European Boxers To Vie for Crown PARIS, Jan. 27 (UP)—Cliff Curis of England and Gilbert Lavointe of France will meet in Paris March 1 for the European welterweight boxing championship. The European Boxing union announced Tuesday. The 147-pound title has been vacant since France's Charley Humez gave it up to battle among the middleweights. He lost only nine times, all by decisions, without ever being knocked down. LeBaron First on Redskin's Roster WASHINGTON (UP)—Eddie Le Baron, the smallest man on Washington Redskin squad, Tuesday became the first to sign for the 1953 pro football season. While he was at it, he signed for two seasons. General Manager Dick McCann announced the signing, but did not say what LeBaron's salary would be. LeBaron, a 23-year-old ex-Marine who took over the quarterbacking chores held so long by Sammy Baugh, played his first season as a pro last year. Although he weighs but 165, he managed to stand out with his passing. Last night LeBaron was named the most courageous athlete of 1952 by Philadelphia sports writers for his comeback after receiving leg and shoulder wounds in Korea. LeBaron stopped off here on his way home to his farm near Lodi, Calif. Cub Scouts Hold Monthly Meeting Cub Scouts of Thomas Jefferson school held their monthly meeting last night. The theme was "Travel." Skits were given by the Cubs ably assisted by their hostess of the month, Mrs. Shirley Darnley.

Citation's first offspring was fully foaled earlier this month at A. B. Hancock's Clairborne farm. Ferris Fain, American Monarch to White Sox Biggest Off-Season Deal Involves Eddie Robinson By JERRY LISKA CHICAGO (P)—The Philadelphia Athletics and Chicago White Sox Tuesday sprang the off-season's biggest deal—a first baseman exchange of Ferris Fain, two-year American League batting champion of the A's, for power-hitting Eddie Robinson of the Sox. The swap involved a five-player transaction, also sending Bob Wilson, the A's rookie second sacker, to the White Sox for outfielder Ed McGhee and infielder Joe de Maestri. The other players were strictly window dressing in the Fain-Robinson deal that may have loaded the pennant gun for either the White Sox or Athletics, who finished third and fourth respectively two games apart, in the 1952 American loop race. Fain, 30, the 1951 league batting champion with a .344 average last year won the crown with .327. The 32-year-old Robinson, much less adept at field, batted .296, but his 104 RBI's tied for second in the league. Cleveland's Al Rosen with 105 finished first, one better than Robinson and Larry Doby also of Cleveland. Paradoxical The deal seemed paradoxical in face of recent claims by Manager Paul Richards and General ManVictory Taken Away from 'Moonbeam' ACAPULCO, Mexico (P)—Protests against the apparent win of the yacht Moonbeam in the San Diego Acapulco night race during a steeplechase at Kempton Park.

The les want to since the figure is off its rocker. Thomas, who hit 35 home runs in the Pirate-owned New Orl club in the class AA South Association, says that despite love for the game he'll quit the Pirates fork over more Bucs paid the 22-year-old of Pittsburgh $5000 last. This is the maximum for runs on option from the parclub. Kiner Flustered her, a bit flustered by the pay says he deserves more than pirates want to dish out.

Branch Rickey, told me I was being asked to the maximum slash because club lost money last year." Lang Rickey, who doubles as president and front office exor, talked to Kine, last week nothing came of the contender-Kiner said he and the club too far apart. Thomas, visibly irked by the terms, said the Pirates offer $6000 and he stalked out Rickey, jr.'s office. Got Mad really got mad and I told him did not sign. We threw a lot odds at each other."

