WOULDTRANSFER CHAMPION FIGHT Seek To Change Brad* dock-Schmeling Bout To Berlin New York. Dec. 17 — (U.R) A group of wealthy Eutopeans hw started negotiations to transfer the Jimmy Braddock-Max Schmelfng heavyweight title fight next June from New York to Berlin. It was learned today. Dennis Scanlon, an international business man with headquarters in Ixindon and New York, has conferred with Madison Square Garden. co-protnoter of the bout with the 20th Century Club. He said that John Reed Kilpatrick, Garden president, is “interested in the proposition it certain conditions can be met.” Although he has not conferred with Mike Jacobs. 20th Century Club promoter who is opposed to a tra.nsfer, Scanlon said he planned to leave for Germany immediately after Christmas to “set' about meeting those conditions.” ’ According to Scanlon, the Garden ani others connected with the fight are interested in the possible shift because they fear that ajiti-nazi sentiment in New York will cause a small gate if held at ' die garden bowl on Long Island and because they know the set-up is ideal for a huge gate in Berlin. Scanlon said that a group of friends in Europe with unlimited backing, after investigating the possibility of a Berlin fight in July, “concluded it would attract a gate of more than $1,750,000.’ They found that Berlin’s Olympic stadium could seat close to 200.000 persons for a fight. “Never before have circumstances offered such an ideal situation for a big European fight. The challenger. Sehmeling. is Germany's athletic idol. He is a close friend of Hitler. Hitler and his associates desire this fight.” Scanlon. said, “ft would give Germany much favorable publicity and it would at’ract thousands of visitors who would spend money in Germany.” o COLLEGE BASKETBALL i Northwestern 38, Notre Dame 19 Purdue 44.
