NEW YORK CITY-The greatest

able as the one Joe has placed in

Stacked against Buddy Bear the
burliest man. :. the prizering has
known save. ;. John Freeman.
white giant Of the middle 18th cen
tury, Louis sent close to $4,000 per-
sons into a frenzy of excitemen
as he duplicated his savage assault
OF Max Schmeling.
Other members of the SO called

in uncpmplimentary terms about
