Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK. June 21. —The rumblings of old Professor William Muldoon to the contrary, the New York boxing commission has gone on record as accepting Herr Max Leiderkranz Schmeling as the heavyweight champion of the works —which was about the only sporting thing it could do. Three times the good old professor who learned about sportsmanship from the wrestlers back in the evasive eighties tried to withhold recognition from the German novice who was fouled to fame by the erratic Bharkey. u n n Th* third time Muldoon mnmhlrd somrthirr about the rommtsion for the uacplr to hnm the championship be- - addlnc that the commission should not accept Srhmclint * the people’* choice bect-use he I* a champion nnworthr of the nane. Whether Schmclint la a rhampion or atrletlr a ioad of Weatphallan ham do* not cancern me parllcularlT at the moment. ana What does interest me Is the professor s etraight-Dan crack that the commission is In there swinelna for th* people. Well, let’s see about that. Just what has the commission, the most powerful and influential body of its kind in America, done for the people? What’s that? Yes. that’s so. they made the bovs in the ring wear different colored panties. This was done. I imaelne. on the theory that the contrastine colors would make it easier for the reteree to tell who was winning. nan 1 DIDN'T hear you? Oh. yes, the mouthpieces. Pardon me, folks. The fact had escaped my memory, but the commission is responsible lor those frightful locking red gadge s, shaped like boot heels the boys jam into their mouths a second before the gong sounds. This reform was Inspired by humanitarian reasons. It enables the boys to -akc twice as much punishment around the head as they otherwise might. nan A standard attire for referees was adopted and authorized consisting of fashionable mildewed grays. This was at once a revolutionary and progressive step and ■was generally acclaimed. "It definitely takes be manly art of self-defense out of the rolled neck sweater class," the commission explained. can And what else has the commission done for the people—the good cld people? Off hand I recalle such striking and vital innovations as. (Aißarrlng the water bucket from the corner. (XX-2: Banning the towel as a token of aurrender. (JJJ)Censoring the language of the seconds. (BVD)Oiling announcer Joe Humphreys’ tonsils, and — (gif (Encouraging carol singing by pinkfaced youngsters between rounds. eon BUT what hasn't the commission done for the people? Ah, Felix, now you have hit on something that Is something. Let’s take the recent Sharkey-Schmeling thing—figuratively. I hasten to add. and only for a brief period. What did Mr. Muldoon and his two associates, the Messrs. Farley and Phelan, do for the people in that one? The answer is simple, easy and positive. Absolutely nothing. a a a And what did they do for the two fighters, who were getting most of the money out of a charity treasury, who needed no particular protection themselves and upon whose conduct hinged the success or failure of the event? Again the answer Js easy. The commission did everything the fighters demanded, and at least two of the things they demanded were not only contrary to the laws of the game but were tremendous concessions that placed a premium on fraud, and openly invited Just such a public swindling as ultimately developed. non There is a law in New York that a fighter who fouls is to be paid on a pro rata basis for the number of rounds he fought. For instance if the fight is scheduled to go fifteen and he fouls in the fourth he is to be paid only for the number of rounds he was in the ring. For the Sharkev-Schmellng fight this law was coiirenlentlv waived. Why? The bovs wouldn’t fight unless it was. It was put In the books to protect the people. But when the showdown came the commission decided to protect the fighters. nun AS if this wasn't enough the commission at the suggestion cf the fighters inserted in effect this extraordinary and altogether amazing clause in the contracts . . . “no matter what happens in the course of the fight each fighter is to be paid the full amount of his purse." st a a Will Mr. Muldoon kindly tell me what he means when he says the commission is acting for the people? And will somebody else tell me what, if any. purpose a boxing commission serves, snd why we should continue to have them inflicted on us?

Max Offers Return Tilt to Sharkey Champ Will Defend Crown If Four Conditions Are Met. BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 20.—Possibility of a return bout between Max Schmeling and Jack Sharkey today depended upon Arthur Bulow, Jack Sharkey and the National Broadcasting Company. Schmeling agreed Friday to defend his title in September if the following conditions are met: Schmeling must be released from any further obligations toward his repudiated manager, Arthur Bulow. Sharkey must agree to give Schmeling a return bout next summer, in event the Bostonian wins the title. Graham McNamee, National Broadcasting Company announcer, must not be permitted to broadcast the fight, nor any other fight in which Max engages. Joe Jacobs must be recognized as Schmeling’s manager by the New York state athletic commission and Madison Square Garden. Other conditions were not made puDlic but Frank Bruen, vicepresident of the Garden in charge of boxing, intimated that they were not insurmountable. Both the Garden and Sharkey previously had volunteered to buy off Bulow's clair s and Sharkey has agreed to accept the challenger’s share of 12% pm cent of the receipts, leaving Schmeling the 37% per cent customarily awarded the champion. Jacobs and Schmeling were dissatisfied with the broadcast of the Sharkey-Schmeling bout, June 12, The public, which paid $750,000 to witness the last Sharkey-Schmeling fiasco, are given no assurance of protection in Schmeling’s demands, but Sharkey has announced that he will refuse to accept a victory on a foul. He also suggested that “foul checks’’ be attached to tickets, and said that if he committed a foul he would pay all expenses for staging the bout over again on the following night, free of charge, to ticket holders. Vice-President Bruen said he felt assured conditions submitted by Schmeling would be easily met and that he expected to stage the bout at Yankee stadium, Sept. 18 or 25.

