Sharkey had little to say except about 10,000 words describing the '.iiiotis methods of mayhem witli "bieh he hoped to prove that Schmeling had "stolen’’ the title from him two years ago by "tlropping to the floor and making faces.” I'he champion was to arrive to'lay.

Neither suflered hand injuries during long siege of training. !>• spite Sharkey's threats and promises, Schmeling remains a slight favorite in the meagre betthig, at odds of 10 to 9. Sharkey will have at least a Id-pound weight advantage when I hey climb through the ropes, lack sealed 2(13 pounds when ho finished his workout yesterday, and Max registered 191. But Schmeling has the advantage in years. He is 2u. while Sharkey is President William F.

He hittrained long and hard for this affair and will enter the ring tomorrow night at a poundage under that of two years ago when he blasted Schmeling for four rounds only to lose on a foul. Sharkey has always felt that Maxie took the easiest way out in that affair and he has nursed a grudge ever since Tomorrow night, he says, the slate will be wiped clean and the job will be done just as quickly and in as workmanlike a manner as possible.

McMANUS NEW BOSTON PILOT New York, June 20 <U.R> John. Shamil Collins, disliearteiied by his inability to blast the Boston Red Sox out of the doldrums, has resigned as manager in favor of Marty McManus, the Red Sox's i aggressive second baseman.

And yesterday, on Mc-| Manus' first day as pilot, the Sox lost two more games to the Cleveland Indians, 9 to 3 and 6 to 3. Collins watched the play from the grandstand. He had wired his j resignation to President Bob| Quinn at Boston, suggesting that > McManus rctonsider, but Shano was "through." Tliis double victory enabled the Cleveland Indians to replace Washington in third place in the American league, as Washington lost lo Detroit, X to 5. Cleveland’s pitcher, Clint Brown won his own game in the Sth inning by hitting a home run with two men on base in the nightcap. Detroit made it three out of four over Washington as the Tigers pounded Burke and Weaver for 14 hits. Stone of the Tigers drove out a four-bagger in the sixth.

NILTEr) FROM PAGE ONE) the Indiana house of represents fives; Frederick Van Nuys, and Bernard B. Shively, co-author of the Spencer-Shively public service commission act. Myers is said to be opposed by utility interests, whose support is with Van Nuys. Myers is backed by the Municipal Rights League of Indiana. An 11th hour shift in the supreme court-appellate court lineup threatened to precipatate another hiated contest. Ralph Smith, LaPorte. who originally announced for nomination for supreme court from the fifth district, indicate! he would seek the nomination for

appellate court of the second dl vision. If the change Is made, Michael Pansier, Ixigunsport, will ' be alone in the field for the sn- ' premc court post, and Smith will oppose George Osborn, Sheridan ! and Francis Bowser, Warsaw. Thomas Haggnrt, national comi mltteenian. Is expected to be r< ■ i elected by acclamation. The outi tome of the vice chairmanship inot so certain because Mrs. James R. Riggs, incumlmnt, supported Loe Bays. Sullivan, in his attempt to defeat Peters for the chairmanship. Mrs. Samuel Ralston, widow 11 of Governor Ralston, and Miss > j Faye Torrell, Indianapolis, have f| been mentioned as successors to I Mrs. Riggs. Views of the Peters i clan on this position are not defi | nitely known. At district meetings tonight ' delegates to the national convention in Chicago next week, and committee members, will be num cd. The convention is scheduled l< I be called to order at 9:30 tomor- , row morning. Speeches, accord- ’ ing to Peters, will be at a mini mum.

state, who fought vigorously t > defeat Peters’ re-elect ion its state cna.rimin, was overwhelmingly rebuffed. Peters gained nearly all chairmen and vice chairmen tn tlic 12 districts. When Peters was returned to I office, it at first was believed that "disciplinary" action would be taken against Mayr. This eventI nally quieted ns Peters forces took the attitude of "letting bygones be bygones." The breadi was seal.'l , to the extent that at a recent sixth J district rally a resolution was adopted urging re nomination of ■all Democrats holding two-year ■ offices. '| Witli tlie eve of tlm convention ' approaching, however, new fuel i has been east on tlie fire. Reports I wore current today That Peters i was planning to place a candidate I in tin field to oppose Mayr for re- ' I nomination. Peters' support of I another candidate would make I is , election probabh . Il would be the ■ first time in years that a two-year ’ i office holder was not renominated. "I Mayr. on tlie oilier hand, holds : a trump card. He is in a position to disburse a vote getting slue of patronage if lie chooses to rule ’ that new auto drivers' licenses ’ will lie required for 1932. Tlie b‘- ‘ | cislon must lie made by July 1. 1 I Issuance of new licenses wool I ' mean vast remunerative ret irns for auto license branches, since a 25-eent notary fee is required for each license. Possible opponents of Mayr 'o- ' morrow are. Virgil Simmons. Bluff 'I ton. fourth district chairman, and Thomas McConnell. Fowler, sei ■ 'i ond district chairman. If Mayr is ilefeatcd, shakeup- in til" state polite and auto license ' departnieuts are inevitable. Get the Habit — Trade at Home
