Satevepost Libel Suit Targets Three Figures

Philadelphia Oct. 14 UP Counsel for the Saturday Evening Post prepared to call three witnesses Thursday in a $250,000 libel suit filed by Samuel Becker of Cincinnati against the magazine. Becker contends an article in the June 7, 1952 issue libeled him by portraying him as promoter and judge of a 1946 Charles versus Oakland Billy Smith fight. Becker, clothing maker and head of the Becker Brothers Boxing Club, claims he only served as a match maker and that his brother Ben staged the bout. Witness W C Heinz, the article’s author, testified yesterday.
