Sport: 201 vs. 183
Jack Renault, Canadian heavyweight boxer, stepped on the scales in Brooklyn, registered 201 pounds. Bartley Madden, 183-pound Manhattanite, watched aghast. The two proceeded to the ring of Queensboro Stadium, where Renault battered Madden about with both his great hands and won the judges' decision.
Renault will now be touted vigorously as a target for Champion Dempsey, second in line only to the winner of the Firpo-Wills lambasting match in Newark on Sept. 11.
