WHEN OLD FRIENDS MEET
, participation In a crap game early
one morning last week proved
co.stty —in more ways than one—
to France* Shaw-, of 3914 Hasting*
street.
As a result of her willingness to
learn the fine art of shooting dire,
po’: e are going around asking:
"Coat, coat . . . who's got her
coa’’”
Wearing a br;ght vellow bow of
yellow feathers atop her long
blark tresses and looking eye ap
pealing—being a curvaceous sweat
er girl—Mia* Shaw w’as loud and
in«i.stent in her testimony that Ma
laehi Williams. 33, of 3147 Jay
street, knew the whereabouts of
her missing $129 fur coat. <
Pointing an accusing, but small,
Anger at Williams, she told the
court Recorder's Judge Gerald
Gro.it—"He said to give him S2O
and he d get my coat back.”
Testimony disclosed that Miss
Shaw and a friend, George Clip
per. 44. of 6R2 Superior street, had
gone to the home of William* at
the Jay street address, w'here she
bought some whiskey and beer. I
A short time later, according to
Miss Shaw, Williams asked her if
she knew anything about gamb
ling. When she answered: "No,'*
he her for two dollars, gave
her the dice and the game was on.
"I didn’t know whether I’d won
or Joat. But they gave me back
six dollars and seventy-five cants,”
she told the court
Later, an argument arose, when,
according to Miss Shaw. William*
attempted to put some crooked
d ee in the same, and to which
one of the other gamblers objected.
Then came Mbs Shaw's sad awak
ening: her fur coat was missing.
Police were called and confis
cated four pairs of dice and four
decks of cards. Acting on the
complaint of the missing coat, five
men were held for gambling.
Held were Malachi Williams,
George Cl'pper, Clarence Smith,
3.?, of 3537 St. Aubin; William
Henry. 32. 558 Brush street, apart
ment 28. and Ernest Dickerson, 30,
of 3130 Clinton street.
Judge Groat convicted Williams
of 'lit gal occupation and fined him
$25 or 30 days: gave Henry and
Clipper suspended sentences and
fined the others five dollars or five
days.
However, the men were held for
questioning by Detectives Dave
Marshall and Henderson Turpin,
v.ho a*e asking: "Coat, coat, whose
got the coat.”

JAKE LAMOTTA
BACK TO MEET
GEORGE KOCHAN
Mop. Nicholas Londes. boxing’s
miracle man, has pulled another
I rabbit out of the hat.
The enterprising Olympia match
, maker has signed Jake LaMot’a
and George Kochan to batll* in the
big Grand River sports emporium
1 the nignt of September 29 in what
promises to be one of the best mid
dleweight matches ever staged in
Detroit.
The weight* are 165 pounds—one
of the few times in his appearances
here that LaMotta will meet a man
as big as himself. A New Yorker,
who only recently got his medical
discharge from the Coast Guard,
Kochan rates as one of the best
scrapper* in the entire country.
Manager Tex Fullivan predict*
that George Kochan will stop Jake
LaMotta in their fight at Olympia
Friday night.
Sullivan is the first man whoever
predicted a knockout against La-
Motta, the Bronx bomber, who has
never hit the canvas in a brilliant
ring career.
"Kochan can hit hard and LaMot
ta can be hit." Sullivan reasons.
"Kochan will make Detroit fans for
get LaMotta.”
Backing up Sullivan'* prediction*
i* Kochan’* good record—a record
of 40 victories In 44 starts, many of
them via the kayo route. In hi* List J
fight, Kochan won handily from j
Howard Bennett in Baltimore. Pre- !
vious to that he handed Deacon Lo- I
gan a shellacking. Logan is the
sensation who came out of St Louis
after rolling up more than a score
of consecutive knockouts.
Kochan, who will be making his
first appearance in Detroit Friday,
was matched with I.aMotta at Mad
ison Square Garden a year ago but
the day of the match George, who
was in the service at the time, was
transferred by the Coast Guard to
anolhee section of the country. Mike
Jacobs recently tried to re-match
Ihe boys but matchmaker Nick
Lonries of Olympia beat the cele
brated New York promoter to the
punch.
Among local ring fans much in
terest has been stirred up in the
8-round semi-final between Hnw
erd Fenske and Eddie Taylor.
Fenske. new Michigan light-heavy
weight star, has not lost a fight.
Taylor is a tough trial horse who
promises to smear Howard's record.
