SOX FILLS JINX ROLE
8 8 8
HORNTON LEE of the White Sox was credited with another victory over the Yankees Saturday, his fourth over the champions this season. . . . The former Cleveland southpaw has become the chief pitching tormentor . of the world champions. . . . Last year, when with Cleveland, Lee won only three games all season and lost five, and the Yankees belted him for one of those defeats. . .. Which makes him a brand new jinx to Joe McCarthy's club. . . . Lee has beaten no other team this year and his record is four won and two lost. . . . Thornton’s success against the Yankees is paralleled by that of Clyde Shoun, Cub lefthander, against the Giants. . . . Young Shoun has turned back the Terrymen on three occasions this year.

old for a fighter. Dempsey was 31 when he lost his championship. Jim Corbett was the same age when Bob Fitzsimmons stopped him. Some defending champions have been older, some younger, when they were
blown from their thrones. The mean average is about 31. At this age time begins to run out on the champion. He is on the down grade physically and can't hope to stand off the inevitable much longer. It may or may hot be significant that Braddock already has reached this peak.’ ”
Dempsey Picks Braddock
Just the same quite a few persons It is not tthat these persons like Braddock more; they happen to like Louis less. One of these is Dempsey, who is
here traveling incognito as a newspaperman. Dempsey picks the champion to win the fight, possibly by a knockout. In a way this is a surprise. Punchers usually string with punchers. Louis is the puncher in this fight. Dempsey was a great puncher in his day. Yet he picks Braddock, who rode to the championship over Max Baer on the feathery twitching of a left jab. “Louis is a pretty good fighter until you hit him,” says Dempsey. “Once he is hit he becomes an amateur. - He doesn’t know what to do. Max Schmeling proved that. I've always maintained Louis was punch shy and the chances are he is more punch shy now than he ever was. Schmeling gave him a brutal beating. It was the kind of beating that did him no good. It may be he hasn't fully recovered from that beating yet.”
Dangerous Trick
I asked Dempsey if he thought it would be good strategy for Braddock to walk out and try to pop Louis the first second in the fight. That's what Tunney did to Dempsey at Philadelphia—smashed him right between the eyes as soon as
the bell had sounded. Dempsey never fully regained his ring composure that night. “That's always a good trick if answered the old man mauler. “It might be very dangerous against Louis, especially if he happens to be alert. “Louis is a great counter puncher. He hits faster than Braddock. If he saw the punch coming and struck back with a solid shot he might end the fight right then and there.” The possibility of an early knockout by Louis is freely admitted, even ky Braddock. In Dempsey’s opinion this possibility would become a strong probability if Braddock came out swinging. He thinks the champion should begin cautiously, maneuver around until he gets accustomed to actual fighting again and then go to work on Louis.
Louis Fails to Sparkle
“Braddock can afford to do this better than Louis,” added Dempsey. “He has the mental capacity to take advantage of different situations and he has a more flexible fighting style. Louis is strictly a puncher. When he has to think his way through a situation he becomes confused. The longer the fight goes the better Braddock’s chances figure to be. If he can survive the first three or four rounds I think he will take complete charge of the fight.” "Dempsey’s observations are scarcely startling. The popular helief is that Louis must win early by a knockout or be beaten. It suggests the quaint old expert policy of fence straddling but it would seem to be the only sensible way to figure the fight: Louis to win by an early knockout if he is to win, and Braddock to get better the longer the fight goes. Personally I know of no other way to figure it. Louis looked unbelievably slovenly in his final workout a! Kenosha, Wis., yesterday. He was an open mark for right hand punches. Once he covered up and backed into the ropes. Two hired spar mates whose names mean nothing in the beakbusting business outpointed him. The official camp explanation was that Louis hadn't wanted to work out in the first place, and was merely going through the motions.
