Marciano’s heavyweight cham
pionship as he entertained the
press in an impromptu inter
view.
His stage was the austere
looker room of the YMCA, with
its rows of steel lockers and'
stark wooden benches. Off in a'
corner a sparrinlg partner grunt
ed and snorted as he shadow
boxed before a mirror.
Archie 'had donned his trunks
and sweatshirt and laced his
shin length Shoes, and was skill
fully wrapping and taping his
hands, meanwhile carrying on
a running patter of conversa
tion. Sometimes there was the
question of who was bidding
whom.
“What do you weigh now,
Archie?”
“Offhand, 189.”
“Think you’ll ever have to
make 175 again?”
A long pause. Finally Archie
gave a Casey Stengel wink and
flashed his ready grin. j
“How does the added weight;
affect you?”
“I’m speedier at this weight I
I know it. I can feel it. I know j
I have a tank full of gas and
can step on it. At 175 you only;
have part of a tankful.”
“How are you going to fight ,
Marciano — punch or box?”
“I know I’m going to fight
him. that’s for sure.”
There was a patter of what
sounded like rain from the gym
nasi urn overhead. Moore cocked
his ears.
“'What’s that? Applause?” It
seemed he couldn’t understand
why there would be applause.
He hadn’t, appeared yet.
“What significance do you
attach to the result of the Don
Cockell-Nino Valdez fight?” I
“T justified my thinking. Val
dez can punch.”
“Are you as good a ■ puncher
as Marciano?”
“I’m not what you would
call a puncher; I’m what you
would call a sharp hitter.”
“What’s the difference?” «
“You’d have to go into bal- '
listics to describe that.”
“I know a little aibout ballis
tics. Wouild you say your hit
tinig involves speed, accuracy
and trajectory?”
“That’s right, with the tar

He flexed his huge arms and
tipped back his head in a de

who had been standing by sug

stairs for the two round spar

porters if they had got their
story. Moore gave that engag

“Don’t >aisik if they' got the
