BY BILL KING.

Associated Press Sports writer.
~ OSTON. July 19.-Wres-
x Ting was still without an
undiSputed heavyweight
- champion today because,
judging by appearances and
performances, Ed George and
Jimmy Londos, the last of the
long list of claimants, were too
evenly matched.
This pair Of grapplers, standard
bearers Of rival factions now at peace
after a long and bitter promotional
warfare. entered the ring at Fenway
Park last night to complete the job
of putting all the mat championship
pieces together.
They started graphing shortly be-
fore IL o'clock and four hours later.
when they were groggy and almost
helpless, the match ended a draw.
Fall Brings Finish.
a FTER knocking heads and top
n ping through the ropes, the
exhausted pair finally managed
to crawl back together. Londos
staggered over to George and applied
q wristlock. George threw him with
q feeble backfan and then fell face
downward.
The shock of the fall robbed them
Of their last bit Of stamina and both
were unconscious at the end.
This amazing exhibition drew a
crowd of $4,000 with gate receipts
estimated at 100000.
The 29-year-old George weighed
219 and had an l8-pound advantage
over the st. Louis Greek, who admits
SO years.
The match was on a best-two- out
of-three falls basis and each scored
fall early in the gruelling struggle.
They worked hours II minutes and
10 seconds for the deciding fall be-
fore the bout was declared a draw
by the referee
First-aid treatment was required
before either could leave the ring,
but neither suffered any serious in
jury that would prevent a return
match, which will probably be staged
in New York at an early date.

his wrestling match with the

he's gone way back or he's over

I've seen George 90 times without

OF years Of worry and waiting"
Marshall Aggressive.
VXyHILE Londos today was recu-
" perating from the effects Of
last nights gruelling match
and getting his second wind after one
of the most strenuous bouts Of his
championship career. Marshall Just as

was bent upon Stressing most, as the
result of a decision Of Promoter Joe

requested.

played something of a waiting game"
Everett confesses. AS IL Is, I'll be
in there to rush Londos of his feet
and take the play away from him all
the way.

mt mention OF his old teachers name

"TSHERE'S reason why boxing Is
A lost art Fighters Of today
are not students They don t
practice. To be great fighter must
work at his boxing with the same
pains and precision as the fellow who
learns the trade Of Matchmaking.
Present-day fighters are either out
dancing or buying friend a bottle
OF gin. They don't realize their mis-
take until about the third round.
II still have hopes Of managing a
champion some day-if can get one
that's built right and has plenty OF
ambition and Is not too smart TO pay
attention to what he is told,s.asnw .,
Here again Mike philosopi1zes:
The more good fighter knows
the more he is willing TO learn, and
the less a poor fighter knows the
more satisfied he is that he knows
everything.
81 made Max Baer champion in
four nights, and / only got weekly
salary for my trouble. / am like the
fellow who was paid So a day to find
a gold mine and then found one.
However poSt-mortems don't help
the patient
some day I may be Max Baer's
trainer again. Max would want 1t
that way. I'm the only man in the
world outside of Baer who knows his
secret weakness and how he can be
beaten"
Cantwell took over Baer'S training
only a short time before his fight
with Ernie Schaaf in Chicago on
August 81, 1892. Max had been
training in Hollywood when Can't
well took charge. There was only Il
days for Max to get into condition
but he was good enough to win.
"Baer won with right hand and
his marvellous ability to take punish
ment,' Cantwell states. Max didn't
know his left was to punch with. He
used it as a guard. carrying it high,
at times almost above his head After
the Schaaf fight 1 taught him how TO
use his left 1t was effective against
Tuffy Grifith in his next fight and
he won by knockout in seven rounds.
