SAXTON A MAN TO WATCH AMONG WELTERS
Whenever boxing fane discuss welterweight* of today, they usu
ally mention champion Kid Oavilan, Johnny Bratton and moat re
cently Carmen Basilio They also recall OU Turner, Del Flanagan and
a boat of other*. Rarely, however, do they mention the man who may
be the toughest of them all. Johnny Saxton.

?< V •
Last week Saxton scored on* of hl* greatest victories. He easily
outpointed Philly'a Joey Glardello, rated one of the nation's top mid
dleweights. His efficient job established him once more as one of the
ring's best fighters, pound for pound.
Saxton was much more Impressive in his victory than was Johnny
Bratton, who barely outpointed Al (Sugar) Wilson in a 10-round
battle. Wilson is a run of the mill welter who doe* not have too im
pressive a record.
Glardello is a hard hitting kayo artist who hopes for a middle
weight championship match. He is a Phllly home town favorite who
could do nothing before his fans in his bout with Saxton.
As thia ringaider sees it, Saxton should be the first challenger
for the winner of th* potential Bratton-Gavllan title bout, despite the
showing of Basilio against Gavllan. And it would not be a surprise if
Saxton won either.
Speaking of whether or not Gavllan will defend or not, Bratton
after his bout with Wilson commented!
“Gavllan won’t give up his championship. That's Just a lot of talk.
No one gives up a championship unless he has another title in view
and Gavllan won't get the chance at the middleweight for some time.
So you can be sure I’ll be fighting him for the welterweight title.”
JIMMIE CARTER SIGNS TO DEFEND TITLE NOV. 11
Armistice Day will not be one of peace in Montreal. Canada. On
that evening world lightweight champion Jimmie Carter of New York
will defend his title in Montreal against Armand Savoie, a home town
boy.
It win be a 18-round deal. Details of financial arrangements have
not been announced. Neither has there been any statement made on
the question of Television.
This will be the first time in history that Montreal has aver had
a title fight. A big crowd probably will show up to see their home
town favorite make good.
Whether or not these fans will have anything to cheer about ap
pears to be doubtful. Savoie is rated only ninth among lightweight
contenders. Thia ringalder haa seen him fight only once against
former featherweight champion Willie Pep. Savoie lost that one, a 10-
rounder. to a Pep who haa gone back quite a bit.
Unless Carter haa undergone a radical reversal in form, he will be
In no danger of losing his title to Savoie. Armand is a hard fighting
boy, he Is too wide open to take on a dangerous slugger like Carter.
WALLACE POPS BACK INTO THE HEAVYWEIGHT SCENE
Just when th* pugilistic world had considered the heavyweight
division just about dead with about only one fighter, champion Rocky
Marciano. Coley Wallace exhibited a brilliant display of punching
power as he knocked out Billy Gilliam tn Brooklyn.
Currently, Marciano is looking for a suitable opponent for his
next title defense which presumably will corns next February. Most
prominently mentioned a* his next opponent is Ezzanl Charles, the
former champ, providing he whips light heavy Harold Johnson In
Phllly in a rematch.
Other names also popping up. Some say Rocky will fight Archie
Moore down in Argentina where they could draw a big crowd. Archie
la the light heavy king, but he appears to be too old to do the job
Someone has even suggested the bringing up of Joey Maxim as
the next challenger. Please not that. Thia bout will be held tn Miami
If it is fought.
From this comer it appears that Wallace may by next summer
be the man to give Rocky a real challenge. Coley apparently learned
quite a bit from playing Joe Louis In 'The Joe Louis Story." He la
big. strong, and has a heavy punch. Even Charles could not put away
Gilliam as Wallace did.
"Watch out for Wallace among the heavies.”

Rowdies To Be
Barred From
Future Dances
D. P. Black, aance promoter
who ha* been responsible for
bringing most of th<- big dance or
chestra* and combos to the Twin
Cities Issued a statement Tues
day to the effect that In the fu
ture person* who cause disorder
and fight* at the affairs will be
barred from future dance*
Those In this category who pur
chase advance tickets will be re
funded their money at the door.
This will include females a* well
as males. Miss Black said.
Miss Black cited the fact that
the rowdies who fight at the
dances are in the minority, but
that their acts spoil the recrea
tion and pleasure of the majority
who come to enjoy themselves
The promoter said she will file
charges with authorities against
any person or persons who start
fights at the affair*
She said, "I think the dance
and music lover* who patronize
these affair* have a right to be
protected from the brawler* who
have no regard for the rights of
other*."
The promoter said that for
years Negroes were not allowed
to rent halls In the Twin Cities
for public events because of the
behaviour of a few "bad actors.”
She said that during most of her
promotions that disorder has been
kept at a minimum, but that at
recent affairs the brawling has
been renewed. Hence, she has in
structed her staff to refuse ad
mission to the persons involved In
the fight at the Johnny Otis
dance last. week.
Anyone who starts a fight at
future dances will have charges
preferred against them in the
police courts, Miss Black averred
Mau Mau Blamed in
Fatal Stabbing of Nun
Nairobi. Kenya (ANP)
Hungry Mau Maus were blamed
last week for the fatal stabbing
of an Italian nun at an isolated
Roman Catholic mission at Imen
tl. on the eastern slopes of Mount
Kenya.
Police said Sister Eugenia, sec
ond in charge of the nuns at the
mission, was killed when the Mau
Maus reportedly made a vain at
tempt to steal food from the mis
sion The sister was stabbed by
a jungle knife as she ran from the
kitchen at the rear of the building.
Mission priests exchanged shots
with the raiders in an effort to
halt them. In the melee, one priest
suffered a wound on the head by a
knife blow
Police said the attack, the third
against the mission since the
emergency began, last October,
was not a determined one.
Meanwhile, one supposedly Mau
Mau was killed and four others
captured in three attacks in streets
here Another native escaped with
$420 from a payroll at a medical
research laboratory

