The little Italian was not moved by the booes and taunts of the crowd. He hardly exerted himself in the first five rounds. Griffin appeared frightened but after the fifth made a futile effort to show himself a real contender. He hit Canzoneri now and then but the champion merely smiled and urged him to come on. Tony finally cut loose and it looked like the fight might end in| a knockout. DEFENDS TITLE, BIG OLYMPIAD IS INTERESTING ALL OF EUROPE Los Angeles Games Look- ed Upon as Great Event in Sports LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. 30— European cquntries are locking for ward to the games of the tenth Olympiad to be held in Los An- geles from July 30 to August 1 | 1932, as the greatest athletic cvent in the history of sports. This was the word breught back to Los Angeles by Dr. Sven Lok- rantz, medical director of the 1932 Olympic Games, upon his return| from an extended tour of Conti-| ! nental Europe.

The two out- S fits put up a din-dong battle, which |ended in a tie so far as total pins were concerned, each scoring 2382. | The Giants won two out of three games, the final by one lone pin. | Captain Bavard, of the White! Sox, and Barragar, of the Giants,! fought a close duel. Mike had his screw ball working smoothly and |won out 582 to 582. He also ran |up the highest score of the evening, | 222, finishing up with six success- ive ctrikes. 1 | D..

Is he the ball player des- tined to furnish the popular, per- o onal appeal that has so long been dominated by Babe Ruth? » 1Is he the real gocds, in other words, or just an inspired young- ster who happened to start the world's series at top speed and keep it up? I heard these questions debated all the way from St. Louis and Philadelphia and back again, by some of baseball's oldesi and best known observers. ®the talk of the cross-roads as well |sustain so terrific a pace during | the season, but baseball men, after | looking him over are convinced | he has the stuff to go on to real stardom. | “Martin has found himself under |the glare of the most piercing | spotlight in the business,” remark- ed an old-timer. “Apparently he's the type reéquiring a big objective to bring him out. If so, he is bound to be tough to stop. “Don’t forget, either, that al- though a first year major leaguer, he is 27 years old and experienced enough to keep a level head under all the praise and banqueting that No doubt it WaS|are going to come his way.” _as Broadway while the big batile|Laughing Through Life - was on between the Cardinals and Athletics. Men who have seen every inter- league war since 1903 never saw the world's series equal of Martin. Babe Ruth has gone on a great- er long distance hitting rampage than anyone else. From Mathew- son to Earnshaw, pitchers have Jeld the spotlight . , Public Enemy. 1 For one, two and even three games, stars have shone, but none ever sustained the pace of Martin at bat or on the bases. It was no wonder they labelled him “Public Enemy No. 1”7 in Philadelphia, 1 they cheered the young- vociferously there as well as St. Louis. » “Martin’s exploits are the closest 1 have ever seen to those of Ty e GCeorgian’s best, but as the world's series| t Martin has been,” com- | am Harridge, new pres- | of the American league, dur-| a breakfast chat. bb could demoralize a team Iy on the bases, but I do 11 that he ever did any- surpass Martin's achieve- ts in a single series .especially| take.” | There was nothing especial inl Martin's first year record with the) Cards to forecast his sensational around .350 in g and stole 17 bases this year. It s good work for a newcomer, but that was about all. When the boys were discussing wCardinal youngsters for the series they talked mostly o: the chances Pepper has a good sense of hu- mor, which will take him a long way. He exchanged pleasantries with Mickey Cochrane between socks at everything the A's pitch- ers served to him. So far as the Mack sharpshooters discovered, he had no weakness and it will be interesting to see whether National league curvers can bring jany to light in 1932. There may be an interesting sal- ary discussion between Martin and the Cardinal front office before next spring. If the Pepper-pot does not have his first year stipend doubled St. Louis fans will help him squawk. MRt o o cosmrmmmd REIFINGER SIGNS DETROIT CONTRACT DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 30.—Ches- ter (Snooks) Reifinger of Topton, Pa., will sign a contract with the Detroit American League club, and will accompany the Tigers on their 1932 spring training trip to. Cali- fornia. Snooks played with the Topton Wildcats, winners of the Lehigh Valley past season, and was rated the best shoristop in the loop. Jack Rabinowits, of the same club was signed by Evansville of the Three-I League. Still another mem- ber of the Lehigh champions— Scoops Gaeff—may go up, having had several offers.

Great Athletes “To see these athletes perform is enough to convince the rankest novice that the United States will | have to look to its laurels,” he said. “Sweden has imported some of America’s best trainers in wrest- ling. The Swedish wrestlers who will compete in the 1832 games will pe among the best in the world.” Dr. Lokrantz was advised that Sweden will send a team of ap- proximately 100 athletes to the 1932 games, Finland is the country, though, which will offer the most serious challenge to the American athletes, in the opinion of Dr. Lokrantz.
