Between you and me a boxing round of rumor and plans
The piece weaves gossip about Archie Moore training for Bobo Olson, a Rocky Marciano meeting unlikely, and Moore’s vanity project. It notes Moore’s $27,000 self-funded push for a shot at the heavyweight crown, rumored managerial squabbles, and Moore’s claim that he has not met Marciano. It also touches on Moore’s ties to Lucky Thompson, Moore’s wish list Mercedes, and other sports anecdotes.

CHICAGO June 9 LP General Manager Paul Richards announced rookie infielders George Smith and first baseman Chuck Matthews from Michigan State College have come to terms with the Baltimore Orioles.
