THE DETROIT FREE PRESS THURSDAY, MARCH 11. 1943 Wright Knocks Out Joe Pirrone in Third To Wliom It Vlav Concern The Obstacle's ONE OF boxinpr's bis gambles v. ill materialize before the collective eyes of the Detroit Friday night when Jacob LaMotta, the Bronx toughie, fights Absenteeism Being Sol ved, Perkins Says By the I'nited Press WASHINGTON, March 10 Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins asserted today that United States industry and labor need no legislation to soH'e the problem absenteeism in war plants. "They have already begun to solve in the practical, realistic way it requires by correcting the conditions that cause it." she told the House Naval Affairs Committee now studying the Johnson bill to curb absenteeism. Illness and accidents cause 90 per cent of unauthorized absences from war jobs, she said.

Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox and other naval officials have testified that drinking, particularly "week-end i i a i was chiefly Jirnmy Reeves, Cleveland Negro. Mr. LaMotta isn't in on this chance taking, of course. So far in Detroit he and his manager, Frank Capriano, have done their gambling in free style hot air. For Reeves this light means everything and he has had to surrender not only financial reward but at least some of his chances of winning in order to get the match.

Reeves holds two decisions over LaMotta and normally this record would work to his advantage when a promoter was seeking a third bout. Actually, it has been a hindrance to Jimmy and because of the two victories he is coming in here to fight (willingly, of course) on terms dictated by Capriano and LaMotta.

Boxing Still Attracts Top Attendances Mosit Top-Notchers Gone to War, but Fans Flock to See Bouts Everywhere BY SID FF.DER Associated Press orrespondent NEW YORK, March 10 It is said of this fistic season that you can put your two maiden aunts into any ring anywhere and come close to selling out. This is not to hint that the class of cauliflowering ears has deteriorated to something resembling a blistering game of bean bag or drop the handkerchief. But in spile of the fact that the four major fistic championships are locked up for the duration the jingle-jangle-jingle of the box office cash registers in virtually every fight town in the country these days is as loud as the radio in the apartment next door at 2 a.

m. No one can quite figure it out, except that Mike Jacobs and the better promoters just beam and tell you: "Well, there's probably a lot of fresh dough around." GARDEN DRAWING 'EM Madison Square Garden, although entertaining only three minor championship brawls, is on the way to what looks like its first million-dollar indoor season starting last September. Three shows have played to gates of more than $70,000 apiece, and another of the same is in prospect for the Jimmy Bivins-Tami Mau-riello party Friday night. Detroit has drawn $131,710 for its last three brawls. Two heavyweight get-togethers in Chicasro lured fates of 824,000 and S28.000.

Cleveland has hit S40.000 once and come within shouting distance a number of other times. In California Henry Armstrong has pulled the whole business up by the bootstraps, drawing $40,000 for his outing with Fritzie Zivic last fall and a couple of more boufs that attracted about 820,000. Baltimore and Pittsburgh report they're up more than 15 per cent. Philadelphia had a $20,000 gate with Bob Montgomery and Lulu Constantino and a half dozen more from $14,000 to $17,000. Even Providence hit the jackpot this winter with a $12,983 gross its biggest in 10 years for one bout.

NO TITLES, EITHER The Garden has had 17 beak-busting parties which played to 249,832 customers and a gross of $689,437 for a $40,555 average. Tops for the campaign were the $71,868 lured the night Chalky Wright lost half the featherweight championship to Willie Pep and the $71,346 and $17,291 Beau Jack nnt rS hnnl hv that than the smallest amount La Motta has received in Detroit, this sum being the $2,685 Jake got for beating Jimmy Edgar on Xevv Year's Day. As important as the money angle is the weight situation. LaMotta, who talked of fighting middlewcights, light -heavy-weights and yea, even a few heavyweights, wouldn't go for the match unless Reeves made 1G2 pounds, which is" three pounds under his normal fighting weight. After hearing of the bickering over weight by the LaMotta camp, we hope to never see any of the heavyweights Jake would be willing to fight.

Or it may be that he will fight any heavy who doesn't go better than 162 pounds. Aid Protest Is Explained by Standley U.S. Envoy to Russia Savs His Statement Referred to Private War Contributions New Vork Times Service WASHINGTO March 10 Indications today were that the Government was disposed to let the furore subside over the Moscow conference of Admiral William H. Standley. American ambassador" to the Soviet Union, after an explanation had been received from the Ambassador.

His report was said to have made his alleged complaint concerning the lack of knowledge by the Russian people of America war aid merely an incidental observation at his press conference which was designed to express his personal disappointment over what he considered the lack of knowledge of the Russian people concerning the extent of American contributions to Russia through the American Red Cross and Russia relief funds. He realized that Moscow had publicized the extent of American aid but felt it had been done in such a way that the people did not know whether it came under Lend-Lease or was a gift through the Ked Cross or relief funds. He did not intend to imply that the Russian people were unaware of America's contribution to the Soviet war effort. (Moscow dispatches said that Standley had conferred with Foreign Commissar Vlacheslav Molo-tov today at the Kremlin, but there was no indication whether the American envoy had sought to explain his complaint. Standley's report did not contain the exact text of his remarks.

