Louis Purse Demands
And Charles Bad Ear
Blocking Rematch
By the Associated Press

DETROIT, Mar. 9.-Money, as
well as Gzzard Charles bum ear
now stands in the way Of a re-
match between the heavyweight
champ and Joe Louis.
The International Boxing Club
met yesterday in the aftermath
to Wednesday nights Charles
Joe Walcott fight in which E2
successfully defended his title a
seventh time.
The IBC intended to plan for
the future. A Charles title fight
with joey Maxim, light-heavy
champion, in Pittsburgh next July
developed as a possibility.
However, a Charles-Louis fight
was shelved, at least for the time
being.
A proposed April rematch was
wrecked because of the ear injury
which Charles suffered in the
Walcott bout.
In addition. Jim Norris. IBC
president, said Louis wanted more
money for a June outdoor fight
in Chicago. Norris said there
was wide disagreement"
Were too far apart to reach
any agreement for June" Norris
said.
Meanwhile, the best that Mar
shall Miles, manager of Louis,
could say was that "our plans are
indefinite"
A deal for a Charles Maxim
fight in Pittsburgh's Forbes Field
with its $4,000 seating capacity
was pending.
Jake Mintz, co-manager Of
Charles, said he and his associates
had been planning for some time
to stage a title fight in Pittsburgh
since "Ez is very popular there" ="
Walcott chimed in with a re-
quest for another shot at the
crown, his fifth. Manager Felix
Bocchicchio offered Charles 40
per cent of a 100000 gate guar
antee for Philadelphia fight in
June. Mintz, without committing
himself, said he was very in
terested."
