PHILADELPHIA PROMOTER
TRIES TO OUIBID ITALIAN
FOR MOORE FIGHT

New York (ANP) - Herman
Taylor, veteran Philadelphia pro-
moter, has offered to guarantee
Archie Moore $4,000 to meet
Harold Johnson in a showdown at
Madison Square Garden June 10
that should settle once and for all
the question of who is the rightful
and sole claimant Of the light
heavyweight title.
AS things now stand, the title
Is divided in two parts Harold
johnson was proclaimed champion
of the division in the 4S states
supervised by the National Box
ing Association after he stopped
Jesse Bowdry in a NBA-sponsored
bout in st. Louis recently.
Moore, whose title was vacated
by the NBA for failure to defend
it for more than a year, is still
recognized as champion in New
York, Massachusetts, and in Eur
ope.
Actually, Taylor's offer was a
move to outmaneuver Giulio Rim
aldi, the Italian challenger, who
arrived here last week to begin
training in anticipation of meet
ing Moore in a title bout. Backers
of the italian had previously guar
anteed Moore $4,000 to fight
their idol for the title.
Although Moore has beaten
Johnson in previous fights, the
last time by a knockout in the
14th round, Johnson's hackers feels
that old Archie is now ready to be
taken. They are basing this belief
on the fact johnson is young,
strong and in top shape, while
Moore at about 45, has his best
years behind him.

Sfifh's Spirit Good;
viii Make Comeback

Olean, N. Y. (ANP) - Tom
Stith, the great st. Bonaventure
star, was such an outstanding bas-
ketball player and fine gentleman,
that when he was taken i'll recent
ly with pulmonary tuberculosis,
the newspapers and other news
medias carried elaborate stories
lamenting his loss to the New
York Knickerbockers. The profess
sional basketball team had ac-
quired Stith as their No. draft
choice from among graduating COL
lege stars.
Faces Future CourageOusly
But Sdth himself was taking
the setback courageously. His
spirit was not broken, and he felt
certain that after proper treat
ment and rest he could make a
comeback. He cited as example the
return to major league baseball
of Red Schoendiest, who was
stricken with the same disease
while a member of the Milwaukee
Braves.
Before he was transferred from
st. Francis Hospital here to a
sanitarium at Mount Morris, NY,
Stith said:
II don't know how long I'll
be here, but I'm not down. l won't
play this year, maybe. 1t takes
a while to cure, they tell me, but
remember Red Schoendienst
came back to big league baseball
with the same thing"
Surprised By Disclosure
The laboratory diagnosis dis
closing the disease came as a sur
prise to Stith. He had been
thought to be suffering only from
a rundown condition brought on
by the strain of a gruelling season
in which he led the Bonnies to a
great season and to the semi-finals
of the NCAA tournament at Kan
sas City. He finished the season
with a 29.6 scoring average, and
was easily one of the nations best
college players.
Stith had gone to the hospital
for a checkup after he had lost
and failed to regain some 20
pounds. He said, apart from being
tired, he felt fine"
Wins Bride, $500 Contract
It was a serious setback to
Stith in other ways, too, had just
won the hand of his bride, the
former Gladys Smith, and they had
looked forward to a bright future
together.
In addition, the National Bas-
ketball Association team, delighted
over having obtained the best
player the Knicks had an oppor-
tuhity to select in the draft for
many years" had given Tom an
$4,000 contract for the 1961-62
season.
But setbacks and hardships are
not new to Tom and his brother
Sam, who now lives in Cleveland.
When they were still children, they
lost both their parents. 1t was a

in Brooklyn. They studied hard

Bonaventure college, where Tom
won All-American honors.

Spectators Get Kicks
Almost every match pro-
duced a kick for the spectators.
In the first round Dietsch
won three games from Stair
who averted a shutout by
snatching the fourth, LA to
l42. Pessagno broke even with
Volk by winning the fourth,
lat to 145. HammondS squared
his match with Weldon by
taking the last, 113 to 106.
Peabody shot 143 and 157 to
grab two from Berthold, tied
one at 119 and lost 1873 to 119.
In the second round Dietsch
was outpointed by Berthold,
523 to 513, yet won two games.
Hammonds rolled 100 to escape
a blanking by PesSagno while
totaling 491 to Pessagno's 400.
Stair won the first from Pea
body by 118 to lit, dropped the
second 146 to 1913 and in the
fourth shot 161 only to lose.
Against it Peabody tossed a
ITS.
Miss Traber Rebounds
Miss Wilson looked a cinch
to swamp Miss Traber in the
opening round by taking the
first game lat to 108, but the
Georgian retaliated with 131 to
ITO, lost the third by only 112
to 108 and again rebounded to
win the fourth by 118 to ia.
In the third round, Weldon
earned a deadlock with Ber-
thold by shooting 153 against
148 in one of the most excit-
ing games of the tournament,
in which the two matched sew
en- spares. At the same time
Passagno was winning by 124
to 1913 to stave off a whitewash-
ing by Stair. Unperturbed by
a 136-114 lacing in the first
game, Dietsch moved down the
19-year-old up-and-c o m n g
Hammonds in the next three,
in the last two with tallies Of
159 and 1855.
In a brilliantly contes ed
| fourth-round match, Stair hurt
Weedon's chance to win the
event by snatching three
games, two of them with scores
of ISL and 159. Hammonds
. said by many to be the most
promising youngster in duck
pins, won three from Peabody
! and, in what seemed to bt
t something of a showdown, VolE
nailed DietSch 3 to /, with Isl
