Judge Sets Aside
RobinsonyVerdict

CHICAGO ANP) - A $4,000
breach OF contract verdict against
Ray Sugar" Robinson. weller
weight title contender. was set
aside here last week by municipal
court Judge William v. Daley.
A jury awarded the verdict In
favor Of Fred Irwin, New York
promoter, on November 8. who
claimed to have entered into .
verbal contract with Robinson
last June 3, to receive IS per cent
Of the fighters receipts for act
ing as his manager and repre-
sentative in two fights.
THE JURY HAD made its de-
cislon without sufficient proof of
the contracts existence, Judge
Daley ruled, and added that Irwin
had given conflicting testimony
as to the scope and the obligations
OF the contract. The judge also
held that Twins attorneys had
conducted themselves in a 'preju-
dicial manner" during the trial.
Irwin filed his sHit following the
