champion had a wide cut opened
over the orb in the fourth round
and the trickling blood inter-
fered with his vision for several
rounds. Marciano had the scar
tissue removed in an operation
and it has healed smoothly.
Scoring of the bout will be
by rounds with supplement
tary point system to help break
draws. The winner of each
round gets from one to four
points. the loser none.
The three-knockdown rule and
the mandatory eight-count for
knockdowns have been waived,
as usual, for the title fight.
Both fighters broke camp yes

from Grossinger. N. Y, while
Charles drove to the city from
Monticello, N. Y.
The undefeated Marciano will
be seeking his 47th victory. He
has won 40 fights by knockouts.
Charles has a 86-11-1 record
with So kayos. He's been stopped
twice, by Lloyd Marshall and
Jersey Joe Walcott.
Rocky should collect another

Beats Cartier Friday

Promoter Goldie Ahearn thinks
he has chance to rematch Mid
dleweights Willie Troy and Holly
Minis of Washington If Troy
wins his fight against Walter
Cartier at Turner's Arena Fri
day night.
Minis ended Troy's 19-fight
winning streak early last year,
and Ahearn ever since has been
trying to match the two again.
Troy's loss to Minis hasn't
been forgotten by Washington
fans even though Troy has
scored two impressive knockout
victories here since. He stopped
Lee Sala and Randy Sandy, both
good fighters. yet those bouts
largely have been overlooked by
fans who keep wondering what
Troy is going to do about Minis.
Al WE'LL, Troy's manager, said
he wanted a rematch soon after
the fight last year and couldn't
get it, and since then he lost in
terest with Troy going good
elsewhere. But Ahearn says he
has been in contact with WE'LL
and that WE'LL shows Wiling
ness to talk rematch again.

to do so.

Two of the "first-timers" are
Quarterback Bill Mills, who was
team manager last year, ano
Tony Washington, an end, bet
ter known for his ability as a
baseball pitcher and basketball
player. Another basketball
player and also an end is Char
ley Queen. Both Washington
and Queen are 6 feet and about
ITO pounds and have good hands
for Snagging passes.
. The passing situation, however,
is one of Hills biggest head
aches. Mills needs polishing in
that phase, whereas Don Wills,
the other quarterback, is bet
ter passer but doesn't direct the
team as well.
+, The two biggest assets in the
line are Tackles Olin Robinson,
205 pounds. and Reggie Taylor,
210 pounds. The guards show
ing to best advantage thus far
are Jesse Saunders and Ralph
Chase while the center of the
line is anchored by Iverson Tray
wick.
Teaming with Mills and Wills
in the backfield are Halfbacks
George Green and Benjamin
Dupre and Fullbacks George
Williams and Bill Mayo. Green,
also a baseball player, is a fast,
elusive runner and Dupre, at s.
foot-8 and 18O pounds, has
plenty of drive on line plunges.
Williams, 6-foot, 100 pounds, is
hard runner and saw action
against Huntington but will give

Phelps already has one game
under it's belt and-you guessed

says that his club should have

But it was an educational trip,

was weak at ends, but he hastens

ends, Donald N. Scott and Glenn

Phelps should be in fair shape
