Sept. 11-(AP)-Ray Robinson will get the next shot at the world middleweight title if the National Boxing Association has its.way. The N. B. A. convention today notified champion Jake Lamotta and challenger Laurent Dauthullle of France that the winner of their bout at Detroit's Olympia must face Robinson within six months. Both fighters were told they must ”disregard any previous con- tracts" that might call for a re- turn mafoh. As such a contract is supposed to exist. there mly be a hitch in the Robinson match. Lamotta has agreed to fight Sugar Ray at. Chicago Stadium in the second week of February if he beats the Frenchman. However. Dauthullle is bound by a "verbal agreement" to give Jake a return go if he lifts the crown. It is not known what the N. B. A. will do if Dauthuiile's representative. Max Waxman. refuses to go along with the convention's wishes. nobinson had not signed the contract but his manager, George -Gainford. assured the convention 1 he would accept the 1-5 per cent. The vote requiring the Lemona- ., Dauthullle winner to fight l'vobin- son let the N. B. A. out of a tight spot. Its executive committee had ordered Lamotta to meet Robin- non before Oct. 12 or give up the title. Now he has more time. The N. B. A. ratings of hours listed Lamotta as middleweight champion with Robinson as log- Vial challenger. Dauthullle topped ' gflist of outstanding boxers. other ratings showed Joe louis the former heavyweight champion. gg jagical contender to champion Bard Charles in the heavyweight flake.
