FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 12 BOXING: Joey Giambra vs. Italo Scortichini, middleweights. 10 rounds, 10 P.M. (4) (8). JIMMY POWERS RATES THE BOXERS: Giambra is rated 6th. Fights: 40. Won: 37. Lost: 3. K.O.'s: 20. Scortichini is unrated. Fights: 41. Won: 31. Lost: 7. Drew: 3. K.O.'s: 9. Giambra, new Buffalo idol, when first seen on the Friday night presentation stopped Jimmy Herring. In this short contest he was extended by Herring's aggressive style. Against the Italian invader, Giambra will have a strong, weaving, lighter foe, who recently held Carmen Basilio even in 10 rounds. His left jabs must work overtime to keep off the aggressive Italo, but you can be sure Giambra will be the winner at the end, WRESTLING: Laurel Gardens, 9 P.M. (13).

Panter, the local boy in this contest, will be all out to show his Utah neighbors that he is a far better fighter than his last showing against Joey Giardello. I pick Panter.

A victory here could pave the way for an early meeting with the ex-champion of the class, Joey Maxim. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 16 BASKETBALL: Pro: NY Knickerbockers vs. Boston Celtics, 9 P.M. (11).

Clarence is a hard-punching powerhouse who should prove too powerful for the awk¬ ward Slade. Henry at one time was being picked for a top spot. I pick Henry, pos¬ sibly by a knockout. HOCKEY: N.Y.
