finish the fight with the same
speed with which he started.
Smith tried to use power
punches in hopes of knockout,
although Bossio never has been
stopped. While some of Smiths
blows did seem to hurt, Bossio
always had the ability to shake
them off and come back just as
fast.
Smiths best rounds were the
third, in which a left hook to
the head hurt Bossio and the
seventh, in which a right cross
had Bossio reeling momentarily.
Bossio never did have Smith
in trouble, but his ability to
swing all the time and keep on
his feet earned him points
throughout.
Jimmy Cooper, who has traded
six-round knockouts with Smith
this year, won the scheduled
eight-round Semifeature in short
order. He slowed up one Yogi
O'Berer of New York-who was
not as good a catcher as an
other Yogi from New York-with
a left hook and put him away
to stay with a right cross at 1:18
of the first.
Two once-popular Washington
fighters VINO had not fought here
for several years tried comebacks
in supporting matches, and only
one was successful.
Bantamweight Puggy King
knocked down Junior Perez of
New York twice while EN- route to
a four-round decision. Light
weight Biff Jones, who tried to
slug with SyL Temple of Wash
ington, was unsuccessful. Jones
picked up cuts near his left eye
and on his right cheek in the
first round, and the boxing COM
mission doctor stopped it at 1:20
of the second.
The other supporting match
went to Welterweight Chico Gas
cue of Venezuela on a third
round knockout over Clay Rob-
erts (the erstwhile Young Satan)
of Washington.
In a four-rounder before the
main event, Kid Saucer, 1876, of
Washington, outpointed Jimmy
Vines, 223, also of Washington.
The crowd paid a gross of
1896, which was figured to a
net take of $2,579.

Odds 7 10 | on Olson
In Bout With Turpin
Wednesday for Title
By the Assoeiased Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Carl
(Bobo) Olson, a baldish Ha-
waiian, and Randy Turpin. a
moody British Negro, fight We'd
nesday night at Madison Square
Garden for the world middle
weight title vacated last Decem-
ber by Sugar Ray Robinson.
Although Turpin once upset
Robinson and held the champ
ionship for two months in 1851,
he is a decided underdog. Odds
faYoring Olson hang around 2
to / and many think they may
edge to IL to 5 by ring time.
The 15-round bout will be seen
nationally on television (CBS)
at 10 pm. with New York and
75-mile surrounding area
blacked out. This will be the
first time New York has missed
bout that the rest of the
Nation will see on home TV.
The bout also will be broad
cast by CHS, even though the
radio broadcast of the regular
Wednesday night shows was
dropped about a year ago.
The international Boxing Club
expects a crowd of $4,000 and a
gate of $150,000. The Garden,
which has a capacity of $4,000,
is scaled for a sellout of $4,000.
Each fighter will get 80 per
cent of the gate receipts and tel
evision fee, reported to be
100000. There is no rematch
contract.
Turpin's last New York ap-
pearance was a smashing flnan-
cial success with 81 ,370 crowding
into the Polo Grounds for a
$767,626 gate, a record for non
heavyweights. However, Turpin
has cooled off as a box office
flash since that technical knock
out by Robinson. Olson never
has been a big gate attraction in
New York.
Most of the experts expect
the fight to go the limit. They
figure Olson, a cute, busy boxer,
will be able to block or slip most
of Turpin's powerful hooks. But
they don't think Olson has the
punch to bother his stronger op-
ponent, who fights in an awk-
Wardly effective style.

1t may be worth while to recall
the facts in more detail than they

that for more than 70 years the

vania, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and
Connecticut, had been solidly Re-

F. Guffey, of Pennsylvania, went
to Mr. Farley, then Democratic
national chairman, and sold him
the idea that if Mr.. Roosevelt

Negro appointments in his State
he could carry it. The astute Far
ley reasoned that if that could be

Right away he named an influential
Negro Pittsburgh editor as an AS
sistant Attorney General, the high
est public office any Negro had
ever filled. He then paved the way
for an unprecedented number of
minor Negro appointments. These,
under direction of Mr.. Farley, were
limited to the eleven states listed
above. Having gotten this patron
