KAYOED
BY SCHMELINC
IN 9Th ROUND
German Heavy Accom-
plishes More In |
Evening Than Many
Have Done in Year

NEW YORK, Feb. 2--CPl-A new
pretender TO the vacant heavyweight
throne has arisen. Max Schmeling is
his name. He comes from Germany.
He hammered tough Johnny Risko
into a technical knockout when 90
900 fans roared in Madison Square
Garden last night. The end came
after one minute and five seconds Of
fighting in the ninth round Of a
ten round bout.
In one curious evening, Schmeling
accomplished more than did a half
dozen or more OF the leading heavy
weights in the last ear or SO.
Johnny fought them all last year
ard with almost universal success
During that time none OF his rivals
could put him on the floor.
Sehmeling accomplished that four
times. The bout had hardly started
when the Teu;on swung his deadly
right and the Cleveland rubber man
went down but bounced up without
a count.
Early in the seventh round, a right
cracked Risko on the chin, and he
went down for a count of nine. The
eighth was the same story and be-
fore long the Germans heavy right
again thudded home and Johnny
was down for nine once more. Only
his gallant, fighting heart carried
the rugged rubber man out for the
ninth round. Schmeling smacked the
Clevelander down for another count
Of nine and was whaling away when
the referee h~slf-carried Johnny to
his corner.
The weights were: Risko 100;
Sehmellng lS5.
