Last week, before he was permitted to tangle with Philadel phia Toughie Joe Rowan in Manhattan's Madison Square Garden, New York boxing commissioners studied his record care fully, reminded themselves that he had beaten such rough customers as Joey Maxim, Paddy Young and Chuck Spieser, and decided to overlook their rule against boys under 20 going ten rounds...
