NEW YORK </P) During the
hey-day of Joe Louis, Ray Ar

nevertheless quite apt nick
name of the “The Meat Wagon

many of the Brown Bomber’s
opponents, Iherd them into the I
corner the night of the fight,
using' elephant hooks if neces
sary to get them to go up the
steps into the ring, and then
wait for the -worst.
When Joe got through with
them it was Arcel’s job to drag
the inanimate hunk of human
beef back to the corner and ap
ply first aid, and this act ot
toting the helpless warriors to
a safe haven won Ray the rath
er sordid handle.
Anyway, Louis has retired
and Arcel is, or was, in the pro
motional field, so a new little
red wagon now handles .some
of the victims of Rocky Mar
ciano’s crushing fists.
Dan Ftoria already has been
in the opposite corner from
Marciano six times, and only
onpe did the man he was se
conding return under his own
power when it was all over.
“The first man I had to face
Rocky was Joe Dominic, up in
Providence,” Flori'o says. “That

there always is the chance

“'Rocky hits so hard that

an opponent is liable to have
