Day For Minoso
‘I am determined to have a
crack girls Police Athletic League
track and field team ready for
the Nationals which will be held
in Dayton, O., during the month
of July,” Conrad Ford, track
consultant to the PAL and coach
of the U.S. Women's Team which
successfully competed in the
fourth annual Pan-American
Games in Sao Paulo, Brazil, said
the other night.
A consultant for the past ’3
years, the enhusiastic Ford said:
“The girls will have an incen
tive. Winners and those turning
top performances In the Nationals
will get a chance to tour Europe
and there is a possibility of them
racing in Russia. New York has
always produced top girl athletes
and I am sure that the PAL wall
have another crack team by
July.”
“We did very well In Brazil.
The track was fast, the food was
excellent and the weather was
perfect. We had the best accom
modations. We stayed in the dor
mitory of a university. I believe
they called the place Villa Olym
pia. The people were friendly and
many of them wanted to ex
change something with us. That
is, they wanted an American-
made product,” Ford said.

Archie Moore, Boxing
Trainer Speaks A Bit
Archie Moore, the ageless box- can bet that Thomas will make
Johnson, the reluctant boxing
champ, jump out the ring." Mr.
er who sees the handwriting on
the wall, is making plans for the
future. Moore, who can still
handle some of the topnotch
heavyweights, Is managing and
training young boxen on his San
Diego, Calif., ranch to a gym
which he calls the salt mines.
“I am managing and training
the next light heavyweight cham
pion of the world", Archie Moore
says.” He is going to be the next
great boxing figure", the man
who almost became the first
ligbbheavy champ to win the
heavyweight title continued.
Allen Thomas, 21, who hails
from Chicago, and fights on the
order of former triple champion,
Henry Armstrong, is the young
ster who has Moore excited.
"Thomas lost his first bout
in the pro ring, but he went on
to wift his next 17 and, incidental
ly, one of his 17 victims was
the man who defeated him. Those
who watched Sonny Liston spank
Floyd Patterson last November,
did not get a chance to see Thom
as defeat Leroy Green, a cutie
who has met leading heavyweight
contender, Doug Jones. Speaking
of Jones, my man will take him
not", said Archie.
May Overtrain
“Thomas to a well conditioned
boxer. He lives and breathes box-
tog. He is eager to do has road
work; in fact I have to watch
him closely or he will overtraTn.
I have had the two-fisted warrior
under my personal supervision.
I am very excited about Thomas
"I have had several boxers
there was Junius Washington,
Woody Winslow and Frankie Dan
iels, but they were veterans when
they came to me. They were set
to their styles and I couldn’t
really move them. Fletcher Lee,
a middleweight, had the making
of
a champion but he suffered
a broken jaw and quit.’
I know Harold Johmon, the
current llghtheevy king whom I
gave paid boxing lessons on sev
eral occasions and cooled’ him
to our last encounter, wants easy
touches lake the washed-up Henry
Hank, but Thomas will force him
to give him a title fight. You
Moore, the trainer, concluded
