His Activities Add Mystery "To Bout Feud
‘Garden Sharing Expense, ‘Mac Wonders What It's All About.
By HENRY M'LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 18.—Out of the night that was 50 below a golden bigeon appeared, circled twice in precise squares, and then shrilled that the. population of Libera was run little deer, run little deer, and daisies never- tell.
That's Insane stuff, you say. You're right—it is. ‘And I mean it to be because the subject of today’s ‘essay makes just as little sense, adds up just as poorly, and I thought I needed a little practice In goofiness before. tackling it. I refer to the mad business of Max Schmeling setting up a training camp in the wilds of upper New York State and seriously going about preparations for a fight that won't come off. As I get the story—-and I had the family psychiatrist listen in on another wire.as a c leck—Schmeling Is in Speculator, N. Y., boxing six Or seven: rounds a day with sparring partners, galloping miles over the roads, assaulting oaks and elms with an ax, and in general leading the life of a muscular Thoreau to ready himself for Jimmy Braddock on the night of June 3. Schmeling knows as well as the rest of us that there isn’t a chance of his fighting Braddock on June 3. He knows that Braddock at that time will be in the Midwest preparing for Joe Louis, and that |

Appeal Taken
‘By Garden in Braddock Suit
Judge Fake Consents to Promoter’s Request to Seek Rehearing.
By United Press 2 NEWARK, N. J, May 18—The Madison Square Garden Corp. today won the right to seek an immediate review of the decision through which it lost an application for an injunction which would have prevented Heavyweight Champion James J. Braddock from meeting Joe Louis in Chicago before meeting Max Schmeling in New York. Federal Judge Guy L. Fake signed assent to the appeal which will allow the Garden corporation to go before the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia Monday and ask ‘for a new hearing, ‘On May 14 Judge Fake refused to grant a temporary injunction which would have had the effect of requiring Braddock to defend his title against Schmeling before meeting Louis. Arguments will be heard before three judges of the court sitting in Philadelphia on ‘May 26. James D. Carpenter, Jersey City, attorney for the Garden, came here today to ask the court ‘to hear his appeal. The Garden claims it has a prior contract with Braddock to fight Max Schmeling on June 3.

Drivers Guests - For Mat Show
Auto race pilots, headed by Wild Bill Cummings, will have an opportunity to compare their own trade with that of the grunt and groan business, when they witness the all-heavyweight wrestling card at the Armory tonight. They will be guests of Matchmaker Lloyd Carter, a “red hot” race fan. Cummings and a group of “the boys” who hope to gain high honors on Memorial Day, will take in the matches which get under way at ‘8:30 o'clock. Cummings is a dyed-in-the-wool grappling fan. Heading tonight’s mat program is Otto Kuss, 222, former Indiana University wrestling star, and Juan Humberto, 219, Mexico City, who has gone unbeaten here in seven starts. Kuss has been campaigning throughout the South. The “Red Devil,” who is not revealing his identity, goes against Gene Bowman, 212, Kansas City, while Hans Schnable, 220, New York, opposes Oki Shikina, 205, Japan. Shikina and the “Red Devil” make their first local appearance tonight.

Bob Pastor - Bout Delayed
Go With Nestell Changed to May 28.
By United Press LOS ANGELES, May 18.—All interested parties conceded today that Bob Nestell and Bob Pastor of New York will box the 10-round: main event of an outdoor program at Wrigley Field, and that they will do it May 28 instead of May 24 as scheduled originally. - Agreement to the delay was reached after the loudest and longest State Athletic Commission hearing held in this city, and after Gus Wilson and James J. Johnston Jr., the managers, backed down from original statements that if each did not get his way the bout was off. Wilson walked into the meeting with Nestell yesterday, displayed an inch-long gash on the young California heavyweight’s right eyelid, and asked a week postponement on grounds the wound was too serious to heal by May 24. Johnston glanced at the eye and opined that Nestell was afraid to fight. For three hours managers, fighters and commissioners bargained. Chairman Harry Martin finally announced the bout would be postponed four days until May 28. His decision pleased neither party. Wilson insisted he would not gamble. Nestell's future on a bout

before June 1. Johnston, in rich Brooklynese, retorted that unless the bout went on ‘as planned, he would pack off to New York rather than throw Pastor off an artisically geared training program.
Pastor once again announced that “I am really a slugger.” “Disregard the Louis bout. I was a boxer then, but really I'm a slugger and I'll knock out Nestell first time I see his .chin, the eye won’t matter.”