Don Morgan was on the winning team as Washington High de
feated Johnson 7 to 6 at Central Stadium on Oct. 3.
Lee Ballard scored one touchdown for Mechanic Arts as the
Iners beat Murray 2« to 13. Garrett kicked two
points.
The Mechanic Arts-Central game looms as the
Paul prep game of the year. Central will be the
rnrite. but it won't mean much because anything
■ happen.
St Paul's Central Hi got rolling again as they
. over Wilson 45 to 25. Bob Blakley scored three
hdowns Jim Walton continues his stellar play
id. Central’s attack was versatile and it appears
>ubtful that any of the other teams with the re-
mote exception of Mechanic arts will be able to
handle the Central griddeni.

Well another World Series has gone by and the N. Y. Yankee*
are still the World Champions I picked the Bums in six games. The
only thing correct about my prediction was that the series went six
games!
In a short series the Yanks are really tough but over the long
haul of the season where teams face each other for 22 games I
would pick the Bums.
Mel Goss and Sterling Owens are playing for a team backed by
a St. Paul clothing firm in the Twin City Amateur League. The team
is undefeated and is a real threat to the East Side A. C. defending
champions.
Martin Williams. St. Agnes half is still on an undefeated team.
The Aggies defeated Rochester Lourdes 13 to 7 Oct. 4. Williams'
brother Stephen is a member of St. Agnes B team which dropped one
to Murray 13 to 0 on Oct. 6 at McMurray Field.
Minneapolis Central's speed merchants. Dick Robinson and
George Jones looked good last Friday when the Pioneers shellacked
South 25 to 6, Both of the lads hit pay dirt for a TD apiece and
Robinson was really effective in stopping South's much vaunted aerial
attack.
In the game of the week at the Parade stadium under the lights,
it was North against Vocational. North’s big powerful line was too
much for Richary Greene. Kenneth Grigsby and company from Voca
tional.
It was a nip and tuck game until the last period. The Polars
were the first to score and Vocational came right back and made it
even. But from then on it was all North who made two touchdowns in
quick order to put the game on ice.
As a result of Friday's games, the prep title in the Mill City is
anybody's guess. Central. North and Vocational are all strong con
tenders.
In the opening game of the season, Central beat North, the next
week Vocational defeated Central and last week North beat Voca
tional.
How about this Leroy Bolden, the lightest man on the field scor
ing three touch downs against Minnesota as Michigan State won 21
to 0? Bolden was one of the unheralded backs of the Big Ten but he
definitely arrived Saturday and will be a strong candidate for All-
American honors.
A few years ago a person could name every Negro football grid
der on every big college and University team. Today it is impossible
because just about every big time college football team North of the
Mason Dixon line have Negro members on the squad. We have come
a long way in the sports world in making democracy work. Other
areas of human life have a long way to go to catch up with the
equality ot opportunity present in both amateur and professional
sports.

"L’ska Dara” and “C'est Si Bon”,
here she cornea romping through
with another topper, which, from
the way we see it, stands an ex
cellent chance of eclipsing her
other offerings.
Title of this newie about which
we rave is I WANT TO BE EVIL,
an item which breathes more sex
than C’est Si Bon” —but in rather
good taate. On this side, she tells
of how tired she is af being “pure
and not chaste.” An unusual song,
finely produced and of the type
which fits admirable the Kitt
tremolo, It boasts the orchestral
meanderings again by Henri
Rene and crew.
The flip, a stylized verson of
ANNIE DOESN’T LIVE HERE
ANYMORE, is an example of a
type song which we feared Kitt
would run into and which she
ought to avoid, if she’s to keep on
the upward trend. Done with a
sentimental and rather different
slant, using a male quartet to
back her, this side does not come
up to the "great expectations."
But then that’s the way it
usually is with a record One side
is a topper, and the other side a
dud, or an also ran. We predict
that should Eartha continue with
such good material as "Bon",
"Evil”, and “Dara", she will soon
be closeted in that inner circle of
greats, like Ella Fitzgerald. Pearl
and Mildred Bailey. Billie Holiday
and the rest.
Incidentally, there has been a
lot of comment on Eartha’s rather
nasty treatment of press mem
bers. It seems she’s a study in
moods to the extreme. If you
catch her right, as very few have
been able to, everything is peaches
and cream; but for those in the
majority who are not fortunate,
look out brother, the teeth are
bared and the claws unsheathed.
With such a voice and personal
ity as she possesses, she should be
able to overcome her “dislike"
for most people, especially those
not in the entertainment world
Come to think of it. wonder if
her attitude might not be a pub
