DENNY RYAN, athletic director at
the Omaha Athletic club, believes
he has a heavyweight "find1’ in
Joe Stangl. former wrestler around
these parts.
Stangl. says Denny, has the mak
ings of a crackin' good fighter. He
lias about as much power behind one
of Ills blows that a mule puts in one
of iis kicks, is the way Ryan puts it.
Denny is training fiangi for the
latter's initial debut as a borer in an
Omaha ring.
"We want Johnny Lee and then
Tiny Herman.’ chirps Denny. "After
we t>eat these two heavyweights bring
on more ’meat.’ because my man
Stangl is a coming fighter."

STANGL is just one of the many
wrestlers who have quit the
padded mat for the fistic game.
The wrestling game is a dead issue
in this sate and as many of the
grapplrrs depend on their muscles
to earn them bread and butter,
they have quit the tumbling art
lor the more profitable sport of
leather-pushing.

HOME It SHERIDAN, former mid
dleweight wrestler of a pretty
good grade, gave up the mat
game because there was more w-ork
ill the fistic line. Sheridan, before he
injured his jaw, was making rapid
stridt^i with his mitts and at the
same time, collecting a few shekels
that helped keep the wolf from the
kitchen.

Stangl tried hi.s luck at pushing
his fists into the face of one 'Big''
Munn about two years ago in a bout
in South Omaha. Joe won via
knockout but the contest was one of
those slugging affairs where science
was a minus quality. Stangl took 'em
in this bout and came back for more.

should make a fairly good heavy
