
in six heats. He has won 81 Of
36 professional engagements, while
as an amateur he turned in more
than 100 victories. Among his VIC
TINS he has defeated such name
fighters as Red Burman, Nate
Bolden, Lee Oma, Bill Peterson,
Booker Beckwith, Anton Christo-
foridis, Lou Brooks (twice) and
Curtis Sheppard (twice). Beckwith
and Sheppard each beat him once,
as did Jimmy Bivins.
Maxim Is a private first class in
the Army and is stationed at Pope
Field, Fort Bragg, N. c., as physical
instructor for Army aviators. Thus
he has more chance than most
Army men to keep in boxing trim.
Tough Bout for Mollis.
The semifeature tomorrow night
is the six-rounder between Bee Bee
Washington and Tommy Mollis.
Mollis, veteran of Is of more years
in the ring, has won four straight
matches here in his comeback at

he goes against a strong, smart
youngster who has chance of end
ing this string.
Two other SKIES are being ar
ranged by Matchmaker Gabe Men,
