YORK, June 15.—A very large man who was very much bewildered and not a little bit frightened, stood on his feet near his own corner and asked the referee to give the heavyweight championship of the world to his opponent. That was the closing chapter in a melodramatic brawl that saw the championship pass from the massive Primo Camera to the gay and ebullient Max Baer last night, after eleven rounds of one-sided savagery in the Garden's openfaced bowl over in Long Island. In many respects it was the most unusual prize fight- in the history of the strange sport. No producer seeking to please all tastes at one and the same time could have purposely staged a more complete menu. There was high drama, low comedy, tense moments, listless stretches, official blunders. And so it seemed quite fitting that the climax should take the form it did, with this giant of a man, weighing 263 \i pounds, motioning feebly to the referee to make that bad, nasty boy from California quit throwing rocks at him. a a a a a a THE setting and the characters oddly paralleled the finish of another fight between a slashing hitter and a ponderous Hercules that was held just fifteen years ago. On that occasion, too. the slashing hitter cut the giant to pieces—and after three rounds the giant sat in his corner, with his head in his hands, and mumbled, “I’m through.” I refer, of course, to Jack Dempsey's victory over the 255-pound Jess Willard at Toledo. Dempsey was at the ringside last night. So was the man who promoted the fight, Ad Thatcher, now the mayor of the city. For a while it even looked as if that wild first round at Toledo, when Willard went down seven times, would be re-enacted. And to all practical purposes it was, because Camera was on his way out before the battle had scarcely begun. Willard had taken a fierce beating up to the time he decided to quit. And that goes double for Camera. If ability to absorb punishment connotes gameness, the very large gentleman had it in quantities. A sprained ankle sustained early in the fight may have had something to do with the champion’s desire to turn his back on the whole vulgar business at the time he did. I have no doubt that it had much to do with the collapsible tendencies he exhibited at intervals. a a a a a a NOBODY should be too severe in criticising the manner in which the Italian surrendered his title. He was most emphatically beaten, his case was hopeless, arid it was just plain common sense to stop. Asa matter of fact I thought the referee should have stopped it the round before. This was when Camera stood against the ropes, thoroughly whipped, and insensible to everything around him. Instead of stopping it the referee, Mr. Arthur Donovan—to my mind still the most capable referee in New York—stepped between Baer and Camera and inquired at some length into the state of the champion’s health, which at that moment was of such a nature as to have frightened off the most adventurous of insurance writers. Possibly Mr. Donovan unconsciously did a very smart thing. If he hadn’t stepped between the two men Baer would have taken another pot shot at the reeling giant and something approaching a fatality might have followed. I admit, of course, that Mr. Donovan might have done a smarter thing consciously by stopping the fight at that instant. Anyway, the incident carried no enduring importance. The only result it had was to give the large gathering of sedentary sadists an extra round of blood-letting. a a a a a a THERE was nothing to the fight but Baer, and I have a suspicion you will be reading many learned pieces in the near future describing the mauling madcap as one of the great heavyweights of all time. And against Camera he looked all of that. How much this was due to Carnera’s astonishing ineptness is, of course, another thing. Camera didn’t look bad; he looked terrible. You will be told that he might have looked better if he hadn't been tagged in the first round, but don’t you believe it. Camera doesn’t belong in the same ring with Baer. The Italian can't hit a lick, that crushing right uppercut of his is a myth, and wherever I got the idea he is hard to hit, I don't know. He is about as hard to hit as a third string Brooklyn pitcher. For the most part, Baer gave you the impression he was merely working out against the big bag in a training camp. He couldn't miss Camera with a right hand, and when he decided to piay for the body the sound effects were remindful of a Wagnerian opera, both for violence and length. Every time I looked up from my notes I saw Camera’s jaw bouncing back from one of Baer’s right hand punches. It soon got to look like an etching from the modern school of stark realism. Camera was on the floor so much that he became what appeared to be a fixed pattern in the white canvas. The critics can t agree on how many times he was down—ten, eleven or twelve. I counted eleven, and I am not much on counting. Overnight the man mountain became a mole hill. And the man who laughed—the clown of the prize ring—laughed himself right into the world championship. Haw, haw, haw!

