On Technical Knockout
NEW YORK, April 4-(')-- The
Pagliacci of the ring had all the
laugh knocked out of him tonight-
probably for keeps.
Lou Nova, a guy with a chin of
half cement and half of iron, and as
determined as a Supreme Court de-
cision, stopped Maxie Baer in eight
rounds tonight and probably gave
the ex-king of the playboys, all the
fight he'll want from now on.
He stabbed Boer's left eye half
closed. He raised a "mouse" under
the right eye. Then he dropped Max
with a short right for a count of
nine in the eighth. Then he floored
him with the same thing again. Max
bounced up at the count of two this
time, but referee Arthur Donovan
realized he'd had enough for the eve-
ning and halted the bout right there
with Nova a technical knockout win-
ner at two minutes, 18 seconds of the
eighth.
For seven rounds it was one of the
toughest heavyweight hitting match-
es seen in this big sports "barn" in
years, as both clouters fought not
only for a shot at Joe Louis' heavy-
weight crown, but for what amount-
ed to their fistic careers.

freshmen helped win for Michigan

"The choice of a team from among
so many players was a hard decision,"
Courtright said. "We are not anxious
