Tout
Pair for Fight
Here Tomorrow

Two of the better known
managers in the fight business
who are trying to get back on
top with their current athletes
will be handling Lightweights
Henry (Toothpick) Brown and
Paoli Rosi in tomorrow nights
television fight from Capitol
Arena.
Brown, from Philadelphia, is
managed by George Katz, who
guided Gil Turner and Bob
Montgomery to championships
in the past. Rosi's businessman
is Charlie Johnston, who goes
back a long way and who has
had numerous good ones. Johns
ton is, or was, manager-of-
record for Archie Moore, al
though Moore doesn't take, or
take to, much managing.
Rosi comes from Italy, and
since being imported has won
IL Of IS fights. Johnston de-
scribes his boy as a combina-
ton boxer-puncher, and claims
people are undertaking his
fighter. Despite Johnston's wall
ing. Rosi isn't particularly UNI
derrated; he couldn't be with
the record he has. He's had
several television appearances in
the past and was liked well
enough to be brought back for
more. Ten of his % pro victories
have been by knockouts.
Brown Highly TOuted
Brown, who gets his Tooth
pick" nickname from being a
rather skinny-looking lad, nat
urally is highly touted by Katz.
The manager unblushingly calls
him the greatest fighter to come
out Of Philadelphia since Tur-
ner.
Brown doesn't look like q
tough fighter, but apparently he
is. His record is a right fancy
one, with "a wins, IA by knock
outs, in 90 bouts. He's lost three
and had two draws, and hasn't
lost a fight since 1854, although
there was one draw on his 1855
slate.
This year he's won both his
starts by first-round knockouts.
Smith, Kanthal Card
For his preliminary lineup
tomorrow night, those fights
that won't go on television,
Ahearn has two drawing cards
in Featherweight Gene Smith
and Heavyweight Len Kanthal,
the latter a popular amateur
fighter around here for several
years who will be making his
pro debut.
Smith fights Stony Parker of
Baltimore in six-rounder and
Kanthal meets Isaac Duke, a
215-pounder from Baltimore, in
four rounds. Other prelims are
Randy Brevard and Ace Starkey,
light-heavyweights, in a four,
and Richie Crump, a stablemate
of Rosi'S, against Don Braun,
lightweights, in six.

Il don't know whether we

you're right" he said. "The
Commissioners just don't under
stand" He demanded to know
why they don't know the details
of the school situation" He cited
I the long debates on the problems.
Ratio Report Disputed
| Mr.. Reynolds scored a recent
report which he said placed the
pupil-teacher ratio in junior and
senior high schools in the District
at 1877 to /.
He criticized plans to transfer
| so teacher salaries from the
Ijunior-senior level next fall to
the elementary schools. Armed
with a graph and a blackboard,
the principal pointed out that
the true junior-senior ratio Is
1919 to /.
"You cannot take the schools
total enrolment and divide it by
the number of teachers" he said.
That way, he held, does not take
into account that one teacher
teaches many classes and often
the same student two or three
times each day.
He said, for example, five Cool
Iidge High School science teachers
teach 767 and not 118 pupils
daily.

D. C. Heads Lack Facts
On Schools, Lowe Says

The Districts director of gen.
eral administration last night
said the Board of Commissioners
feels it is still in the dark about
the city's school problems.
Despite their many months of
wrestling with the District school
dilemma the Commissioners still
feel they don't know enough
about details to reach good con-
clusions, according to Schuyler
Lowe, one of the five panelists
on the teacher shortage.
AS director of general admin
|istration Mr.. Lowe is probably
as close to the board as anyone
in the District Building. He said
the Commissioners "of course
are sympathetic. but they feel
they need to know more Of the
details"
The Commissioners would like
to know. Mr.. Lowe said, exactly
what needs to be Strengthened
out in the District school system
and what it will take to
straighten it out. And what it
will cost to do it,"
Analysis May Answer
The director suggested a "gen-
uine" analysis of the whole
school situation might provide
the answers. It might show
whether we are getting our
moneys worth out of the school
dollar, Mr.. Lowe said.
The panel discussion was held
in Takoma Elementary School,
Piney Branch road and Dahlia
street NV. 1t was sponsored by
the Takoma Home and School
Association.
In addition to Mr.. Lowe, the
Ipanelists were Cedric Reynolds,
principal of Coolidge High
School; John B. Gilliland, pres
ident of the District Congress of
Parents and Teachers; Miss
Katherine Scrivener, assistant to
the assistant superintendent of
elementary schools, and Mrs. S.
G.. English, legislative chairman
jof Takoma School.
Deane Is Moderator
James G. Deane, The Stars
education editor. was moderator.
Mr.. Lowe said the Commits
sioner would not take issue with
Congressional approval Of IS new
teachers for next year when the
board had recommended only 40.
He cited the unusual happen
stance as another case where
the board has been expected
to offer a cure-all for a prob
lem which still has not been
clearly enough defined"
Mr.. Gilliland, champion of
many civic groups and PTA Or
ganizations, which have pressed
for a long time for more teachers,
agreed with Mr.. Lowe on one
point.
