Eleven experts put the brown bomber at the top, because of his knockout by Max Schmeltng, an event already rated aa the year's bigRest combin ed come-back and upset.

Next to the Red Sox In baseball, the Chicago Cubs were rated the biggest disappointment to their fol lowers. The Detroit Tigers, picked by most critics to repeat In the American league, and the St. Louis Cardinals pitching staff also were cited. College football's disappointments depended largely upon the sectional point of view. Ohio State's Buck eyes, for falling to be national title contenders, got the most mention. but the Iowa, Kentucky, Georgia Tech, St. Mary'a and Fordham gridiron aggregations also were con sidered "built up for a let down." Failure of the American Olympic committee to reinstate the back stroke swimming queen, Eleanor Holm Jarrctt, was voted the main disappointment in connection with the big games In Germany.
