sP SLUGGING GERMAN OVERCOMES RISKO Max Uses Strong Right to Floor Johnny Four Times in Battle. DY HERBERT W. BARKER, Assoclated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, February 2.—A new pretender to the vacant heavy- weight throne has arisen, ready to back his aspirations with the power of his two fists. Max Schmeling is his name. He comes from Germany. He hammered tough Johnny Risko into a technical knockout while 20,000 fans roared in Madison Square Garden last night. The end came after 1 min- ute and 5 seconds of fighting in the ninth round of a 10-round bout. Thus in one short but furious eve- ning, Schmeling accomplished more than did a half dozen or more of the leading heavyweights in the last yesr or s0. Johnny fought them all last year and with almost universal suc- cess. Since late in 1927 Risko has beaten Jack Delaney, Paulino Uzcudun, Jack Sharkey and George Godfrey. He lost during the same period to Tom Heeney, Jimmy Maloney and Ernie Schaaf on decision and to Roberto Roberti on a foul. And during all that time none of his rivals could put him on the floor. Scores Four Knockdowns. Schmeling accomplished that four times. The bout had hardly started when the Teuton swung his deadly right and the Cleveland rubber man ‘went down, but bounced up without a count. After taking a drubbing for the first two rounds, Johnny found him- self in the third and bogan a steady body attack that had the German bad- ly puzzled. The fourth was even, but Johnny punished the weaving, bobbing foreign target in the fifth and sixth and took them both. Early in the seventh round, however, a sizzling right cracked Risko on the chin and he went down for a count of nine. He got up, but barely lasted out the round. The eighth was the same story and bfeore long the German’s heavy right again thudded home and Johnny was down for nine once more. Only his gallant, fighting heart carried ORTS.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY Schmeling New Heavy Crown Pretender: American Le MILLER OUTPOINTS GROGAN IN DETROIT Record Throng in Olympia Arena Booes Decision After Tame Bout. BY CHARLES W. DUNKLEY. Associated Press Sports Writer. D ET! 2.—Ray ROIT, February Miller, the left-hook puncher from Chicago, seeking a title match with Sammy Mandell, world lightweight champion, today holds another victory over Tommy Grogan of Omaha, but no such knock- out triumph as that which terminated their sensational battle three weeks ago. Before lsf‘noofpect;w;s, a mrd throng for the Olympi rena, ler was -glrded the verdict over the Omaha walloper last night after 10 rounds of extremely cautious fighting. The deci- sion, made by Elmer “Slim” McClelland, | boal the referee, went to the blond Chicagoan, but the cheers of the crowd went to Grogan. ' The spectators booed the ver- dict, evidently believing that Grogan, knocked out by Miller in four rounds tnree weeks ago, was entitled to the verdict or at least a draw. ‘The match drew a gate of $60,000. It was a complete sellout with thousands wrned away. ‘The fight was tame compared to the other engagement with its half dozen ockouts. In their - first encounter Miller was upset five times in the sec- ond round only to come back angd knock Grogan out. Last night there was not a semblance of a knockdown. Each had respect for the other’s punching ability and neither took any chances, except in a couple of spots, of o) up and risking the dangers of hitting the floor. Grogan made a sensational finish in the tenth, driving Miller around the ring under a heavy attack to the head, but it was too late to overcome the lead piled up by Miller in the early rounds. Scott Monteith, matchmaker of the Olympia, hopes to close a match be- tween Mandell and Miller for a decision early in March. Miller holds victories over Jimmy McLarnin, Grogan and other lightweight contenders.
