Archie the gypsy win be buck

/ fists. No light heavyweight
champion ever moved on to the
heavy title although seven tried.
Bob Fitzsimmons held both
titles, In fact three In all. but
|he went from middle to heavy
and then back to light-heavy.
Another "jirfx." unearthed by
the IBC publicity stan, says that
no heavy champ ever has lost his
title In Yankee Stadium, where
IL challengers have failed.
Marciane Gives Away Reach
Marciano, larger than Moore
in most measurements, gives
away TIA inches in reach-6e

this gives Moore q chance to

spots and drop In his sharp
punches. But Rocky il . swarm

Archie loves to stand In one

When he 1inds his opening, he
lets 90.
In 40 fights Marciano has won
every one, a by knockouts. He
has been down only once, in the
first round Of his first bout with
Walcott. Moore has q l20-19-5
record for. IA bouts dating back
to 1895. He has knocked out %
opponents and has been stopped
four times. by Jimmy Bivins,
Eddie Booker. Charles and
Leonard Morrow.
Those who like Marciano point
to the fact that Moore never was
able to beat Charles in three
starts and was knocked out once.
However. that was years ago
when Charles was better than he
was when he lost twice to Mar

been better then. too.

Near East Called
Democracy Test

The Near East crisis is q
crucial demonstration" OF
whether the free world viii firm-
ly support democracy wherever II
lis threatened. a leading Jewish
rabbi declared last night.
Rabbi David H. ranitz, spirit
ual leader Of the Adas Israel
Congregation, charged "the free
world has not yet acted firmly
and decisively in the Near East
On the contrary, our ally Eng
land has had the temerity to
come forward In this critical
time with a proposal that little
Israel yield territory to, her land
rich Arab neighbors."
The speakers claimed such
q step would really reward Egypt
for Its policy Of neutralism and
Its readiness to buy arms from
behind the Iron Curtain"
Pointing out that Israel is
completely isolated" and with
out adequate arms, Rabbi Panitz
warned I'VE shall forfeit the con-
fidence and support of present
and potential allies everywhere
If we do not take q Arm stand
to defend democracy wherever it
Is threatened"
