BILE for Sugar Ray Robinson's
vacated middleweight title be-
came more of a muddle today
with Carl (Bobo) Olson's with
drawal from an elimination
tournament designed to find a
new champion.
The Hawaiian boxer is the No.
/ American contender, but last
night he said he wants no part
of the tourney-arranged by the
powerful National Boxing Associ-
alton and the New York State
Athletic Commission.
Olson meets 21-year-old Nor
man Hayes of Boston Saturday
night in a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
10-rounder in Boston Garden.
The fight will be televised by the
American Broadcasting Co.,
starting at 8 pm. New England
will be BACKED out of the audi
ence.
Second Fight of Series.
Both Hayes and Olson were
on the list of American contend
erS scheduled for the NBA's
elimination series and this fight
was to have been the second of
that series.
The opener is tomorrow nights
Madison Square Garden bout be-
tween Pierre Langlois of France
and Rocky Castellani of Luzerne,
Pa. The victor was to have met
Ernie (the Rock Durando of
Bayonne, N. j., with that winner
taking on the Hayes-Olson WIN
ner. A flock of other fighters also
are on the elimination list.
The Frenchman got in the
American tournament because
his match with Castellani was
booked before the New York
boxing commission set I'D the
elimination series. If Castellani
should lose to Langlois, the
tournament would look strange
without Pierre. So he was in
cluded.
Fears Wrong Impression.
Langlois fears somebody will
get the idea he's ducking the
European competition, where
they are trying to match Charles
Huinez of France and Britain,s
Randy Turpin.
A 27-year-old veteran of 65
nghts. Langlois is making his
third visit to America within a
year. His record shows So won.
10 lost and three draws. A
Standup club fighter with a pleas
ing style, he is a real long shot
IN the tournament.
The Castellani-Langlois fight
will be shown on television over
WNBW in Washington at 10 pm.
Olson-the "leading man" of
the drama and practically the
only top contender not con-
trolled by the International Box
ing Club-won't even try to
make the division limit of 100
pounds for Hayes. That auto
matically rules him out of the
tournament.

said his fighter isn't interested
In the MIA deal, asserting:
"Bobo'S whipped practically
everybody in the tournament

fought yet. I'm not going to
let the 1BC tell me who my boy
will fight and who he can't

ITO THE working girl, subur-
Il ban housewife, top-f1ight
careeriSt, professional woman
or the college girl, the kind of
fur coat or wrap she selects
is most important
D 1t should reflect her per-
Sonal fashion outlook, success
fully complement her ward
robe, provide a maximum of
good wear and. at the same
time, give her the pleasure of
owning nice fur.
Buying the right fur, as you
can see, is not a terribly easy
thing to do. The problem also
varies with different women.
The college girl obviously
can't afford sable; the big ex-
ecutive's wife may want to
switch from a mink to a Per-
sian lamb, and many women
will be buying their first fur
and may be a bit beWildered
as to what it should be.
One trend stands out in
nearly all fur fashions in
nearly all price ranges. Bulk

Pockoged Vacations
By Jacques FutreIIe, Jr.
The Stor's IroveI Editor

A record vacation travel sea-
son is in the making for 1858,
according to a recent poll of
nearly $500 travel agents in the
United States and Canada. This
forecast is based on advance
bookings, which reveal firm in
tentions to visit "such far-apart
areas as Nova Scotia and Mexico,
Cape Cod and Hawaii, Quebec
and California, Alaska and New
England, the Grand Canyon and
Nassau, the Canadian Rockies
and Bermuda"
The vast majority Of vacation
ers will, of course, travel by au-
tomobile in the United States.
Yet the poll Of travel agents
gives assurance that the millions
will take their recreational
journeys on motor coaches and
river steamers, ocean liners and
freighters. planes, trains and
even launches. Only the subma-
rine seems to have no place in
travel plans.
A great deal of the vacationing
will be done through a scheme
that has gained extraordinary
popularity since World War II

tour. They are being offered this
summer in even greater pro-
fusion.

TEMPLE, Tex. Since this
time last year there have been
some 5000 new tourist courts
built across the land. There are
now some $4,000 tourist courts
with 796,500 rental units in the
United States. California leads
in number, Florida has edged
Texas out of second place, put
ting the Lone Star State in third
position, and New York State is
in fourth position.
When the motorist starts out
on his 1858 summer vacation, he
will find that in general the
rates are going to be about equal
to perhaps a fraction under the
1852 rates. But he will also find
that there are many new ap-
pointments, much upgrading Of
accommodations, new furnish-
ingS and more livable room.
During the last three years.
the Tourist Court Journal, a ma
tlonal trade magazine for the
tourist court-motel industry pub

schools for the owners and op-
orators of tourist courts. The
last one was completed May l
after five days at Florida State

RICHMOND.-For the 54th
consecutive month the travel ba-
rometer has climbed steadily in
Virginia, placing the Old Do
minion well to the fore as one
of the most popular travel deSti-
nations in the Nation.

country, those serving the travel
ing public have been engaged in
a vast expansion of accommoda-

One of Virginia's biggest SELL
ing points as a vacation choice
is the elasticity of price range
found in accommodations and
resorts, also the varied nature
of the scenic, historic and rec
reational advantages, often con-
centrated within a relatively
small area.
All types of accommodations
are available, many as low as SO
for hotel or motor court room,
and often 81 for two. These have
baths, but not luxury-type furn-
ishings.
The average hotel room for two
will not exceed 81 in cost for
a couple, with resort rooms,

to $32. In Western Virginia, ex-
cellent motor court accommoda-
tions range from 81 to 50 for

The courts in resort areas will

WOOdcock Camoufage.

One can never say for sure
whether the woodcock is more
famous for his camouflage or the
deliciousness Of his flesh. If you
have ever tried to discover the
woodcock in his home woodland
where his plumage blends per-
fectly with surroundings and the
sun and shadows sift down
through the trees to complete
the deception, you know how al
most impossible it is, unless you
spot the big eyes. If he had sense
to close those oop-eyes of his or
turn his head in another direc-
ton, you would never find him.
But his curiosity gets beyond his
control.

However, the situation wasn't

the cards were so distributed.
To set up the squeeze position,
Mr.. Champion planned to con-
cede the first trick. He could
then win the expected spade

trumps and the other high
spade. That would leave every
body with four cards. Dummy
