Some of the men Savage has met in the ring are Jack Reanold, Jim Delaney, Solly Montgomery, Fred Fulton, whom he knocked out in four rounds; Otto von Porat, Norwegian champion who he knocked out in one round; Sailor Eddie Hoffman, Bob Lawson, Jack Ketchell, Wayne Munn, whom he put to sleep in one round; Farmer Lodge, and Jim Bluefield, former British titleholder opped in the third round. ... - in Fave of Rm@ System PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14.—Jim Londos, former heavyweight wrest- ling champion, recently returned from a Europeap invasion.

LOUIS, Mo., Sept. 14—When the sport writers make thelr “Most Valuable Player” award for the Na- tional League this year, the record of Joe “Ducky Wuc Medwick, twenty-five-year-old Cardinal out- fielder, will have a strong claim for attention. This right-handed slugger has, since May, maintained an average close to the .400 mark and he has led the league in nearly every other department of offensive play. He has paced the league in home runs, doubles, runs batted in, runs scored and hits, trailing only in three-baggers. Joe has also led both major leagues in batting average, doubles runs batted in and hits. Joe having the best season since break- ing into the majors with the Cards late in 1932. In the Major League All-Star game, Medwick set a new record by collecting four hits. On August 4, against Boston, he hit four doubles in one game to tie a major league mark and against Philadelphia {on August 7 and 8 he banged out {five home runs in three games Ito tie a National League record. Joe's fielding record also stands out Only one error has been charged against him, and he has turned in a number of brilliant catches.
