NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-Sugar
Ray Robinson is still the middle
weight champion today, but in
dications are that the converted
song and dance man is just a
step or two from waltzing out OF
the professional boxing picture.
A close friend and adviser of
the 160-pound titleholder said
yesterday Robinson had prepared
his retirement announcement and
is ready to submit it to Abe
Greene, commissioner of the Ma
tional Boxing Association.
In Paterson, N. j., Greene said
that he had received no word
from Robinson and knew of no
impending announcement.

cording to Gainford. the champ

SYDNEY. Australia, Dec. 16.-
Ted Schroeder, who is out here this
time strictly as a sightseer and
newspaper expert on the approach
ing Davis Cup matches. has asked
and been granted permission to
take a long distance belt at his old
cup teammate. Gardnar Mulloy.
Incensed at Mulloy's reported
criticism of the makeup of the
current American squad, Ted sat
down and carefully wrote this out
in pencil:
"Gardnar might. 1 think. be
thankful to the organization which
gave him many an ungrasped op-
portunity. Failing in this, he might
keep his counsel or possibly even
show a little sportsmanship by
backing his country's team while
lit is competing abroad"
Having got that down on paper,
Schroeder enlarged upon it orally,
emphasizing MS remarks WIN
gestures.
'Never Came Through"
What I mean" he said, sis
that this guy has had every
chance in the world in the biggest
events at Wimbledon. Forest Hills
and elsewhere. and yet never once
in his life came through when
the chips were down. He's reached
the quarter finals and finals. but
tell me one big match he ever
won. Yet now he has the nerve
to criticize players who have gone
out and won the big ones"
This is as good a spot as any
to recall that Mulloy reached the
finals of the United States cham

There was a ruckus last year

when he ousted frankie Parker

Ted has been known to pick up
the phone after midnight and
argue across country with some
tennis writer who had wounded
him. He pays for such calls, too.
His thoughts came through
clearly when he was asked what he
thought of Tony Trabert's chances
of defeating Sedgman or Ken Nc
Gregor should they meet in the
coming challenge round at Ade-

MacP hail Is Pleased
with Bowie Meetinu
In Spite Of Red Ink
By Brion Bell, Jr.

Larry MacPhail, president Of
Bowie race track, is well satisfied
with the 18-day meeting which
closed yesterday even though the
books show red ink.
Despite numerous setbacks
from bad weather, Bowie man
aged to take in $15,286, ,284
through the mutual windows this
fall. A closing day crowd of o.
084 yesterday bet more than
$500. 900 and brought the daily
betting average to $849 ,236-con-
sidered quite good considering
the handicaps.
"Sure we lost money this fall"
MacPhail said today. but it was
much less than we thought we
were going to lose. In fact. we
had better meeting than we had
any reason to hope, considering
the start we had"
Closed for a Week.
Bowie, improved with an ex-
penditure of more than a million
and half dollars, opened Novem-
ber II but closed for a week after
two races. Jockeys complained
the rain-drenched strip was un-
safe and Bowie was idle until No.

the track fit to pass inspection
by the Maryland Racing Commits
sion and the riders.
The plant missed another day
when snow closed the roads lead
ing into the track and was handi-
capped by cold or rainy weather
on many of its racing days.
1--WE knew we had bad racing
dates this year when we started"
MacPhail continued. But we
didn't anticipate such horrible
weather. I guess it was about
the worst racing weather they've
had around here in the last 10l
years.
NA0CA hdh O0eAolhCus
when we ran into all those bad
breaks, we held to our main aim
to go through with the meeting,
fulfill our obligations to ,horsemen
and inconvenience the public as
little as possible. We didn't get
really decent racing weather until
the end of the meeting and our
showing this fall is well satisfying.
Counting the spring meetings, we
made some money this year, but
of course that and much more was
poured back into the track"
The mutuel figures show a de-
crease in betting of $100,513 from
the 1851 daily average during the
fall session. However, the daily
average for both spring and fall
meetings this year was $932,2 a
healthy increase over the $777, 1928
overall average for Bowie in 1851.
The 15-day Bowie meeting was run
on the Laurel track.
I'VE are going to do some more
work on the track before the

Maxim Drops Caution
To Predict Win Over
Moore in Title Bout
BY the Associated Press

ST, LOUIS. Dec. 16.-It's not
often joey Maxim, light-heavy-
weight champion, will make a pre-
diction on the outcome of any
of his fights, but he says he will
win in his title defense tomorrow
night against favored Archie
Moore.
That optimistic burst from the
usual doleful Clevelander was
caused by a little incident with
Moore a few days ago at medi-
cal examination.
We're being examined" the
30-year-old champion said as he
wound up his training with some
light gym work yesterday. land
some radio announcer says to
Moore: How do you think you'll
do with Maxim Wednesday night?'
Well, Moore looks down a mo-.
ment. and then says, I'm gonna
knock him out y
Imagine that" joey exclaimed.
THE nerve of the guy! So the
announcer comes to me and says.
'Watta you think Of that?' I told
him, Look. if that happens. it
won't be the first time But
told him I've always been told
to strino along with the cham
pion. That goes double for
Moore
Cheerful and Confident.
Actually the swarthy champion
is in a better frame Of mind for
Moore, his most dangerous title
opponent to date, than he was for
Irish Bob Murphy and Sugar Ray
Robinson. He's cheerful and con-
fdent, and especially happy about
his big payday for the 15-rounder.
The champ has been guaranteed
about 100000 for his third title
defense.
1--WE worked seven weeks for
this fight and I'm in great shape"
Joey said. Il weighed over 200
when / started training.
but for some reason I take it of
pretty good in the winter. I'm
down to 176 now and won't have
any trouble making the l75-pound
limit. ...... .-.
II know all about Moore. He's
pretty rough. I've seen him and
he's got a terrific sneak right
hand that you have to watch out
for. I'll be watching"
Relies on Jab and Hook.
Maxim is counting on his left
jab and left hook to keep the
36-year-old Negro off balance.
Even if he happens to get clipped.
Joey thinks he can take Moore's
best punch and keep going.
Maxim has one of the toughest
chIns in the trade. He's been
out only once-by Curtis
Sheppard-in 100 fights. and he
avenged that 1943 loss by OUT
CHASING the hatchet man a month
later
The oddS-makers have made
Moore an 8-to-5 favorite to win.
That's okay with me-" said

One hundred years ago, TO be sure, men
matched fast horses and fought with bare
knuckles on barges and in forests, ever fearful
of the law. But there was no such game as
football, nor basketball, and baseball of the
time bore only faint resemblance to the
preSent-day sport.

Belmont Stakes was run off in 1867 and older
still when the PreakneSs and the Kentucky
