INTERNATIONAL BOXING BOUTS NEW PROPOSAL
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Stan COrrespOndent)


 Paterson, N. J, Jan. l6-CUP)- Abe J. Greene, president of the Na- tional Boxing Association, proposed today that international matches be revived as a wartime stimulant to Allied unity.
 Ills proposal, made simultaneously with the release of the MEAS quarterly ratings, suggested that international competition could be opened with United States match between flyweights Jackie Patterson of England and Dado Marine of Hawaii
 Such a match would not only re- vive interest in the nearly forgotten ll2-pound division, Gareene said, but 1t would recall for the worlds boxing fans the ring epic between Jimmy Wilde of England mad Pan- cho Villa of the Philippines, fought at New York in 1923.
 The proposed bout would be for the owrld flyweight title, like the Wilde-Villa battle, because Eng lands Patterson is recognized as champion by the N.B.A., and Ta- waii's Marino-of the U. s. Army Is rated runner-up,
 Greene disclosed that Col. Har- vey L. Miller, N.B.A. Secretary now with the Marines in Hawaii, had written warm praises Of Marine, whom he described as "a smashing, colorful boxer who flattens feather uyninhic hnra HtyitNH .,1a punch left hooks"
 Marine has offered to box Pat terSon for warm charity without pay; and Greene suggests that some American promoter attempt to stage the match fo ra fund to be used by wounded service men of England and America.
 Here are the top men in the N.B.A, quarterly ratings, with al visional champions listed first:
 Heavyweight-Joe Louis, Billy Conn, Joe Baksi, Jimmy Bivins, Melio Bettina, Lee e. Murray, Lee Oma,
 Light heaVyweight--Gus Lesne- - vich, Lloyd Marshall, Freddie Mills Anton Christoforidis, Johnny Colan Billy Soose, Ezzard Charles.

 The Robin-Old Timer fracas was never settled till the last whistle blew and no more than 3 points separated them at any time, The Robins held a one point lead at the end of the first and the second quarters while the Old Timers tied 1t all up p all at the end of three stanzas. Ralph Daddesio and Fred Coelho matched hoops and the score was still tied going into the final minute of the game. At this time Fudgy Feliciani sank his third foul shot to put the Oldsters out front and the Robins were unable to get the ball through the nets again before time ran out. The old Timers made good on out of ' foul shots while the Robins sank only two out of etight tries from the free line and this was more than the difference of the game. Feliciani With seven, Daddesio with six, and Polletta with six set the scoring pace for the winners while Coelho was high man of the game scoring ten counters in the column of the hard fighting Robins.
