Promoter Louis Carbonell said that he plans tonight’s program as the first in a full scale revival of the fistic sport in Key West. He plans twice monthly boxing and wrestling show in the future, if they are successful.

The Wildcats, who closed their season by beating Louisiana State for the Southeastern Conference title were given the No, 1 spot on 47 of the 70 ballots. Kentucky fin- ished with a 25-0 record, the first perfect mark since Army’s in 1944, Indiana held second place de- spite an upset loss to Notre Dame, with 420 points to Kentucky’s 574 on a basis of 10 for first, nine for second, and so forth. Following in | order were Holy Cross, Notre Dame, Duquesne, La Salle, George Washington, Western Kentucky, Penn State and Oklahoma A&M. Below the top two, however, the standings received a thorough jug- gling as the voters considered the results of the National Colle. giate Championships and the Na- tional Invitation Tournament. Holy Cross, which won the NIT by upsetting first Western Ken- tucky and then Duquesne, vaulted six places into the No. 3 posi-| tion. La Salle, the current choice to grab the NCAA championship, also climbed six places, to the No. 6 spot, although its tournament victories were hardly upsets. was Penn State, which had not gotten as | many as 10 points all Fy Lio: d righ’ into the top 10, taki: Bids. a ‘ tor Netre Dame.

Fagg’s Glen Page and Don Branson’s Red Car- pet, two very competent greyhounds, will battle it out | tonight in the feature race | at the Key West Kennel Club. Both of these dogs have fought their way up to grade one rating and are classed | as two of the top performers | at the track. Glen Page has | been in the money in his last three outings. But, there will be six oth- er dogs in the race, all of} whom will bear plenty of | watching. For example, Fred Whitehead‘s Just A Bomb, who has four victories to his credit is always a threat in any race he enters. Other grande one entries include Jack Ortner’s Westrock and Tack Out, Point Breeze Kennel’s Long- ienne, Fred Whitehead’s Just A Bomb, F. B. Stutz’ Mocambo and Joe Balik’s Fame-N-Fortune. Tonight’s program will also fea-| ture a special grade race over the 3-8 mile marathon distance, the tenth on the slate. Entries in that race include M. | W. Fage’s Lodi, F. B. Stutz’ Aloof, | Mrs. O. Z. Ferrell’s Easy Whirl, Joe Balik’s My Bitsy, Manuel Fos- ter’s Ginger Hill, Point Breeze Kennel’s Fair Monarch, Jack Ort- ner’s Stylish Blond and Claude Bet- terson’s Jo Ann Del. Tonight’s program will get un- derway at 8:15 p. m. with the first half of the daily louble. All ser- vicemen are admitted to the track free of charge. | In last night’s feature action | Fred Whitehead’s Wise Mike tri-| umphed by a three length margin | over Hush Shane to pay 5.80, 3.60 and 3.20. Hush Shane paid 10.20} and 5.60 while Speed In Review returned 4.40 for his third place effort. The Quiniela on the feature re- turned 34.80. Both the sixth and the tenth rac- es last night, produced hefty Quin- iela payoffs. The sixth paid 79.40 when Malahide and Shining Sue came in winners and the tenth re- iurned a neat 83.80 on Buzz A Bit and Tangiers. Charley Coneh’s Selections The Key West Kennel Club grand- stand, with its glass-enclosed sides, is just about the most comfortable place to spend an evening when these “northers” start howling around the keys. There’s nothing like sipping some of Chuck’s hot coffee and picking a few winners and waiching greyhounds perform. They feel like running when its cool, too. Tonight, Charley Conch figures that Tack Out in the feature race is the best bet of the evening. Watch him. Other selections: First Race: Painter Pete, Spie- dell and Silver N Gold. (7-3-1) Second Race: Dear Lad, Queen’s Mark and Razor’s Rocket. (3-5-6) Third Race: Mer-Shack, Rolla- way Margie and Migrator. (1-2-4) Fourth Race: Taran, Slick Miss and Breezemont.

Lou Smith, 1116 White Athletics Win 6 Straight To Top Spring Standing By BEN OLAN Associated Press Sports Writer Rookie Manager Eddie Joost, | who played under two of baseball’s most prilliant tacticiane, Connie Mack and Casey Stengel, had his surprising Philadelphia Athletics on top of the exhibition standings today. The Athletes, rumored to be in a bad way financially, have won six straight games without a loss. The Baltimore Orioles have the next best record, 8-2, followed by the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-2, the Brooklyn Dodger, 6-3, and the St. jLouis Cardinals, 5-3. “Our new men will have to come through if we’re to make a good showing,” is Joost’s analysis of his team’s chances in the regular season, Three uf the new men, Don Boll- weg, obtained from the New York Yankees, and rookies Tommy Giordano and Lou Limmer slammed home runs yesterday as the Athletics defeated the Boston Red Sox 10-7. Veterans Gus Zernial and Ray Murray also homered. Nevertheless, the new skippepr has his work cut out for him. His club, which finished in seventh place in 1953, 41% games behind the Yankees, played before only 362,113 fans—a drop of more than 250,000 from the previous year. The Orioles suffered their sec- ond setback when they bowed to the New York Giants 13-8. Ray | Katt, Davey Williams, Monte Irvin and Willie Mays hit homers for the Giants while Chuck Diering a former Giant, connected for Baltimore.
