New York, Feb. 14.-(AP)-Primo Carnera was ordered arrested today on a technical charge of manslaughter as the result of Ernie Schaaf's death.

Police said the giant heavyweight, whose battle with Schaaf last Friday night ended when the latter collapsed from the brain injury which caused his death today, would be taken into custody shortly at his hotel.

Meanwhile, Schaaf's relatives were planning funeral arrangements. Friends said the funeral would probably be held Friday at the little town of Sheldonville, Mass.

The police homicide squad summoned everybody concerned in the Carnera-Schaaf fight to appear at Madison Square Garden today for an investigation of the fatal injuries to Schaaf.

SCHAAF DIES FROM BLOWS FROM CARNERA'S POUNDING

New York, Feb. 14.-(AP)-Ernie Schaaf, 24-year-old heavyweight boxer, who fell under the bruising blows of the giant Primo Carnera at Madison Square Garden Friday night while a great crowd cried "Fake," died today from the beating he took.

Death, which came at 4:10 a. m., today was due to intra-cranial hemorrhage ascribed to the 13 rounds of punishment before he fell to the canvas.

At midnight a priest was called to administer the last rites of the Catholic church. With him when he died was his mother and his manager, and friend, Johnny Buckley.
