Card
Called YuIe Present
For D. {. Ring Fans

Matchmaker Gabe Menendez has
arranged what he calls q Christmas
present for District fight fans in
the form Of tomorrow nights box
ing card at Turner's Arena, last
of 1947. The headline bout brings
in Frank Lacey, a pretty hot ring
article from Baltimore, against
Ken Stribling of Washington. The
UNDERGRAD will show several good
fighters, particularly Jimmy Cooper
and Johnny Arduini
This is chance for Stribling to
make up for his loss last month
to Johnny Walker of Philadelphia.
Before that he was doing okay with
knockouts over Frank Sweeney, Joe
Cannon and Kayo Williams and a
win over Billy Cooper. Stribling is
one of several fighters who have
moved along well in local middle
weight ranks this year. He's q COM
bination boxer-puncher and can
absorb lot of punishment with
out backing away.
He'll have to be pretty good to
take care of Lacey, however. Here
is a clever boxer and hard hitter.
In Baltimore he is regarded as a
real conner. He's fought only once
in Washington, and on that occa-
sion decisioned Bee Bee Washing
ton. He early had decisioned the
same fighter in Baltimore, where
he also got the nod over Frank
Sweeney, the same who beat Bee
Bee last week at the arena.
Particularly attractive on the
supporting program are the Cooper
and Arduini fights. Cooper, a tai
ented jabber, kayoed Puggy King
recently and this week goes against
Lucky johnson Of Philadelphia.
Arduini, a top amateur here for
several years who recently turned
pro, boxes Myron Dickerson Of
Philadelphia. Both are five-round-
ers.
Another five pits Johnny Hans
bury against Melvin Wade, while
fours are George Maverick against
Joe Mosley and Jackie Ford against
Nose Herald. First fight is at
S:45 pm.

Chicago Rockets Lose
Franchise, but New
Owners Are Due
BY the Asseeiafsd Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The fran
chise of the Chicago Rockets was
terminated today but the All-Amer-
lea Conference announced that q
new group would be formed to con-
tinue challenging the Bears and
Cards OF the National League for
Chicago pro football patronage.
The franchise was taken over
temporarily by the conference and
the clubs draft rights will be pro-
tected at the annual meeting which
originally was scheduled to get
under way Monday.
Jonas Ingram, commissioner of
the 2-year-old loop, would give no
indication who would undertake to
finance the erstwhile Rockets next
season but from Chicago came re-
ports that Daniel r. Rice, grain
dealer, and Col. Henry Crown, presi-
dent Of the Materials Service Corp,
might be the majority stockholders.
William s. Toohey, president Of
the disposed group, attended to-
days club owners meeting and said
later that II probably will be con-
nected with new group in a minor
ity way"
This Is the third time the Chi
cago franchise ownership has trans
ferred in the two years of the
circuit. First John l.. Keeshin, Chi
cago trucking owner, operated it
and he sold to Toohey and John j.
Rrogan year ago. They prevailed
upon James H. (Sleepy JIM Crow
ley, their boyhood pal in Green
Bay, Wis, to give up his job as
commissioner of the conference to
take over as Rocket coach and gen.
eral manager.
Crowley resigned week ago after
the club had won but one game in
IA starts.
A year ago when the All-America
Conference owners met in Cleveland
they expelled Miami from the cir
cult and moved the franchise to
Baltimore.
As was the case then, all the
players contracts were taken over
by the Conference and the fran
chtse draft rights will be protected
by the loops officials.
Rice, mentioned as possible new
owner of the club, is associated with
Benjamin F. Lindheimer, part own
er of the Los Angeles Dons of the
AAC and general manager Of the
Arlington and Washington race
tracks, in various business ventures.
Rice Is reported as holding a few
shares of Dons' stock.

ference's schools, Oklahoma A. and
