BELIEVE 70,000 WILL ATTENO HEAVY EIGHT Sharkey - Schmeling To Draw Huge Crowd at Yankee Stadium New York. June 11.—<U.R) The I heavyweight champion-hip of the world will he nt stake tomorrow night, with probably 70,000 excited , fight fans looking on, and with public opinion fairly well divided i as to the outcome of this first fight for the title in two years. Jack Sharkey and Max Schmel-■ ing, who, by virtue of being the , best outstanding contenders, are' to battle for the privilege of being > Gene Tunney’s successors, had I finished their training today and I were resting, awaiting the opening bell. The bout, which, in addition to Introducing a new heavyweight champion, is expected to benefit materially Mrs. Wilillam Randolph Hearst’s milk fund for bab-{ les, will draw gross receipts of ■ more than $700,000, it was estimat-| ed today. Sharkey and Schmeling I will divide half that sum before | the milk bill is presented. Both fighters finished their

| training fit nnd ready. Sharkey apparently Is in a seriously deteri mined mood, confident for the first {time during his tempestuous career of the backing of a majority of | the fans. Schmeling, rather an len'gma. is being hacked by those i who play hunches against form. Everything Is in order In the { Sharkey camp, but Maxie has yet | to learn whether tile boxing comI mission is going to let him have i liis American manager, little Joe I Jacobs, in his corner tomorrow night. This matter will be settled today, when the commission meets. The odds governing what betting is being done favor Sharkey by 7 to 5, Tlie gambling element is inclined to lean towards the Bos- ! lonian for various reasons, such as his experience, his American citizenship and the local commis- , sion's hostility towards Jacobs. | James A. Farley, chairman of the commission, has issued a stateI meat through the United Press, promising Schmeling fair play. ■ There is still some liively dis- { cussion over the matter of the referee, who might be Eddie Forbes, veteran arbiter and boxing writer. Sharkey, by virtue of his greater experience, his known ability to rise to great heights in fist'c { crises, his fast left hand and reck- { lessness under fire, seems th" , logical favorite. Schmeling's record is not impressive, nor has he | shown anything in training to war- | rant h's becoming champion. It will be a fast, clever, left hand hitter against a stubborn. | willing, vigilt hand puncher tomorrow night. Sharkey has an effec- { tive left hook, and Schmeling apparently is a mark for such a blow. Max. on the other hand, can drop his right over from short distances with devastating effect, and many of the experts have ■ pointed out that Jack is easy to , hit in this way. All of which promises to make , the fight interesting as far as it goes, with plenty of profit for all concerned and something left over for the milk fund.
