Time's a-wasting, and the upset victory of Olle Tandberg over Joe Baksi in Stockholm last Sunddy had Scl Strauss, Acting Director of the club in the absence of the indisposed ' Mike Jacobs, riffling through his desk calendar for dates and his list of well-riffled and shopworn ring eligibes for potentia foes. Until the once-taciturn but latey voluble Louis unburdens his views, here are some of the potential moves ‘on the Strauss checkerboard. all ! subject to change without scant notice: 1. Baksi and Tandberg can heave at it again here in Madison Square Garden August 22 to see whether their Sunday swing session was an optical illusion or whether the Swed- ish slammer, despite his mediocre record, can consider Baksi his own personal smorgasbord. 2. Louis can fight the winner of the July 25 scrap between Ezzard Charles, the Cincinnati light-heavy- 'weight, and Elmer “Violent” Ray of Minneapclis, provided one or the other triumphs “decisively.” 3.Tandberg, under contract to 20th Century, can fight Britain's Bruce Woodcock for London Promoter Jack Sclomons. Baksi stopped Wood- cock in seven rounds in April. If Tandberg can do it better and quicker perhaps he'll get the Louis 5id — or merely qualify for perma- nent possession of Woodcock. - - - Top Hitters.
