Ex-champ Jersey Joe Wolcott did alright by himself and shouldn’t and doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for him. Considering that he never was a first ranking fighter his making such a grand cometock after retiring some years ago whs phenomenal.

It is the only one in the world where you ran go on the radio and kid the politicians and where the politicians can get on the radio and kid the people.” * * ♦ Chit-Chats: Tony Steelier says that on October 30th will be the first boxing show of the season and a good one ton .... St. Paul is ready to also announce a fight card for October . . . The Vern Gagnes are expecting u little wrestler any hours now . . .
