Sugar Ray Can
Prove He's Still
Tops By Stopping
Rocky Gyaziano

WASHINGTON, d. c. - Those
fans who are saying that Ray
Robinson is slipping will have a
chance to prove their point April
10th when the middleweight cham
pion meets the bad boy of boxing,
Rocky Graziano, in Chicago. This
one has been in the talking stage
for years now, but nobody has been
able to arrange it.
In fact, the Illinois State Athletic
Commission approved the contest
only after a stormy session in
which an interested party alleged
that a match should not be clear
ed because of Graziano's connection
with underworld objects. But, after
hot exchange session, the Com
mission okayed the fight with the
reservation that certain charges
would continue to be investigated.
If no serious objections are I'M
covered between now and April 16,
the fight will come off as scheduled
and the boxing fan will be able
to see with his own eyes whether
Graziano deserved his shot at the
middleweight champion. Ever since
Randy Turpin of England stopped
the American Negro in London
cold and uncrowned him, some
middleweight fans have claimed
that Robinson was sliding down.
hill.
Graziano's followers said the
Rock could take him and began
bowling for a match with the
'champeen'. Some observers dis
missed the idea that Graziano
could knock cut Robinson with
disdain but others wondered. On
April 16 all Of them will find
out-weather- permitting.
In this fight it will be a contest
between a great boxer GOTTEN de-
scribed as the best, per pound, in
the world) and a slugger who wins
some of them, far behind in the
last round with a knockout. Rob-

Argument Ends
In Death Here

An argument between two jack

use of profanity ended in knife
fight with one of the Negroes being
fatally Wounded.
Investigating Detectives A. H.

coroner's jury ruled that Gus
"Hannk" Williams died of knife
wound in the left side of the chest.

hospital with a scalp laceration.
Crawford, an employee Of Parder

Williams body was found in

p. m
Jessie Warner and Anna Jones
occupants of 723 Canal St., where
the argument started, told police
that Williams came into the house
while Crawford was talking to
another Negro. Williams warned
Crawford about the language he
was using.
Williams then kicked Crawford
several times and apparently cut
Crawford on the head, Warner
stated, because he heard Crawford
tell Williams "you cut me-"
The two, men left the house and
several minutes later, Warner said,
someone knocked on his door and
told him Williams was lying in the
street dead.
At the hospital when asked who
cut him, Crawford said, "the late

opened Monday, March 31st. The
Lynch Optical Clinic, located al
1852 Lynch ST, is prepared to take
care of all your optical needs.
The owners, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c.
Sheffield, have felt the need Of
this type of place for some time
They have discussed their desires
with their own pastor, several of
the prominent ministers in the
Lynch area, and many other civic
leaders. Therefore, they decided to
bypass the glory and inevitable
success of the downtown area and
settle on Lynch Street, where they
are badly needed and can better
serve humanity.
They have also seen the need
for lower prices and more courteous
service. You will find both at this
new Optical Clinic.
Mr.. Sheffield has had Is wears
experience in all phases of the OPP
teal business. This, together with
their sincere desire to better serve
humanity, will assure you of the
very best of everything in the OPP
teal field.
We encourage you all to drop
IN at the Lynch Optical Clinic anc
get acquainted with Mr.. and Mrs
Sheffield. You will feel at home
there and the prices are very rea
sonablc. You are not charged
with the high overhead of ths
downtown offices.
