Here the 18-vear-old Tighter chats with Claire Duncan, left, and Mary Ann Magri. Right now he's going to summer school By ED TUNSTALL AP Newsfeatqfes^ NEW ORLEANS ? Speedy Ralph Dupas. the New Orleans schoolboy who rose to the front in the lightweight division with his flashing fists, is running out of op ponents in his climb toward the 135-pound title. The 18-year-old high school jun ior, ranked third in his division by The Ring magairine, hold,-, decisions over such contenders as Johnny Gonsalves and Annand Savoie. And he gave lightweight champion Paddy DeMarco a rough evening before DeMarco won Hie title early this year. Dupas, a fighter since he was 14, presents a perlexing problem to lightweight title aspirants, lie stands as a stenning stone to a title shot with DeMarco, but few con tenders want anything to do with Dupas who has accounted for 47 victories in 50 pro fights He has been in fyur draws and lost ?nly five fishts. Promoter Allen Larombe of New Orleans savs both Cisco An drade. unheattn Californian. and Paoli Rossi of Italy have balked at meeting Duoas. Dunas faces another problem since he is prohibited by law from meeting Negro opponents in Lou isiana. This rules out matches with , Orlando Zuleuta, Arthur Persley and Bud Smith, other top-flight 1 contenders, and narrows the field. Dupas offers a puzzling style be cause of his great speed. He darts in and. out, relying essentially on his speedy footwork and rapier like lefts. He has been censured by some sports writers for what they said was "failure to mix it enough." True, he is no knockout artist. Yet he has scored nine kayos. He | was knocked out in his eighth pro i fight bv Kid Centella. a setback he later reversed. He was only 14 at the time. Whitey r-sneauit. Dupas' veteran manager, isn't talking title fiehts yet. He is content to bring his schoolboy star along slowly But to get a fisht for his boy he will i match him with anybody, includ j ine champion DcMarco.

Still on the trail of Enka in the Western North Carolina Industrial League, but unable to overtake them. Hazelwood will have the op portunity to narrow the gap to a half game here Saturday against the Ra.vonites on the WTHS diamond. The contest starts at 3 p.m. Behind only a half game a little more than a week ago. Hazelwood suffered from being idle last Wed nesday as Enka won, and then slipped another half game in los ing to Martel last Saturday after noon. Hazelwood was again idle yes terday. Other industrial loop tilts were drowned out. Coach Bill Milner today an nounced the signing of a new pitcher, Jerry Alexander. Duke University sophomore, graduate of Canton High, and a member of the strong 1950 Haywood County American Legion junior team. The difficult task of halting the powerful Rayonites Saturday will fall either to Alexander or his fellow Cantonian, Charlie Carpen ter, Milner said. Other starters will be: Dee Stephenson, shortstop; Babe Yount, left field; Elmer Dudley, third base; Floyd Teas, first base; Lonnie Bishop, second base; Bob Pitts, right field; Bobby Joe Mease, catcher, and Milner, cen ter field.

In discussing the record of postal primes which resulted in 5.977 ar- j rests in the year 195:t. Mr. Summci f.eld said those most frequent were burglaries of post office, holdups of mail custodians, and theft of' mail. Other frequently occurring crim-! es against the postal laws, accord- ' lug to Mr. Summerfield. included the wilful destruction of rural mail boxes, the mailing of fraudulent.! lottery, and obscene matter and the raising and forgery of money ord ers and Postal Savings certificates. One hundred and twelve post masters and postal workers, a min ute fraction of the more than one i half million postal employee*, j handling a gross money turnover' of over $21 billion dollars in 1953, , were arrested during the year for embezzlement of funds. The investigation of postal crimes uses the time of about 200 of the 900 men in the Inspection Service who serve under the Bu reau of the Chief Inspector in Washington. D. C. One hundred i additional inspectors are now be ing added to meet the ever-increas ing volume of work and to afford some relief to the constantly long hours of continuous duty served by the present staff. Records of the inspectors to date j show 99 per cent of all those ar rested have been convicted. Mr. Summerfield noted. The Inspection Service, he point- ! ed out, goes back to the days of our first Postmaster General in colonial times. Benjamin Franklin; is the oldest of the Federal gov ernment law enforcement arms; and is charged with protecting the mail and investigating all postal crimes. While the Inspection Service is constantly on the trail of mail swindlers and others violating pos tal law, Mr. Summerfield cautioned that the continuing tremendous losses through mail frauds?aggre gating $10 millions yearly-?calls for more vigilance by the public in [its own self-interest. An outstanding example of mail fraud in 1953 victimized 900 peo ple who were swindled out of $1. 000,000 on the promise of an ope rator they would get tax-delinquent land. He had no such land Another example, Mr. Summer field said, was that a lawyer who promised investors a return of 20 per.cent. He colleeted $500,000 in six months from 100 victims and absconded. A matrimonial swindler, posing as a rich Texan, married well-to-do v.omen through lonely hearts cluhs. living with them until he got their money, and left. His ill-gotten gains totalled $50,000. Vicious medical frauds claimed many victims with promises of home cures for cancer, tuberculosis and the like. One operator took in $1,000 a day for 100 days on worthless pills. Among nine arrested in 1953 for violation of the laws prohibiting the mailing of poison and explos ives was a socially prominent lady who mailed boxes of arsenic pois oned candy to her Sunnay school class, making 21 persons violently 1 ill After his offer of marriage was | rejected, a jilted suitor miled a home-made bomb to a young lady in Boston. The bomb was built so lhat a .22 caliber pistol would discharge when the package was opened, setting ofT a mixture of j gunpowder and shells. The gun; went off. sending a bullet into the young lady's arm, but she escaped death when the lethal mixture fail- i ed to explode. The home mail box thief, often : preying on the aged and depend- I ents receiving regular government or private checks through the mail, j is the most frequent violator of ? postal law and probably the most calloused. Postal inspectors caught 3.851 persons for stealing mail in 1953. including 2.544 for pilfering home mail boxes. Even when the victim recovers the stolen funds there is often delay and hardship involved in such thefts. Mr. Summerfield noted. A locked bok discourages such thefts, he added. Some other statistics on arrests include: burglary, 441; holdups. 19; damage to mail receptacles. 409; theft of government property, 52; possession of stolen goods. 186; fraud and lottery, 227; mailing of obscene, scurrilous or defamatory material. 166; impersonating postal personnel, 7; extortion, 19, Mr. Summerfield emphasized the great care taken to protect the mails. Of 52 billion pieces handled in 1953, only 500,000 were lost or stolen. This was one piece out of every 104.000 a loss percentage of .00096. ?>ome oiner unusuai casts uiciuu |ed that of a dangerous armed crimi nal who went on a four-day crime | spree with five burglaries, two ! auto thefts and attempted murder, lie made his mistake when he ^ob ! bed the Farmersville, Texas, post tifTicc. Postal inspectors took him ! at' gunpoint. A woman mail box thief averag ed $100 daily for five months steal , inp checks from apartment house j boxes before inspectors caught her. Another mailbox thief stole elec ti ic bills from mail boxes. He con fronted the housewives and told | liiem their light bills were over due and threatened to turn off the I electricity unless they paid up. He collected $1500 before he was caught. Some other points revealed in the summary: Many mail thieves are driven to their crimes by the crav j ing of dope. Mail losses at handl I ing points outside of postal juris [ diction?In mail boxes of private companies, for example?are an in creasingly serious problem.
