BRADDOCK WIN OVER BAER IS FISTIC UPSET Heavyweight Fight Is Termed Poorest In Sport's History 'New York. June 14. —(U.R) The greatest furore of modern boxing threatened to break today around James Jay Braddock's amazing victory over Max Adelbert Baer in their world heavyweight championship fight last night. Braddock, one definitely relegated to fistic oblivion, came back from the shadows to win a title decision unanimous with the three officials and stamped 100 per cent .►Meh by boxing writers. Yet eircums'a.nces, most puzzling an 1 contusing challenged his right to boxing’s richest prize. This was because: 1. Baer, who pounded huge Primo Camera to a pulp, and who was making his first defense of the title, didn’t fight a lick. 2. Although he blamed injured hands. Max never once struck BTaddock hard enough to break a fingernail. Doctors who examined htm after the tight said his hands were only bruised. 8. The state athletic commission meets today and will, according to Gen. John Phelan, chairman. “consider" the fight. 4. Braddock was a. Tto-1 shot, j Bat. to add to the puzzle, there i was unusually light wagering and I n» evidence of a ’killing" by gamblers. To make the whirl just a little dizzier. Baer announce*! his retirement from the ring. But no one ■ took it seriously The heart of the rumpus was the ! m———— _ mil.

fight itself. Veteran followers of heavyweights were unanimous In branding the Braddock-Baer go the moat insane 15 championship rounds in Marquis of (Jueensberry history. ( Braddock's vaunted left, although often aimed at Baer and often scored, never once bothered the defending champion. Baer, who was credited with ; killing one man in a fight and who. in not more than half a dozen flurries of fury, annihiliated Camera, never opened up. For a round or two ft seemed he was merely biding nis time. The fight went on and on to its dreary conclusion. But Baer never opened up. Not the least amazing angle was Baer's hands. The writer sat at Baer's corner. As Max went to his seat at the tenth round he turned, held out his right hdnd and glanced down at it. "It’s gone,” he said. "Is It broken?” "Yes. broken." He held up his left. "It’s gone, too. Both broken. Broke 'em in the fifth. Come back after ?.ud I’ll show you.". But the hands were not broken, j o Van Wert Caddies Defeat Decatur The Van Wert caddies defeated the D catur caddies at Van Wert Thursday. 5 to 4 John Baumann was low with rounds of 26 and 38 for ; a 74.

He also discussed the cross-j currents of thinking under which the public demanded overnight that the banks of the country be liquid enough to nay off all depositors and within a short eighteen months or two years th** same people often criticized the banks for not loaning funds and thereby retarding recovery. “Even some public officials, ioined the chorus of 'bank knockers’.” he said, “assailing bank

These officials | have not leame<|. perhaps, that ] ] today the banks of the country • are carrying more than one-half; of the government’s obligations * and these government obligations represent more than one-half of the total ba»ik assets of the country.
