Grayson's Scoreboard By HARRY GRAYSON XEA Sports Editor NEW YORK, April 9 SUld old Boston is agog about a cataclysmic cataclys-mic event, to wit, the defeat and consequent unmasking of the Golden Terror, who, it seems, had been spreading consternation throughout the country and wrestlers all over mats. Sandor Szabo, an Apollo-like grappler from Huugary via California, Cali-fornia, was the instrument of the Golden Terror's downfall in Boston Bos-ton Garden. That is, he was one of the instruments. Another was the not so Apollo-like Tony Ga-lento Ga-lento of Two Ton proportions and lethal left hook. Szabo and the Golden Terror pulled and tugged before 10,000 goggle-eyed fans for the undisputed undisput-ed championship of the world. Undisputed Un-disputed seemed to be a misnomer, for there were more disputes to the square inch than goose pimples pim-ples on a gray in a haunted house at midnight. After Szabo had won the first fall by clamping the Golden Terror's Ter-ror's left leg in a vise-like lock and the Terror had retaliated by bending Sandor's right arm into a pretzel around an iron ring-post for the second fall, the boys settled set-tled down to pure unadulterated mayhem in the third and deciding act. Ed Strangler White, the Terror's Ter-ror's chief second, added to the general gaiety by yanking his man to the safety of the ropes at critical stages and was hand ed a swat on the kisser by Referee Ref-eree Galento. Szabo supplemented supplement-ed the biff by kicking White in the face for good measure, then proceded to hurl the Terror about with abandon, finally bouncing him on the floor with a flying mare that left him as flat as a bearskin rug. Galento took a sock at the whirling Terror just before the finish. Thus did Sandor Szabo not only acquire the championship, but he humiliated the Golden Terror before be-fore the gaping 10,000, stripped him of the $10,000 (?) belt me-blematic me-blematic of the crown, added insult in-sult to injury by unmasking him. Denuded of his Halloween outfit, out-fit, the Golden Terror gave his identity as one Leon Mahabobsky of Chattanooga all 379 pounds of him. Bostons cauliflower clientele isn't easily fooled. "The name, Leon .Mahabobsky, like his face, was brand new to Hub mat addicts," ad-dicts," reported the searching Doc Almy of the Post, "and very probably prob-ably phoney." To say nothing of the match. Showing how potent a hold rassling has on the Boston populace, popu-lace, the dignified Boston Daily Globe displayed- the report of the affair on its first page. It might be worthy of note that the tale was placed directly beneath be-neath a conspicuous box headed: KEEP BOSTON CLEAN. Well, it's good clean fun.

By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 8 E tfreacue Arcner, tne nine-toea iar ruper from Newark, shattered the current calm on New York's fistic front by declaring, 'Beau Jack ain't fighting as good now as he wuz when I licked him twicet." Fortunately there were no file working out on the poop deck of Stillman's gymnasium, because the mouths of reporters popped wide open at this statement. The sports beagles were flabbergasted. Here was a guy smearing clay on the feet of fistiana's idol. Archer, a square-shouldered, stocky blond, with a slightly cauli-flowered cauli-flowered left' ear, towelled the perspiration from his face, as he stood beneath the punchlng-bag canbpy, and continued: "I been watchin' Beau Jack in all his fights since I got outta the navy. Sometimes he makes me so sick, I get up and leave before be-fore the fight's over. He looked like a comer when I gave him those two lickin's at St Nick's back in forty-one. But somebody tried to turn him into a fancy-Dan, fancy-Dan, an' made a clown outta him just to make money. He doesn't hit as hard as he used to; and he don't know where his punches is goin' misses too much. An he burns his self out with a lotta waste motion. It's too bad: he might'a been a good fighter." Wants Jack Bout Archer, who beat Fritzie Zivlc at Elizabeth, N. J., last week, craves a tilt with Beau Jack at Madison Square Garden. However, Freddie's manager, Willkie Ketch-um, Ketch-um, said during yesterday's workout, work-out, "I don't think we'll ever get Beau Jack into the ring. He ain't forgot those beatin's Freddie gave him; he knows Freddie's too tough." Meanwhile the New Jersey welterweight wel-terweight will keep busy, Ketchum said, meeting any welter or lightweight light-weight in the world any place. His next engagement will be at Holyoke, Mass., April 24, against an opponent to be selected soon. He was scheduled to fight Henry Armstrong In Chicago, April 28, but that bout was cancelled when Armstrong was accepted by the army. Archer has registered four straight victories since his medical medi-cal discharge from the navy, after IS months in uniform. Although Freddie has only nine toes, the navy accepted him, but the regulation regu-lation shoes caused constant swelling swell-ing of the right foot, from which the big toe is missing. When he was a small boy. a fire-escape weight fell on his foot, cutting off the toe. Archer, a combination boxer- puncher who specialists In the left hook, started his professional career in 1946, although he is only 21 now. In 43 bouts before entering en-tering the navy, he lost only to four opponents Morris Parker, Marty Servo, Danny Kapilow and Tippy Larkln. Manager Ketchum concluded: "We're negotiating for a bout next month with Bob Montgomery or Bummy Davis. Freddie can lick either of them, in spite of his nine toes " The Farmers Friends: Watkms Mineral Watkins (1 shot) Poultry Wormer Watkins Stock Dip (coefficient (co-efficient 6) Watkins Fly Spray (A-A grade) Watkins Roost Paint (ell base) Watkins Louse Killer for stock Watkins Rat Killer 100 Red Squill Watkins Dry Dip Watkins Petro-Cube Salve Watkins Veterinary Salve for sore teats Joseph H.
