 Heavy Henry Gartzmann, down. town business man, got away from customers looking for top-grade Scotch, long enough to get in a few days fishing Up around Canaan. He writes: you should have seen the ones that got away" That's the worst of using LOX for trout bait . {. If the state armory is okayed for professional boxing next winter in Waterbury, which seems likely, according to the new athletic com- missioner Billy Prince, local fans can look forward to some real at fractions, which could not be pro- cured in the past because of the limited seating capacity of Bucking- ham Hall ..

He did a good job last week in the Gar den. Heavier, but blond and good looking as ever, Handsome Harry, a German American, is still popular with the fans .. Frank Sinatra (the VERCE) was in the fifth row for the Joyce -Ruffin shindig; but saw little action because of being beseiged by feminine autograph Frankie, not long back from an overseas entertainment jaunt to cheer up the Tanks in the European theater of war, looks tough, phy- sically, and could use a couple of blood transfusions and about ten pounds of gristle, for his very lean, flat-chested frame .. the price scale for MSGs Janior- Greco box ing show tonight is "Jim Dandy" as anxious Angelo Rossi is won't to remark.

 It is more than somewhat doubt ful that Youngstown's young Tony Janiro can hold off Johnny Greco of Montreal very long when the pair go at 1t tonight in the Garden. Off their records and type of opposi- tion, the 13 to 10 favorite's figure in Greco's favor seems like quite betting bargain and a fairly easy way of picking up $100 bill if you have $130 to put up in case Janiro gets the decision by outpointing Greco all the way, for he will never outpunch him Sal Bartolo of Boston, the NBA champ, makes the Garden next week Friday against Freddie Russo, the up and. coming
