We'llf ightRondon anywhere in the United States anytime he wants to," said Foster's manager, Loui Viscusi. "We have some TV coverage set up if it can be held in February. January would be okay, too.

Foster wants a fight in January. He likes to fight once a month." "We feel Foster is the real champ," he said. "Titles are won and lost in the ring and not at a table." Foster lost his World Boxing Association title for refusing to defend it. He had polished off the late Dick Tiger to earn the championship May 24, 1968.

Bet you hear all the gossip in town." That's what my husband says. Well, I'll admit there is talk. When people get together whether in a beauty parlor, a barber shop or, in the old days, around the cracker barrel in the general store-tongues start Hying. It is human nature to talk, to criticize, to complain.

But isn't it refreshing to hear something good about someone? Sometimes it takes a lot more s'rength to say something good than something bad! Sometimes It takes more strength to stand up and be counted as a churchgoer than it does to sit on the sidelines, espousing neither faith nor cause. Which side are you on? If you're not sure, why not cast your vote for the Church? Try it next Sunday. 152 152 155 iss 155 165 159 'M 76- 76- nn 74 79-77 78 nn 77- '8 74 81 7 83 8V79 Sunday Aarfc ii, 20-25 Monday 20, 77-22 Tuesday Romans 3, 19-26 Wednesday Romans 5, 141 Thursday Galatians Friday Ephesians Saturday Matthew 7, 15-27 friends.
