Huge, heavy armed, and hard hitter; Btewart has figured in many feuds. Last year he cut down

ado Klein, now l. learn mate, in a wild melee in New York when Klein hit him over the held. One night he fought with Eddie Shore and sprague Cleghom and when he emerged from the scrap spit out a tooth with the adrnlrlns remark "Golly, that Cleghom can hit." Nels was going pzetty good himself in the tussle. '

He and Conacber clashed lest winter, and he has fought with big and small. One of his feuds with little Johnny Gagnon was a great laugh producer. This feud eildeil when they became team mates in Boston and Gagnon kept ieienlng to the big fellow as "Nellie" a rath- er laughable denouement.

A.A.U. Ruling Fails To Halt Olympic Fight

(A.P. By Guardian's Special Wife)

NEW YORK, Dec. 9—Sha2p 6X- clianges between Jeremiah T. Ma- honey of New York and his succes- sor in the presidency of the Ama- teur» Athletic Union, Avery Brund- age of Chicago, today fanned the fires of bitterness growing out of the A. A. U. decision to go ahead with plans for full United States participation in the 193a calymulcs in Germany. '

Renewing his pledge to "oon- tinue the fight" against holding the games in Nazi Germany. Mahoney elaborated on his charges that “out- side groups," voting as the allied bodies of the A. A. U. were instru- mental in defeating the movement to boycott the 0l"“"'l)lc5. Mulroney referred to the fact thesllied bod- ies were l6 to l, in favor of olym- pic participation on the final con- vention roll-call yesterday, there- by offsetting a majority vote among A.A.U. active associations for non- participation. x

(Delegates oi the allied Canadi- an bodies, the Amateur Athletic Union of Canada and the Canadian Amateur Swimming Amoctation. abstained from voting.)

Brundage countered with the charge oi "bad faith" by olympic opponents and a:serted_ delegations were "packed" with outsiders who never before had attended a na- tional convention. The new presi- dent insisied majority sentiment among A. A. U. regularsfavored participation.

Denying he had talked to a single person bebrehand in mi attempt to influence his or her vote in the convention, Mahoney challenged Brundagek statement that "huge funds," rumored to be close to $1,000,000, were available for the fight against United States partici- patlon in the dymnics.

"If Brlindnge says_ I distributed propaganda, he is a liar." said Ma- honey. “I heard about that fund too, but Brundagg is quoting noth- ing but hearsay. l think if there were a million dollars around he is just the type oi fellow who would be right after it."

HJBabeQ” Risko Wins Close Decision From‘ Battaglia

r

By Sid Feder, Associated Press Stall’ Writer (By Guardian's Special Wire)

PIBLADELPHIA, use. e-snoie ("have ‘J l-tisko, middleweight champion of the world, won the closest kind of a decision from his outstanding North American rival, rrankie lsattaglia of Winnipeg to- night, and took a round booing from l,000 fans at the arena for the un- impressive way he did it.

‘rile margin cf victory for the rugged titieholder from New York

State was so close that even the of- P

nclals disagreed. Referee Matt Adgie decided the issue by casting llis ballot for Risko, after Al Voice voted for Battaglia. and the other JUQEE, Eddie Lougrrran, named the champion, .

Despite the loss, Battaglla. by no means eliminated himself from the middleweight picture. Althougn the battle was a non-title affair, the Canadian showed enough against the crown-holder to gain himself a championship shot.

Both scaled in at 163. but Risko's huskier build and advantage in reach made it tough for Frankie to get in close enough for a finishing shot.

Even with this aisaavimtage, he

dropped Risko early in the second .

round, giving him that frame by a wide margin, despite the fact that the champion was up with a two count. The knockdown punch came when F's-ankle got his first open shot at Riskds face.

in the first. round he was unable to get into the clear to swing his solid right hand, for Rlsko tied him up completely when he wasn't be- nboring him with choppy punches to the body.

Risko scored mainly with a stiff, straight left jab to the face, which stopped Battagliirs rushes, although it apparently didn't hurt the Man- lichen.

Rlskds left eye was bleeding in the 10th when Battaglia, putting on a. desperate finishing rally, tore oil a‘ patch with which Risko had en- tered the ring. and smashed over two solid rights to bring blood.

Risko took the third and fifth by wide margins, scoring with his left Jab to the face and alternating with hard rights to the midisection. He was ahead, too, in the first, fourth and ninth rounds.

Battaglias most decisive round was the second - the knockdown frame—but he also finished the‘ seventh far and away on tOP. almostl flooring the champion for a second! time with a slashing right to the‘, head. that caused Blake's knees to buckle.

Jock McAvoy, the British cham- pion, who fights Risko in l0 days inl a non-title go, was introduced from the ring before the set-to.

The finish came after one minute and six seconds‘ oi the fourth. CHTIErTB, falling with both hands, sent Brackey down for counts oi seven and nine before connecting with the knockout punch, a right to the chin.

FINE BUXING BARB AT i.P.ll. Hill

Another successful boxing show was staged at the Labor Union Hall last evening before a capacity crowd that witnessed action every moment of every scrap. Twenty- two rounds were fought in all and although “Kid" Cheverie landed the only KO. of the evening, tag- ging Johnnie McCormick with the sleep producer in the second round of their fight, all the bouts were productive of tough, rugged bat- tling. - McCormick‘ and Chieverie was the first bout called and the fight saw both boxers mix it freely from the opening gong. Just at the end of the first round Cheverie landed a. hard right to his opponent's head that staggered McCormick who didn't apparently recover from the effects at the start of the sec- ond, Cheverie putting him down for the count with a barrage of rights and lefts after one minute and 50 seconds of the canto had elapsed. .

Gunner Orford and Battling King went four rounds to a draw in the second fight on the card. 'l.‘h.e boys displayed fine boxing skill throughout and were so even- ly matched that the Judges dis- agreed on the decision, Referee Bill Ryan voting it a draw, a decision that proved popular.

Jack Ncilson, “The Fighting Dane," versus Tom Claybome saw the latter cop the decision after being knocked off his feet shortly before the first round ended. After this however the winner steadily forced the fighting in the remain. ing four rounds and although fail- ing to score a knockdown won a unanimous verdict of the judges. This bout was another tough battle and plenty rugged in spots.

In the main event of the evening "Flash" McDonald lost a close de- cision to “Kid" Nlckerson in an eight round battle. Sticking to his usual style, McDonald came out. with a. rush only to be met with smart counter punching by his op- ponent. At other stages both boys slugged wildly much to the crowd's approval with neither giving an

.inch in the torrid going.
