Two Claim La Motta
In Mixup Of Pilots
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Mar. 13.-The Illinois
Athletic Commission says it will
hold up 1913 per cent of Jack La
Motta's purse after his March 26
fight here with George Costner OF
Cincinnati until it can determine
which of two men is managing the
New York middleweight.
1t. Gen. Roy D. Keehn said last
night the commissions action came
after it had received a letter from
a New York attorney which assert
ed Mike Capriano was legal man.
ager of La Motta. The letter also
contained photostatic copy of an
agreement between Capriano and
La MOtta indicating it would not
expire until 1949.
However, Keehn said, other infor-
nation from New York asserted
Capriano once signed release max
ing La Motta free agent.
Jimmy Murray has been on the
commissions records as La Motta's
manager since the fighter first took
out license here in 194l.
keehn explained that La Motta
would get 662s per cent of his purse
figuring the other 1919 per cent as
the managers share, so the fighter
will lose nothing in the litigation.
I'VE want to learn the one to
whom the managers share right

the seventh and ninth, and we'll
call the 10th even. Finazzo won the

Sweeney Soon Stops Fleming.
There was no question, however,
about young Frank Sweeney's VIC
tory over Leroy Fleming. Sweeney
put Leroy on the canvas for nine

right hands in the second and then
laid his man away at 100 of the
third with a neat left hook. The

National Hockey Loop
Critics Vary Widely
On 0fside Rule
BY the Associated Press.

National Hockey League critics
have had picnic this season at
the expense of the offside passing
rule-the one that authorizes the
present colorful ice-surface paint
scheme.
Now, If the considered opinions of
team coaches carry any weight that
paint scheme-and the RULES due
for considerable revision at the next
session of league moguls.
The rule provides that attacking
players may pass the puck from be-
hind their own blue line to a team
mate at the red center line without
mourning an offside penalty. The
pass must be completed before the
puck reaches the center line.
Dissatisfaction with the setup has
been general, but here are a few of
the outstanding suggested improve
ments.:
Coach Frank Boucher of New
York: Eliminate the blue lines. We
tried hockey with just red center
line as long ago as l941 and it worked
fine. 1t is an asset to the f1ve-man
ganging attack and eliminates
pitching the puck across the blue
line, as many teams do now"
Coach Hap Day of Toronto: Take
out the red line. 1t was inserted
two years ago to stop throwing the
puck and has failed to do that.
suggest we return to what we had
before the war"
Coach Dick Irwin of Montreal:
Keep all the lines we have but
relax the rules Under the present
setup a pass to player from be-
hind his blue line has to be received
on his own side of the center line.
We should allow the puck to cross
the line ahead of the player without
an offside penalty We tried it in
exhibitions and 1t speeds up the
game"
Johnny Gottselig of Chicago: MY
idea is to wipe all the markings of
the ice. Get rid of the two lines
men, have two referees instead of
one and let the boys 60 to it."
Meanwhile, the struggle for the
fourth-place playoff berth continues
tonight when the Boston Bruins
engage the Detroit Red Wings at
Boston. The Bruins will seek to
enlarge their two-point lead over
Chicago by upsetting the powerful
Wings.

Griffith recalled that the President

Griffith also said Mr.. Roosevelt

Central won their battle with Eau

The unbeaten Eagles put up a stiff
defense after the half and won

Southern Illinois followed almost
exactly the same pattern in running
Washburn's hopes of getting to the
quarter finals. The score was 27-27

Any one have good, foolproof
method of scoring boxing matches?
Take it around to the New Munich
pal Center and sell it to the Boxing
Commission. The ring boards pres
ent system doesn't work-as a large
part of a record crowd of 2,028 fans
at Turner's Arena last night will
testify.
The fans gathered around the
ring and booed loudly for five min
utes following the 10-round decis-
ion given Bee Bee Washington,

Johnny Finazzo, 167-pound Balti-
more battler. And believe it or not.
the verdict of Referee Charley
Reynolds, DR.. o. U. Singer and Bob
Eller was unanimous.
Referee Reynolds, who gave Wash
ington "a to SO edge on his score
sheet, explains it this way: "Finazzo
was connecting plenty, but lot of
those punches we're blocked or
landed on the arms. Washington
had the better of it in landing clean
blows. In fact. Mr.. Finazzo hit me
almost as often as he landed on
Washington"
Press Strong for Finazzo.
DR.. Singer points out that the
present system of scoring Endorsed
by the commission gives much credit
for straight pointboxing, regard
less of the effect of the blows. In
DR. Singers book, Washington won
by "a to 90 margin.
Bob Eller, who had no comment,
gave it to Two Bees on "a to 90
count.
On the other hand, a canvas of
the press bench failed to uncover
any score sheets that gave Wash
ington the nod. In fact, most scribes
had Finazzo ahead by good mar
