Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

N'EW YORK. June 26 —Sitting around the, Garden punching the hag the day before the Schmel-ing-Paolino fight: “Well who's going to win the big fight?'’ “What big fight?" with rising inflection on the big. Rather mean. that. a a a Jack Johnson, the old time heavyweight champion, pops in in knickers, flashing his famous golden smile and looking for a ticket costing exactly nothing in money. “Been out some golf, Johnson?" “Nw sir. I’se just trying to look like one of these here modern fighters." JOHNSON LIKES PAOLINO OVER SCHMELING ' HE'S TOO TOUGH AND HE HAS TWO HANDS. ' IS HIS DOPE. AND YOU CAN TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT IN THE ORDER NAMED. W ALTER °ST*DENIS. the Garden's public relations counsel (who remembers the good old days when a press agent was a press agent?! weighs in with a hot story for the afternoon papers. ST.

The Garden chief urged that the fighter who had arranged to fly, come here either by rail or water. Professor McCarney interrupted: “I have a better idea. Ask him to walk.”

Fistic World Has Eyes on Sclnneling-Paolino Setto Thursday

Tribe Rests Before Trip East Starts No Game for Indians Today; Schupp Puzzles Millers Tuesday, 5 to 4. BY EDDIE ASH With Layne and Russell giving encouraging signs of being back in batting form and the pitching staff performing in splendid style, the Indians of Bruno Betzel have a hunch they are going to pick up some points dunng the impending road trip that will take them to Toledo, Columbus and Louisville before again appearing on the home lot July 8. The Tribe will begin a four-game series at Toledo Thursday. The pastimers had an off-day today and they felt pleased with themselves over their achievement in taking three games in five from the second-place Minneapolis nine. Ferd Schupp hurled the “agate” in masterful fashion in the series finale here Tuesday and won, 5 to 4. even in the face of costly Tribe miscues. He held the slugging Kelley crew to seven hits and struck out seven. Middleton Defeated The crafty Jimmy Middleton hurled for Minneapolis and ‘‘got took,” which is more evidence the Betzelites still are fighting. Jimmy is not easily whipped on any man’s diamond, for he is a veteran who knows all about it out there on the mound. Herman Layne led the Indian attack with a single, double and triple and Reb Russell came through with a single and home run, the circuit clout landing in the railroad yards beyond the high scoreboard in right. if Schupp had been given airtight support he would have been in line for a shutout. In the first round the Millers got a run when Layne and Warstler let Griffin’s fly fall between them, and in the third inning the Tribe infield “blew up.” permitting three unearned runs. And that finished the visitors for the day. Stolen Base—Russell! Indianapolis scored in the second on Russell’s single, his steal of second on the hit-and-run when Warstler missed the pitch, an infield out and Sprinz’s double. In the third Layne doubled and scored on Matty’s single, and after Monahan flied out Russell clubbed his home run, his third in the last three games. After cwo down in the sixth Schupp drew a walk and scored when Layne crashed the sphere out near the flag pole. Herman tried to make home on it but swift fielding cut him down. The Indians, in fourth place, now are at the .500 mark, twelve games behind the leading Blues.

Heavyweight Match in Yankee Stadium May Draw 60,000. OPINION IS DIVIDED Winner to Figure in Title Selection. Bn United Press NEW YORK. June 26.—What will happen when Max Schmeling's mighty right fist connects with Paolino Uzcudun’s iror chin at Yankee Stadium Thursday night? The question gripped the attention of boxing fans throughout the world today. Thursday night’s fifteen-round heavyweight match promised to attract a crowd of more than 60,000 and gate receipts in excess of $600,000. Interest in the match, however, is not confined to this vicinity, as all Europe will be watching. All Germany has its eyes turned toward America for news of Herr Schmeling and Spain anxiously awaits tidings from Paolino, a product of her Basque country. Unless the bout turns out to be a rude disappointment, the winner should figure prominently in the selection of Gene Tunney’s successor. Present plans call for the winner to meet Jack Sharkey in September. Plenty of Wallop Schmeling demonstrated his ring generalship and punching power against Johnny Risko, heretofore famed for his ability to take it, the referee stopping the fight in the ninth round. Schmeling came to this country in May, 1928, and in four bouts here has knocked out Joe Monte (7), Pietro Corri (3), Risko (9) and won a ten-round decision from Joe Sekyra. One of the main concerns of Schmeling's boosters is whether he can stand up against punishment. He has three knockouts recorded against him—two when he was a youngster in 1924 and 1925 and a cue-round k. o. at the hands of Gypsy Daniels, a second-rate Canadian Negro, on Feb. 25 last year. Should Settle Problem If Schmeling can’t take it, this match is almost certain to prove that fact. Paolino is more of a mauler than a knocker-out, but if Schmeling can stand up under the constant, never-wavering attack Basque has shown in his matches against Tom Heeney, Jack Delaney, Harry Wills, Johnny Risko, Otto Von Porat, K. O. Christner, Jack Renault, Knute Hansen and others there will be few who will question the German’s ability to take it. Opinion is well divided over the outcome. Tommy Loughran selects Paolino. Benny Leonard, former lightweight champion, favors Schmeling. Billy Gibson thinks Paolino is too strong and powerful.

