REMINDS OF KID LEWIS NEW YORK W) The British, who have preferred to discuss cricket these many years, are talk ing of fightir.s and English fighters again. Shades of Jem Driscoll and Ted Kid Lewis were in Madison Square Garden last night as Jock McAvoy, middle and light heavyweight cham pion of the empire, unleashed a torrent of leather against Babe Rlsko of Syracuse.

N. world middleweight champion, and knocked him out in 2:48 of the first round. Lands First Punch A fidgety fighter whose face drained white as he leaped from his stool at the opening gong. McAvoy sent Risko to the canvas with his first right hand punch. That punch was the beginning of the end for the Syracuse boy who gained his title, which was not at stake last night, from Teddy Yarosz about three months ago.

Risko, startled, climbed back to his feet without a count. The Englishman, his arms flailing like a windmill in a gale, looped over lefts and rights that sent Risko staggering backward and finally down again for a count of six. yinta Another 'Storm' Risko waited for the count on one knee, on his face was the sardonic half-grin of a champion who finds himself on the floor before he has had time to throw a punch. He arose to meet another storm of leather; lefts that came in under and over his wobbling left hand defense and finally induced him to lift his chin for the right hand smash that was the Eriton's objective. The American went down three more times before McAvoy pinned him against the ropes and sledged him to the floor for the final count.

McAvoy weighed 1G3 1-2 pounds. 7 1-4 more than Risko. ILLINOIS PUSSES TEST AT RE PAUL Win 26 to 24 Over Demons in Preparing to Defend Share I Of Big Ten Title.

Lakeview's reserves also suffered a drubbing, 36 to 18, with Griffin and Leland teaming up to score 28 points between them for the Western second-string outfit.

"There is no longer so much hypocrisy in handlmg the college football situation," says a sports editor whose opinions are widely shared. "Everyone knows there is plenty of recruiting and subsidizing. It's a I healthv sign to have it brought out into the open and, if possible, regu- lated bv reasonable standards.
