same could be said of Jack

But there is nothing about
Seixas' or Trabert's games which
really stand out. Their strokes
are quite ordinary-in Seixas'
case, very unorthodox. I am no

"I feel Savitt could be unques-

NEW YORK, May 8 P,.-
Virgil Atkins was hoping today
that his surprising eighth-round
knockout of Ronnie Delaney
wouldn't scare off any other
high-ranking opponents.
The 25-year-old st. Louis vet

tened the sixth-ranking middle

Ohio, with a picture left hook
and right to the jaw in 2:41 OF

Atkins, a one-time lightweight
contender now fighting in the
welterweight class. has had
plenty of trouble in the past

him. Knocking out the formid-
able Delaney isn't going to make
it any easier. It was Atkins
fourth straight victory and his
third kayo in row.
It was the first time Ronnle
has been stopped in 81 and it
was only the second defeat OF
his career. Atkins scored his
9th victory against 13 defeats
and his 18th knockout.
