BY JOE HALL

NEW YORK, Jan. 27-Hr--Rocky
Grsziap9, the midd eweight fighter
with the 'Rock-a-Bse' punch, has
admitted he was offered 500, 900 to
throw his scheduled Dec. q figh,
with Ruben Cowboy Shank Of
Denver, District Attorney Frank S
Hogan said Monday.
The Madison Square Garden bout
was called off Dec. "a after Gra-
ziano had reported to the State
Athletic Commission that he had
suffered a back injury in training.
Hogan declared bluntly- the in
vestigation into gambling activities
in the New York sports world lis
more general than is indicated in
this fight. | don't think GraZiano
has told us everything. I think he
even might be able to tell US some
names. I think he could tell US
more"
Other developments on the gam
bling front Monday included:
l. Alvin j. Paris, the dappel
playboy convicted last month of
trying to .'fix'' the New York

fore a grand jury, the District
Attorneys office disclosed.

disposition to talk, an indictment
on bribery and conspiracy charges
was returned against Harvey
Stemmer, who is now serving a
prison term for a conviction in con
nection with an attempt to bride
Brooklyn College basketball play

3. Hogan announced indictments
were handed up AGAINST two other

identities were withheld pending
their arrest.

Graziano-Shank bout for next FRI
day.
After spending 20 minutes Mon
day before the Grand Jury which

did not elaborate.
The District Attorney said that
Graziano told him the 100000 Of

nasium by. persons whose names
he did moi know but whom he could
identify.
The top-ranking middleweight
challenger, whose explosive fists
have attracted more than a million
dollars in gates in the past two
wears, also told Hogan he had been
approached by gamblers in con-
nection with his fight with the late
AL Dummy Davis, a bout which
Craziano won.
Hogan said Graziano told this
story of the bribe offer for the
fight with Shank, a boxer ranked
far below Graziano:
The person making the 500. 900
offer said that he would see the
fighter in a few days after first
mentioning the deal. In two or
three days, this person and two
others saw Graziano again and
asked him if he was going
Through with the proposition"
Graziano told them he was think
ing about it and said IN see YOU.
Later, he made up his mind not
to 70 through with the deal because
he was confident he could defeat
Shank"
