somebody kept hittin' you in the

Cooper scored a siXth-round
knockout over Smith after him
self being on the border of

It was touch and go before
Cooper connected with the big
touch. Most of his supporters
think he'll do it again Tuesday
night. But not Cohen.
mo one remembers that Gene
stopped Cooper in 1851" he said.
HE looked so good then lot
of experts called him the COM

as good today. Well take

GaviIan Likely 10 Gel
Tough With Fuentes
In Fight Tonight
BY the Asseeiaied Press

MILWAUKEE,. July 15.-Kid
Gavilan, the bolo-punching world
welterweight champion, hasn't
been too impressive in his last
two bouts, a fact which bodies no
good for Ramon Fuentes Of Los
Angeles tonight.
Gavilan, the Cuban hawk who
can be very good when he wants
to be, is expected to go all out
when he takes on Fuentes, the
eighth-ranking 147-pounder, at
the Milwaukee arena.
The fight is a non-title affair
scheduled for 10 rounds. It is
the first Wisconsin boxing show
to be televiSed nationally and will
wind up a 40-round fight card.
(The fight will be seen in
Washington on channel 8,
starting at 10 p.m.)
Gavilan, who won his crown
from Johnny Bratton in 1851,
lost to Danny (Bang Bang)
Womber in May and since then
has beaten Italo Scortichini in a
dull scrap. A fast man with his
hands and a past master as
boxer, Gavilin has been knocked
down only once. That was by Ike
Williams several years ago, and
the Kid got up to win the fight.
The Cuban will carry a record
of SO victories, 13 losses and 4
draws into tonight's battle. Un-
til he was surprised by Womber,
Gavilan had not been beaten in
almost three years.
Fuentes. holder of the Cali
Pornia welterweight champion
ship through a victory over Mario
Trigo. has been beaten only once
In % bouts. He likes to mix,
takes a punch well and can hit
soundly with either hand.
The windup principles will re-

Gavilan is down for 80 per cent
Of the gate and FuenteS 20.

Urge Colleges 10 Bar
Contests With Pros
BY the Associated Prass

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo,
July IS. College conferences
were urged today to adopt rules
prohibiting contests in any
sports between college and pro-
fesSional teams.
Commissioners of the 10 major
college athletic conferences
unanimously approved a resolu-
ton asking the conferences to
halt any contests between the
play-for-pay athletes and the
collegians.
A spokesman for the annual
commissioners meeting said the
problem was mot regarded as a
serious one" He said, however,
that the commissioners felt the
regulations should be adopted as
a means of protecting the in
stitution of amateur athletics"
The spokesman added that the
commissioners felt anything
which makes a sharp distinction
between amateur and profess
sional athletics is a distinct
gain"
No particular pro-college
games were discussed. In the
past there have been hockey
games between the University of
Michigan and the professional
Detroit Redwings. Also, Holy
Cross has had a baseball series
with the Boston Red Sox. There
have been reports the Harlem
Globetrotters. touring profess
sional basketball team, would
try to develop a series with COL
lege teams.
The commissioners recon-
mended that the conferences
adopt regulations that also
would bar games between college
teams and independent collec-
tions Of players that might in
clude a professional.
Most conferences do not have
any regulations barring college,
