Marciano Wins By Knockout Over Charles NEW YORK (INS) — Rocky Maniano drew a heavy black line through the name of Ezzard Charles today and issued a joint (invitation to the only apparent “challengers" around — Nlnq Valdes and Don Cockell — to make a try for the heavyweight title. Rocky, who seemingly must inevitably fight himself completely out of competition, disposed of the, last domestic challenger, Charles, via a knockout at 2:36 of the eighth round Friday night in a bout that Was considerably less exciting than their earlier meeting last June. It was his 47th victory in as many starts and 41st kayo. Afterward, manager A1 Weill threw down the challenge to the two foreign aspirants — Cockell and Valdes, not necessarily in that order,” he said, but “whereever the money is the best." Weill, from the looks of things Friday night, might as well have made it a simultaneous challenge. For Rocky, smartly directed and learning constantly, wrecked Charles' dream boat with a painful right under the heart in the second round. Shortly thereafter, he sent Ez to bis knees with a left hook. Charles was up quickly, and hq stayed on his feet until right-left-right combinations twice sent him reeling to the canvas in the eighth. But he was fighting a purely defense struggle. In the eighth, he backed away from a left hook and Marciano caught him wkh a right cross that dropped him for a count of four. Up again but helpless and reeling, he went down again, rested on one knee while tbe count reached nine and was struggling feebly, half erect, at ten. Strangely enough, it was the champion, not the defeated challenger, who bore the scars of this battle. An inch-long cut appeared on the tip of Rocky’s nose in the sixth round "an elbow-unintention-al," said Rocky; "a left hook," reported Charles. In the eighth Rocky began bleeding slightly above his left eye, a reopening of the cut Charles Inflicted three months ago when Marciano was hard-pressed to take a 15-round decision. Two days of rain, postponing this bout from Wednesday night, helped nobody — least of all the international Boxing Club. A crowd of only 34,330 showed up and paid au estimated $350,000. That was 14,000 customers and $200,000 less than last time. Moose State Golf Tourney Underway FORT WAYNE, Ind. (INS) — A total of 225 golfers from 23 lodges teed up today for the qualifying rounds of the annual Indiana state Moose , association tournament.

Louisville Colonels Even Playoff Series By International News Service The Louisville Colonels beat the Columbus Red Birds, 4 to 2, Friday night to even their best out of seven semi-final series at two games apiece in the American Association playoffs. Minneapolis and, Indianapolis were not scheduled. Farm Boys Look To industries For Jobs Half Os Farm Boys To Join Industries WASHINGTON (INS) — Government officials said today that half the farm boys reaching working age during this decade will have to look to industry for jobs because agriculture will be unable to support them. These officials said that one answer to the problem of declining Job opportunities on the farm* may be found in moving new Industrie* into farm areas where labor and raw materials are readily available. And assistant agriculture secretary Don Paarlberg declared that the. federal government may be able to help in the effort by providing job information through the U.. S. employment service and by Its program to decentralize industry away from the big cities as part of defense mobilization. Paarlberg estimated that onefourth of the young men reaching working age on farmers during the present decade "will be in excess of needs for the replacement of older men who die or retire.” In addition, the official pointed out that “a technological revolution is taking place on our farms, and the number of farmers needed to supply our food needs is decreasing." Paaitbeig asserted: "High rates of reproduction, plus the decreasing number of needed farms, means that approximately half our young people must Miid non-farm employment." Actually, the trend away from farm work has been underway for years. Since 1920, agriculture &s---ilmates that 18.5 million farm persons have switched into city work and the trend is expected to continue. There are now abont 5.6 million . farmp ln. thp U. S. employing about 22 million people but 3.5 million of the farms are classified as small units, consisting of low-ln-couie farmers, and residential and parttime fat mers.. Paarlberg cau.'lomed that the problem “can no* be solved quickly" but more than likely "will be solved largely between generations” due to numerous obstacle* Including the normal resistance of humans to change. The official said: "The obstacles to he ovetxrome are-so formidable as to discourage all but the most reaoiute.” ' He asserted: "However these complex problems are attacked, 1: Is clear that the promise of stlfcces* is greatest when the programs have a strong flavor of state and local participation. diversity of the problems Is so great that substantial adaptations must be made locally; no one program would fit the entire country.” If you have something us aell or room* for rent, try a Democrat Waqt Ad, It bring* results.
Nixon Speaker At St. Louis Friday Speaks At G. 0. P/s * Fund Raising Meet ST. LOUIS (INS) — Vice President Richard M. Nixon has described the Truman administration as having “a scandal a day.” Nixon told guests at a Republican fund raising dinner in St. Louis Friftty night that there is a new climate of honor and integrity in Washington under the OOP administration. - He said that President Eisenhower is the symbol of this new reform and added that everyone in his administration “is charged with maintaining it by cleaning up —- not covering up.” The vice president asserted that the Truman administration's policy was “a mess compounded of Korea, corruption, communism and controls.” Nixon declared that the choice facing the American people in the November election “is not a turning to more conservatism but a return to far more radicalism —a return to Trumanism.”
