Mederos Battles Carter
AT Beach Tuesday Night

The highly publiciZed Cuban
heavyweight Julio Mederos, whose
last two bouts were national tele-
vision fights, returns to action
Tuesday night at the Miami Beach
Auditorium.
Promoter Chris Dundee has
matched the hard hitting youth
with Harold Carter, UP and COM
ing sensation from Newark, N. j.
for his 10 round main event.
In his last fight Mederos stou-
ped the No. / light heavyweight
contender Harold Johnson in two
rounds at Philadelphia. Previously
he lost a 10 round decision to
the highly regarded Bob Baker in
a TV scrap.
MederoS began fighting here last
year. He was always a pleasing
performer with a knockout right
hand wallop, but il wasn't until
this winter that he skyrocketed to
fistic fame.
Julio startled the fistic world
several months ago when he
AlIOGhC0 Oub lllC highly lOOtCO
Roland LaStarza at the Miami
Stadium. 1t was the first time in
LaStarza'S career that he had
been counted out and Roland
fought Rocky Marciano twice.
The new Cuban sensation has
won 18 of 27 fights with IA
knockouts. Standing 60 and
scaling 1875 pounds Mederos seems
to be improving as he goes along.
In Carter, Julio faces punch
er who is also a clever boxer.
Carter, stablemate of Bud
Smiths, has won II of Is pro
scraps and has flattened eight
opponents.
Carter owns victories over Joe
Lindsay, the Beach's latest heavy
weight star, Wayne Bethea and
Joe Rowan.
The Newark fighter, managed
by the astute Vic Marsillo, will
be making his first showing in
this area.
Since both are punchers it isn't
likely that the Mederos-Carter
bout will go the full 10 rounds,
but the fans should be in for an
.action-packed evening.

NEWCOMER
LABELLED
SHOWOFF; BUT
BATS .4O5

ST. LOUIS - (CNS) ST.
Louis newspapers had field day
criticizing Big Don Newcombe's
mannerism of going to the resin
bag between every pitch. They
tried to label him a Showoff for
the manneriSm which has de-
lighted the fans who root for the
big fellow each time at bat.
Newcombe will tell you that
it's no manneriSm this calling
for the resin bag so much, for his
reason is TO keep him out of court.
Six years ago, in a game against
Philly at EbbettS Field, the bat
slipped out of Newk's hand and
hit spectator. The woman claim
ed injury to her arm and sued
for $500. The case has just been
settled out of court for $3.50.
Says Newk: my hands perspire
more than most guysl / have TO
go to the bag a lot; sometimes two
and three times a pitch"
When asked why others didn't
do it, he said: "Other guys use
pine-tar on their bat handles. But
/ can't use it because it makes my
hands too sticky and / wouldn't
be able to PITCH
Thus the mannerism will stand
and it plus Newcomers 400 hit
ting and his pitching Odd make
him one of the biggest drawing
cards in baseball.

The young bride choosing sill

formed buyer, for table silver
may-like the new husband
last lifetime and be an i'm
portant part of everyday living.
Both the senses and the pock-
etbook will influence the silver
ware decision. Does the silver
and its design delight the eye
aesthetically? Does the shape

flatware feel right when Graded

From the practical angle, one
will want to buy quality. Sterl-
ing silver flatware is every young
girls dream. For more limited
budgets, quality silver plate
basic metal coated with silver
can give enduring beauty and
service.
Some silver-plated flatware not
only has heavy-duty plating
but has sterling inlaid in the
most pieces. This means
that blocks of sterling silver
are inlaid at points of greatest
wear before silver plating is done.
{ Patterns available in f1atware
range from the simplicity and
flowing grace of modern lines to
the classic elegance of more for
NAL designs.
Treat table silver casually but
correctly, and the original in

what color and type of fabric for
the club chair? The woodwork
in both rooms is now white.
Should I leave it that way OF
should I paint it to match the

Answer-A scenic pattern on
a parchment background would
be nice for the wallpaper above
the dado in your dining room.
Paint the dado, living room walls

choice for the upholstery on the

Question: am planning to
redecorate my bedroom, which
is quite small. I would like to
paint the walls a dusty rose

paint the walls, woodwork and
ceiling all the same color or
should I paint the ceiling and

modern pattern in light blue and
black on a white background
which I would like to use in the

I would like to paint. What color
would you advise? Also, what
colors could be good for lamp

Answer-Painting walls. wood

Daily use of silver also guaran-
tees that it will not collect tar

silverware does need polishing.
use a good liquid polish and soft
cloth, applying and polishing
with lengthwise motions. An
other good protection is to keep
silverware encased, when not in
use, in tarnish preventive cloth.
How much flatware is de-
sirable to set up housekeeping? :?
One can give that first impor-
tant supper at home with just
four place settings. Serving
pieces also are useful. The most
frequently used are serving
spoons and a cold-meat fork.
| If silver hollow ware Is in
