Rain, Sain Top Whiz Kids, 3 to 1 But Dodgers Boh to Giants, 6 to 4 Br the Pre. The Philadelphia Phillies managed to remain 6V2 games ahead of the second-place Brooklyn Dodgers in the National League race as both clubs were defeated. The third-place Boston Braves scored a 3-1 decision over the Phillies in a five-inning rain-shortened game, while the New York Giants trimmed the Dodgers, 6 to 4. The Phillies had a run in on a homer by Rookie Jack Mayo, and the tving run on base via Gran around ever since and now he's the "dean" of the champion's training staff.

How does he feel now about that original estimate of the young LaMotta? "Well, I don't know how LaMotta would rate with the middleweights of all time," he "because I never saw a lot of the oldtimers in action. But I know this. LaMotta is the best I have ever seen." THAT OF COURSE, includes M. Dauthuille, the French challenger who will attempt to lift Jake's crown, come Wednesday night. UHDERCOATIflG i $15oo Writtes Guarantee All Cars AUTO UNDERCOATING CO.

It just seems that long.

DeNapoli, a Detroiter, will be "making" his 38th straight fight with LaMotta when Jake defends his title against Laurent Dauthuille at Olympia Arena Wednesday night. Last year, when LaMotta picked up the 160-pound crown from Marcel Cerdan at Briggs Stadium, DeNapoli was assisting Al Silvani in the LaMotta corner. Soon after, he was elected head man and he has been the top towel waver in LaMotta's matches with Dick Wagner, Chuck Hunter, Joe Taylor and Tiberio Mitri. LaMOTTA and DeNapoli Joined forces in January, 1943 although neither Jake nor Al could have known how permanent the connection was to become. LaMotta was almost an unknown seven years ago when he arrived to meet Jimmy Edgar.

DeNapoli was running a gymnasium here and says he took an immediate liking to the Bronx youngster. "He was a quiet kid," DeNapoli said. "He didn't say two words in the gym. There waa something about him so determined that I spotted him as a kid who would go places."
