By Joe Williams Baer Made to Order for Schmeling a m m But Joe Ticks Californian to Win man German Best on Form—What of It

jM’EW YORK, June B.—“ Who do you like—Baer or Schmeling?” Without any too great regard for the softer nuances of English, this question is thrown at the sports writer. For some incredible reason he is expected to know lor a certainty. B B B - Grayson says this, Igoe says that, Cross says something else. They ought to know. They’ve been out to the training camps, they have seen the fighters work, they have talked with them. Meantime, the betting odds are established. They may be 8 to 5, 9 to 5 or 2 to 1. This in itself reflects uncertainty. If there was no uncertainty there would be no odds. Only the totally insane bet against sure things. How much about a big fight does the sports writer really know? As a trained observer and a student of form and past performances, he probably knows more than anybody else. Certainly as much. If it were possible to forecast results on this academic basis, he never would be wrong But of course this isn’t passible. 808 1 WOULD like to go for Baer in this fight, because of his yo*th, his personality and his utter disrespect for the conventions. Besides he is big enough, strong enough and game enough to be a great heavyweight. Like J P. Morgan, he's got everything. He has a fine right hand, a better than fair left hand and he always is on the aggressive. Conceding his formidability, how do I know that this is going to be enough to offset. Schmeling's greater experience, his demonstrated coolness and his short, jolting punches? The number of men you knock out isn’t important. The point to coasider is the quality of their toughness. And evpn this is not always a reliable guide. If you burn candles at the altar of form, you must go for Schmeling. According to the book. Baer is made to order for him. At every surging charge, Schmeling should be able to block, sidestep and counter. A continuous repetition of this is not calculated to add to the gayety and buoyancy of the Californian. Before very long he is liable to have become quite melancholy with it all. BUB AND yet if it were possible to figure all fights by the book, even the most casual follower of the business would soon be elevated to the si at us of a super-authority. The technical formula is so simple as to be fool-proof. The moth in the ermine is that the formula doesn't always work At best, the average is not higher than 50 per cent. Babe Ruth has demonstrated that science and strategy no longer mean anything in baseball. A mighty lunge, a crashing sound, a ball soaring over the garden wall—and you can take all your inside baseball, all your delicately shaded stratagems and toss them into the ash can. There never was a master mind that a home run in a pinch couldn’t make look stupid. b a a ANY sports writer who pretends that he can tell you for a certainty who is going to win a big fight is either kidding himself or his readers But take it from the old sport, yours truly, a man up a tree, this guy Baer can’t lose tonight.

Heavyweight Boxing on Trial for Life Tonight; Mac Picks German

BY lIENRY M'LKMORE, I'nitpd Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June B. Heavyweight prize-fighting will be on trial for its life tonight and the courtroom will be a 24x24 ring pitched over second base in the Yankee Stadium. The judges will be some 70.000 assorted citizens from all over the country. The chief witnesses will be Max Schmehng of Germany and Max Baer of California. The verdict is up to them. If these two boys go out there and indulge in one ol those you-touch-me-and-then-I’ll-totch-you daisy chains, boxing is going to get a sock on the button which, if it doesn't prove fatal, will leave the game punch drunk for the next five years. The customers who will sit in on tonight’s festivities will be there expecting one thing —a mean, tough, ornery, hard-bitten-bout in which both parties concerned actually fight. If they get It, you may look for the fight business, particularly the big money heavyweight end of it, to come to town, as the purists put it. If they don't, you may sit back and watch the game slip three notches below bowling on the green anjl field hockey as a money maker.

Pirates Bow to Cubs for % V Seventh Loss in Eight Tilts

Hi Viiitcd J’reti NEW YORK, June B.—What's wrong with the Pittsburgh Pirates? Those Buccaneers who boomed through most or tne early season with their Jolly Roger nailed to the peak of the National League mast have walked the plank seven times in heir last eight contests. Their batters are afflicted with “soatterit is.” their fielders have “fumbleitis" their pitchers are on parade. Pittsburgh is getting plenty of hits—seventy-six m eight games. But they were so scattery that they resulted in only twenty-eight runs, while opposing clubs converted eighty-two hits into forty-nine tallies. Pirate outfielders booted twelve chances while rival players made only one. No Corsair pitcher went the route, twenty-one parading to the mound against eleven opposing flingers. The Pirates lost their third game in four starts against Chicago Wednesday. 7 to 2. The Cubs bunched twelve nrts off four pitchers for bursts of four runs in the second and three In the sixth inning. Bill Jurges’ homer with a mate aboard featured tne first rally.

