Charles Defends Title
Against 0ma Friday;
Bout 10 Be TeIevised
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. g. Ezzard
Charles defends his world heavy
weight boxing title for the sixth
time Friday at Madison Square
Garden against Lee Oma, the re-
formed playboy from Buffalo.
The 15-round bout, starting at
10 pm, will be beamed to mil
lions by radio and television. In
ternational Boxing Club officials
expect about 10000 fans to pay
at least $65 1000 to see the contest.
Little or no betting on the fight
was reported. with the price
against Oma about to 1. It's
about even money that the lean
Cincinnati champion knocks out
the 34-year-old challenger.
Charles is running ahead of
Joe Louis record pace in risking
his title. Joe. now engaged in a
comeback campaign leading to a
return bout with Ezzy. defended
Is times before he retired" The
new champion is about three
months ahead Of Louis schedule.
Barone Last Victim.
Charles polished off Nick Ba-
rome in an 11th-round knockout
at Cincinnati December In his
last start. Since winning the title
by beating Jersey Joe Walcott in
Chicago on June %, 1949, Ezzy
has whipped Gus Lesnevich, Pat
Valentino. Freddie Beshore, Louis
and Barone. Only Louis went the
route.
A sharp puncher and fine boxer
who usually wears down his man
in the late rounds. the 29-year-old
Charles figures to cut down Oma,
who Is primed for the fight of his
life.
Oma. an in-and-outer who has
been fighting since 1889, may
bother Charles with his peculiar
style a la Walcott. He likes to
shuttle around with his hands
down. lashing out in periodic fur
ries with sharp right hand. Never
one to take training seriously, Oma
is reported to have buckled down
to work for this big chance of a
checkered career.
Making fine comeback, after
his knockout loss to Bruce Wood
cock in London in 1948, Oma won
13 straight before he was involved
in a mo contest" bout with Bill
Weinberg at Cincinnati last May.
He was knocked out by Bob Sat-
terfield in his next start, but then
got back on the win path to beat
Satterfield in a return bout. Lee
also whipped Beshore twice and
Barone. two of Charles title op-
ponents.
Has a Spotty Record.
Ranked No. 4 among the chal-
lengers behind Louis, Lee Savold
and joey Maxim,s Oma has a
spotty record Of 81 wins, 25
losses and three draws. He has
been stopped IA times. most of
them early in his career. Lee
used to fight out Of Detroit. but
now makes his home in Buffalo.
For years, boxing people have
been saying Oma could be one
of the best heavyweights if he
would take care of himself. He
liked the bright lights better than
the training routine. but he is a
clever. experienced fighter with a
battling style. Those who have
seen him at camp SAY he's in
the best condition ever at 1872
pounds.
In 1850 Oma had six fights.
winning four. One was the no.
decision f1asco and the other was
the KO by Satterfield. Charles
fought and won three times last
year after his long layoff due to
a strained heart muscle. Ezzy's
managers, Jake Mintz and Tom
Tannas. plan a busy program for
1851. The future schedule will
be announced after the Oma bout.

truth, Mccarthy dashed out at his

was controlled by Republicans and
chairman by CONSCIENTIOUS Sen.

pite this, Mccarthy ragged. This

During the committee hear

U. s.. Army officers, even demand

However. Mccarthy was not willing
to have the German war criminals

G0ODS0N BRINGS
WORD OF FAMILY
NOW IN ARIZONA

Word of his family in Wilcox,
Arizona was brought to Juneau
friends by Kenneth F. Goodson,
District Engineer at Fairbanks for
the Alaska Road Commission, in
attendance at the annual confer
ence of ARC engineers.
Goodson came to Juneau from
Wilcox where he spent the Christ
mas holidays with his family. He
plans to leave over the weekend
for his Fairbanks headquarters.
Juneau friends will be glad to
know that Mr.. and Mrs. H. o.
Parks, parents of Mrs. Goodson,
are recovering satisfactorily from
serious injuries they suffered in an
automobile accident last october in
Arizona. They visited most of last
summer in Juneau with Goodsons
who then resided here, at their
home on Glacier Highway and
made many friends here.
The Goodsons had been in Fair
banks where Goodson was transfer
red from the Juneau office Septem-
Der %, only a short time when
the accident to Mr.. and Mrs. Parks
occurred and Mrs. Goodson and
their two children left Immediate
" for Arizona. They do not expect
to return to Alaska until late IL
the spring.

