CLEVELAND (#—Del Flanagan, the St. Paul Shadow, planned to visit a hospital today in an effort to find out what happened to his right arm and caused his fight with Lester Felton to be halted at the end of three rounds last night. The premature ending to the na- tionally televised bout made every- body unhappy. Flanagan weighed | 147 to 151 for the Detroit battler. ‘The fight attracted only 1,608 fans, who paid a gross of $4,176. “Gee, it was terrible,” said Flanagan.” I would have rather been knocked out than had that happen. All I know is that I threw a right in the first’round and seemed to throw my arm out ‘bove the elbow.” Dr. M. H. Lambright said Flan- ‘agan told him at the end of the third round he couldn’t go on. The boxer suffered either a nerve or a muscle injury and the X-rays are merely to definitely find the trouble, he added. The physician accordingly or- dered the fight halted and the vic- tory was recorded as a fourth- ound TKO. The rules specify that when a bout ends between ‘rounds, the next round shall be designated as the end. Most upset were the fans, who booed almost continually «and called on’ Referee Jackie Davis ‘either to stop the proceedings or order the action stepped up. “But what. can you do about ‘those things?” lamented Dr. Lam- bright, who examined Flanagan after the first round and ordered | the fight continued. ““You can’t see ‘anything. All you can do is let ‘the fight go on for a while and ‘gee what the fighter can do.” The scrap had no more than; started® before Flanagan winced grabbed his right forearm in pain. From then on the action was most tame, with Flanagan using his left almost entirely and Felton fearing his opponent was playing possum. Casual HAGGAR SLACKS correct for any occasion!

The loss marked the} jagainst a single win. Pompano gained the win on! |the basis of a big fourth period scoring drive which netted them 20 points after the Conchs had fought their hearts out to) hold the home club to a 20: -20 | tie at the half. | The Conchs jumped into the ball | game feet first in the opening per- iod when they dumped in 16 points | and the whistle to end that period | found them in a four point lead. However, led by forward Wayne Welch, Pompano overcame the de- ficit and they began to click in the drive which gave them the win. Big Jim Solomon fed the scor- ing for the Key West club when he dumped in 10 points for the evening. Julio Henriquez was close be- hind with seven counters. Guard Scooter Buck and center | George Mashburn also were big | factors for the beanpickers in the Key West defeat. Buck led the scoring for the Pompano five with 15 points. Last year, he paced the home team with | 18 point avera Logun and Henriquez played the full contest for Key West and the | defensive work of Bok er and | Glynn Archer shone for the Conchs.

The decision was made at a “special meeting that |was not a special meeting” last night in the City Hall. Owner Paul Rust and General | Manager Joe Ryan of the Flamin- gos met last night with four mem- bers of the commission in an effort to arrive at an agreement on cer- tain, concessions which they will need in order to operate profitably in the city. Their needs approximate closely ing the past season. The Beach management asked that they be given the use of the ball park on a ten year it agreement, that they be to negotiate for concessions and parking facilities and that there be no city tax on admis- sions to the ball park among other things. They also asked that the city construct box seats at the Wickers Field stadium to bring the capa- city to 3000 persons. Commissioners John Carbonell, Jack Delaney and Jouis M. J. Eis- jner said that they would vote “yes” on the deal but Mayor C. |B. Harvey proved to be a. hard bargainer when he insisted that Citizen Staff Photo OWNER PAUL RUST (center), of the Miami Beach Flamingos is shown last night as he con- fers with the city commission in an effort to work out a deal to bring that baseball club to Key West for the 1953 Florida International Baseball League campaign.

The NCAA Executive Commit- tee urged the end of the two- platoon system and asked the con- vention to recommend that the the city should share in the re-|rules Committee knock down the ceipts of the concessions at the field to the tune of five per cent of the gross sales. The baseball operators said that they could. not |go along with that and the mayor stood firm. He also asked a night- ly guarantee of $50 for the city for use of the ball park. When Carbonell attempted to in- troduce a motion to push the mea- sure through, he was told that last informal meeting and no motion could be |introduced with out the unanimous consent of all present. HoweVer, the deal is almost ¢er- tain to be pushed through at the next regular meeting of the com- mission on January 19th. Today Ryan and Rust will meet with Armando Acevelop present concessionaire at the ball park in Ps effort to come to an aggrement |on the purchase of the concessions.

Robert Hall, Yale University ath- letic “director who heads the TV Committee, said he would have that group’s report ready for a round-table discussion shortly after noon today. The contents remained a closely guarded secret but Hall, in an in- formal press conference yesterday, let enough cats out of the bag to leave no doubt that the lengthy document would carry these two main points: 1, Television, even of the re- stricted 1952 variety, drastically cuts football attendance. 2. A limited program similar to that of 1952, perhaps even sharp-- er, should be adopted for 1953. One game a week was televised “A great many of our members are anxious to get rid of television altogether,” Hall said. “Our com- of Dimes infantile paralysis fund.
