MAX SGHMELING IS ‘SQUARE GUY GOLFPROVES IT World’s Champion Boxer Is likable Chap, Unspoiled % By Fame. ■V BY BOYD GURLEY, ltltor Os The Time, ' HUNCH LICK, Ind., April 28. V the way a man plays golf is a VHt of character, as many golfers lacfcet, then put It down that Max Bettmcllng will attempt no fouls for the purpose of winning and will use hia head If the going is bad. Asa golfer, it so happens that Hula an editor and the editor of the Times a pugilist. Asa human being, Schmellng Is Ukable, friendly, guileless, and unaffected by his eminence as a world champion. <! TRe placed hU racial thrift In the hands of his manager, and takes a r*l delight in signing his name to photographs for the boy guests at hl resort who follow him with much more curiosity than they will tfte Governors who come a few weeks hence. Women guests generally receive their signatures via hi* press agent. Golf Is Max's Routine If you happen to know your Berlin, you are admitted to his confluence. Thus it happened that the editor of The Times was invited to 9**7 golf, for that is Schmeling’s routine while here. Golf, if you call It that, in the morning and golf In the afternoon. ’’ Perhaps he is homesick, a little, e at least that is the impression that he gives as his eyes light up •t mention of the Linden. In his Post -war pride he tells you that Berlin Is growing, that now it has Store than four and a half millions e< residents and that things will he better. The champion was too young to feel the hates of war. He Is young enough now to look only to the future and he believes In his country •nd its people. Fights His Way Out ' the description of the golf game would not be Interesting, except for this. When In the rough—and you will find him there Schmeling keeps fighting his way out. He fights the ball every minute. That may account for his score. , Put he counts all the strokes. .! He does not try to chop down the ‘•practice” swings. He is elated at the one good shot. He never admits defeat until the last hole. Schmellng may be a Neanderthal a>an. but he is a boy, a very likable boy, a simple boy untouched by RUB*.

RID of your dread of pain after eating. Eat without fear of ‘indigestion,” sour stomach, disagreable gas or headaches. When your food ferments, “disagrees,” lies like a lump in your stomach, it’s a sign of too much acid. You need not resort to crude methods—take instead an anti-acid that will correct the condition.

‘LEGS’ DIAMOND SINKING; LITTLE HOPE IS HELD Hangs Grimly to Waning Life as Cops Hunt Five Gunmen. CATSKILL, N. Y., April 29. While Jack (Legs) Diamond held grimly to a waning life today, state and county officials pushed a relentless search for five gunmen believed to have shot him down. Physicians at the Albany hospital held little hope for recovery of the New York gang leader from shotgun wounds received at the Aratoga Inn, near Cairo, Sunday night. Diamond was in a coma most of the night and his condition grew worse steadily. He slept with the aid of opiates. Dr. T. M. Holmes said a blood transfusion or an emergency operation would be performed if Diamond rallied. Diamond already was in a weakened condition from wounds inflicted by enemy gangsters six months ago at the Hotel Monticello, New York, and doctors fear pneumonia may develop. Meanwhile, Attorney - General John J. Bennett, who obtained a speedy indictment against Diamond’s chief henchman and jailed four others of his confederates Tuesday, continued his drive to rid Greene county of gangsters. State troopers were making a wide search for five men who abandoned an armed automobile a short distance from the place where Diamond was shot down. They have enlisted the aid of New York detectives in their hunt. The automobile was a veritable arsenal. On the rear seat were two sawed-off shotguns, two pistols with two-inch barrels, termed by the underworld as “those new murder guns,” two other pistols, and a pair of ice picks sharpened to needle points.

‘KILLER’ BURKE STARTS TERM ‘l’m Glad It’s Over.’ He Tells Prison Guards. By United Press MARQUETTE, Mich., April 29. Convict No. 5293—otherwise known as Fred Burke, professional ma-chine-gun killer—today started the first twenty-four hours of a life sentence in Marquette state penitentiary. Burke—who pleaded guilty in St. Joseph Monday to the murder of a policeman—was “dressed in” shortly

1 I after 7 p. m. Tuesday night, after officers had brought him here on a [SOO-mile automobile trip. He must spend at least the next | ten or twelve years of his life behind the walls of the branch prison, known* as one of the bleakest penitentiaries in the country. With good behavior, he will be eligible for parole in twelve to fifteen years. "I’m glad It’s all over.” he told his guards as the long trip neared its end and the walls of the prison were seen ahead. “I’m terribly sorry for everything—not that I have to serve my time, I don’t mean that; but I’m sorry I killed that boy.” Burke shot patrolman Charles Skelly off the running board of his car in 1928, as the young officer was trying to settle a traffic argument between the intoxicated Burke and another motorist.
