Wears D0wnTChal1ei1ger In 11 Rounds Of Savage Fighting Before 40,000

By JACK HAND g

NEW YORK, (AP)--Rocky Mar- ciano, crude and awkward in the early rounds. wore down Roland Lastarza with raw animal power In stop the game. blood-spattered challenger from the Bronx on It technical knockout in 1:31 of the llth round Thursday night. It was Marclano's second defence of his world heavyweight championship.

Sliced around both eves and bleeding from a cut on the bridge of his nose, the well-battered La- Starza took a tremendous beating in the last five rounds before ref- eree Ruby Goldsteiii stopped the slaughter.

A stunning right-left-right bar- raze to the head earlier in the llth round knocked Last-arza through the ropes and onto the ring apron. The determined La- Starza gamesly pulled himself up at about the five-count to climh hack throug the ropes as the ref- creels count hit nine.

Groggy and obviously hurt after putting up a savage battle, La- Starza reeled into a neutral cor- her under another furious barrage

from the Brockton. Mass, block- buster. Goldsteln came to the res- cue.

N0 Cake Walk

But this was no cake walk for the 29-year-old champ who won his title from Jersey Joe Walcott just a year and ii day ago. while he was able to stave off the Rock's heavy guns Roland gave a splen- did account of himself.

At times, I..aStarz.a made the champ look like an amateur, flail- ing and floundering In his wild misses. Even in the 10th round. Marciano slipped down in Roland'.- own corner. It was no knockdown. merely a miss and slip.

Among the ringside spectators was Gen. Douglas MacArthur who was sitting with Gen. John Kil- patrlck, president of Madison Square Garden,

Randy Turpin, the British mid- dleweight who meets Bobo Olson for the world title, Oct. 21. also watched from the press section with his manager. George Middle- ton, and Jack Solomons, the Brit-

Clarence Babinoau proved his superiority over,a large field of drivers at the stock car racing at the Charlottetown Driving park last night, by winning the feature

the evening.

It is the opinion of Ihv officials that last night's race will be the final one of this scnson. Stock car racing which was introduced to the sport fans of Prince Edward Island in July this year has proved to be a frost popular form of en- tertnlnment, cvldenced by the large crowds which continued to attend throughout the summer.- Perhaps not the most spectacular perform- or in connection with these races but certainly one who played a large part in their success was the announcer Mr. Eric Jessum. His ability to anticipate the moves of the drivers before they ocqirred and the inimitable style in which he described occurrences, both while the race was on, and between starts, did much to make the events imich more thrilling to the fans. '

I The track last evening showed signs of the continual wet weather recently and its condition at the first turn made driving very diffi- cult. In spite of this, the drivers gave everything they had and came up with some sparkling per- formances. In the second semi- final lCl'O were 12 cars starting but before the finish there were only eight survivors. Roy Bell and Lester Matthews provided the thrills in this race by son:.ersault- ing a couple of times. Fenner Stewart came from behind the whole field with his "flying saucer" to force Blythe Murray to the wire but the off. time winner had

In the feature race in which 19 cars started on 9. 20 lsp trail Or- ville MacDonald who was leading the field by a lap made the mix. take of trying to pass Casey Jone; on a bad turn. In so doing his car went out of control causing a re. start, thus placing him at the rear of the parade. Many of the Cars in this race were forced out be- fore its completion but Clarence Babineaur drove his Hudson jet to the front and held his lead to the finish. ,
