BY the Asseeiotsd Press

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 5.-Joe Wal
colt, heavyweight champion, is
meeting solid opposition in his
effort to avoid q return match
with Ezzard Charles and take on
Rocky Marciano.
Jersey Joe's manager. Felix
Bocchicchio, offered yesterday to
put the champ in against Mar
ciano in May or June.
Jim Norris, president Of the In
ternational Boxing Club, said he
would be interested II Charles was
willing to let Walcott out Of his
contract to give EzZard first crack
at the title.
But Charles wasn't willing.

In Pittsburgh, Charles man
ager. Jake Mintz. said "the only
thing we are interested in is for
Walcott to fulfill the contract he
mas with us.
"All we want is'4or Jim Norris to
announce the date and place for
Walcott to meet Charles"
After Bocchicchio proposed the
Marciano fight yesterday. Norris
phoned the Charles group In Pitts
burgh and invited them to come
to Miami for q meeting. Mintz
replied he wasn't interested in any
meeting.
Walcott won the title by knock
ing out Charles In Pittsburgh last
July. He says he hasn't made q
dime OF the title and wants more
opportunity to cash In before Civ
ing Charles his return fight.

Norris said he sympathized with
Walcott but that something had
to be worked out that would salts

II think a Walcott- Charles
match in March or April, with the
winner meeting Marciano in June,
would be ideal" the IBC chief
said.
Meanwhile Dick Pride, chair
man Of the Indiana State Boxing
Commission. said that suspension
of Walcott in Indiana had been
lifted.
Pride, vacationing at Fort Lau-
