STAN LOMAX
aT once punched Joe Louis in the JL whiskers," says Stan Lomax, WOR's ace sportscaster. "And what's more," he adds, "I've got a picture to prove it."
What Stan humorously forgets to add, however, is that the picture shows he was wearing a catcher's mask when he stepped into the ring for his "battle of the Century," carrying a portable microphone to give WOR listeners an account of how it feels to swap punches with the famed Detroit Brown Bomber.
Where action-packed sports programs are concerned, Lomax has long been the favorite of New York Metropolitan audiences. Stan's sportscasts are heard over WOR Mondays through Saturdays from 6:45 to 7 P.M. With the outbreak of the Korean fighting, his broadcasts are again transcribed and rebroadcast throughout the world by the Armed Forces Radio Service.
Stan was born on May 20, 1899, and in his early years, in addition to his studies, he played first-string football, baseball and basketball. College years were spent at Cornell and Hobart where he was a member of both grid squads. At Cornell he was coached by the famed Gil'Dobie.
After college Stan played pro basketball, but when the first World War broke out, he volunteered in the Royal Air Force.
As a sportswriter for the Bronx Home News from 1923 to 1927, Stan covered an estimated 1,000 boxing bouts.
Among the top matches he has covered were those of DempseyFirpo, WillsWillard, the first Dempsey-Tunney bout and all Berlenbach's title bouts.
Stan's radio debut came in 1930, over WOR, after several years with the N. Y. Journal American.
During World War II, Stan was responsible for the sale .of over one million dollars in War Savings Bonds, and was cited by the U. S. Treasury Department.
Married and the father of one son, Lomax lives in Garden City, Long Island, and in his spare Sunday afternoons he joins thousands of other fellow Americans watching local football games.
