Two Men Charged With Break Ins

Deputy Sheriffs this week clear
ed up series of IL break-ins that

ry County. and date back to 1883.
Two North Carolina men, Tai
madge Small. 20, of Wilmington.
and formerly of South Carolina.
and Curtis Smith. 2l, Of Halls
boro, N. c., were arrested early

them.
Included in the list of places
robbed by Small and Smith are
Smitty's Drive-In restaurant at
ocean Drive Beach on Jan. 9: and
the Billup's Service Station also
at the beach.
On November 6, the two men

putles, and on the 18th of that
month. the two are charged with
breaking and entering at Ander-
son Supply in the Spring Branch
Community.
Small alone is charged with
breaking into a store owned by

Dec. 4 and Billy Clemmons' store
in Finkley.
Small is also charged with
breaking into Leland Gerrall's
Store on Galivants Ferry Route,
and walking out with something
like Sl0O.
That was the first time the Ger
rails store was broken into. The
second time, just last Friday, was
the pairs downfall.
According to Deputies, the two
men went to Gerralrs store with
the intention of throwing a sack
over Gerralls head and robbing
his person.
However, according to the story
told officers, the two found the
store crowded, and they retired
up the road a bit to wait for
things to quiet down.
When they areturned to the
store, the two told Investigators,
the store had been closed. So in
stead of robbing Gerrall, they
broke into his store and stole a
jar of dimes.
Gerall reported the break-in,
and investigation led to the two
men. Under questioning, the two
broke down and admitted the rest.

BY RUSS kEWLANn

SAN FRANCISCO R-This may
not be stop the press" stuff but
1T is news when middleweight
champion Carl (Bobo) Olson
makes an outright prediction.
In a question and-answer inter
view that was practically pried out
of the 16O-pound kingpin, he said
he expected to beat the No. 1 chal-
lenger, Rocky Castellani, in their
15-round title fight tomorrow night.
Il have trained hard and l have
trained for \ 1S-round fight" he
said.
Asked if he expected TO win By
a knockout or a decision, he said,
I'm ready 30 80 Is rounds, come
what may"
He has no set plan Of battle.
I'm ready for any kind Of fight
Castellani puts up"
He was asked what kind Of 4
fight he expected the challenger TO
wage.
From what l have read in the
papers 1 expect him to try to jab
and outspeed me. If that's what
he does, I'll press him all the
way"
Odds makers have established
Olson the ~ favorits.
The bout will be nationally tele-
vised Except for 4 San Francisco
blackout within a 10O-mile radius)
from the San Francisco Cow Pal
ace by NBC.
Starting time will be 10 pm.
EDIT.
Most observers think the pulver-
izing body beatingS Olson hands
out will win him the fight. But
Castelani followers see the form
er LuZerne, Pa, coalminer, now a
Cleveland resident, as a winner
due to his flashing speed.
Rocky's left jab is superior. He
moves in and out and around the
ring faster than Bobo. He probably
is the harder hitter with q right
hand.

Durocher Plays
lunches To
Win Ball Games
BY JOE REIcHLER

NEW YORK R - Leo .Durocher,
regrouping his faltering forces for
the stretch run, is up to his old
tricks again. A bunch player from
way back, the New York Giant
manager is playing them to the
hilt-and they're paying off.
Shocked by three straight losses
to the Dodgers at Ebbets Field,
Durocher shook UP his lineup a.
gainst Philadelphia Tuesday night,
putting Bobby Hoffman on first,
Billy Gardner on third and Ray
katt behind the plate. All Hoffman
did was slam two home runs and
drive in four runs to spark a S-3
victory. Gardner Shone defensively
and Kat contributed q double and
a run-scoring fly.
Yesterday, with a Highlander
pitching for the PhiIheS, Durocher
sent Dusty Rhodes, the powerful.
ting pinch hitter, to left field in
place Of Monte Irwin. Rhodes blast
ed 4 pair Of home runs and
drove in hve runs a. the Cams
won 81.
Rhodes got the Giants al 10 q
80 lead in the first inning, ham
mering Herm Wehmeier for a
three-run homer. His second
homer, and 18th Of the season,
came of Southpaw Ron Mrosinski
in the fifth with one man aboard.
Every time we go bad" Duro-
cher raid, II call upon Rhodes and
Holman. They're my minutemen.
/ first got the idea using them as
trouble shooters last fall during
our tour in Japan. They were both
hitting fools on that trip. Dusty
and Bobby easily were the best
hitterS on the club. If 1t weren't
for them We wouldn't have won a
single game in Japan"
Hofman'S batting average of
,2SS is misleading but Rhodes is
pacing the club with a 81 aver.
age. He has driven In 80 runs On

Race Track
Crowds Are
Up This Year
ny JOHN CHANDLER

NEW YORK R-Attendance at
the nations major race tracks is
up in a majority of cases, and may
exceed the record total turnout of
1888, figures of the Thoroughbred
Racing Assn. showed today.
Incomplete figures through the
end OF July show a slight decline
in the pari-mutuel handle, but
racing officials are highly pleased
at the attendance.
There are reports from 20 of the
80 member tracks of the IRA, the
parent organization which makes
up all the major tracks in this
country. Most of these have COM
pleted their season, or have a fall
session. Some are still in operation
and final figures will come later.
Twenty of the 20 reporting tracks
show attendance gains. while
wagering is up at Is of them.
The 1883 season was the greatest
on record, as q, 1863, 1871 fans turned
out, and produced a two-billion-
dollar pari-mutuel turnover for the
first time. The total wagered was
81, 064, 572, 1884, with total revenue to
the IS racing states being $13S,-
GOA, 146.
While the betting may not ap-
proach 1858 because of various rea-
sons, including tighter dollar,
most tracks will settle on the con-
tinued gains in the gate.
Tracks showing attendance gains
include Omaha's Ak Sar Ben.

Youngsters Are
Urged ToEnter
Fish Tourney

There's lots OF room in the Rudy
Schaefer Fishing Contest for young
anglers. In his instructions to con-
test headquarters, sponsor Rudolph
j. Schaefer said: "Be fair to
everyone, of course, but remember
that today'S youngsters may grow
a bit Straighter if encouraged in
their fishing and out-of-doors
play"
Answering him was 14-year old
Gerald Pledger, Of Panama City
Beach. The 1884 pound bonito he
caught from the Panama City
Beach fishing pier was a class
leader for over two solid months.
Even in early August it holds
down third place. This is a re-
markable thing, considering that
bonitO are stock in trade for pro-
fessional boat captains from Pen
sacoia to Key West to Jacksonville.
Thousands and thousands are
caught each year by those fishing
from ocean boats.
Thus, when a 14-year old lad en-
tiers a 1894 FOUNDER on S-thread
line, but fights it from an i'm
mobile fishing pier, he's earned
extra consideration. He'll get it,
too, for Gerald's catch slides into
a special category. It's ticketed
for perusal by the nine statewide
judges as an outstanding angling
achievement, this decision to be
made after the contest closes On
December 81.
