LOUIS, Mo. (UP)-'Arthur a 28 year-old lightweight from Red Cross, today promised to make his future opponents candidates for disaster relief.

Both Persley and the Montreal Canada, battler, Who was a decided favorite, weighed 138 pounds but that was the limit of their similarity.

Persley took out after Savoie as soon as the bell rang for the first round, crowded him into his own corner and staggered the Canadian with a furious flurry oi rights and lefts to the head. That set the pattern of a bruising setto, with Savoie on the defensive except for rare intervals. Savoie was cut under the eye, alongside left ear, and suffered a badly battered nose as Persley carried the fight the way. The margin of Persley's superiority was indicated by the scores of the referee, Bob Ingham, anc the judges, AI Graff and Gene FarVell- Ingham scored it 55-45 Graff 57-43 and Farrell 56-44.

YORK (UP) -'Handlers of Tommy (Hurricane) boxing's sensational new slugging laid plans today for a drive they hope will carry him to the heavyweight championship by September. That's mighty big dreaming for a lad who only three months ago was fighting in preliminary bouts, but Monday night's spectacular'six round technical knockout of Dan Bucceroni gave Jackson's pilots the' right to dream just as big as they want. Matchmaker Teddy Brenner of Brooklyn's Eastern Parkway Arena, site of Monday night's televised and broadcast slugging bee, disclosed these tentative plans for 22-year old whirlwind from Rockaway Beach, N.Y.: A fight on May. 3 at the Park way, possibly against Roland La Starza; another in June against 2uban hevyweight contender Nino Valdes; and then an outdoor title claslj in September against cham- )ion Rocky Marciano.

Jnknown To Contender As for Jackson, who is a little dazed by his meteoric rise from an unknown to contender for the world's richest sports prize, he said merely, "Whatever they tell me to do, I'll do." And Tommy convinced plenty pf and television viewers hat he can do almost anything ic's asked by the' way in which ic polished off Bucceroni, No. 3 ranking heavyweight contender who went into the 'ring favored at 2-1. Jackson, now ranked No. 1 in the heavyweight class, simply ignored Bucceroni's famed right land blasts, swarmed all over him rom start to finish, and -never stopped belting Dan -with larruping efts, and occasional rights until Referee Al Berl called a halt 1:58 of the sixth round. There were no knockdowns.

The surprise defeat wiped out Bucceroni's hopes for a fall bout with Marciano.