Senate Rebuffs Mccarthy

And, as his own COP colleagues
on the Senate Committee dug deep
er into the facts and got closer to
exposing Mccarthy, the Senator
from Wisconsin staged a Vishinsky
act and walked out of the hear
ings.
Nevertheless the Senate Commit
tee rebuffed its own colleague with
an official report which came close
to pinning the Communist label on
McCarthy's sources.
Through competent testimony
submitted to the subcommittee"
the report read, sit appeared that
there are strong reasons to believe
that groups within Germany are
endeavoring. to discredit the Am
erican occupation forces in general.
The subcommittee is convinced that
there is an organized effort being
made to revive the National
istic spirit in Germany through
every possible means. There is evil
dence that at least part of this
effort is attempting to establish
a close liaison with Communist
Russia.
due to the manner in which the
allegations, in this case were being
handled .(by Mccarthy it was also
clear that no matter what the
facts were in the case. in the minds
of practically all Germans, the
allegations were accepted as fact.
This was certain to damage the
American position in Germany.
Everything done to weaken the
prestige of the United States and
our occupation policies will play
an important part in any emer-
gency."
When McCarthy's wild charges
were finally sifted down, the one
billion dollars a year we spend In
Germany was partly nullified, the
Communist hand was strengthened,
and the guilty SIS men who shot 30
unarmed Americans in cold blood
on a snowy day during the battle
of the bulge still remained unpun-
ished.

McCsrthy's Shouts

inals) were subject to heatings
and physical violence in such forms
as could only be devised by warp

"Th,ey were subjected to sham
trials. ito nook hangineS; and
families were deprived of rations-
all of which the prosecution jus
titled as being necessary to create
the right psychological atmos-
phere in which to obtain con-
LESSONS.
1T is an unquestioned fact" Nc
Carthy shouted, that an innocent
man will scream just as loudly as
guilty man when being tortured"
Naturally this made headlines in
Germany. Naturally these grave
charges, coming from U. S. Sen
ator. were believed. And they turn
ed thousands of Germans against
the United States. Meanwhile,
American taxpayers have been pay
ing one billion dollars a year to
feed the German people and keep
them with us.

Nazis Go Unpublished

Of various atrocities committed
during the war, this was by ell
odds the worst. 1t was more cold
blooded than any committed by the
japanese. Later the SIS men who
murdered the 80 defenseless Amer
lean prisoners were caught. tried,
ana IL were found guilty. How
ever. they have never been hanged
and here is the reason.
After they were condemned to
death, German agent named
Rudolf Aschenauer sent faked-up
charges to Frederic Libby of the
National Council for the prevention
of war, that U. S. Army prosecu-
tors had tortured the Nazi SIS
men to obtain confessions.
Libby, not realizing he was be-
ing used, passed this on to Nc
Carthy. He even passed it on in the
same brown envelopes he received
from Munich, with Rudolf Aschen-
auer's name attached.
A high American intelligence Of
ficer later gave the Senate Armed
Services Committee information
linking Aschenauer with the Com
munist agitators who are trying
to stir up German resentment
against the U. S. A. Aschenauer,
according to U. S. intelligence, was
secretly affiliated with a Com
munist spy ring whose purpose was
to keep the German people on
Moscow's side.
It's job was to plant this dyna-
mite-lid en propaganda on Nc
earthly and then cable his inflam-
matory speeches back to Germany.
There they were headlined in the
press.

first definite steps toward civilian defense promise to
draw the line between normal individuals and neu-

There are varied options as to whether Pacific

who argue that such attacks would be likely and those
who say unlikely agree that the possibility
exists this basis planning for civilian defense is
must.
1t is at this point that the wrought or flighty
individual is likely to make his presence felt. Philip
