Basilio is scheduled to again run the risk of beinr buns on 1 ihe end of a Robinson hook at the Chicago Stadium, March 25, The theory is that the sudden change in climate didn't figure to do Basilio any good, and that the International Boxing Club wants him to finish training in the North. Scuttlebut also had Basilio worn to a frazzle from flying more than 20,000 miles attending 30 dinners since his spectacular victory over Robinson at Yankee Stadium last Sept. 23. SO WE HUSTLED to the upstairs Fifth Street Gymnasium at the corner of Washington Avenue in the old section of the beach expecting to find Basilio bordering on a physical wreck. Anyone remotely acquainted with the one-time Canastota onion picker should have known better.

This old shoe wears well, Basilio is remindful of a lot of good fighters in the gym. There are afternoons when you wouldn't think he could lick a midget. He will win no prizes as bag pounder. He's hardly a Fred Astaire skipping rope. But this day Basilio, in shirt and old green tights, was sharp and got the most out of three rounds with Lee Owens, a rather capable 165-pounder remindful of Robinson.

The pattern on the upcoming rematch unfolded as the Italian weaved under leads and belted the mobile sparring partner's body. BASILIO IS QUICK TO POINT out that Miami Beach and all that goes with it doesn't take his mind off training. He is quick to note that he did most of his work here when he stopped Johnny fighting for a rebound with the Upsala College quintet.

This comes from, of course, the round of salary guessing games journalism majors indulge in at this time of year. Each time a big player signs a contract, you know, the reporters flock to the club offices and ask how much he got. "WE DONT REVEAL that," the general manager says. "About a reporter will ask. Another will say, "Would -you say $22,500 is reasonably close?" and the general manager will smile cutely and the game gets deeper.

The other day it got so bad the writers were trying to guess the whole New York Yankee payroll, with George Weiss being Mr. Interlocutor. The feeling always has been that baseball, financially, is corner c'andy store stuff compared to Wall Street and it would be interesting to see if all this fine training in how to guess salaries could be put to use on something important. Like learning how much Smith makes. The notion seemed to shock a Mr.

Applegate, who is a Merrill Lynch spokesman. "We certainly do not welcome questions as to the Income of Mr. Smith," he said "Nor will we welcome them at any time." Well, we told him, we'll go with you there but, just in passing, what do you make a week? REBUFFED, WE REVERTED back to our own field. Howard Cossell, a television announcer, came on the tavern wall early in the evening with news that some star, we missed the name, was only offered $35,000, according to estimates, and he is asking for more. Howard didn't say how much more.

So we called him at the studio right after he got off the air and after exchanging pleasantries got right down to business. "What," we asked him, "is your take-home pay each week?" He said something about a ten dollar bill we had borrowed so we hung up.
