i i RISKO WINS OVER Cloveland Baker Upsets Dope by Deloating Giant Negro New York, June 28 (@ — Once more that pudgy Clevelander, spoil- er of heavyweigh. favorites, Johnny Risko, has battered out of the lime- light & man generally piched to de- feat him. This time the victm was George Godfrey, successor to Harr as the current “black menace the man generally avoided by all heavyweights who advance ment in their profession. Risko awarded the victory after ten rounds of viclous, bruising mauling last night in the ball park of ‘he Brook- lyn Nationals. Although the verdict of judges met with only luke-warm ap- proval from the 25,000 fans who cheered the pretzel hender on to vie- tory, several of the sports writers about the ringside gave Risko @ margin of five rounds with four for Godfrey and one even. The Associat ed Press score sheet gave the nej flve rounds, with three for Risko and two even. The warfare for was at close range, with a premium of clouts to the ribs that rarely bothered either battler. Risko, al- most tiny beside the negre for all and scek vas the the most part absorbed God- hes and came while the best a1 back smiling for mor shots of the Cleveland boy ha dented the —an rountain oppos him.

Risko hounced his famous left ook off the negro's body and shot two overhand rights to the head. Risko stepped rather easily around the slow-moving, pon- derous giant, landing easily with his left, but there was danger always in the smashing right Godfrey used steadily as a counter. Round Two Risko bounced forwprd into a flood of left hooks to the head, that the negro, growing vicious, smashed accurately to their mark. Under the' storm of blows, as Godfrey threw everything into the attac wilted and the giant negro n wrestled him to the floor.
