Schmeling Ruined Many a Good Boxer, Says Manager; Picks Uhlan to Stop Louis Paulino Easy Victim for Detroit Brown Bomber Only Because Max Softened Him in 39 Rounds, McLemore Is Told. BY HENRY M’LEMORE l nlled r*rr. Staff Correspondent MIAMI. Fla , Dec. 25.—Seeking to draw the man out and find his honest opinion on how long he believes Max Schmelling will stay in there with Joe Louis, I took Mr. Joseph Jacobs to a very expensive seafood place the other night and allowed him to buy me a dinner of stone crabs and pompano.

Mellowed by the fine food and my promise to take care of the taxi fare unless we found it quicker to return by trollc,, which w'e did. Mr. Jacobs, between puffs on his vegetarian cigars, gave me what he said was his opinion of the fight. The rough English translation of his remarks is this: His man Schmeling not only will beat Louis, but will beat him so badly that the chances are Joe never will be much of a fighter after June. “And I’m not biased,” Mr. Jacobs declared at the finish of his statement. “Os course not.” I answered. “Os all the six hundred and one fight managers I’ve known, only six hundred and one of them were partial to their fighters.” Max Softens ’Em I p “Okay,” Mr. Jacobs said, “think I'm kidding you if you like. But I'm not. If you’ll just run through the list of fighters Schmeling has ruined, you’ll see what I’m talking about. There’s been half a dozen of them who, after Max finished beaming ’em, never could fight apiin. Take Steve Hamas. He was a pretty fair boy before he came over to Germany to fight Max. He was in the hospital for weeks after thr fight and what’s he done since? Nothing. And he never will. “Before Hamas there was Ncusel. Walter was a tough guy until Max beat his head off. Now he couldn’t lick you. It was the same way with Willie Stribling. He was a great boxer and a hard hitter, but whert my boy finished with him at Cleveland he was done as a fighter. And who did Johnny Risko and Joe Sekyra ever lick after they fought Max?” We started to ask who they ever had licked before, but thought better of it, and asked Joe how he could so bli'hely ignore what Louis did to Paulino—a guy Schmeling never knocked off his feet in 39 rounds of boxing. But Joey Won’t Bet “Schmeling explained that to me very sensibly,” Jacobs answered. “I asked him wha’t he thought of Louis knocking Paulie out so soon, and he said Joe should have done it even sooner, being as how he, Max, had softened the Spaniard ,up. You see, those 39 rounds Max fought with Paulino just ruined the Spaniard. The Paulino who went 15 rounds with Schmeling in Barcelona would have gone 15 with Louis. "The Paulino that Louis knocked dead with that right hand was just a worn out old bird who couldn’t lift his hands. Even so, he clipped Joe with his right a couple of times. And when Schmeling hits him with that straight right of his, it’ll all be over. I think Max'll chill that Louis in seven or eight rounds. Maybe sooner.” “You wouldn't like to bet a hat on that, would you?” I asked. “No,” Jacobs answered, "I don’t gamble.” "Not even on as sure a thing as that?” “No, not even on as sure a thing as that.” We both laughed. Lon (/staff and Bess Billed for Rematch Emmett Longstaff and Young Boss, featherweights, are to square off in a return match at the Bess A. C„ 318 Indiana-av, tomorrow night. The bout is the feature of an amateur boxing program. In a previous meeting. Longstaff won by a narrow margin.

Large Entries Expected in Coming Pin Tourneys Events at St. Philip and Fountain Square Alleys Booked Over Two Week-Ends.