BAER WINS WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CROWN

Californian Stops Camera in 11th Round by Technical Knockout; Laughs at Italian Primo Goes Down in First Frame; Livermore Larruper Continues to Smash Big Man With Rights for Ten More; Becomes Joyful Demon. BY JOE ALEX MORRIS I'nitrd Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 15.—Max Baer is heavyweight champion of the the world today because he takes a satanical delight in fighting, but boxes only under compulsion. The California fighter's slashing right hand blasted the heavyweight crown off the head of gargantuan Primo Camera of Italy in the eleventh round of their bout at the Madison Square Garden bowl by a technical

Champ Plans Future While Papa Groans Camera’s Former Manager Hears Title Fight From Jail Cell. By United Pres* NEW YORK. June 15.—Max Baer may defend his title in September, he said today, but emphasized that at present he is more concerned with radio and motion picture contracts. "I may fight Steve Hamas or someone else in September,” Baer said, “if I have assurance that such a contest would draw well. But my ring plans are very indefinite right now.” Mother Is No. 1 The champion arose shortly before noon and went up to the roof of his hotel to pose for pictures. He expressed interest in a pretty woman who watched him from a door, bue she darted away before he could learn her name. “Who's the No. 1 woman now?” asked a friend. “My mother,” flipped Baer. “She won't sue pie.” He professed pained surprise that sports writers should consider him a clown. “People don’t understand me,” he explained with mock seriousness. I'm a Jekyl-and-Hyde. Outwardly I laugh. Inwardly I am very serious. What I want to do now is end up with a trust fund and not be one of those guys who get the toy balloon concession in an insane asylum.” Others Are Jubilant The Baer establishment still was jubilant today over the Primo Carnera knockout, although Papa Jacob Baer's enthusiasm was slightly tempered by that morning-after feeling. “If I told you how I felt, you couldn’t put it in the paper,” Papa Baer groaned. “My head felt like it was nailed to the pillow when I woke up. Just celebrating with a little beer, that’s all.” In contrast to the Baer suite was the jail cell of William (Big Bill) Duffy, one of Camera's managers. Duffy, who is serving a fourmonths term for income tax evasion, heard the fight over the radio and, according to other prisoners, took it as hard as the ex-champ hirhself. One prisoner said Duffy was upset because Camera failed to take the count of nine each time he was knocked down. This would have given him additional time to collect his faculties. Jacobs, Palfrey Win Net Matches American Wightman Players Dumfound British. By United Press WIMBLEDON, England, June 15. —Miss Helen Jacobs of Berkeley, Cal., American women’s tennis champion, made short work of Peggy Scriven, English star, to annex the second match of the Wightman cup series today by the one-sided score of 6-1, 6-1. Previously Miss Sarah Palfrey of Boston defeated Miss Dorothy Round of England in a thrilling, hard-fought match at 6-3, 3-6, 8-6. Miss Jacobs made it clear early in the match that she was out to revenge her defeat by Miss Scriven in the French women’s finals recently. The match was hardly a contest. The American champion smothered every shot her opponent offered. The crowd was so stunned and disappointed that it barely applauded her, even when she made the most difficult shots. Helen drew on all branches of her game, mixing chops, fierce drives and punishing volleys. In each of the two sets she swept through the first four games before allowing Miss Scriven to take any.

