SCHMELING IS FIGHT VICTOR ON FOOL BLOW Sharkey Wins Every Round But Hits Opponent Too Low New York. June 13.—(U.R) —The fiatlc world has a new heavyweight champion today, bat the decision which brought that honor to Max Hrhmeling, the fortunate youth of •Xi-rinany, still rankles in the leasts of some SO,OOO spectators i who witnessed the unfortunate endhie to the battle for the title. With but six seconds left to go in the forth round of last night’s! sp< ctacular tight in Yankee stadium, Jack Sharkey, who had outclassed Schmeling in every way.' whipped home a terrific left hook which landed below Max's belt. | Th • German, a badly beaten fight- r until that moment, went down helpless and incapacitated. 1 ami after an inexcusable delay and amidst scene of tremendous contusion. Referee Jimmy Crowley 1 award d the fight anjl the championship to Schmeling. No other decision was possible, since the only Judge in a position! to see .where that swishing left nook landed declared it a palpable' foul. [ The better man—Jack Sharkey— | once more fell victim to the ill-tor- j tune which has dogged his footsteps across the years in which he has sought the heavyweight title. ; Max Schmeling is' the new champ- 1 ion of the world, but champion by vtitue of the sane good luck which ha - marked his carreer. The marble ‘ base of the “Tunney-Muldoon I trophy" will be carved with the name of the German youth, but no one among the vast throng which packed every nook and cranny of! the towering Yankee stadium last night left with any doubt that; Jack Sharkey was the better man. 1 For three rounds, the Bostonian, i proud of his chance to represent' th? United States in an internal-] ional bout of such importance.! trained to the minute, and fighting; the greatest fight of his career, toyed with the young man of the Rhineland. In the third round, Schmeling was all but out on his; feet, a battered and beaten victim of a worthy successor to the long line of heavyweight champions: f om John L. Sullivan down through ' Gene Tunney. Five minutes later, after the con-1 fusion caused by the indecision of; the referee, the clamor of seconds; and managers and upon the worS, ot a lone judge, Harold Barnes, it 1 was Max Schmeling instead of Jack Sharkey who was declared champion of the world. Never before in prize ring his-;i tory has a heavyweight title been I

(awarded on a foul. Yet in th* . final analysis, no other verdict wat I possible. It happt ned this way. Sharkey towards the end ot the fourth I found, whipped over a right to the Jaw which sent Schmeling sagging [ against the ropes. As Max eaim I off the ropes, the Bostonian started ; a long, low left* swing from the knee. Th- blow, which would have J landed well above the waist-line : had Schmeling remained back on I his heels, caught Max, who was i stumbling forward into a clinch, | flush in the groin. 1 Schmeling went down, grimacing with pain. Referee Crowley sawno foul, and proceeded to count up 1 to "6 ’ wh a the bell signalled the end of the round. Maxie's seconds carried him to his corner and j worked ov r him frantically. When the bell signalled the start iof the fifth round, Sharkey, cool this time and with none of the | hysteria which marked his performance under similar circumstances at Miami in his bout with Phil Scott, dashed across the ring. Schm ling couldn't get up. His I seconds remained around him. The 1 count which would have been a signal for victory for Sharkey l>egan. But before the knockdown time-keeper had beat out the measure with his little wooden hammer. Referee Crowley had come to a deIcislon. On the word of the one i judge, the only one who claimed to have seen the blow land low, the |a bitrer awarded the fight to the German on a foul. The ensuing pandemonium was .somewhat less than plight have been expected under the circumstances. Jack Sharkey, his hopes 1 of a championship so richly deserved thus stripped from him, slumped in his seat. Tears streamed 'down his face. But he took it like ■ a man. and a moment later assist'ed in the labored departure of ! Schmeling, the new champion. ' from the ring. The roar of the ' crowd was half in protest, half in satisfaction. It was an ending to a championI ship bout distressing beyond anyone's expectation. The referee and | judges explained their positions, [Crowley claiming he had no other I course under the rules. Schmel-' ing, examined by ,a boxing physician. bore evidence of having been 1 fouled. "1 told Jack to keep his punches up. 1 will give him a return bout,” Schmeling said after the fight. But the German youth probably will be ; advised away from any such course by his handlers. On the form displayed last night. Sharkey is far the better man. Schmeling will take the championship ot the world to Germany, the first time it has left the country since Tommy Burns, a Canadian. Born Noah Brusso, skipped off to Australia back in 1906. There will be a clamor for Jack Dempsey's return to the ring, the former champion having said that he would do so if Sharkey did not succe d in keeping the title in the United States. But Dempsey, on

BRITONS PLAN . MOTOR EXHIBIT IN ARGENTINA I I Society to Assemble Collective Display For Trade Show in 1931 London, E ig., June 13—(UP)— The Society of British Motor Manui facturers is now planning a collecI tive exhibit to lie entered In the British Empire Trade Exhibition to lie held in Buenos Aires in 1931. i The recent provisional booking ot 10,000 feet of space for the propos- ■ <1 exhibition is indicative of the Interest being shown by the motor car industry. The booking of the space by the motor car manufacturers resulted from a conference between the Raders of the industry and J. H. ITlumias. the Lord Privy Seal. It is believed that the motor car I entry will show the development ol the industry from the very beginning. Brian Bellasis in speaking of I the progr ss of the exhibition says, "All the a. rangements and preparations now being made are but I the finishing touches to what, even 'at this stage, would be an extraordinary demonstration of the magnitude of the British Empire." Many of the exhibits of the British government at the Antwerp exhibition will be taken to Buenos Aires. These exhibits show in graphic description the work done in the British Empire to combat tiopical diseases, models of flying apparatus, including a model of I the one-time greaXly admired ma- | chine made by the Wright broth'"•s. and the !ate“t models of BrPish civil and military aircraft, and i a set of British warships in miniature scale since the time of Nelson. Another entry depicts the proI gross of British merchant marine ; shipping. It is now definitely understood that the British government will send an aircraft carrier and air- • planes to Buenos Aires to give displays in the port of Argentine's largest city.