BY BERNARD HARMON TT7ITH most leagues out of ac- * ’ tion because of the holiday season, coming house tournaments are attracting the attention of local tenpin spillcrs. Saturday and Sunday, the ninth annual “Individual Sweepstakes,” an event carrying a guaranteed SSO first place prize, is to be staged at the St. Philip Alleys, 535 Eastern-av. The event, which is a 200 scratch handicap affair, has always proved one of the most popular pin events of the season, and Bill Sargent, manager of the alleys looks forward to a record entry in the 1935 event. Handicaps are figured according to combined averages and four games are rolled by each entrant. Squads are scheduled at 3, 4:30, 6, 7:30 and 9 Saturday afternoon and evening, 10 and 12 Sunday morning and at 1:30, 3, 4:30, 6, 7:30, 9, and 10:30 Sunday afternoon and evening. Entry fee is $2 a man, including bowling charges. Further information may be obtained from Sargent at Cherry 1210. n tt a OSCAR BEHRENS, manager of the Fountain Square Recreation Alleys, has announced that the fifth annual five-man handicap tourney is to be held at the Soutn Side Alleys Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 4 and 5. Rules of this event will be similar to those that have been carried out in other team events during the season, but it will be a 1050 scratch handicap affair instead of the 1000 scratch that has prevailed in other tourneys. Entry fee is $lO a team, bowling charge included, and no entries will be accepted after midnight Tuesday. The Fountain event was the only local alley tournament to pay a S3OO first-place prize last season, and with 61 teams already registered for participation, Behrens expects this amount will be at stake in the coming event. A prize list will be posted on the bulletin board before the start of the tournament and drawings for alleys will be held on deck previous to the starting time of each squad. Further details regarding the popular affair may be obtained from Behrens at Drexei 2150. BOWLERS of the city again responded to the annual Times Clothe-a-Child movement. 22 children benefiting through the generosity of various leagues and individuals. The latest loops to respond to the yuletide fund were the St. Philip No. 1 and No. 2 and the St. Philip Ladies Leagues. The No. 1 and 2 circuits took care of two boys while the feminine pastimers clothed one girl. JANUARY 22 and February 12 will find the fourteen teams of the Indianapolis League getting in plenty of strike and spare action. In order to take care of Christmas and New Year's dates, the loop is scheduled to roll double-headers on those nights. Several other circuits that will miss their weekly fling at the maples during the holiday season are expected to carry out the same plan in order to get in their full season schedules. a tt tt The recent international series between Learbury Clothes of Syracuse. N. Y„ and the Windsor Bowling club of Montreal proved a popular affair in the Canadian city. Duck pins are still popular in Montreal but the recent match drew a large gallery. Syracuse won the series, which was staged by Nap Dorval, proprietor of the Windsor Bowling Hall, where the event was held, and because of the popularity of the affair it is expected to become an annual institution. \ .v V• J{it"•**-'■* ' V--';. . : v I

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Robert H. Bryson, past president and lifetime member of the American Bowling Congress, was reported to be resting comfortably this morning in St. Vincent’s Hospital, following an emergency operation for appendicitis Monday. Bryson, one of the most colorful pin boosters in the country, was largely responsible for bringing the 1936 A. B. C. tournament to the city. His appeal to the annual meeting at Syracuse last March will long be remembered by local pinsters who were present at the meeting. His popularity in the bowling game dates back to the days when the national tournament was in its infancy, and he is well remembered as the man who saved the annual gathering of Congress bowlers when it threatened to collapse in 1902. At this time, with the aid of the late Charles A. Bookwaiter, then mayor, he brought the event to Indianapolis. The 1902 tourney was held in Tomlinson Hall. Mr. Bryson is looking forward to the coming event at the State Fairground Coliseum with pride, as it is expected to be the largest ever staged by the A. B. C. group. His scores of friends are wishing him a speedy recovery and hops to see him back on the firing line of the Insurance League, of which he is a member, in the near future.

FINDS ONE MAN IN NATION WHO CANJLL POST State Employment Agency Obtains Specialized Dog Trainer. Alois Fleming, 37-year-old Ger-man-born dog trainer, who last summer was on relief rolls in Monterey, Cal., today has a job in Rushville, Ind., because the Indiana State Employment Service spared no effort to satisfy a client. This .summer, Ben H. Wilson, operator of the nationally-known Wilsona Kennels at Rushville, attempted to import a German trainer for his Dobermann pinschers, dachshunds and reisenschnauzers. An official of the Immigration Service pointed out that if iherc were jobs available in America, men already in this country should be chosen. Cites Qualifications A little skeptical, Mr. Wilson told Malcolm Kennedy, clearance officer for the state service, the type man he wanted. The applicant must be healthy, have a disposition dogs would like and have been a trainer of dogs in Germany. Because the dogs are trained to answer German commands, the trainer must speak both German and English. He must be strong, because the dogs are taught to fight and attack strangers and the trainer must be able to handle himself in a rough and tumble. After looking at the qualifications Mr. Kennedy, too. was skeptical, but he combed Indiana and found three unemployed dog trainers. They were not Germans, so Mr. Wilson could not use them. Combs Five States Mr. Kennedy then settled down to find the one man in the United States who could handle the job. He wrote pleading letters to public employment services in five states. Applications began to drift in, none satisfactory. Finally Mr. Fleming sent his application from Monterey. Mr. Fleming had trained dogs for 15 years in Germany and five years in California. He had attended a college for two years in Gleiwitz, Germany, was a former soldier in the German army and had at one time earned SBS a week as a die maker in Detroit, He Gets Job He was just the man for Mr. Wilson, who immediatley sent for Mr. Fleming. Currently, Mr. Kennedy is attempting to find a nurse who knows bookkeeping and is a member of a particular Catholic order, for a hotel in Nebraska. ROBERT BRYSON BETTER Former Postmaster Improved After Emergency Operation. Robert H. Bryson, 2431 N. Merid-ian-st, former Indianapolis postmaster, was reported improved today after being taken to St. Vincent’s Hospital Monday for an emergency appendicitis operation.
