LOUISVILLE, KY. July 10
(P.-Post bout verbal clashes
produced almost as much ex-
citeinent last night as the
nationally televised fight in
which joey Giardello took a
unanimous. but unpopular, de-
cision over Chico Vejar.
Vejar. an unranked middle
weight, played a hit-and-run
game Giardello, the heavier
puncher of the pair and the
favorite. had the fight carried
to him many times, but waited
for the opening for a bout
ending punch. 1t never came.
After the nearly 5000 fans
at. Freedom Hall shouted their
disapproval of the decision, the
action continued on into the
dressing room where Steve
Ellis. who handled Vejar, an
nounced he had been tossed
out of Giardello's dressing
room,
Ellis, in a verbal battle with
Tony Ferrante, Giardello's
manager. challenged the win
ner to a rematch-winner take
all.
Ferrante accepted.
Then Promoter Bill King
said "Giardello never will fight
mere again as long as he has
anything to do with Ferrante."
King said the statement was
the result of financial differ
enceS between himself and
Giardello's manager. King
claimed Ferrante wanted 30
per cent Of the gate instead of
the Is per cent he had origi-
nallv agreed upon.
King said Ferrante had
threatened not to allow Giar-
dello to fight unless the higher
figure were forthcoming.

him crisply. His accident was
a million to-one shot. a freak,
and the sooner he's convinced
of it the better of he'll be. He
can't go through the winter

losses. the public address an
nouncer got in the act.
Announcer Pete Byron, after
comforting with Donatelli,
said: Here is an explanation
Of the play you just saw. Logan
trapped the ball. Bouchee was
forced and Hammer was tagged
out"
This Infatuated the Phils
and the rhubarb was on. Ham
ner roared in from second.
Manager Mayo Smith rushed
out. Roberts came of the
mound with blood in his eye.
In the heat of the battle,
Conlan suddenly banished Rob-
erts. The usually gentle
tempered Robbie exploded and
had to be held by Smith and
the umpires.
The fans began to hurl beer
cans onto the field. When the
long hassle was over. the
ground crew had to be called
out to clear the field.
Roberts. who only once be-
fore in his 10-year career had
been given the heave while
participating in a game, said:
Il called him a name. He had
a right to throw me out"
But Robbie maintained
Hammer never was tagged.
Roberts abrupt departure
and the rhubarb helped the
Pills not at all. The Braves
clobbered five other hurlers for

Here is Conlan's account of
the play:
Il said the ball was trapped.
Bouchee is forced. II (Red)
Schoendienst (the second base
mani had tagged Hammer first
and then touched the bag, he'd
have had a double play. When
he touched the bag first, Ham
ner was all right if he had
stayed there. But Hammer took
off for third and Schoendienst
tagged him. 1t was as simple
as that. The ball players al
ways get that play wrong"
Manager Smith based his
protest on the failure of the
umpires to call time while they
made up their minds on the
play. He said they exposed
Hammer to becoming the
second half of an unusual
doubleplay.

Freight car shortages still kept
the railroads from handing all
the business available during
peak periods, but the problem
was not as tight as in 1855.
Approximately $1,000 new cars

A number of railroads began
running revolutionary. light

effort to cut passenger losses.
In an Associated Press survey of
the passenger problem. leading
rail executives viewed these
trains as still too experimental

Lumber Trade
Exudes Gloom

PORTLAND, Ore. Jan. 4 up.
The lumber industry. shy of
buyers despite price cuts, wound
up 1856 with more widespread
worry than at any time since
the war.
Lumbermen blame the govern
ment's tight money policy for
putting a brake on new home
building. They say they can't
see an end to their troubles be-
fore spring and will need a
change in residential construc-
ton financing to get it then.
In the hardwood regions Of
the South and the North Central
States. mills producing lumber
for furniture escaped the set
back because furniture demand
was excellent all through the
year. But hardwood flooring
mills felt the pinch along with
the mills turning out pine and
fir construction and finishing
numbers.
Extent Of the industry's woes
was pointed UP when the lumber
and sawmill workers union said
the industry was too demon
allied" in late fall to talk about
higher pay. The union passed
up a chance to reopen contracts
with a number Of Portland area
mills.

mediately prior to the Korean
fighting. independent operators
clamored for Eederal curbs,
President Eisenhower vetoed
the long sought Harris bill which
would have removed natural gas
wellhead prices from Federal
controls. The President said the
veto was necessary because OF
improper lobbying activities on
the part of a small segment of
the industry.
