Talking It Over

BY JOE WILLIAMS Sport* Editor, New York Telegram NEW YORK. June 13—Old Gus H. ran took another one on the chin up at the Yankee stadium Thursday night, but old Gus has a very tough chin and punishment to him is as sweet and soothing as a melody under a June moon. Old Gus and his crowd paid more than $700,000 to see what was authorized by the local boxing commission as a fifteen-round bout for the heavyweight championship of the world between the erratic Jack Sharkey of Boston and the unskilled Max Schmeling of Germany. mam What old Goa and his mob ultimately ,11 was a rerr one-sided match that came to a bewildering and grotesque climax late in the fourth round with the swarthy skinned young man from aerosa the sea sitting in his chair In the corner bent double with pain following an undeniably low punch by the American-Lithuanian. m m m THUS ANOTHER TREMENDOUS BALLYKOOED HEAVYWEIGHT SPECTACLE BECAME A FRIGHTFUL FIASCO WITH OLD GUS AND HIS MOB ONCE MORE HOLDING THE BAO. AND THE TWO SELFAVOWED GREAT MEN OF THE RING ABSCONDING WITH MOST OF THE SWAO - . W . IN any other form of business this would fit neatly into the classification of felonious misrepresentation and automatically would become a subject of court inquiry, but in this amazing racket called professional prize fighting it becomes just a regrettable occurrence. I had intended to tear off a steaming Journalistic blast demanding complete and absolute repeal of the law under which the racket is operated in New York, working in such powerful phrases as “SharkeySchmeling mess drives last nail in boxing's casket,” but I am afraid it would be merely a waste of space. man TANARUS begin with old Gus rather seems to glory In his role as the world’s greatest sucker and secondly the racket has become a plaything for the politicians since it moved Into the million dollar field. So about the only thing to do I suppose is to Jet It drift along until it smashes against the rocks of public apathy and rebellion. Sorely there must be a limit even to the credulity of the prise fight (lend. man Still, it might not be a bad idea to declare something approaching an indefinite moratorium on heavyweights, and particularly such heavyweights as are disposed to strut as champions and challengers. Almost Invariably they produce a fight that is either an eyeache to watch or a shortchange fraud in effect. m tt * . . . RETURNING to the great international bust of Thursday night. I am firmly convinced that Schmeling was hit low and that the blow carried sufficient power to render him temporarily helpless. To that extent the verdict making him the winner was eminently correct. However, I don’t agree that he showed enough at any time to warrant his being accepted even by such amusingly serious autocrats as the members of the Tunney-Mul-doon trophy committee as a world champion. m m m Indeed the only extenuating thing that can bo said in favor of Sharkey is that he was leading by the length of a giraffe's neck when he fouled out.. A victory for him seemed inevitable and it was my thought that he might have scored a knockout within the next four rounds at the pace he was going. After she first round, which was devoted to conventional cautionary maneuvers and what might be called physical soundings, Schmeling was always behind. mam , , Beginning with the second Tound Sharkey clearly established that he was the stronger of the two by the wav he spun the German around in the clinches, always twirling him to the right in an off-balance position and thus reducing the perils of his opponent's right hand. There was bristling action in the third but it was mostly Sharkey. A left and right at the start made Schmeling blink furiously, and red welts of protest spread over his high cheekbones. a m n A FEW moments later Sharkey scored with a whistling right uppercut and Schmeling’s head snapped back as if it worked on a hinge. A fast following one-two, first a left and then a right, sent the German staggering back on his heels. He looked embarrassed, bewildered, and just a bit apologetic. By now the dark tan pigmentation of his face changed to a duil red and he opened and closed his eyes after the manner of a coal miner emerging suddenly into the sunlight. a a a Sharkey for once was in full control of his faculties and was trying to feint the beleaguered German into an opening for another driving assault, but Schmeling lived up to his reputation as a cool ring general and weathered the crisis, though at the bell he was groggy and even his American supporters in the press box began to admit that he was still year away.” m m m The fourth round, is far as it went, also was pretty much all Sharkey. He was peppering the voung German with rights and lefts and adding to hts lead In a methodical manner as the seconds sped by. The round was almost over. Schmeling. game and durable under punishment, in a fitful outburst of aggressiveness rushed Sharkey to the ropes and for this audacity received In return a drumfire of rights and lefts to the head. mum SUDDENLY Sharkey shifted to the right and as he shifted he struck out w ? ith a left to the body —a left with plenty behind it. This was the left that dropped at least six inches below the German's waist and laid him low. It was the left that won and lost the fight.

COLORFUL CROWD DISAPPOINTED BY FOUL ENDING?