ON paper, tonight’s bout looks like the most promising thing since Dempsey and Firpo. That is, it’s a natural. There hasn’t been a heavyweight like Baer around for a long time. Big, wild, handsome and mean, he loves to fight. He craves dealing it out and lie craves taking it. Unless he crosses everybody tonight, he will answer the first bell swinging from his spikes and continue this none too subtle strategy until something drops. Just what will drop, and when, is a problem. Our guess is that it will be Baer. But other critics think it will be Schmeling. We like Schmeling because its always safer to play form than a hunch. We know what Schmeling can and will do. We don’t think Baer will ever score a clean smash to the whiskers with that right hand of his. The German fought Sharkey, the best boxer in the business, for fifteen rounds a year ago and didn’t get clipped cleanly once. If Sharkey couldn't nail Schmeling, why should Baer? Furthermore, w e wouldn’t be at all surprised if Schmeling doesn’t hit fully as hard as Baer. That right hand he throws in close is a wicked, wicked number, and his uppercut and drive to the heart from the same side, are almost as lethal.

Boston’s Braves downed the Phillies, 3 to 1, when Jumbo Elliott blew up in the seventh anud eighth frames, allowing three tallies. Chicago’s White Sox replaced Washington at second place in the American League by beating St. Louis, 4 to 1. Al Simmons’s home run gave Chicago its first tally in the second frame. Irving Hadley allowed Chicago nine hits two more than Milt Gaston yielded. • A heavy windstorm and darkness broke up the game between Washington and Philadelphia with the Senators leading, 14 to 13, in the tenth, the score reverting to a 13-13 deadlock. The Athletics made sixteen safeties and the Senators eleven. Detroit beat Cleveland, 3 to 1, with three tallies off Oral Hildebrand in the sixth. Marvin Owen contributed a four-bagger.

BY STUART CAMERON L'nited Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, June B.—The age-old lust for combat and the magic name of Jack Dempsey will chaw some 70,000 persons into Yankee stadium tonight to watch Max Schmeling and Max Baer battle for fifteen rounds or less. Dempsey, promoting his first big-time show, has been likened to the late Tex Rickard of million-dollar-gate fame. A traditional Rickard break in the weather would establish the old Manassa Mauler as the ace promoter of the present day, for a fair afternoon and early evening would virtually assure a sellout of the 70.000 seats. Hope for clear weather was enhanced when a bright sun broke through the morning haze. The weather continued warm but was less humid. A sellout would allow Dempsey, Schmeling, Baer and the Cancer hospital to split a fortune of nearly $400,000. Advance sales were estimated to have approached the $175,000 mark, but this was only a guess. ’ —■ Schmeling, who won the cham- j

