Off.) 0 — 0 (Editor's note Guests columnist < will take over today's sport parade while Oscar Fraley fs vacationing.) New York, Aug. 23 il'Pt This I* a year for championship fights. So far at Madison Square Garden we’ve had Marty Servo knocking out Freddie Cochrane for the welterweight title. Willie Pep knocking out Sal Bartolo to clean up the confusion in the featherweight division, and Bob Montgomery knocking nut Allie Stolz to retain hi* lightweight title. Then, at the Yankee stadium. Joe laxtis knocked out Billy Conn in a heavyweight title match. 1 don't know what's going to happen in tb<- three championship matches I've got booked for the stadium in September but you can bet there'll be a lot of excitement The prospect of three title bouts next month interests me. And they certainly won’t keep me hopping around any more than the schedule of matches I ran back In 1939 when I had Tony GalentoLou Nova fight in Philaileiphlu; a Joe Iguiis-Bob Pastor title bout in Pittsburgh, and a Fred Apostoli • f'eferlno Garia middleweight championship in New York—all within the space ot fwo weeks. The September carnival of championships (I've got to get this in or toy publicity department may get sore) starts off with a welterweight title match on the fth, beween Servo and Ray Robison. These two battled furiously through two 10-round scraps a few year ago and If their title match Is anything like the 20 rounds they have already fought, the fans and the officials, too—are going to have a hard time deciding on the winner. On Wednesday, Sept. 19, comes the 23rd title defense for Joe |muis, this time agHinst Tumi Maurlello. Frankly, |'m a little •urprise myself by the intense interest in the contest. But maybe It Isn't so surprising when you stop to consider that nobody has ever seen Maqrlelln in a fight that wasn't exciting |fis punch, his gameness. and his busy style have earned him 16 main events at the Garden, which Is more times than any heavyweight has boxed there since they built the Garden 20 years ago. Finally, on Sept. 27, comes the postponed middleweight title con test between Tony Zale and Rocky Graziano. This one hail really "caught on" when we had to de fer It because Zale came down with pneumonia. But he's back in tralnin K now and he'll be ready for Rock-A-Bye Rocky on the new date. ■ o — I