It was dispatched before the Ambassador received the inquiry from Sumner Welles, acting secretary of state, concerning what he had said. There was no official disclosure or comment on the explanation today but, unless there are further developments which would change the attitude here, the disposition appeared to be to consider the incident closed. Welles canceled his press conference with the explanation that he had no further comment to make for the time being. President Roosevelt maintained silence on the matter. TUESDAY'S BOXING BI N.

iUUii. Brings Sudden End to as 7,000 Look on; Joe Maxim Also Kayo Victim I'nited Press Correspondent CLEVELAND, March 10 Chalky Wright, former featherweight champion, experienced little trouble in polishing off upstart Joey Pirrone, of Cleveland, with a third round knockout before nearly 7,000 fans at the Arena here tonight. The dopesters had it right when they said one of the fighters i vvouldn come out for the fourth round. The veteran Los Angeles fighter ricked un the cue after warding off the aggressive Pir- rone ana in me intra rouna ne rage of lefts and rights that stopped Joey cold. He then let loose with a knockout punch, a vicious left hook to the face that put Pirrone on the canvas.

Pirrone, who had tried hard for two rounds as Wright coasted, failed to get up in time and was counted out at 2:42 minetes of the round. Wright tipped the scales at 131, Pirrone at 131. The bout was scheduled for 10 rounds. An earlier scheduled ten-round bout ended in 51 seconds of the Well, Maybe He'll Be Army Capain Special to the Free Press ANN ARBOR. March 10 Dick Kopel, the Detroit wrestler who won the 121-pound championship in the recent Big Ten tournament, has been elected captain of the 1944 University of Michigan team, but he will not be around to take care of this job.

Almost as he was elected by his teammates, Kopel, who is a member of the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps, was notified that he is to report at Fort Custer March 16. first round with Joey Maxim, of Cleveland, taking the first knockout of his professional career from Pittsburgh's Curtiss Sheppard. As the two fighters sparred Sheppard landed a surprise heavy punch that laid Maxim across the top of the ropes. In the excitement Sheppard followed through with four terrific rights that com pletely finished the Clevelander oeiore ine rereree could come to the rescup. Sheppard weighed 187, Maxim 180'i.

Lyndon Johnson, Texas Democrat, to require quarterly reports to local draft boards on absentees provides no solution. It would leave to board discretion whether to induct chronic absentee workers of draft age. TERMED POOR SOLUTION "If workers are drafted, this will not expedite production, for the vacant places on the produc- tion line will have to be filled by finding and probably training new workers," she said.

The real answer, she added, is in increased management-labor co-operation. Correction of working conditions, with the guidance of the Labor Department, will go farthest toward eliminating the evil, she said. CITES FOOD FACTOR "In many cases making proper food available has had a great effect," she said. "I've seen strong, rugged men leave their machines for a glass of milk or in the middle of the afternoon, a good, big helping of hot stew provides the food elements for a good job." Although acknowledging that neither the Labor Department nor the War Manpower Commission had made an overall study of absenteeism, Miss Perkins offered these recommendations to management for control of the problem: (1) Keep accurate and uniform records; (2) study and analyze the causes of absenteeism; (3) follow through with correction of the causes; (4) check up with deliberate, repetitive "shirkers" and with the aid of labor impose fines on them. Dutch Clark Quits as Rams' Coach PUEBLO, March 10 (AP) Earl (Dutch) Clark, coach of the Cleveland Rams of the Nation Professional Football League, said tonight that he would not seek renewal of his contract, which expired Jan.

He thinks that he will make the weight and for his sake we hope that he does even though it may weaken him to a certain extent. In view of the happenings leading up to this bout, it is reasonable to assume that LaMotta won't go through with the engagement if Reeves is as much as an ounce over the 162 mark.

Jake's First Foe His Size TIIF is something of a novelty in that LaMotta will be fighting a seasoned opponent of his own size in a Detroit ring for the first time. The dictated conditions of the bout which Reeves has been forced to accept in order to get his opportunity in Detroit are against him, of course. However, experienced boxing men ho saw Reeves win from LaMotta on two occasions in Cleveland recall that the second engagement was one-sided and concede Jimmy a good chance in spite of his opponent's admitted improx ement. This can very easily be Jake's farewell appearance here.

And what's even funnier, most of the big "houses" in the Eighth Avenue sports soup bowl have been attracted by fights that in normal times wouldn't have drawn half what they did. Rams' Caylon Smith Quits Pro Football CLEVELAND, March 10 (UP) Gaylon Smith, former southwestern star who was the tenth i leading ball carrier on the National Professional Football League last fall, today announced his retirement.
