LOUIS STOPS GALENTO IN 4TH

NEW GORK-Joe Louis, Worlds
heavyweight champion, successfully de-
Tended his title for the seventh time
here Wednesday night when he literally
cut his challenger, fat Tony Galento,
Of Orange, n. j., into ribbons and into
a state Of coma in the fourth round.
The game Jersey beer gulper, leap

OF 1880 patrons, made a surprise
showing for three rounds, but it was
obvious at the beginning of the fourth
stanza that the celebrated Brown
Bomber had definite plans to eliminate
the rugged and game challenger for his
crown. With the adroitness of a
butcher, the Detroit Destroyer had cut
Galento's face with a relentless STAG
cato of rapier-like lefts and rights, to
ribbons. From the initial round the
tavern keeper proved that he was game
to the core, charging at the famous
champion, rocking him with a terrific
left hook to the chin Stabbink his
opponents unprotected face with flick
erIng lefts in the second stanza, Louis
quickly started the blood seeping from
his challenger's eyebrows. The Brown
Bomber unleashed a right to the head
and terrific left-uppercut that sent
Galento sprawling to the canvas, he
landed with a heavy thud. But the
courageous barkeeper refused to stay
down. He fell into a clinch and hung
on until the bell sounded, ending the
round. The former ice peddler came
back for more, and waged a lively bat
tie in the third session. Boring in on
Louis with his head down and swinging
his heavy arms, he caught the champion
