IIRC, the Professor's reference to himself as a former savateur is in the opening pages of Tintin:Flight 714. As i don't have a copy myself, perhaps someone else could check this to get the requested citation! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.20.244.207 (talk • contribs) 08:41, 20 June 2006

I have the UK Magnet edition from 1986(?), the remark is found at page 7

-...I've been an all-round sportsman in my time, though you many not think so now.
-Tennis, swimming, rugger, soccer, fencing, skating... I did them all in my young days. 
 Not forgetting the ring, too: wrestling, boxing and even savate...
-Savate?... (Laszlo Carreidas)
-No, no, no! I said savate, French boxing... Stars above! 
 They make me laugh nowadays with their judo and their karate. 
 Savate! That was real fighting!...
-Using your feet as well as your fists!... 
 I was a champion... unbeatable... just you watch this...
-HUP!

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Herge Calculus ad.jpg

Image:Herge Calculus ad.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
