GaviIan Bout Sought
For Flanagan After
Victory Over Gronik
By the Associated Press

DETROIT. June 17.-Pro-
moter Nick Londes few to New
York today to start negotiations
for a Kid Gavilan-Del Flanagan
title fight in Detroit this fall.
The Motor City-a hot sports
town-hasn't had a title fight
since March, 1851, when Ezzard
Charles defended his title against
Jersey Joe Walcott. Londes feels
a bout between Flanagan. Sec
ond-ranking welterweight con-
tender, and Gavilan. the cham
pion, would fill Detroit's Olym-
pia Stadium.
Flanagan took armer hold
on his No. 2 ranking last night
with a unanimous l0-round
| breeze over Detroit's Allie Gro
mix, q willing but crude boxer.
81 plan to talk with Angel
Lopez" Londes said. Maybe we
can reach an agreement soon, ="
| Lopez Is Gavilan's manager.
Flanagan, 25-year-old hopeful
from st. Paul. quickly spoiled
any hopes Gronik had of becom-
ing big time. He stabbed, jabbed
and danced to victory in their
nationally televised fight at
Olympia Stadium.
The few punches Gronik
landed were wild shots in the
dark. Flanagan hardly blinked
at them.
Referee Tom Briscoe gave
Flanagan a 1888 margin. Judge
Johnny Weber had it 1888, while
the other judge, Jack Aspery
saw it 97-85.
Gronik weighed 1917 to Elan

Christ's special ways of channelling
His graces-His light and strength
and holiness-into human beings.
Holy Orders is the Sacrament
that gives a priest the grace TO be
good priest. If he isn't a good
priest. it's not Christ's fault; it's
his. He's a shirker and a traitor,
like man who betrays his coun-
try. If he'll cooperate with the
grace of Holy Orders. he'll be a
good priest.
Christian marriage is the Sacra-
ment that provides every grace a
husband and wife need for a good
marriage. If they neglect those
graces. they betray each other and
their children and God and the
whole human race, because every
body has a stake in every mar
riage. Marriage is the cement of
decent civilization.
