said, land to say different is dis

help to athletes, and he hoped
lit never would.

DR.. Wilson H. Elkins. who sue

introduction of his team with
the remark that Maryland was
like the guy who was not the

Gene Smith Giving Brother
Pointers on Beating Osurio

represents a step upward in the
caliber of Harold's competition.
It also probably will be his long
est fight to date. The younger
Smith has had 10 fights, winning
all except one by knockout. His
only fight that didn't end sud-
denly went four rounds. but
against Osario he probably will
have to travel the entire eight
round route.
Osario never has been knocked
out. At the time of their first
bout. Gene Smith had knocked
out the fighter he met ahead Of
Osario and the one after him,
and when they met for the sec
ond time Gene had stopped three
in a row.
II can truthfully say Osario
is one Of the toughest men I
ever met" Gene said. Hell be
a real test for Harold. That guy
is all arms and elbows and you
have a hard time hitting him"

top flight boxers is reflected in
more changes than usual in the

Middleweight Holly Minis Of
Washington still is high in his
division. but has dropped to the
No. 4 place behind Rocky Castel-
lani. who beat him in a close
fight in Cleveland. Willie Troy
of Washington has dropped from
the first 10 altogether.
Another well known name
missing from the first 10 is
Jimmy Slade among the heavy
weights. Nino Valdez Of Cuba
remains as the No. / challenger
to Champion Rocky Marciano,
while Don Cockell of England,
who fights Marciano next, is
rated No. 2.
The biggest move among light
heavyweights was made by Wilt
Hoepner Of Germany who
jumped from ninth to fourth
after knocking out Gerhard
Hecht for the European title.
Among the welterweights, Kid
Gavilan, the former champion,
has slipped all the way to eighth.

His opponent will be Orlando
Zulueta. the No. 10 contender for
the title.
Just where the fight will be
staged - whether at Turner's

been decided, Ahearn said in a
phone conversation from New
York. where papers were signed
yesterday.
Set for 10 Rounds
Right now the bout is sched-

is sticking around New York try

ing Willie Ketchum. Carriers
manager, into risking the title.
Washington certainly is due
for a championship fight,
Goldie said. After the way that
town has supported fighting all
these years they owe it to us"
Carter is almost unique among
boxing champions. past and
present, in that he currently is
ruling the 135-pounders for the
third time. He lost the title to
Lauro Salas and Paddy De-
Marco, and regained 1t both
times.
Agrees to Meet Lane
One hitch in Goldie's hopes
for a title bout is that Ketchum
already has agreed to a title de-
Tense against Kenny Lane, an
unranked southpaw who lost his
last fight some time in May.
Lane was picked because Of a
SOS, 900 guarantee. Ahearn can't
come UP with that kind Of
money.
However, there isn't always
agreement between Ketchum and
his fighter, apparently. Only
last week while making a speech
accepting the championship
belt, Carter said he expected to
make his next title defense
against Zulueta.

ion. to look after. The cost Of
both, including all necessary adj
juncts, is about the same.
Spring rains, which wash away
so much topsoil, are not tagging
on the job this time Of the year,
and the high turbidity Of most
all local streams is something
to regret. In an article in the
March bulletin Of the Sport
Fishing Institute, DR.. r. w.
Eschmyer says that most fishery
workers believe that turbidity
hurts our fishing. The muddi-
ness interferes with food produce
ton and the feeding of bass and
other fish which find their food
by sight. It keeps back the
growth of aquatic plants which
shelter small food fish and in
sects. Studies made in the field
by trained biologists have proved
that turbidity slows down the
growth of bass, crappie and
channel catfish. In ponds. muddy
water cuts plankton way down.
So, when you see a muddy
stream, remember what harm
this does to aquatic life and also
remember that it can be cured
by proper land conservation
measures.

thing is being done about the

six runs in the sixth inning for a

get only four hits OF three
Annandale pitchers. but utilized
four errors for most Of their
runs. Cloud struck out 10.

runner past second base.
In two Northern Virginia
Group I League games Wash
ington-Lee eased past George
Washington. sd, and Mount
Vernon walloped Fairfax, 1874.
Ed Johnson. 6-foot-3 right
handler for WI, survived for his
opening-game win despite some
shoddy support by his mates in
the early innings. The Gen.
erals scored the winning run in
the bottom half of the eighth
on a walk to Don Goddard. a
fielder's choice and Dave Browns
