The three Bostonians have been prominent in tioned by Gibson in a long list of boxing men, whom Gibson said, were controlled by Carbo. Without the cooperation of Carbo, presently serving time in a New York prison for un dercover fight activities, pro moters were f. able to stage boxing matches.

The Los Angeles star scored 21 points in the second period, piercing the Celtic defense repeatedly with driving lay-ups.

Sam says, "I knew Carbo because anybody doing good in boxing had to know him. But I hated him and he hated me. Gibson knows it, too." Buckley's answer was, "I know Carbo.

For that matter, how could any boxing writer do a sound job of covering the business yet avoid meeting Mister Gray? If acquaintanceship is guilt, then a subpoena (or plaster) should arrive at the Globe any minute for a reporter named Siegel. He met Carbo and was seen several places with Carbo.
