IL as a D 10 l ana out nght.
That means you can bet on Wal
colt but you can't wager on
Charles.
Yet this town is taking the Is
rounder in the Olympia Stadium
very seriously. Although there is
practically no wagering, the Gus
toners are rushing for tickets
The 10 pm. (EST) 15-rounder
will be broadcast and telecast by
CHS. (Stations WTOP and
WTOP-TV in Washington.)
Matchmaker Nick Londes of the
International Boxing Clubs De-
troit branch cheerfully announced
that more than $4,000 was in the
till already and that the place
may sell out to 1900 customers.
That would make for a gross gate
of around $95,000 and new in
door record for Detroit. Back in
1947, Sugar Ray Robinson drew
1922 fans and $83,522 for his
welterweight title defense here
with Chuck Taylor.
This comes after a dismal effort
by Walcott last November "a when
he was upset by vigorous, young
Rex Layne of Utah, and after a
far from spectacular display by
Charles in stopping Lee Oma jan
uary II. Both fights were held in
New York's Madison Square Gar
den and were seen on television
in Detroit.
Ray Arcel, the famed trainer
who will second lean Ezzard, prob
ably put his finger on the reason
for the boxoffice boom.
Louis to Watch Bout.
"This is Joe Louis town and
the customers want to see the
guy who beat Louis and the guy
who came close to doing it," Ray
said.
Louis will be a more than inter-
eSted spectator. There are plans
afoot by the IBC for both the
Brown Bomber and Charles to cut
into a $250,000 radio-TV melon
next month in either Chicago or
Detroit, if Ezzard wins tonight as
A victory by Walcott would kick
those plans out of the window as
Charles would be entitled to
return bout within 80 days. Louis,
down to 207 pounds and aching
to get another crack at Charles,
doesn't want to waste any more
time.
Walcott. however, still insists
he was robbed" in two of his

to get lucky.

and he didn't even smile. II
weighed 200 pounds for Layne
and was out of shape. I'm down
to 1874 now and I'm ready"
The 29-year-old champion from
Cincinnati made no rash predic-
tions, as usual.
Charles Expects to Win.
Il expect to win," said the lean,
1.-the titleholder. IF the oppor-
tunity presents itself, I'll try and
win by a knockout"
Charles said practically the
same thing before every one Of
his six other title defenses. Five,
incidentally, were ended via
knockouts or technical knockouts.
Only Louis went the distance last
September and he took a good
pasting.
The best break the customers
can get is if Walcott carries out
his announced strategy to make
an aggressive fight of it. Then
there might be some blood and
thunder and a quick knockout.
But if old Joe decides to be cute
and go into his slow shift, with
the two-step jig. then the boos
may ring out here like they did
in Chicago's Comiskey Park 20
months ago when Charles out
pointed Walcott the first time.
In that first go. where Charles
was favored by to 2, Ezzy won
by the unanimous vote of all
three officials. In the seventh,
10th and 18th rounds Charles had
Walcott on the verge of a kayo.
Then, too, Charles might de-
eide to cast his usual caution to
the winds and try to win friends
as well as victory. He has felt
that fans are down on him.

Develop New
Machine Gun

DETROIT, Dec. 81 (INS)-The
Detroit tank arsenal revealed to-
day that its research engineers
have developed a submachine gun
that shoots around corners.
This feat is accomplished by a
curved, detachable Darrell which
fits the army's standard Ms sub
machine gun. It can be set to fire
right or left, up or down.
Although. no description Of the
sight used on the curved barrel is
available, engineers said the wea-
pom is more accurate than a
straight barrel.
Joseph c. Soma, project engin-
er for the new weapon, said it
fires at the rate of $50 rounds a
minute and will sent a 45-calibre
slug through an inch-thick pine
board at 100 yards.
Engineers have been working on
on the gun since 1943, but efforts
were intensified early in 195Owhen
tank crews in Korea asked for a
gun to shoot men on top of their
tanks.

(INS)- A California preacher
was judged today to be the win

Quoted by the Burlington, Wis,
Liars Club.
He is the Rev. Arthur R. Kirk,
pastor of the Community Church
at Biggs, Calf.
After a lengthy session Of por-
ing over the entries in the annual
contest, the Liars Club executives
unanimously awarded Kirk the
prize for this story:
"a man living west Of town
tried to raise watermelons this
summer. He had very bad luck.
The soil was too rich. The water
melon vines grew so fast they
wore out the melons dragging them
along the ground"
AS if that were not enough.K Kirk
added this postscript:
Zone ofthe boys from townwent
out one night to swipe a melon.
He got the melon all right, but
the vines were growing so fast
the boy had to be taken to a hos
pital. Before he could break the
melon off the vine, it had dragged
him half a mile and he was in
bad shape"
The club chose three entries fol
honorable mention. James E. Stra-
chan of st. Cloud, Mimi, was
honored for this one:
"It was SO cold in Minnesota
last year that the jackrabbits anG
weasels stayed white the veal

were the first ones to hold formal
Thanksgiving meeting. That was

had already died of cold and hun

thanks. They gave thanks because
quite obviously it was only by the
grace of God that only half of

| They had set out from England
with plenty of fear-but with high
hope and courage. 1t is believed
now that most of them thought they
were going to Virginia. which is
much less hostile than New Eng

through dishonesty, they arrived
at Cape Cod Bay inStead-early in
December
| They dropped anchor off what

beach at Provincetown. And
party of men walked all the wav

from them. And they planted il
