Bee Bee Now No Honey
As Ring Attraction;
Beaten by Lacey

When popular. crowd-pleas1ng
Bee Bee Washington attracts less
than 1.100 paying customers to a
fight, it's time for check 10 see
what's happening. For the past two
winters Bee Bee has packed Tur-
ner's Arena every time he laced on
the mitts, but last night in his first
indoor show this season he did no
better than any of the others who
have shown on six previous Turner
programs this fall.
Bee Bees personal following used
to fill the place regardless of who
he was fighting, and against we'll
liked Frank Lacey Of Baltimore,
who had beaten him once and who
took another split decision last
night, it figured to be close to the
Arenas 2,100 capacity. But last
night 1t was Just the usual turnout
of little overe1 900 faithful. A poll
Of ringsiders gives various answers:
Says Matchmaker Gabe Men
denez: TITS the same all over.
Moneys just tighter now. No club
fights anywhere are drawing, no
sport is for that matter, except foot
ball. Well do better after the first
of the year when footballs over"
A regular customer: They've
had two bum fights here already
this year. Even for little fights they
want plenty Of action for their
money
Another regular customer: II don't
know why the crowds have fallen
off. The fights haven't been too bad.
Some have been pretty good, in fact.
I come out every week regardless of
who's fighting"
A fight manager: my boys are
fighting just as good regardless Of
the crowd What do the people
want, a world champion for the
money they pay us here?"
And that's the way it goes. Any
way, the customers Clipped in a
gross gate of $2,178.57 and net of
Sl,619.76 for the five-match card
last night. Lacey, repeating a vic
tory scored over Bee Bee two months
ago. led most of the way, although
the balloting was close Lacey had
an edge with a two-fisted attack
and appeared to rock his local op-
ponent especially in the second,
third, ninth and tenth rounds. Bee
Bee as usual. relied mostly on his
excellent left hook.
Two other bouts went the limit.
Tony Longo of Baltimore took a
five-round decision over Henry
Young of Washington, and Angelo
Marini won the nod over Gene Har-
ley in an all-local middleweight
affair for four rounds. Melvin Wade
of Baltimore f1oored Gene Hardison
OF Norfolk six times and finally
made him stick to the floor in the
fifth, and Elkin Brothers scored a
third-round t,k.o. over All Davis.

goes around and around for six
quarters like this: Team / plays
one quarter against team 2, then
team meets team 8; next. team

they do it all over again-each
squad playing two quarters
against different opponents.

the championship, officials will
