Max Angered By Failure to Vacate Title
Man| Who Meets Winner of ~ Chicago Bout Also Faces Suspension. :
By Unit ed Press NEW YORK, June 4—A ruling by the Néw York State Athletic Commission} appeared today fo have thrown the heavyweight situation into the worst muddie it hes been in since Max Schmeling knocked out Joe Louis. The Commission yesterday suspended Champion James J. Braddoek for failing to meet Schmeling. Failure of the body to vacate Braddock’s title left the heavyweight situation extremely doubtful. ,Schmeling, incensed because Braddgck - was allowed to keep the title, ¢aid the Commission’s ruling virtually “legalized” a Braddock“Louis |fitle fight on June 22 in Chicago. Mas didn’t want the Commission to give him the title, but he was hoping that the board would take it fron: Braddock and thus take the edge off the Chicago fight which Bradcock contracted for after he had signed to meet Schmeling.
ill Warning Is Recalled
The Commission warned that any fighter who met Braddock while he was banned in this and affiliated states also would be suspended. Thus Louis, if he fights Braddock, also will stand suspended in New York. That, according to many observers, kills chances for a heawyweight title fight here in September. Most of them had figured the Commission would vacate Braddock’s title; that the winner of the Louis-Brad-dock fight would . be champion in some [states and that to gain a clear clair to the championship all he would have to do would be to fight Schmgling in New York in September. : Novi. there is a possibility of two champions ruling indefinitely. The
-winnei of the Chicago fight logical-
ly wotild contract to meet Schmeling. But if that fight were held outside New York the New York Commission still would not recognize the winner as titleholder and Schemling himself would become
¢ suspended.
The New York body meanwhile might start an elimjnation contest to determine its own champion.

is not anything he can’t do and do better than any champion we have
ever had. He is the first golfer I ever saw who combined terrific power with precise timing from tee to green. He has done something all of us have been trying to do for years. He has simplified the business of hitting a golf ball.” The" impious Mr. Sarazen then went on to say Jone: didn’t have a good golf swing. . “There were

Joe Gets Down to Serious Business
He is
too many hitches in it, too ‘many kinks. This boy has a faultless,
rhythmic swing that describes a per-
fect arc. On top of this he has tremendous power. He's at least 25 yards longer off the tee than Jones ever was and is proportionately longer with his other shots. He's the first golfer I ever saw who didn’t have even a minor weakness.” Mr. Sarazen is not alone in his estimate of the unusual alility of the young man. Sixteen of the finest golfers in the country are here competing in the invitational and practically every one of them looks upon him as something unbelievable. . +. “He'll win the National Open next week at Detroit as sure as you have two ears,” predicted Henry Picard—one of the favorites to win the championship himself.
