win Over La Starza
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 25.-Rocky
Marciano, who has become the
sensation of the heavyweight di-
vision after less than two years
of pro fighting, may get a crack
at the championship this summer
An awkward boxer with pow
erful kick in both fists, the un-
beaten, 25-year-old EXCL moved
right into the top ranks of the
big boys last night by smashing
his way to a split 10-round de-
cision over previously uncon-
quered Roland La Starza at
Madison Square Garden.
AL WE'LL, matchmaker for the
International Boxing Club, said
1--WE may put him in with Ezzard
Charles (the NBA titleholder)
this summer, if Charles still is
champion, or even with Joe Louis
if Joe intends to come back. This
kid hits like that atom bomb and
he's liable to knock out anybody
The victory over La Starza was
Rocky's 9th consecutive triumph
including "a knockouts, since he
started swinging for cash in July
Of 1948. And he won the exciting
scrap on the strength of his
powerful right in the fourth
round when he floored the hand
some 23-year-old New Yorker for
eight.
In that frame, the swarthy
short-armed New Englander cut
La Starza over both eyes, bloodied
his nose, and climaxed the big
round by decking his rival. That
knockdown proved decisive in the
scoring. Marciano earned the
maximum four points from
Referee Jack Watson and that
was the difference, even though
Watson took the eighth round
away from Marciano because OF
a low blow.

Surprising Baylor
Battles Bradley in
Western Final
BY the Associofed Press

KANSAS CITY, Mar. 25.-Brad-
leys fast-finishing Braves and the
upsetting Baylor Bears meet for
the Western NCAA basketball
crown tonight and a shot at the
national collegiate final.
Bradley wiped out a 7-point
handicap in the last 61a minutes
last night and swept on to rout
U. c. L. A., 1859, after Baylor had
come from behind to edge Brigham
Young, 56-55. in sloppily played
opener.
A record crowd for the West
erns, 10,700, which had dozed
through the first game, had just
about counted Bradley out of the
honors here when Bill Mann and
All-America Paul Unruh began
popping them in. The Braves
poured in % points in the telling
minute stretch while the
badly disorganized Uclans were
getting only 2.
U. c. L. A. had come from be-
hind on a sharp-shooting attack
led by Ralph Joeckel and George
Stanich to gain a 1888 halftime
tie. The Bruins kept pace as the
score was tied four times in the
first six minutes of the second
period.
The Pacific Coast champs were
3 points in front with 10 minutes
to go and with Eddie Sheldrake
and Stanich hitting built up a
7-point lead before Bradley's
Unruh and Mann answered the
fire bell.

His earnings amounted to $12.-
$50. Greek Song did not get to
the races until August, and it was
almost November before he Wis
tied the winners circle. Prior to
his first victory Greek Songs best
efforts had been third at Sara
toga and later a second at Bel
mont.
On October 20 he won by ~
lengths at a mile and one-six-
teenth over the Jamaica track.
His next race was the Pimlico
Futurity in which he was seventh
to Oil Capitol. At Bowie on No
vember 10 Greek Song won by
more than three lengths, then fin
ished his campaign by winning
the Endurance Handicap over the
same track. The way Greek Song
came to himself late in the sea-
son and his apparent liking for
distance impressed numerous
horsemen.
Still racing and winning last
year was Greek Songs l2-year-old
half brother, Corydon. Corydon
was a Derby nominee in 1910.

Marietta New Capital
OF College Rowing as
'Keepsie Loses Out
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

MARIETTA, Ohio, Mar. 25.-
This historic Ohio River city. site
of the first permanent settlement
in Ohio. stood today as the Ma
tion's new collegiate rowing cap
ital.
The far-famed "Poughkeepsie''
regatta was transferred yesterday
from the Hudson River to the
Ohio River. The annual rowing
event thus became the "Marietta"
regatta.
The action was taken by the
Board of Stewards of the Inter-
collegiate Rowing Association.
The 1850 championship Smile
test will be held at Marietta
June II.
The announcement by the Board
of Stewards said two principal
factors led to the transfer:
/. The absence of tides and cur
rents on the Ohio River, and
2. The availability of an obser-
vation train.
Poughkeepsie tried. but it was
unable to match Marietta. A re-
turn of the regatta to Poughkeep-
sic in the future is unlikely, 1t
appeared.
Hours after the announcement
the regatta was moving to Mari
eta, this river city could hardly
believe its ears. But its citizens
jubilantly launched its drive to be
ready for the first Marietta re-
gatta-only IS days away.
