Law rence came in and pitcher two to regain the heavyweight tinx- ing crown, was told that an elec- j tro-cardiagram .'-bowed a heart condition which will not permit ! him to wrestle for at least six I months. The 42-year-old athlete be i came a grapplcr in an a'tempt To earn enough money to pay the assessment levied upon him bv 'he federal government for al ' leged tax discrepancies in the I war and post-war years. But row, even that avenue was 1 closed to him. Dr. Irving Slott. physician for r.B : the Illinois Athletic Commission. ,, I found that Louis' heart would not permit him to continue his . ; whistle-stop campaign for mm 4 j parative pennies to try and cut j his personal deficit. Slott said the former champ showed an "abnormal electro- cardiograph'' when hp examined Louis who had applied for per mission to wrestle at Round Lake. 111. Slott explained tiiat the ex amination showed Louis had a cardiac contusion, or an injury to one of the layers of the heart Pat Brooks. Louis' brother, re vealed that alum; a month ago Louis learned of his heart con dition when lie was examined by Dr. Robert Bennett of De troit. Brooks said Louis went to Bennett complaining of a pain in the chest and believing he had a rib injury. Louis has wres tled twice since then, the latest time on July 16 when he got $155 for beating Bozo Brown in two straight falls at Round Lake. III. The seriousness of Louis' heart condition was revealed to day in a telephone call from him to his wife in New York City. Mrs. Louis said the ex-champ told her he has probably been knocked out of the ring for good bv the heart ailment. 4Mb. WITH POOR BkAKtS Itmevl Front Wh.elk, Inlpttct Lining.
