I® Sports Parade By OSCAR FRALEY (tatted Press Sports Writer NEW YORK <m — Sandy Saddler, the world’s foremos fistic globe trotter, has an Important embroglio in the Sai Francisco Cow Palace next Wednesday and it promises t be a rough night for one Gabriel "Flash” Elorde. Gabriel is the 22 - year - old Filipino who outpoints Saddler in an overweight match in Manila last summer His reward, or, possibly, retribution, is a shot at Saddler’; featherweight crown. For Saddler is noted as a determined pugilist who win; the big ones and, before the night ends, the odds indicate that Gabriel won’t be hearing horns, or anything else Hie 22-year-old Elorde, who stands five feet, six inch a flrtA hnvor Dnt Ha tc ctrintlu “arnnH fiolH nr fes. „„ with only 11 knockouts in 38 winninp bouts. Tw< others were draws and he wets flattened once. SANDY TOO TOUGH He will discover swiftly, however, why Saddler is sucl a globe trotter. The answer is that Sandy is too tough and can’t get opponents at home. Saddler, at five feet, nine inches, is too tall and ha* too much reach for featherweight opponents who usuall) stretch to reach five feet, six inches. At 29, he still is re markably rapid and he punches like a middleweight. Proof of that is his record of 99 knockouts in 142 win ning bouts, a horizontal percentage of better than 60 pei cent. He also has lost 14 and fought two draws. This is one of the fanciest knockout records in the ring today and demonstrates clearly why opponents are so elusive. It also explains why Sandy does more traveling than the neighborhood lawn mower. That has been plenty, too. In scraping up enough willing rivals, Saddler has fought in 17 states and 13 coun tries. A REAL TRAVELER Sandy has slapped ’em down in Massachusetts. Con necticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl vania, Maryland, Louisiana, District of Columbia Michi gan, Minnesota, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Cali fornia and Washington. He also has shouldered his steamer trunk and display ed his punches prowess in England, France, Hawaii, The Philippines, Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, The Dutch West Indies, Panama, Cuba, Mexico and Canada. Against Ekictre he aims to prove once again that trav el is flattening as well as broadening. His tiny southpaw rival was bom on the island of Cebu, 250 miles south Ql .to where he migrated after Starting as an ansa *7 f «-iTrr--—---J teur at 15. In he married the daughter of Lope Carmel, the local fight promoter, and for one reason or another he soon had top billing. But Sandy, remembering that Manila loss, has a prophetic gleam in his eye. The title is his passport and there are a few spots he hasn't seen. So Elorde figures as the first punch on the new ticket t 1 ) I » Dons Finally Stopped By Mid-Term Exams .