Jonnard Hit Hard; Triple Play Made by Brewers

Bu Timex Special MILWAUKEE, June 21.—Claude Jonnard, former local favorite, essayed to pitch for Johnny Corriden’s Indians here Friday in the series windup with the Brewers and the rangy veteran got a bad pasting before Lee Daney relieved him in the fifth, and Daney also was bombarded. The score was 11 to 3, giving the home nine three victories in the four tilts. Bill Burwell was the lone Hoosier hurler to beat the Cream City pastimers. It was “ladies’ day” and about 4,000 fans, including the free customers, were thrilled by a triple play executed by the Brewers in the fifth. With Warstler on second and Hoffman on first, the hit-and-run was flashed and Koenecke connected for a low line drive to left center. The runners were on their way when Christensen made a spectacular shoestring catch, threw to Turgeon at second for a double play before Warstler could get back, and Turgeon turned and tagged Hoffman for the third out. The Indian center fielder was guilty of bad base running by taking too much for granted on the drive. Anyway it was a triple killing. The Indians’ lead of two runs in the opening liming was short-lived, for the Brewers came back in their half with three. Grimes getting a homer and Jenkins a triple. And the home nine never relinquished the advantage and kept adding to it while Rosy Ryan held the Tribesmen to one more marker. Five Brewers scored in the big fifth. Bruce Campbell, new outfielder with the Tribe, went hitless for the second day. Bud Connolly got a double to extend his consecutive hitting to ninteen games, tying the early season streak of Rabbit Warstler.

Johnny crashed in as titlist here Friday by out-distancing a field of eighty by four strokes, after seven-ty-two holes of play. His nearest competitor was Neal Mclntyre, Highland, Indianapolis, who relinquished the title he first won in 1927, and again captured in 1929, having lost to Guy Paulson of Ft. Wayne, at French Lick in 1928. One stroke behind Mclntyre came Ralph Stonehouse of Coffin, Indianapolis. Stonehouse was runner-up last year. Watson fired a total score of 281 for the seventy-two holes, which is an average of 70% strokes per round. Par for each round is 72. His score is a record of the fifteenth annual Indiana opens and is much lower than had been anticipated. Watson shot a 69, three under par, on his first round of eighteen holes Thursday morning. He came right back with another under par round of 71 Thursday afternoon to reach the half-way mark of thirty-six holes with a total of 140. He tied for the lead with Mslntyre and Stonehouse. In the first half of the final thirty-six holes played Friday morning, in which the three low scorers of the first day played together, Watson did not do so w r ell. After turning the first nine in par 35 he weakened on the second nine, threeputted a couple of greens and went one over par with a 73 for the round. Mclntyre, with a 70, led Watson by two strokes and Stonehouse by two strokes. Stonehouse had a 72. In the afternoon Friday Watson picked up those three strokes on Mclntyre during the first nine, nine, which he made in 33. Mac took a 35, one over par, and Stonehouse dropped three strokes behind them by taking 37. Mclntyre had trouble with the traps. He was nt hitting his long shots straight when aiming at the greens from tees. He hit a tree and did some remarkable recovering from bad positions to escape one over par. He haa to get a birde on the ninth. Watso nmissed the green on one hole, but scored three birdies to come in two under par. The strain seemed to affect McIntyre when Watson ran down a long putt for a birdie on ten and then came back with another long putt for a birdie on 12. Watson really settled the match on the fourteenth. He was behind a bunker in the rough and hit an' iron shot that barely cleared the bunkers and stayed in the rough. He came out beautifully to get to the green with an iron. Mclntyre, trying for a birdie, drove from the rough and was behind some tree’s. He finally took a 6. On the short fifteenth Watson shot his tee shot dead to the pin and got a birdie 2. He seemed set to finish in 4’s, which are par. This would make him 280, an even average of 70 per round. A little excited on the eighteenth, Johnny took an extra putt. Mclntyre came home in 39, three over pfer, which was his worst’ round of the tournament.
