already had gained the blessing
of the National Boxing Associa-
ton.
Louis said, "Eagan- was very
friendly and helpful. He told me
what we would have to do to get
a New York license. We must in
corporate in New York, get a
signed one-year lease for an arena
approved by the building and fire
departments.
Promoter Joe said he decided tt
retire as a fighter last January.
II asked Mike Jacobs (boss o1
the goth Century Sporting Club
and Sol Strauss treasurer ano
director of the 20th) to show me
how I could make 100000 clear
of taxes, managers cuts anc
everything else for my next fight
They couldn't show me that.
$50 I went to. Wirtz and Norris
with my plan. They agreed. We
would all put up the same amount
of money and be equal partners.
"I then told Jacobs the whole
story in Miami. He said I have
no beef
Il figured I could make more
money in the long run by pro-
noting than I could with one
more fight. And I wouldn't have

Chisox to Move
OutfieId Fence
ToAid Homers
BY The Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO, Mar. 9.-Comis-
key Park, once a pitchers
paradise, will have a home
run" garden this year.
The Chicago White Sox
today announced 5-foot wire
barrier shortening the entire
outf1eld 20 feet will be con-
structed in time for the
April % opener with the st.
Louis Browns.
The fence. similar to the one
the Cleveland Indians erected
at their rambling stadium, will
trim both the left and right
field foul lines from 352 to
1872 feet.
The center field limit will be
reduced from AS feet to 425
feet.
In the 20-foot spaces be-
tween the outfield walls and
the new fence, rooted in bull
pens will be built-the visitors
in right field and the Sox' in
left field.
The fence was decided on
after the Sox toyed with the
idea Of moving home plate to-
wards the outfield, General
Manager Frank Lane said.
Moving the plate ahead-as
was done when the Sox had
high hopes for the betting of
Al Simmons Is years ago
would move field action too far
from the fans" Lane explained.
THE new distance will be
hazardous to our own pitchers
as we'll as opposing hurlers, but
we're home IT games and an
enemy club is only around II
times in a season."
The plate covering episode
back in 1884 backfired when
Simmons got little or no in
spiration from the Comiskey
Park remodeling for his benefit.
At considerable expense. the
plate was shifted IA feet for
ward. It was shifted back at
the same expense when Sim
mons subsequently was sold to
the Detroit Tigers.

Truman Asks Mats
To Win for Him
BY q Stor Stoff Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla. Mar. o.
"Tell Joe Kuhel to tell his boys
that they're playing the open
ing game for me and that I
want them to win," was Presi-
dent Truman's message to the
Mats via President Clark Grit
fifth here yesterday when the
Chief Executive was presented
an honorary degree by Rollins
College.
Truman never has seen the
Mats win on opening day. He
threw out the first ball IN 1947
and again last year and on
both occasions the Mats lost.
The President has seen the
Mats four times as Chief Execu-
tive and three times they lost.
Last year when he attended
Griffith Night" the Mats were
walloped by the New York
Yankees. When the Walter
johnson Plaque was dedicated
by Mr.. Truman the Mats rail-
lied in the ninth inning to de-
feat St. Louis.
