Light Heavyweight Title Fight Seen For Las Vegas ATLANTIC CITY, (N. -Only "a few minar financial items" stand in the way of a Light-heavyweight title fight between champion Joey Maxim and veteran challenger Archie Moore at Las Vegas, Nov. 26, according to former heavyweight champion king Jack Dempsey.

said he and Eddie Eagan, former chairman of the New York state boxing commission, wculd promote the bout with the International Boyirjg Club as a minor partner. A Maxim-Moore match was one of the stipulations laid down by the National Boxing Association just two days ago in Montreal when it lifted a suspension placed on Maxim and his manager, Jack Kearns. And, at the same time, the NBA made the managers of both fighters promise that the winner would meet Randy Turpin of England, Maxim had been placed under suspension by the NBA for failure to go through with a title fight against Turpin. The light- heavy champ still is under a ban in New York state, which is not a member of the NBA, for the same reason. Dempsey said that Eagan, millionaire attorney, had offered to put up 550,000 to stage the bout and Wilbur Clark of the esert Inn in Las Vegas had fered another 50,000.

"The managers of Maxim and core have agreed that Las is the proper site for the ght, and they will sign as soon a few minor financial items ironed out," said Dempsey. The 'oout, Thanksgiving would be a 15-rounder. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE Teams-- W. L. pet.
