Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.—Washington correspondents announce Max Schmeling, German heavyweight sensation, visited the capital seeking ambassadorial assistance in regard to his tangled business affairs. Schmeling, as is known is jointly owned and operated by a corps of managers, both German and American, these individuals holding stock in him in amounts ranging from 6 per cent to 40 per cent. In addition, the New York boxing commission exercises a sort of parental guidance over him, collecting his monies after each fight and attending to the pay-offs. n tt a With what is left Schmelirit is allowed to go out anti spend as his fancy dictates, provided his fancies do not carry him beyond three dollars and eighty cents. It was in this connection that William Muldoon made the suggestion that a receiver be appointed for the young heavyweight until such time as the number of managers mi*rht be reduced to normal proportions. a a a IN one breath Muldoon admitted that only a gentleman was fitted for such a responsibility. Then in the next he deplored that there were no gentlemen connected with the prize fight business. And in still another he proposed that James <Bowtie> Bronson be appointed. Just what this means Bronson has not yet determined. ana' BCHMELING WAS ACCOMPANIED TO Washington by colonel john hamMOND. WHO IS EMPLOYED BY THE MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. THE COLONEL PROFESSES TO SEE IN SCHMELING THE COMING HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. AND FOR THAT REASON HE WANTS TO SEE THAT HE GETS JUSTICE WHILE IN THIS COUNTRY. THE COLONEL IS A FORMER ARMY MAN AND IT MUST BE ASSUMED HIS INTEREST IN THE CASE IS INSPIRED BY A SENSE OF FAIR PLAY. PATRIOTISM AND INTERNATIONAL AMITY. tt a a Os course the colonel also has Suhmeling's pledge to do all of his important fighting for the Garden, but he is plainly not the type to permit crass and materialistic matters to influence his actions. a a a SCHMELING'S petition to the German ambassador is not without precedent, nor is it exactly novel to witness the machinery of a government attempting to function in the interest of a sport or a sporting character. Last summer the American ambassador to France caused the reinstatement of Bill Tilden, the one, two. to the Davis cup team after he had been debarred by the United States Lawn Tennis Association on the eve of the championship matches with the French team. a a a THE FRENCH HAD SOLD TICKETS TO THE MATCHES ON THE PROMISE THAT TILDE N HIMSELF. IN FLANNELS AND FLESH. WOULD APPEAR. A MEETING BETWEEN THE AMERICAN ACE AND lACOSTE OR COCHET WAS IN PROSPECT. THIS MEANT A SERIES OF CAPACITY GATES. WHICH OTHERWISE WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. tt a a The situation called for rare diplomacy. It would never do to offend the French people. And there was the gate. Ah, yes, the gate! So amid much ceremony and formality Tilden was returned to the American team.

They laid their cards on the table today and when they had finished telling Dick Hoyt, principal stockholder in Madison Square Garden, about the financial status of the bout, they made it clear that a profit probably would be made. “I believe the seat sale will go to $400,000,” Carey told Hoyt. “It may be somewhere between 1350,000 and $400,000, but whatever it is we are going to make a profit.”

Huge Crowd May Witness Bulldogs and Irish Battle Friday

De Mave and Chuck Await Armory Bell Packed House Assured Tonight for Legion Glove Feature; Other Scraps. THE COMPLETE CARD Ten Round* —Chuck Wiggins, Indianapolis, vs. Jack De Mave, Jersey City; heavyweights. ! Eight Rounds—Ehrman Clark, Indianapolis, vs. Lon Lovelace, Terre Haute, S!x r ßonnds—-BiDv Bishop, Cincinnati, vs. Billv Myers, Indianapolis; heavyweights. , Six Rounds—Cetil Hurt, Indianapols, vs. I K. O. Brown, Ft. Harrison; light heavy--1 weights. Four Rounds —Harvey Novatny, Great Ralls, Mont., vs. Herb Anderson, Kokomo; middleweights. ..;re isn’t much left to say in advance of the regular weekly ! glove-throwing show at the Armory j tonight. The usual five bouts will ibe offered. Many fans have a hunch Chuck Wiggins is due lor a licking at the hands of Jack De Mave in the main go, others believe the Hoosier will outbox his opponent, and still there are others who are going merely to see what happens. At any rate the show is a sellout, which means old Chuck still can pack ’em in in his home town. Matchmaker Greene's only remaining advance announcement is a request to the fans to be in their seats early to permit him to start the first prelim at 8:15. De Mave holds a win over Wiggins, gained in St. Louis some time ago, when the referee disqualified Chuck for alleged rough work and held aloft the hand of the big Hollander who does his fighting now' out of Jersey City. In describing that St. Louis scrap, De Mave said he registered no complaint with the referee about Wiggins’ tactics and that the “ref” took it upon himself to end the clash. Low punches were not involved, De Mave said. Tonight’s prelim card looks promising and the large crowd no doubt will be well entertained if the feature bout lives up to expectations. Wabash Slugger on Cadle Card Louie Lynch, 145 pounds, has been matched to meet Ed Trovance, Wabash, Ind., welterweight, in the six-rounder on Promoter McLemore’s boxing card Friday, at Cadle tabernacle.

Two Negro pugs, Ray Hurtz and Shifty Calloway, have agreed to battle it out in the semiwindup of eight rounds. * Two prelims of four rounds each will complete the bill.
