I'm 38 hours early, but I figure i a m.n is foolish to run the risk of I ! being late. Those who wait uhtilj tomorrow to start for the stadium I will be In danger of being delayed , by one thing or another and missing the entire bout. Louis has* proved In earlier fights that seconds count when he starts punching.

I his glasses for a moment and before he could get them back on Schineling was out of the ring and i tx.mid for a fashionable X-ray photographer. Oaletito figures to last no longer than a candle in a monsoon. Some of the more conservative experts have estimated his time in the ring as 11 seconds. but there Is nothing in his ret ord to indicate that he will be around for as long as that. My own guess is that he will break the course record for the Yankee stadium and become an intimate, if not animate, part ■ of the canvas tfithln six seconds I after the bell rings. It being my duty to report what happens in the ring tomorrow night I started weeks ago sharpening my eyes to a point where I <ould follow Action of tremendous speed As I alt here now, alone but for the carpenters who are erecting the ring in which Ualento , will regret every beer he ever sipped, every cigar he ever smoked and every "bum!” he ever callIrd lamia. 1 believe my eyes are : sharp enough to record every I tremble of Tony's legs when he walks out to get trapped on the ■ noggin. I feel confident that when Tony goes down In sections I will ' be able to spot which section first starts earthward, and which one |is first to land. I plan to do my own timing of ; the bont. using a very delicate watch which deals In fractions of fractions of seconds. With it 1 should be able to tell you the ex--1 act time that Ualento first realties ■ that the entire match is a big mis- , take and that he should have stayed in New Jersey with a mahogany bar. the Hudson river and most of Manhattan Island between him and Louis. According to my reckoning this • moment should come somewhere between 10:01 pm snd 10:01 1 30th P m.. or while the echo of the opening bell is still ringing in his ears.