Fain, 30, the 1951 league batting champion with a .344 average last year won the crown with .327. The 32-year-old Robinson, much less adept affield, batted .296, but his 104 RBI's tied for second in the league. Cleveland's Al Rosen with 105 finished first, one better than Robinson and Larry Doby also of Cleveland. Paradoxical The deal seemed paradoxical in face of recent claims by Manager Paul Richards and General Manager Frank Lane of the Sox that they were shopping for a long ball hitter. Fain was far down the RBI column last season with 59. In the expansive ranges of Comiskey-Park, the Sox now will have outfielders Sam Mele and Minnie Minoso, with 69 and 61 RBI's respectively, as their power hitters. However, there was immediately speculation that the Sox may exploit Fain as a powerful trade lure before the 1953 season ever starts. The New York Yankees last year were hot after Fain and the Sox are rumored to be willing to offer the batting champion for first sacker Joe Collins and outfielder Hank Bauer. Average Wilson, who has a Sox name-sake, catcher Bob Wilson, played with Indianapolis of the American Association last season, batting .269 in 126 games. The pair relinquished by the Sox, McGhee and De Maestri, had previous flings with the White Sox without success. McGhee last season batted .289 for Memphis of the Southern Association. De Maestri was with the Sox in 1950, traded to St. Louis Browns in 1951 and re-acquired last October. He batted .226 for the Browns. Moore Knocks Out Hall in Fourth TOLEDO, O., Jan. 27 (AP)—Archie Moore, entering the ring fo. the first time since winning the light-heavyweight title, knocked out Toxie Hall of Chicago Tuesday night in the fourth round. Referee Johnny Webber didn't even bother to count after Hall smacked the canvas after two minutes and 40 seconds of the fourth Hall, at heavyweight, who fought at 188 pounds, had been down once before that round for the eighth count mandatory in Toledo. Moore felled him for keeps with a left hook to the side of the face. The champ, who weighed in at 179, broke Hall's nose with his first punch of the bout, a long left hook. He stayed with left Victory Taken Away from 'Moonbeam'. ACAPULCO, Mexico GP—Protests against the apparent win of the yacht Moonbeam in the San Diego-Acapulco yacht race were allowed Tuesday giving the final victory to the Mexican yacht Conejo. The change put the Moonbeam three hours behind the Conejo on corrected time. The Jassado continued in third place. The Acapulco Yacht Racing Club met most of the day and talked to the San Diego Yacht Club by phone. The California club said it had given the Moonbeam permission to use its engine to return to the starting line to make repairs after beginning the race But it said the Moonbeam had not asked at that time that it be given an allowance for the time required for repairs. Therefore the Moonbeam was not disqualified for using its engine, but it was not allowed the nearly 10 hours used in repairs. The committee had originally deplaced the Moonbeam, the second yacht to arrive, the winner on handicap Head Injury Kills Amateur Fighter SAN ANTONIO, Tex (AP)—An amateur boxer from Brooks Air Force Base here died Tuesday of a head injury received in a bout Saturday night. He was A-2C James W Nelson, 20, of Denver, Colo. Joe Ortiz of Corpus Christi Naval Air Station won over Nelson on a technical knockout in a middleweight bout at Brooks AFB. Nelson was taken to Lackland Air Force Base for treatment but never regained consciousness. Death was attributed to a brain blood clot. Nelson's bout with Ortiz was stopped by the referee in the first round. Despite protests by spectators and Nelson himself, Brooks officials said The injured fighter collapsed soon after leaving the ring. It was the first death in San Antonio's boxing history. Cage Scores By The Associated Press San Antonio State 35 Mather Air Force Base 11 Santa Clara 10 Undefeated Seton Hall Still Top Basketball Team in United States NEW YORK, Jan. 27 UP—Seton Hall, carrying a 19-game victory streak, sat down on the No. 1 seat in the college basketball standings for the second straight week Tuesday but found it hard to relax. The nation's only undefeated major quintet, the flashy Pirates from South Orange, N.J., have a light workout with Albright Wednesday night and then travel to Philadelphia to meet a Villanova club which promises to be troublesome. If coach Honey Russell's young operatives are to be deterred from a perfect campaign, a rarity in basketball, Villanova is regarded as one of the clubs capable of doing the job. The Philadelphiaians bowed to Duquesne Monday night, 88-78, for an 11-5 record but Seton Hall fears they may have been looking ahead. Meanwhile, Seton Hall is riding high and hands with one of the firmest holds on top position in the Associated Press poll anybody has enjoyed all year. In the weekly balloting of sports writers and broadcasters, the Pirates received 44 of 85 first place votes and piled up 679 points for a wide edge over Indiana, the Big Ten kingpin, still in the runner-up spot. The Hoosiers, who bowled over Purdue, 88-73, last week, had 595 points on the basis of ten for a first place vote, nine for second and so on. From there on the AP standings don't look as familiar as usual with the University of Washington in third place, followed by La Salle, No. 4; Kansas State, No. 5; Illinois, No. 6; Fordham, No. 7; Oklahoma A and M, No. 8; Western Kentucky, No. 9, and Depaul, No. 10. La Salle, leader for the first two weeks of the poll, climbed back into fourth place over Kansas State, another one time pace setter. Ousted from the first 10 of a week ago were North Carolina State, beaten by North Carolina, 70-69, and shoved from eighth to 12th, the Kansas, whipped to 12th, and Kansas whipped, 72-68 by Colorado, and demoted from ninth to 14th. Their leases were taken in the high order by western Kentucky, up from 12th, and Depaul, which rose out of nowhere after administering a 58-47 licking to Oklahoma A and M. The reward was a long time coming for Depaul, which has handed La Salle its only two setbacks.
