NIW YORK. Jen. M- AP)- Rcoky Gruaanmthe middleweight fighter, with the "rock-a-bye" punch, has admitted he was of- fered. $100,000 to throw his sched- uled Dec. 2'1 fight with Ruben (Cowboy) Shank of Denver. dis- trict attorney Prank E. Hogan said today.

‘Illle Madison Square Garden bout was called of! Dec. 24 after Graatano reported to the State Athletic Commission that he had suffered a back injury in train- lng.

Hogan declared bluntly the in- vestigation into gambling activit- ir-s in the New York sports world “is more general than is indicat- ed in this fight. I don't think Grazlano has told us everything. I think he even might be able to tell us some names."

Other developments on the gambling front today included: l. Alvin J. Paris, the dapper

The tightens grand jury ap- pearance came after he was ques- tioned 12 hours Saturday night and early Sunday in district at- iorney Frank Hogan's office.

Hogan said Grazlano told him the $100,000 bribe offer was made at Stlllmans gymnasium by per- sons whose names he did 110! know but whom he could ident- ify.

Graziano told this story of the bribe offer:

The person making the 3100.000 offer said he would see the ﬁght- er in a few days. In two or three days, this person and two others saw Grazlano again and asked Quint if he was going “through with the proposition."

Graziano told them he was thinking about fl; and said "I'll see you”. Later. he "made up his mind not to go through with the deal because he was confident he could beat Shank."

The ﬁghter realized. however that in defeating the Denver boxer he “would be double-cross- ing the persons who would have bet on his opponent on the strength of the two meetings."

As a result. Rocky decided “to pull out of the match and he admits he used a sore back as an excuse."

HALIFAX, Jan. 2‘l—(CP)—I-lull- fax Crcscents bettercd their cellar position in the Maritime Senior Hockey League by two points to- night when they turned on Trul-o Bearuats and iarrupcd them 9-2. Truro’: loss left them two points behind the second-place Saint John Beaver: who bowed 4-5 to Moncton Hawks.

It was sweet revenge for C:es- cents. who were bounced 12-4 by Truro in their lest get-together. and almost a replica of the 16-6 pasting Halifax handed Beat-eats hers two weeks ago.

Cresccnts, o, team which hab- itually fades as the game lengthens, showed a surprising revcrsnl of form tonight by getting stronger with each period. They snagged one goal in the opening period. tacked on three more in the sec- ond and saggcd the Truro mesh with another five in the last lap. Both Beureats goals were scored in the last period.

Little Rock Sullivan was the big goal-catcher for Halifax. He shov-

Cari Ripley, who just recently joined Cresccnts. moved into the centre spot. on the first line and Jake Wade, the former pivotter. shifted over to the wing. Sullivan was dropped from the Wade-Stanhnpe-Larabie combination to centre Larabie and Redmond.
