When Irish-bred Artane ran at

American racing debut Of the
horse, owner and trainer. And
even though Artane was last in
an allowance race won by Dark

Artane belongs to Joseph =.

centrated on show-ring horses.
The colt is IN the hands Of

Final Steps Awaited
After Purdue Assures
Bowl Pact Renewal
SY The Associoisd Press

CHICAGO, April IA re-
sounding "aye" from an unpre-
dictable Purdue faculty has vir-
tually assured more Rose Bowl
games between Big Ten and
Pacific Coast Conference foot
ball teams.
The Purdue professors gave the
poSt-season Pasadena classic an
okay late yesterday. The vote
was 1870.
4 With this key vote in, an ON
cial agreement apparently await
ed only:
l. Affirmative votes by the
faculties Of Indiana and Michi-
gan. These are considered GER
tainties.
81 A formal vote at the Big
Tens annual spring meeting
(May 28-30) Of athletic chiefs.
This is usually no more than a
rubber stamp Of previous action
by the faculties Of member
schools.
8. A decision about how fire.
quently any one Big Ten team
may appear at Pasadena. The
current rule is once every two
years.
4. Working out Of details be-
tween Big Ten representatives
and officials of the Pacific Coast
Conference, which already has
approved a renewal.
The current agreement expires
after the January /, 1854, game.
Northwestern had voted
against the pact. now in its
eighth year, at a meeting Mon
day. Iowa voted for 1t earlier
yesterday.
When the Purdue faculty be-
gan casting ballots on the issue
in the afternoon the vote stood:
For-Iowa, Illinois. Ohio
State.
Not voting yet. but consider
ed solid for: Indiana. Michigan.
Against-WisconSin. North
western, Minnesota and Michi-
gan State.
Thus the Purdue vote was
crucial. Had the Boilermaker
faculty turned down the pact-as
it did three years ago-Big Ten
Rose Bowl participation would
have been doomed. A SIS vote
would have killed it.
The original Big Ten-PCC
agreement was for the 1ive years.
It then was extended for the cur
rent three-year term.

Charles Future Rests
Outcome Of Bout
With Layne Tonight
By the Assoeiosed Press

SAN FRANCISCO, April L.
Former Champion Ezzard
Charles should find out tonight
whether he still is a title con-
tender or one Of the rings heavy
weight has-beens. His 10-round
nationally-televised fight with
husky Rex Layne is one Of the
most important in his 14-year
career.
(The fight will be telecaSt in
Washington by WTOP-TV,
Channel 9, at 10 o'clock.)
Charles. 81. is over the hill
and on his way down. Like so
many champions before him, he
has hopes Of regaining the title
he lost to Jersey Joe Walcott in
1851. He'll have to make good
tonight or forget those dreams
forever. - :
It's the big and perhaps 1inal
test for Ezzard, who incidentally
is q to 4 choice to make the
grade and stay in contention as
q top challenger.
Layne Holds Weight Edge.
Layne is "a and considered
still on the upgrade. It will be
his third chance at Charles. He's
a much improved fighter since
he lost to his rival two years ago.
Last August he took a close 10
round decision over the Cincin-
natl Negro.
Scaling around 200 pounds, the
Lewiston, Utah. swinger will have
a substantial weight advantage.
Charles figures to come in at
1876 to 1877.
Layne'S physical advantages
could be q determining factor.
He's ready to go at top speed,
has full confidence and only
hopes Charles viii throw punches
with him from the start. Ezzard.
trained to f1ne condition, says
that's going to be his style.
II both hew to their plans It
should be q dandy ove-tossing
party.
The winner will be in q good
spot to challenge the winner Of
the rematch between Champion
Rocky Marciano and Joe WAL
cott in Chicago April 10.
$4,000 Gate Expected.
Charles beat Walcott twice be-
fore losing the crown to him.
Ezzard hasn't fought Marciano.
Layne holds q decision over WAL
colt. but was knocked out by
Marciano two years ago.
The Utah stalwart has risen in
ring stature since, but, in his
last match, February 1S, he lost
. split 1O-round decision to Ro-
land La Starza, another chal-
lenger.
The bout is expected to attract
q near-capacity crowd into the
7,7O0-seat Winterland Pavilion,
with gate receipts upwards Of
$35, 900.
Two judges and a referee will
