' trying to remain calm and save all ! their energy and strength built up through weeks of hard training. Sharks y has been through the I big battle ordeal before, hut for the ' first time in his career seemed to I have his liighiy-sensitive nervous . ystem well under control. Before ! meeting Jack Dempsey three years i ago, Sharkey paced the floor of his hotel room like a tiger in a cage, but it was different today. After a brisk walk early this morning hsat down with his manager.

I Joe Jacobs, the German's Manager. hid Schmeling out in a private ■ home in the Bronx, somewhere near Yankee Stadium, and made him incommunicado to everyone, including newspaper men. A body guard of plain clothes men remained with Schmeling throughout last i|ight and refused to allow anyone to see i him. o * BASEBALL • * With a nine-game winning streak intact, the New York Giants today hoped to set a National League season record for consecutive victories by winning one more game from the Pitt-burgh Pirates.

Sixteen hits, including Mel Ott's 13th homer of the season, behind effective pitching by Carl Hubbell, who chalked up his sixth victory, gave the Giants yesterday's game. The Cleveland Indians continued their sensational play in the Am erican League, defeating the Philadelphia Athletics 6 to 2 and advancing to within two games of -th? League lead. Washington defeated Chicago 2 to 1, and held a one-half game lead j over Cleveland for second place.

A throng numbering nearly 75,000, tile seventh largest fight i crowd of all time, will b ■ packed lin the big ball park when Sharkey ■ and Schmeling answer the opening I bell of their dramatic 15-round en-1 I' count'’r at approximately 10 p. m„ 1 eastern daylight saving time. 1 There will be present celebrities • galore, including Gene Tunney, who tossed aside the heavyweight , ciown undefeated nearly two years ago, Mayor Walker, Secretary of War Hurley and representatives of ■ the German diplomatic corps in i this country. 1 Tlx-re will be millions listening I in on an international hook-up as i these two leading candidates bat • tie for the title. Sharkey, who awoke today for ! his brief limbering up stroll i through Central Park fit and quietI ly confident, is favored by a major- ! ity of the country's fight fans and I experts to defeat his youthful op ponent. The last minute odds' were 8 to 5 on the Bostonian, al- ' thougli there has been surprisingly' : little betting.

While the battli’ tonight will not approach in attendance and te- <■ ipts the great fights in which Jack Dempsey and Gene lutin'') > participated, it Is expected to draw nearly SMOO.OOO. Tit nation s tight I fans, slow' at first to warm to the, encounter because of Sharkeys frequently disappointing bouts and Schirnding's inexperience and long absence fiom the ring, has come to aco-pt the affair In ait Its championship aspects. Both contenders from the heavyj weight titl • attended musical com jt dies last night and retired early,: Sharkey to an uptown hotel.! Schmeling to the house of a friend of his manager, Joe Jacobs. '1 he latter obtained last minute p milsj sion from the New York state ath- ! letic commission to serve as MaxI ie's chief second tonight. | Tlv? boxing commission withheld its decision as to the referee ami judges until a few minutes before .he bout. Four leading referees will lie at tin; ringside, re ally to I serve if called upon.

Sharkey and Schmeling are fighting on a percentage basis, and each will rec ive considerably in excess of $150,000. It is estimated that th- championshiiF will be wot th more than $1,000,000 to the 1 winner. Those who have picked Sharkey to win are gambling upon his greater experience, his fast left ; hand and his better showing dur!ing training. Schm ling’s backers ' count upon his youth, his coolness and his right hand. There is every reason to anticiI imte one of the best heavyweight'