Elizabeth Dunn Outclasses Field to Annex Local 36-Hole Tourney City Women’s Champ Shoots 162 in Two-Day Event; Kathryn Abbott Second; Young Piayers Shine.

Women golfers of Indianapolis were wondering today what might be done about dethroning Miss Elizabeth Dunn from the royal chair she appears’ to be occupying unchallenged as champion of the Indianapolis Women's Golf Association. Monday and Tuesday the association played a 36-hole medal

handicap tournament over Broadmoor and Highland links. When scores were tabulated it was learned Miss Dunn held a 19 stroke lead over her nearest competitor, Miss Kathryn 1 Buff ) Abbott. Miss Dunn had 162 for 36 holes and Miss Abbott 181. Not long ago the 181 turned in by Miss Abbott would have won the

what a fighter and a man he was! If Schmeling should be lucky enough to knock Paolino out, the fight fans would go wild over him. But it isn’t in the cards for the German nation to develop a champion in so short a time; it takes years to develop the king pin of the prize ring. Although Paolino is no crackerjack, I pick him to win Thursday because of his experience and the fact he has been in the game longer than Schmeling.

The 86 Miss Dunn scored at Highland Tuesday was with a high cross wind whipping across fairways. Miss Josephine O'Brien, with a net score of 159. two strokes below Miss Dunn's gross score, won the first prize in that division. Mrs. Goethe Link. Mrs. Bernie Lehman and Mrs. Charles Latham all tied for second place with 161. Miss White, who had 160 net, waived her right in that class to take fourth in the low gross division. The other women drew and Mrs. Link got second place, Mrs. Lehman third and Mrs. Latham fourth. Miss Helen Mattice finished fifth with a 164 net.

Shields Sets Golf Pace in District Meet Veteran Star Two Strokes to Good as Final Round Starts. BY DICK MILLER With the final eighteen holes of play in the Indianapolis District Golf Association fifty-four-hole tournament scheduled for today at Broadmoor and with Frank Shields, Meridian Hills and Indianapolis Country Club star, ahead of the field by two strokes, the veteran golfer held an edge believed by many to be enough to carry him to victory. His score for thirty-six holes was 153. However, with Dick Gant, leader at the end of eighteen holes at Highland Monday, in second place with 155 and tied for that honor with Bill Reed Sr., there was a chance that either of the two might slip in a sensational round at Broadmoor today and overtake Shields. Play Tuesday, the second leg of eighteen holes, was held over the difficult Meridian Hills course. With a high wind blowing the scores of most of the entrants mounted over those turned in Monday at Highland. Shields, who had turned in a 78 Monday, came home with a fine 75, while Gant, who had played 75 Monday found trouble and finished with an 80. Bill Heinlein. who had a 76 Monday, finished the first nine at Meridian Hills with a 39 and bid to finish the Tuesday round in another I 39, but found trouble on the seven- ! teenth. A shot into a sand trap, a poor 1 out, a shanked iron shot and three putts gave him an eight and he finished with an 82, which with his 76 of Monday sent him into a tie for fifth place with Bill Diddel. They had 158 each. Jack Tuitte, Highland golfer, who plays consistent golf, shot a 79 Tuesday, which with his 78 of Monday gave him fourth position with 157. Ben Cohee, Meridian Hills player who had a 77 Monday, kept up his work and played an 81 Tuesday that gave nim seventh position. Eddie Zimmer, defending champion, found the going rough Tuesday and the best he could do in his i efforts to overtake the leaders after his 81 of Monday was a 78. and he was in eighth place with 159. Net honors for the 36 holes were held by Dick Gant, who had 141, one stroke ahead of Sammy Simpson, and Chester Jewett, who had 142. Jack Tuitte had 143, E. Cooper Zaring and Ora Harrell, 144, and E. A. Woods, 145. The winner of the tournament will receive the French Lick Springs Hotel trophy, donated by Tom Taggart Jr. It must be won three times for permanant possession.

De Rose made it a real fight and was going all the time. He took too many stiff wallops from Tracy's right hand, however. In the topsix, Harry Memering. Lafayette, was much too clever for Larry Kaufman of Cincinnati, and won easily. Royal Cox planted a terrific righthanu punch on Jack White's whiskers in the first round and the Louisville boy took the full count.
