held a 400-yard lead over Stirling

Hawthorn and Juan Fangio of
Argentina, driving Red Ferrari

Jones Spells
'Humez Debut
.by0ne Point

NEW YORK. Mar. "a (P. -
Ralph (Tiger) Jones, the spoiler
of the middleweight division, has
done it again.
This time the victim was
.punch-scarred Charley Humez,
Frances European 160-pound
champion, making his United
States pro debut. Fourteen
months ago it was Sugar Ray
Robinson, the song and dance
man on the comeback path.
Humez was edged by the Tiger
in a very, very close television
hereunder in Madison Square
Garden last night, but hopes to
get his long-sought shot at the
world title.
One point on Judge Forbes
scorecard was the difference be-
tween a Humez defeat and a
draw. The single point snapped
Humez' 17-fight, 2l2-year un-
beaten streak.
Forbes. scoring heavily for
Jones in the first half of the
fight, had the bout even in
rounds, SIS, but the Tiger in
front on points. 81. Referee
Ruby Goldstein pumped for
Yonkers, N. Y, contender, Sal.
Judge Bert Grant gave it to the
28-year-old Frenchman on his
fine, second-half rally, SOL.
The Associated Press had Humez
ahead, Ga. Boxing writers also
split with a majority for Jones,
IT'S, and two even. That's how
close it was.
Jones, eight ranking contender
and supposedly the weaker
puncher of the two, dominated
the first half. Humez bled from
the nose in the first round and
suffered a deep. ugly cash over
his left eye in the fourth.
That forced Humez to change
his style-and for the better too.
The 28-year-old Jones con-
nected with enough solid blows
in the sixth and eighth to keep
ahead SO that Humez' rally in
the ninth and tenth wasn't
enough in the opinion of Gold
stein and Forbes.
Humez defeat was partially
salved by a $1,000 check (same
for jones', $4,000 Of it from the
radio television receipts. The.
estimated crowd of 5000 paid
approximately $4,000. Humez
outWeighed Jones, 159 to 1874.
