Lee Savold‘ Scores Sensational Victory

"_7' By Ted Snails

prpw YORK. March 19 —(.AP) ..ue Savold. 32-year-old ring campaigner, scored a sensational knockout in 54 seconds of the first round tonight over. Gino Buonvino. the Italian heavyweight champion.

It was Buonvino’; first defeat af- ter l1 consecutive victories in the United States.

originally Buorivino was sched- uled to fight Joe Baksi, but Baksi developed ankle trouble smd Savold was substituted at the last minute.

The fight started briskly with both heavyweights trading punch- q freely. Savoid got over several fast hard left jabs and then sank the Italian with a hard right.

At first Buonvino laid face down and then got almost to his knees u if he would come up before the count. But by the time referee Ruby Goldstein reached eight he gave up and fell flat on his face.

The crowd that about half-filled Madison Square Garden was in an uproar. Buonvino, a handsome cleancut boxer, had entered the ring a 2-to-1 favorite over the ancient Savold. whose only hope was believed to lie 1n his ring trickery.

And trick Buonvlno he did. Sav- old’s fast. hard lefts brought blood to Buonvino’; nose and then, with the Italian against the ropes. Sav- old brought home the convinging right that ended matters before the fight had scarcely begun.

Buonvlno weighed . ‘i-2 and savold. from Paterson, N.J., came in at 190. Buonvino's home is in Bari. Italy.

Rabbits too have thinned out in numbers since the winter set in. Scme criticism has been advanced against the recommendation of the Fish and Game Association to have bhe rabbit season open on Novem- ber 1st and close on January 318i- The season was set ahead to Dec- timber 1st last season and evoked quite a kick-back from Charlotte- town gunners.
