BROOKLYN. Nov. 25—(AP)—Lea Durpcher. who insists he wants to stay in Brooklyn until the day ha dies, today signed a one-year con- tract to manage the Dodgers in 1947 at a salary representing a substantial increase over his bonus srrangernen in 19w.

Although details of his financial pact with president Branch Rickey were not divulged, it had been re- ported that Durocher was paid a basic 342.000 plus approximately $30,000 in attendance bonuses last season.

"I have no doubt that 1A0 is the highest-priced manager in base- be-ll," Rickey admitted. “A bonus arrangement was not discussed nor was a long-term contract. You may find it hard to believe, but we didn't even talk salary. I would

Plan Tourney For Vacant Boxing Titles

MONTREAL. Nov. 25 -(CP)— Taurnaments to bring together candidates for vacant Canadirin professional boxing titles are ba- ing planned by the Canadian Box- ing Federation, President ‘Prank Hogan of Montreal announced f0- day.

Mr. Hogan indicated the pro- posal hasn’! gone beyond the planning slime yet. '

Earlier this month, champions were named in four divisions but the heavyweight, light-heavyweight and featherweight classes were left vacant.

No contenders were named in the heavyweight class. Vernon Escoe of Windsor. Ont. and Arnold Hayes of Montreal, former Cal-ia- dian Army heavyweight champion. were listed es contenders for the light-heavy crown, while Snider Armstrong and Lil’ Arthur King o! Toronto, Lew Alter and Hubert Gagnier of Montreal and Johnny Bouffard of Quebec were named in the featherweight division.

Len Wadsworth of Sudbury, Ont. who has been around as lens: as any of the current crop of fight- ers was named kin: of tlw middle- weight class. Len is a fair country fighter but it is doubtful if even his most ardent admirers would rate him among the world heaters. Montreal's slugging Johnny Grcro. who built a name for him- self in New York, "time home dur- ing the summer to lift the welter- weigh title from ageing Dave Castiiloux. Greco probably is the Domlniorfs best-known boxer but even he has his ins and cuts.

i Little Danny Vlcbh, another Montrealer, hit the headlines in the United Kingdom where he ser- ved with the Canadian Army and scored victories over some bit.’ name British boxers including light- weight rhamplon Jackie Paterson. The Negro boy's oversms record earned him a shot at Castlllouxhi lightweight crown and he lifted the title by decision.

Fernando Gagnon of Quebec. the baritamwelght champ, won his title by knocking out the pro-war holder Eddie Petrin. Vancouver's Kenny Lindsay is better-known internationally than Gagnon and his backers think he should have been named champion. butg the Federation had to go hv the books and chose the man who best Petrln. They named Lindsay number one contender.

The Montreal Boxing Commis- sion bad n. hand in the Greco and Webb titles. They recognized these boxers‘ bouts with Castil- loux as championship events sl- tbough the Boxing Federation con- tends tltles are at stake only In Ill-round fights and not in lo- roundars as these were. . Mr, Hogan said today the Fed- eration h/id fallen in line with the Commission in recognizing the new champions "although it was against our ivlrhes." He added. however, that In future all title "Bill-s must be l2-roiinders or they won't receive Federation sanction.

WINNTPEG. Nov. 26 - (OP) — Morslly speaking. Winnipeg foot- ball fans are 10o per cent behind their Blue Bombers in the quest for the Canadian rugby championship against Toronto Argonauts at To- ronto Sofiurday — but they're none too eager tn flash greenbacks in favor o1 the western titleholders.

At Bombers’ final workout at the Y.M.C.A. liere last night. coach Jack West said he believed he has worked out an effective defence against Argos’ passing game. He admitted quickly however, that there was a. lot of difference be- tween designlng a pass defence and having it effectively carried out by the men on the field.

Many fans are worried about the long Bomber lay-off from actual competition since Nov. 2 - the western Canada final - and POW out that Argos will go into the fray with the keenness of recent competition. But West said the boys are keen and sharp as if they had just finished their schedule.
