There is no questicn, however, that it has| struck bcom days at a time when many professional as well as ama- | teur sports are feeling the pinch of the times at the box-offices. | | Do the crowds literally jam their way into the arenas to see the pon- dercus fellows grapple and leap, grean and rear, merely because it's all an entertaining show, a hippo- drome with some hocus-pocus on the side? | Not if you would believe the ear-! | nest assertions of dark-haired, massively-built Jim Londos, the i | Greco-American who holds the | world's heavyweight catch-as cnu:h-‘ can championship or, at least, a! | majority interest in it. Jim proudly displays the gem- studded and gold plated belts em- blematic of recognition by the Na<i tional Boxing association and the| | New York State Athletic commis- | sion. He goes to the operas And‘ j swims in the best company. | He regards his profession as an, art, to be cultivated and lifted toa| higher plane. He is painfully dis-! turbed by any suggestion he would | stoop to talking things over with any opponent on the mat, before- hand, or that his manager would resort to such an artifice. ED GEORGE? HA! 1 | I tell every man I wrestle if he| | can throw me, well and good. For[ a time, yes, I may, as you :ay." ‘carry him’ if he is not so good. But what good would it do me to| take any chances? I work hard to i reach the top of my profession. I| | am recognized as champion. Ed! Gecrge? I am willing to wrestle! him any time. I can beat hi | but he will not meet me.” ‘ PHONES 83 OR 85 George, the Michigan collegian, is a rival title claimant as a re- sult of having thrown Gus Sonnen- berg, the Dartmouth alumnus, who won championship honors from Strangler Lewis. Gecorge is recognized in some scattered parts, including Califor- nia. He has declared his eagerness to wrestle Londos, to settle all dis- putes, but the wrestling business is such that it is extremely difficult if not impossible to get the rival cliques together for business pur- poses. Meanwhile old John Fan, so long as he gets the entertainment and variety he likes, seems undisturbed by any other factors that may en- ter into the grappling game. “PA” HOPEFUL Despite the financial misfortun: attending the heavyweight fi festivals at Miami this winter, Stribling is hopeful that the artistic ! success of his Walker-Risko show will enable him, With better times, to make a comeback in the Florida resort next winter. | The elder Stribling’s idea to es- tablish the business on a firmer footing another season is to puton three or four shows at monthly in- tervals, starting in December, point- | heavyweight | ing for a “big shot” match as the climax. This, he feels, would attract more interest and put the “build-up” on a more system- atic basis.
