sIz.z ACH day this week
an event of special
= interest is taking
- place at Slaughter
: Beach in celebra-
tion of the revival of big
Thursday" This Home Com
ing Week has brought many to
the resort to see what goes
on and to meet old friends.
The boat parade on Sunday
was interesting and people
lined the beach to watch the
different types of water craft
as they passed in review. The
carnival goes on every night
and is important to the young
set. In spite of the influx of
mosquitoes, the daily spraying
has kept them under control
and it has been pleasant for
visits down there. There are
many theories about the nam
ing of the resort, but to local
folk, the name is not so i'm
portant as the visits of peo-
pie who have made Slaughter
Beach a meeting place for 10,
these many years. Sunday will
conclude the celebration.

Bill Rosensohn, who is promot-

championship fight. is not one
to toss away 1000 admissions
so the bout may be held June

Here is how Rosensohn fig
ureS:
IT told some people in Sweden
I could make the date June rs
if it would help bring more
spectators over" he said today.
That would allow two extra
days past the proposed date
of June %.
IT was told that between
5000 and 5000 people from
Sweden would come for the
fight. But it depends on trans

500 can be flown over daily"
RosenSohn added that Jo-

Tests Indicate
Ted Has No
Bone Trouble

BOSTON, Mar. 81 (AP) -
Ailing Ted Williams apparently
has no bone dislocation or frac-
ture and apparently is not af-
flicted with arthritiS, doctors
said X-ray pictures showed
today.
A bulletin also reported the
40-year-old Red Sox outf1elder
spent a rather uncomfortable
night at New England Baptist
Hospital.
Orthopedic specialists on the
staff of Lahey Clinic and the
hospital will confer later today
about baseball's most widely
known pain in the neck.
That's how Williams described
his trouble when he arrived by
plane Sunday night from the
Red Sox training camp at
Scottsdale, Ariz. He has been
logged by pain for two weeks.
The bulletin said sympto-
matte treatments were being
continued.
A hospital spokesman said
the next bulletin would be
issued tomorrow morning I'M
less there should be a note
worthy development.
Williams, defending Ameri-
can League batting champion
whose club opens play April 10
in New York, insisted yester-
day there was no reason why
he wouldn't be in the lineup at
that time.
Later he showed signs of dis
couragement, a dmitting 1t
might be much longer.
If doctors connected with
the case have definite ideas
about the time of Williams re-
covery, it is well-kept secret.
They don't say he will be ready
April 10. They don't say he
won't.
Victim of II major physical
setbacks dating from his broken
left elbow of 1850, baseball's
greatest natural hitter ap-
parently has a pinched nerve
in his neck which sends stab
bling pains into his right
shoulder and back when he
turns his head to the right,
Sometimes it makes his breath
ing difficult.