knockout last night. Asa fight it was unlike anything in championship history. Asa fighter, Baer slugged his way into the records as the most puzzling, exciting and demonically joyful champion of modem times, jlt was sometimes agonizing to his backers, but it was fun to Baer. Baer knocked the first corner off Primo’s crown in the opening round. His snake-like right arm whipped under the champion’s guard; his fist thudded with terrific force against the champion’s heart. Camera’s Grin Fades The broad grin fled from Carnera’s face. Momentarily, his huge torso seemed to heave upward and back. His eyes bulged. His head shook. When Maxie’s glove came away, there was a faint red tinge against the nut-brown of the Italian’s body. Almost any other slugger—A Dempsey, for example—would have ended it a few seconds later when Camera tumbled, almost rolled, to the canvas under a sizzling right to the face. Or a boxer would have cut him to shreds. For the next ten rounds he did almost everything not expected in a champion except that —with studied regularity—he popped his smashing right against Camera's heart or jaw. In those ten rounds: Baer appeared able to end the fight almost any time before the eleventh, but he didn't. Seconds Are Frantic He drove his seconds frantic by periodically taking the best that Primo —a stronger but much clumsier fighter—could send at his chin (and liking it). Thrice he punched the giant half way off his feet and then wrestled with him to the canvas (usually falling on top of him). He stood with guard down, laughing at Camera (but unexpectedly it was Primo who tried to get Baer's goat by talking frequently. Baer didn't wisecrack once). Max danced a foolish little jig. pretending that he was getting more resin on his shoes, then belted Camera on the chin, then put on a skit in which he (Baer) pretended to have a sudden attack of weak knees (the champion didn’t have to pretend right then.) Shows Unique Spirit He got stronger as he chopped away at Camera's huge bulk for round after round (the experts favored Camera’s stamina barring an early knockout). But above all, Baer showed a spirit that was unique in modern champions. He fought with a devilish, incomparable joy. There were onty flashes of the Dempsey savagery in his spirit, although no one but Dempsey at his best could hit harder. There was nothing of the cold, methodical boxing of a Tunney. It was a mood peculiar to the specie Baer; a method that one moment found him crouching low —in response to urging of his seconds—tantalizing Camera into uncovering that long, swollen left cheek and the next found him laughing and wading foolishly into range of Primo’s best punches. Snarls and Swings Again, there was Baer at top fighting speed, swinging savagely. A striking example came in the third. Baer had been half-hearted-ly following instructions to box; to feint Camera open. Suddenly he straightened up. His body became tense. His lips spread in a snarl tightly across his teeth. His eyes narrowed. Snake-like, that lethal right hand shot out against Primo’s jaw. The champion staggered. His trick legs folded slowly, like a tree falling. Baer waded in. The tenseness had left his face, which was contorted into a strained grin—a grin that showed he was putting everything into every blow, but still a grin. He swung at the bleeding champion’s face with all the delight of a gamin hurling mud at a high hat. He turned away laughing as Camera fell. The new champion—something of an expert on how to keep from being bored in Hollywood—also takes his fun where he fights. The Gate By United Press NEW YORK, June 15. The “gate” for the Carnera-Baer fight was announced today by Madison Square Garden as $428,392.80 gross receipts, with 52,268 paid admissions.

Mynster has one of the best records in the light heavy division and will be out to make an impression on his initial visit here. Freddy Kupfer is one of the most aggressive of the “meanies” and the popular Anderson youth, Harry Burrus, will have to be at his best to win over the Swiss bone crusher. Tassos lost to “Lord” Finnegan in his last match here and is anxious to regain the high standing he formerly enjoyed with local fans. Jack Sherry has asked for a bout with the English star and if he disposes of Tassos may be matched with Finnegan.

Tribesmen Rap Birds in Final Tilt of Series Turner Defeats Columbus in Easy Style; V. Sherlock Cleans Sacks. BY EDDIE ASH Times Spoils Editor Featured by a base-cleaning triple by Vincent Sherlock in the first round, the Indians knocked off the Columbus Red Birds at Perry stadium last night, 10 to 2, and earned an even break in the series. Jim Turner, ace righthander of the Tribe, dished out too much poison for the visitors and their hits were few and far between. The Birds got one run in the third frame and one in the last, but in the other innings Turner held the upper hand and performed in big league style as Clarence Rowland, Chicago Cubs scout, watched the melee. Rowland is making frequent trips to Indianapolis and the guess is that he is figuring on buying a member of the Hoosier mound staff. Make Blows Count The Indians collected only eight hits, but made them count, along with a mixture of walks and wild pitches by the Red Bird chucker, Spencer. Cross went to Spencer's aid in the eighth, but the contest was “long gone” by that time. The Indians put the game in tha old bat bag in the first stanza on three walks, a double, triple and a wild pitch. It was in that round that Vincent Sherlock blasted a triple with the bases loaded after his brother, Jack Sherlock, had struck out. It was an odd inning, three Indians going down on strikes as their mates tallied five markers. Two Hits by Turner The Killefierites didn’t rest with the initial inning, however, and scored in the. second, third and three times in the fifth. Turner took an active part in the Tribe attack by driving out-a triple and single. He scored one run and batted in two. There will be no game at the stadium this afternoon or tonight. Tomorrow nigjit the Louisville Colonels will invade the Tribe park with hostilities starting at 8:15. It will be “ladies’ night.” There will be a double-header on Sunday afternoon.
