Sport: Who Won, Apr. 17, 1933

¶Joe Savoldi, onetime Notre Dame footballer: a wrestling match against Christopher Theophilus (Jim Londos), generally recognized as world’s heavyweight champion; in 26 min. 20 sec.; in Chicago. Just before the bout ended, Londos caught Savoldi’s arm in his famed “Japanese scissors”; Savoldi rose from the floor with Londos still clinging to the arm upside down. He stood Londos on his head near the ropes, rolled his shoulders on the mat. Without waiting to count, Referee Bob Managoff, onetime professional wrestler, tapped Savoldi’s shoulder, awarded him the match to the intense surprise of both contestants and a crowd of 7,000. Chairman Joseph Triner of the Illinois Athletic Commission decided that Savoldi had won properly, but banned wrestling in the State indefinitely because of the uproar over the decision.
