GRIFFITH TO
MEET SCHAAF

CHICAGO. Sept. 23-F1H The
knockout victory march through
the American heavyweight ranks
may be heard at the Chicago
stadium tonight when he stacks
his new reputation against Gerald
Ambrose fluffy" Griffith in q 10
round battle.
Because Of the Boston heavy
weights great sweep since last spring
and Griffith's budding hopes TO
stop him. the battle had the COM
plexion Of one OF the best fight
naturals OF the year. Chicago was
50 excited about the match that
5000 were expected to pay a $4,000
gate to watch Ii.
Because OF his seven straight
knockout victories, Schaaf ruled
a slight favorite. He o~utweighed
Griffith by 10 pounds as e added
advantage although he faced a far
shiftier target than his recent
victims.
Schaaf's best weapon was his
powerful left hook, the blow that
felled Jim Maloney twice along
with Jack Gagnon, Leo Williams.
Angus Snyder, Victoria Campolo
and Roberto Roherti. Whether he
could land II effectively enough on
Griffith. however. was a debatable
question. Griffith depended on his
speed, greater ringmanship and
stamina to carry him through.
