Castellani Not |

in Ring Style Rocky Scoffs at Talk 
That He'll ‘Turn Tiger’ 
Against Durando 
By MURRAY ROSE 
NEW YORK «p—Any attempts | 
to depict Recky Castellani as a 
“new Castellani—a slashing, at- 
tacking fighter’ leaves 
cold. 
“I'm still the old Castellani and | — 
what's wrong with that,” said the | Rocky ot     
  - ; ' Serge ay a 
  
No. 1 middleweight contendér from | ~ >a 
Cleveland, who meets hard-punch- 
ing Ernie Durando for the third 
time at Madison Square Garden 
Friday night. 
The 26-year-old Castellani out- 
pointed Durando in 1950 and was 
stopped by The Rock ia seven 
rounds in 1952. 
. td] * 
“T’'ve won 53 fights and only | 
five and I'm still a boxer,'’ said 
Castellani. ‘“‘Boxing is my style 
and if I beat Durando I'll be ready 
for a title shot against either 
(Bobo) Otson or (Kid) Gavilan. | 
Why change when I've gone this | 
far.’ 
The ballyhoo artists have been | 
trying to build up Rocky as | 
a boxer who has turned ‘tiger.’ 
Hints have been dropped, too, that 
he intends to go in and slug it 
out with the stocky Bayonne, N. J., 
bruiser, 
“That Durando is the hardest 
hitter I've ever met or seen,’ Cas- 
tellani said. ‘If anyone thinks I'm 
going to stand and slug it out with 
him they're crazy. And if anyone 
doubts my guts remember I'm an 
ex-Marine. 
* ~ * 
“I beat Durando easy the first 
etime even if he dropped me. | 
was winning in the second fight 
too when he nailed me with that 
right in the seventh. Sure, that 
punch hurt and I was wobbly but 
Referee Ray Miller shouldn't have 
stopped it. I pleaded with him not 
to. 1 was okay.”

BY GRANTLAND RICE 
LOS ANGELES, Calif—It has been a matter 
of 48 years since I saw the Chicago Cubs come 
ripping out of nowhere and dominate the National 
League for the better part of five years.

Back in 1906, with players like Johnny Kling, 
Frank Chance, Johnny Evers, Joe Tinker, Harry 
Steinfeldt, Jimmy Sheckard, Rabbit Slagle, Circus 
Solly Hofman and Wildfire Schulte, they won 116 
games, an all-time record. They flattened the 
Tigers in two successive World Series.

They had a strong pitching staff, headed by 
Miner Brown, and there was nothing to stop them. 
That was far away and long ago. The Cubs 
haven’t amounted te much since, except for 
winning an occasional pennant. ‘Today, ‘the Cubs 
and Giants, representing the two largest cities 
in the country, have little chance to finish in the

No one expects the Cubs, Giants or any team— 
not even the Yankees— to keep on winning. But

sure to be financial trouble on ahead. —

A TIME OF CONFUSION 
Prosperity is based on fair and profitable dealing. 
But today we hear of deals that are neither fair nor profit- 
able. It seems to be a timeof confusion for some. 
WATCH 
          OUT FOR: 
@ The Pack: The buyer demands another 
$100 for his trade so the seller obliges 
by raising the new car price. 
@ Balloon Notes: All the monthly pay- 
ments are low except the last one which 
may cause you serious financial stress. 
REMEMBER: 
Most business men follow sound principles 
but foolish dealing will hurt the American 
economy.. So buy where the deals make 
sense. | |
