Aim at Hanna

Carmelo Costa of Brooklyn
and Ike Chestnut Of New York,
who meet in the featherweight
hereunder at Capitol Arena a
week from tomorrow night, both
want return fights against Cherif
Hanna, and a good rousing show
ing might earn the winner such
a fight.
Hanna. the French champion,
is getting close to q title fight
with Sandy Saddler after beat
ing Costa. Chestnut and Miguel
Berries in his campaign in the
United States this year. The
victories over Costa and Chest
nut were split decisions, and
Hanna might be asked to take
on one or the other before get
ting a chance at Saddler.
Costa was a 2-to-1 favorite in
his fight with Hanna, but lost by
"a close margin, while Chestnut
was the 81 underdog when he
also lost close one. The Chest
nut-Hamia fight was held here
at Capitol Arena last month, and
Chestnut was thought to have
done very well with such a close
fight in his first main-event tele-.