ooiiuieiiiig, wno won tne cnampionship “sitting down” on a foul blow from Jack Sharkey, and who lost it to the same man two years later, motored to town today from his Lake Swannanoa (N. J.) comatry club retreat, Schmeling Is Favorite He remained a firm 2 to 1 betting favorite, and the odds in his favor were expected to lengthen to 3 to 1 by fight time. Betting was light. Baer had preceded Schmeling by one day. He motored Wednesday from his camp at Atlantic City to the home of an anonymous friend. Schmeling made temporary quarters at the Commodore hotel. The principals were to weigh in at the boxing commission office at 2p. m. Baer had a sarcastic speech ready for Schmeling, but few believed he would remember to deliver it. The fight itself promises to be infighting on the part of Schmeling, against Baer’s long-range slugging. Baer Has Weight Edge Baer, who will weigh better than 210 pounds to Schmeling’s 190, is a slugger who doesn’t mind leaving himself wide open while swinging from his shoelaces. Baer also has the longer reach and the more rugged physique. But Schmeling is nearly as strong, is more intelligent, and can box better than Baer four ways from the deuce. Dempsey reiterated today his orginal announcement that there would be no broadcast. Scalpers were reaping a rich harvest. They were asking $35 for $11.50 tickets calling for seats within the first ten rows, and S2O for seats farther back. And they were getting it. Ens Suspended for Ump Run-In By Times Special NEW YORK. June B.—Jewel Ens, who is managing the Cincinnati Reds during the illness of Ownie Bush, has been suspended indefinitely because of the run-in with Umpire George Barr during Tuesday’s stormy game with the Cardinals at Cincinnati. The sentence is indefinite and John Heydler, league president, was to decide today whether to keep Ens out or substitute a heavy fine. Carter Delays Grappling Bill Postponement of the Hercules A.

Carter had planned to match Joe Stecher, former world’s heavyweight mat king, with Jim McMillen. exUniversity of Illinois grid star, but McMillen refused the bout, according to Carter. Efforts to obtain another suitable opponent for Stecher failed. The next Hercules A. C. card will be staged either June 19 or 20, at a place to be announced later.

Buell, Talbot Tied in District Golf Event; Play-Off Is June 16

BY DICK MILLER After learning what he had to do and then doing it, young Phil Talbot, Bloomington amateur, battled his way into a tie for tha Indianapolis District Golf Association annual flfty-four-hole championship in the windup sixteen holes of play at Broadmoor Wednesday and will tackle veteran Max Buell. Highland club champion, for the title in an eighteen-hole playoff on Friday afternoon, June 16. Each of these sterling linksmeu finished the three rounds of chain-* pionship play with gross totals of 229. Buell had 76 at Avalon Monday, 77 at the Country club Tuesday, and finished with a 76 at Broadmoor, while Talbot had 79 at Avalon, 76 at the I. C. C. and 74 at Broadmoor. Two strokes behind were young John McGuire. Coffin star, and George (Dead-Eye Putter) Denny with totals of 231 each, Denny's total being particularly brilliant when it is considered he fired par 72 Wednesday and his three-round card shows a five-stroke reduction each day. He was 82 at Avalon

Bissonette Slips Out AFTER many years of service in the big leagues. Del Bissonette is going back to the minors. The veteran first baseman, who was out all last season with a leg injury, was traded by Brooklyn to Baltimore of the International League WeGnesday.

Monday, 77 at the I. C. C. Tuesday and 72 Wednesday. On the first nine holes Wednesday he used only eight putts, chipping in one shot. Dave Mitchell, who led the field at the thirty-six-hole mark, saw his game go to wreck Wednesday with a miserable 82. and he dropped out of the fight. Talbott was two strokes behind Buell when they left the first tee Wednesday. When he reached the halfway mark, he learned Buell aiready was in with 229 total. He knew he must do the back nine in one under par to tie and two under par to win. Phil got himself a couple of pars | on ten and eleven and then saw some of his hopes go glimmering with a 6 on the twelfth, where par is 5. He came back with a birdie on the next hole and he still was in i the thick of the fight. Each hole found him unable to 1 get the birdie needed as he pared fourteen, fifteen and sixteeen On the 481-yard seventeenth. Talbot dropped a good-sized putt for the birdie 4. He poked out a beauty! drive on the eighteenth, stepped into a perfect iron shot and then

walked up to a twelve-foot putt, but couldn’t get it down for the birdie. He had played it carefully, though, and it was a sate par 4 and r he tie. First and third places will be decided in the June 16 playoff Buell and Talbot battling for the crown and Denny and McGuire for third. Mitchell’s 234 was good for fifth place, with Mike Polak of Coffin sixth on 235 and Johnny Williams of I. C. C seventh, with 236. C. Jacobson of Coffin was the unofficial net winner with 211, one stroke better than Walter Chapman of Coffin and Jimmy Hamblen of Willow Brook.
