"Old Man Got Hit on Chin —And Tony Zale Lost Title’
(Continued From Page One) was the winner and a good winner, he was. I still don’t know whether he's & real game guy or not, It seemed to me he was going (I mean quitting) in both the second and third rounds. But to my surprise there he was still on his feet when the bell sounded. And to his surprise, too, I'm quite sure. It wasn't until the sixth round, the knockout round, that Graziano became spectacularly brave, And I'm giving the fellow a break when I address the word brave to him. What really happened is that he hit an pld man on the chin with a right hand and that was that—just as it figured to be. Just the same this was the same fellow who had knocked him out before. Here he was out here against the .same man with the same title at stake and he was mak-
Fight Was a Great Break It was a fine fight. Really it was 8 great fight, I read in the newspapérs out here that the fight brought five million dollars worth of business to this city. Our (New York's) district attorney and our top boxing man-— meaning Eddie Eagen--have put New York out of the fight trade. Why? Is that why they ‘are in office? They think they can become big guys by knocking a curbstone bum like Graziano. Neither Eagan nor
Warn: of Deadline On GI Insurance
WASHINGTON, July i x. PJ). =The veterans administration reminded veterans today that Aug. 1 is the deadline for. filing. applications for two types of national service life insurance benefits. Both benefits deal with refund of premiums paid by veterans who were totally disabled for six or more consecutive months.
Under normal procedure, if a veteran establishes his disability, he receives. a waiver: of payments and is refunded all premiums paid during the period of disability. VA will refund payments for as far back as Aug. 1, 1941, if applications are filed by Aug. 1 this year. The other extended deadline enables beneficiaries of deceased national life policy holders to apply for refund of waived premiums: must apply before Aug. 1, 1947, After Aug. 1 neither benefit will be paid except in special cases, VA said,
ing you ? swallow your own words with his own angry fists. There never was a more authentic knockout than the one Graziano planted on Zale. It will go in the books as a technical knockout. It was technical only to the extent that it wasn't murder,
Zale's age and the first time he'd got hit was the whole story. One good punch and the old man comes loose all over, That's what happened. There were two or three times whent he had Graziano going, but he didn’t have enough stuff to finish him. The first time Graziano hit him with a real gnod right hand, which was‘in the sixth round, the old man started to wobble. He knew then it was only a matter of moments. And who immediately became very brave? Your friend

for Chicago Hogan has proved even one little thing against this fighter, or against fights. In the meantime what has happened? Well, among other things the Zale-Graziano return fight has happened. It has happened out here under very admirable and competent circumstances. It was a great break for Chicago, and since I believe Chicago is the finest city in North America that’s dll right with me. ~ ‘Chicago will continue to have great fights in my book.
‘A Bit Wobbly, Ludlow Sworn In
(Continued From Page One) son —a widowed daughter — and Dean Elmer Kayser of George Washington university also were The latter is a son-in-law. The Ludlows have three daughters, one son, four granddaughters and two grandsons, all residents of the Washington area. Having suffered a severe. attack of flu in May, 1946, Mr. Ludlow returned here only last week from a rest home in Pennsylvania. His doctors have ordered him not to return to his congressional office. But he did want to take the oath
and Mr. Madden arranged for passage of the resolution. “Except for the loss of quite a number of pounds and a pair of rather wobbly legs, I am getting along fine,” Mr. Ludlow laughed, much in his old-time manner.
Hint Competing Transit System
2 Groups Ask PSC for Details
(Continued From Page One)
court brief supporting its defiance
of the PSC order to eliminate the transfer charge, The supreme + court already has issued a temporary writ restraining superior court Judge John Niblack from enforcing an injunction against the transfer charge. The brief contended Judge Niblack overstepped his jurisdiction and that the supreme court should make its writ permanent pending outcome of the company's circuit court action to overthrow the PSC rate order, The PSC had ordered both elimination of the transfer charge and establishment of a 5-cent transit rate for school children. Puts Loss at $423,466 For the first six months of this year, Mr. Reid said, the utility operated at a loss of $423,446 before taking out bond interest. The loss, however, was based on the old 6% - cent fare. Actually the utility was selling its ride tokens at 85 cents, but the difference was being impounded during the period under a court order. Even had all its revenue been available, Mr. Reid said, the company would have had a net operating return of only $229,428 for the period, a rate of 5.24 per cent on the $8,750,000 property valuation allowed by the PSC.: The PSC rate order was designed to produce a return of 6.9 per. cent. But if the rate set by the commission order had been in effect during the first six months of this|be year, Mr. Reid said, the company would have earned only $148,395, before bond interest charges, or a rate of 3.39 per cent on the valuation approved by the commission. Bond interest for the period was $127,000. Operating expenses mounted more than half a million dollars sp far this year over the corresponding period a year ago, Mr. Reid contended. Meanwhile, he said, the number of riders slumped 2,392,448 from the number who rode trolleys and busses the first half of 1946 and plunged to 3,205,464 rode in the first half of 1945. Mr. Reid said new whge demands by utility employees threatened to add another $1,110,000 in operating costs. The company has committed itself to an outlay of $1,250,000 for 25 new trackless trolleys and 50 diesel busses. The supreme court will- hear oral

Foes Squelched, Dewey Friends Say
SALT LAKE CFryY, July 17 (U, P).~Governor Thomas E. Hewey was confident today that a campaign agajnst his presidential am- | bitions had been broken.
His tour of western states WAS | threatened by the illness of his wife, however.
Mr. Dewey is on a 4500-mile jaunt] to sound out western G. QO. P.| leaders on his chance for winning | the party's nomination next;year. He stopped over here to attend the 39th annual governors’ conference which ended yesterday.
Mrs. Dewey was described asf “very uncomfortable” as result of | a poison oak infection. Physicians, had not decided whether she would! able to continue the trip.
It was believed, however, that Mr. Dewey's commitments in Idaho, Wyoming, Montana and Michigan | had to be kept. Therefore, he may | continue- on without her. Friends of the New York gov ernor believe he emerged from the three-day governors’ conference out in front in the “wide-open” race for the G. O. P. nomination. 1 A drive to stop his campaign was | started by “supporters of favorite son” candidates but did him lit-| tle damage; Mr. Dewey's friends said.
