Sports Roundup
By GAYLE TALBOT

NEW YORK R-Tom Tannas,
the most articulate of Ezzard
Charles co-managers, was pre-
pared to go before the New York
State Athletic Commission today
and demand that the former heavy
weight champion be matched
against Roland La Starza next
month, the winner to challenge
Rocky Marciano in September.
The expectation was that Tannas
would get nowhere. Jimmy De-
angelo, manager of La Starza,
states emphatically that his tiger
viii not fight Charles or anyone
else before he is given his long
overdue return crack at Marciano,
who beat him on a split decision
three years ago. IBC, the promo
tional octopus, realizes all too well
that a Charles-La Starza bout
might prove such a clinker that
nobody would wish to see either
of them fight Marclano.
Both the champion and his man.
ager, AL Well, have said they
would prefer to give La Starza the
first shot. Not necessarily, how
ever, in September. They have
made the painful discovery that
any further fighting Rocky does
this year would be for the almost
exclusive benefit Of the federal
treasury. 1t is a tough problem to
lick, and it remains to be seen
whether, under such circumstances
the commission can force cham
pion to defend his title every six
months.

The hectic efforts of a few to get
professional baseball for local fans
may not have succeeded at this
writing but there is a good posi-.
bility that they will bear fruit in
the future.
A letter from Washington Sena-
tor magnate Clark Griffith to Lou
is Carbonell, who was active in
promoting the deal here, revealed
that his organization is still mucho
hot on Key West as a baseball
town and indicated that Joe Cam
bria, an official in the Senator
chain would like nothing better
than to move into Key West if and
when the Florida Information loop
expands to a conventional eight
club circuit.
Cambria likes your town and
your people," wrote Griffith. He
went on to thank CarboneH for his
aid and that of the city commits.
sion for arranging lease for the
local ball park.
There is no doubt about it - Key
West has a baseball future but if
the Senator'S are the hackers, it
will be that much better. 1t would
take about $4,000 to set up a club
of our own and that is a lot Of
money.
Cambria, who is due in town for
a confab soon, has mentioned the
fact that he would not be averse
to allowing investment in the club
by local interests, if they so de-
sire.

Two local boys are making
names for themselves in profess
Sional baseball.
Danny LaStreS, of the baseball
playing Lastres family, is as hot
as a pistol with the Great Falls
Club in the Pioneer League where
he is considered the smoothest
fielder in the loop. LaStres, is play
ing his eighth year of pro ball as
shortstop.
His brother, George Lastres,
who is twirling some magnificent
baseball for the Key West High
School nine, should be a top pros
pect when he comes of age. And
everyone knows the brand of
ball that brother "Crip" has been
displaying for years.
George Vidal is twirling some
classics for the st. Petersburg

their short romance with the FIJI.
