NEW YORK, Feb. 9-Chico
Vejar, the fighting freshman from

N. j., a course in stretch fighting
last night and then stopped the

Iof the ninth round of a Madison
Square Garden 10-rounder.
Chico's neat exhibition earned
him about $500 and put him in
lime for the Garden shot with De
Marco, a ranking lightweight con-
tender.
Although the swarthy Connect
Eicut youngster won like the 5-to-1
Ifavorite he was, he had some
anxious moments in the early
rounds. A VIGOROUSLY slow starter
Chicoewas dumped for a count oi
eight in the second round by q
right uppercut to the chin.
That shot apparently woke him
up for he caught up to De Fazic
|by the fifth round and breezed
from there on. The first five
frames had the 6,511 fans ($22. 2.65s
gross gate) yelling as the boys
swapped punches at close range
Chico, who weighed lat to DE-
Fazio's l4734, grew stronger eacf

Is grateful for all the favors he

be wondering today if friendship
pays.
Russell was Junior varsity coach

defeat-all in league competition
in 13 games this season. St
Paul's played alert basketball

vantage at halftime to pull away
in the second half.
Russell's knowledge of Priory's
offense paid off in the third quar-
ter as st. Paul's held the Panthers
to three points and with only two
minutes remaining in the game
Priory had Tailed only nine points
in the half. A final rally by the
Panthers kept the score from
being one-Sided.

Judge KirkIonds Remarks at Nelson Sentencing

He may be a great man, but I
notice he paid women SIT to $33
a week for q five-day week--Six-
day week, as a matter Of fact. They
wouldn't have average a dollar an
hour. And subjected them to the
possibility of going to the peniten-
|tialy. If convicted Of both counts,
for as much as eight years.
Broke From Within.
Another thing that ! notice is
that it is one Of the few cases that
ever broke from within the inside,
|so whatever loyalty was there
wasn't very deep. ! don't recall
ever that we had case break
from the inside, except a prohi-
bition agent who was working with
the others.
Again it was a strange case that
when people embark in crime they
keep almost bank records of what
tranSpired.
Another thing that ] look for In
these cases is character. You
have been talking about character.
Since I have been on this court,
and within less than year. we
had is men on trial for the same
counts, gambling and conspiracy.
They were tried before Judge
Matthew Mcclure. and, it was a
hung jury. I am referring to the
|Snags Lewis case, that operated
under the same conditions. It
operated in Prince Georges Coun-
ty. And when that case came
before this court, Snags Lewis
and / don't know him from Adam;
/ have never met the man. I don't
know a single soul that knows
him-was ready to take the rap
for all the l6.
In the Snags Lewis case, cour-
sci for .Snags Lewis approached
the court and said that he was
perfectly willing to take the rap
for all of them, if the court would
impose a fine. and the court re-
fused. He then came back and
said that Snags Lewis would take
the rap for all of them, regard
less of punishment, and the court
refused. The court insisted that
he and his lieutenants enter pleas,
and that's what happened. And
when the three entered pleas
I13 went free.
Trait of Character.
Now took that into considera-
tion. ! thought that was. a trait
Iof character in a man that would
stand up-the chief lieutenant
and his subordinates-and take
the rap for the others. To me

younger University Of Maryland
boxers in holding the heavily
favored University Of South Caro-
lima squad to a margin of AZ te
I31a last night foreshadows a bet
ter season next year for the Terps
than they are likely to encounter
this year,.
That the Gamecocks emerged
victorious was due to their lighter
mems victories in the first foul
fights last night in Ritchie Col
|iseum, guaranteeing the visitors
no worse than a draw.
But the surprise of the evening
was the windup between the un-
limited fighters. Cal Quenstedt
and Chuck Spann. In punch
ing out a decisive victory ovei
South Cardinals Spann. Quen-
stedt avenged the loss suffered al
Spann's hands last year when
both fought in the 175-pound
class. Spann, along with the 1876
pound Allen George. is considered
one of the big guns of the South
Carolina squad.
OBrien and Rhodes Win.
Other wins were scored BY
Maryland's Bill O'Brien. a sopho-
more from Revere. Mass, and for
mer Marine boxer, in the 1856
pound division over South
Carolina's Malcolm De Witt, and
Ronnie Rhodes, 165-poundel
from Abilene. Tex, over the
GamecockS' Howard Collins.
The best fight was between BOZ
Theofield, Maryland Junior
from Silver Spring. and South
Carolina s Chuck Davis in the 139-
pound class. Theofield knocked
his man down in the first round
twice and seemed to have Davis
on the verge of a Knockout when
the bell sounded.
In the second round. however
Davis came back strong as Theo-
field began to tire. In the third
the South Carolian's ring lore and
fighting trim tipped the balance
and Davis belted Theof1eld all over
the ring. knocking him down just
before the fight ended. The Ter
rapin fighter simply ran out OF
gas.
If the Silver Spring fighter hac
been able to maintain his frs
round edge throughout the fight
