 Newark, N. J.. Feb. 2O.-tUP)-- Jack Marshall of Dallas, a Wild- hooking Texas steer, was hellowina today for Buddy Baer. the same fis- tic fodder who had been promised on March IS to Valentin Campolc of Argentina, another alleged "wiid bull of the pampas.p M Marshall was believing for Bael because of his stunning upset last night at Laurel Gardens oyer tIsa highly-touted Campolo, whom Mar. shall fioored six times while pound. ing out 1op-sided 10-round deci. sion.
 Marshall went into the ring last night as substitute opponent foI the big Argentine whom ManageE Jimmy Johnston was grooming for title shot at champion Joe Louis He went in with an llnhea1ed. six- stitch gash in his left brow and spotting Campolo 28 pounds. The virtually unknown Texan was the 10-to-1- underdog in scanty wager ing.
 But long beofre the final gong had sounded, the Dallas despoiler had ruined Valentin'S United States cafn- paign and virtually blasted any hopes Campolo had of meeting big Buddy Baer at Madison Square Gar den March IS as scheduled. Campolo making his second North American appearance in the same ring where Wild Bull Firpo was unveiled nearly two decades ago, was beaten badly in brutal, bloody brawl.
 Most of the blood came from Mar shalrS brow injury. suffered origin ally at Madison Square Garden on Feb. g when the Texan-in his first eastern appearance-lost six-round preliminary decision to Bill Poland of New York.
 This brow-gash bled so profusely, after Campolo's punches had re- opened it in the first round, that Dr. Maxie Stern, the commission physi- clan, threatened to halt the bout after the third, fourth and sixth ses- sions.

 Unmindful of the blood, Marshall laid down barrage of hooks and swings (that started in left and right fields( and battered the bewildered Pampas Bull to the canvas three times in the secon dround. 7 The counts weer seven, nine and nine. Poor Valentin was sprawled back wards for three-count in the third, and for eight in the fourth session, and for six in the seventh heat. Valentin is a huge man, packing 223 pounds on 2 six-foct three-inch frame. Each time he went down, he toppled backwards midst loud and appreciative cheers from the small crowd of 2,500 which had contrib uted the paltry sum of $1,473 for the surprise spectacle. The meagerness of this gate made Campolo's defeat double tragic, because he and Buddy Baer were expected to draw about $4O,0O0 in March at the New York Garden.
 The United Press gave Campolo only the sixth round, because the Argentine = despite his desperate counter attacks and body barrageS was no match for the hard-hitting southwesterner who had entered the ring tabbed Q chimp. During the wild brawling, Marshall went to the floor only once, on slip in the fourth round.
 Marshall today has a heightened gash in his brow that will require at least 12 stitches and possibly plas- tic surgery that may keep him out of the ring for more than 8 month. Meanwhile Promoter Mike Jacobs in New York is considering what shall be done about Buddy Baer and March 15. He had chosen CampOlo for Baer after the Argentine knocked out big Jim Robinson of Philadelphia in Laurel Gardens in his United States debut three weeks ago.