Promised Epic of Ring Becomes Minor Brawl Between German, Lith Crowd of 70,000, Ready for Drama, Voices Disapproval When Low Blow by Sharkey Ends Heavy Title Tilt in Fourth Round. BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 13.—A crowd of 70,000 persons that wedged its way into Yankee Stadium filed out into the darkness Thursday night, complaining that what had promised to be an epic of the prize ring had developed into a minor brawl between a German and a Lithuanian. Never was an audience more ready for drama and never did one make its disappointment so apparent. From the block pf light that marked the tfng the human crator stretched up to the topmost turrets of the stadium. It was a June night, a night more siting for peace and laugher than for blood and blows, and a sky of unclouded blue frowned on strife.

But there in the center of the brightest glare contrived by man Jack Sharkey and Max Schmeling were preparing to wage single combat so that children in some swarming slum might have cool milk in the heat of a summer noon-day. And the crowd responded. Same Blood-Cry Down from the rim of the crater there rolled the same blood-cry that has greeted gladiators everywhere. It was an audience that was waiting impatiently for the crunch of leather against muscle and the spouting of bright crimson from battered noses and torn ears. The gong sounded faintly above the clamor as Schmeling and Sharkey faced off for the battle much as their ancestors in middle Europe may have done centuries ago in a swift, bloody raid across some feudal border. Seven rows back from the green ropes sat Gene Tunney, who walked out of the same ring two years ago an undefeated world champion and a millionaire. His brows met as he strained forward on his wooden chair and his head swayed with the movement of the fighters. Sharkey Carries Flag The spectators roared their glee at even the lightest punches. The hisses that had greeted Sharkey when he entered the ring with an American flag draped around his shoulders changed into a long swell of triumph as Schmeling tapped his opponent on the lip and drew blood. Then came the fourth round. There was a tangle of bodies in the ring and Schmeling writhed on the floor. "That blow was low by three and a half feet,” yelled Tunney. The crowd came out of its seats, stamping and screaming for Schmeling to get up. Was he hurt? Then fan him into consciousness and shove him back into the bout to bleed and suffer for a lost cause. The sum of $700,000 had been paid to see a fight and the curtain was going down before the fourth canto was finished. When Joe Humphhries finally bullied the spectators into silence and shouted to them that Schmeling had won on a foul a dissatisfied growl was mingled with cheers for anew champion. And Tunney and his 69,999 companions began picking their way toward the exists even while Schmeling was still sprawled helpless on the e<|ge of the square of ropes that thfworld for some strange reason calls a ring.

Tribesmen Begin Last Series Before Leaving cn Long Road Jaunt K. C. Blues Will Be Met Tonight, Following Three Wins Over Brewers; Nine-Run Rally Thrills Fans at Thursday’s 9-to-7 Struggle. BY EDDIE ASH Making it three in a row over the Milwaukee Brewers by capturing the series finale Thursday night. 9 to 7, Johnny Corriden’s Indians will take on the Kansas City Blues tonight .'n the first of a four-game set. It is the last group of struggles for the Tribesmen before they hit the road for a long stretch of nearly three weeks. The program with Eddie Zwilling’s pastimers calls for single battles tonight, Saturday night and a double header on Sunday afternoon.

Playing without the services of two mainstay hitters, Clyde Barnhart and Howard Freigau, the Indians staged a spectacular rally in the fourth stanza Thursday evening and scored nine runs as thirteen men went to the plate. Pitcher Buvid spent a painful round that was touched off when Clarence Hoffman-poled a home run over the low fence in the left field corner for the first marker of the game. Rapid Fire Hitting Koenecke and Dorman were retired by Buvid, but Connolly reopened the fireworks with a single, and Monahan, Riddle, Burwell and Wolfe also poked out one-base blows, Warstler doubled, Hoffman, up for the second time, walked, Koenecke singled and Dorman tripled, the third out being made when Connolly skied to Gerken. Aryd the nine runs were needed, for Milwaukee broke loose with a single and homer in the sixth and added four more tallies in the eighth on Monahan's error, singles by Windle and Gerken and a homer by Grimes. Hildebrand Relieves Bill Burwell, pitching with only three days’ rest, weakened after brilliant twirling during the early part of the encounter. In the ninth he was knocked down by Christensen’s hot. shot through the box and his hand was bruised by the whistling sphere. He got Turgeon on a long fly to Dorman, but when Stanton doubled to score Christie, Oral Hildebrand was cal ed in to use his fast bail. Wolfe uncorked a wild heave on Young, but Benton sent up to bat for pitcher Stark, grounded to Warstler, and the Rabbit pounced on it and turned it into a gameending double play. ’ mam WARSTLER and Connolly put on a show for the fans around the keystone sack Thursday by accepting twenty chancss between them without a miscue. In the eighth Warstler scooted back of second neai the grass, snared Stark’s drive and his throw was
