NEW YORK, July 27 (U.

He May Have Had a Concussion * BUT TO WIN the title a fighter must have more than a punch and Franklin's deficiencies couldn't outweigh his power and he soon became a distinct second rater. Very likely he shouldn't have been in the ring. even against this obscurity. the other night. Nevertheless he was doing all right, winning the fight, until he got clipped fn the next to the last round, and it wasn't the first time he had been clipped good in the fight. Anyway, i's still touch and go whether he'll pull through and this points up the futility ‘of a meaical examination before a fight, that .is. as a guarantee against serious or even fatal injury. A fighter who has been banged around the head often is liable to have a lingering concussion and apparently there 1s no way. except in the most obvious cases. for a medical authority to discover the condition, X-ray plates will show a skull fracture; but, if oureunderstanding 1 eorrect,. not..a. concussion... ~Besides, iss pre- fight.

out) recovers in a period of minutes. Inevitably, the Ernie Schaaf tragedy com¥s to mind. Carnera stopped him in round 12. “Fake,” the crowd yelled. Some of the boxing writers thought so, too. This attitude of cynicism was justified by the accompanying circumstances. Most of Carnera's fights were vaudeville acts. Schaaf’s handlers had not studied for the priesthood. Furthermore, Schaaf had scarcely been hit: he went down from an ordinary jab and he was a big, young. strong fellow, = n = " " =
Death Began to Take Charge THE CROWD yelled “fake” but even as it sneered in contempt, death was beginning to take charge of the superbly muscled young giant who had reached out for the middle rope and was trying, almost with theatrical desperation, it must have seemed, to pull himself back on his feet. Two days later when the autopsy was performed it was revealed he had’ gone into the ring with a cone cussion of long standing. The medicos had examined Schaaf before the fight and pronounced him in fighting shape. We were at the weighing-in rituals that afternoon and, certainly the young fellow never: looked more fit, yet in a very positive sense he was an invalid. Five months before he had taken a murderous beating from Max Baer and wis hospitalized for several weeks. As it turned out the seemingly harmless Carnera jab had finished what Baer started. Hindsight testified Schaaf should have quit after the Baer fight but nobody told him to and he was big. young and strong, there was quick money to be made, his handlers were dollarminded, and, after all, the medicos could find nothing wrong with him. Only the coroner was officially outraged. He issued a statement saying Schaaf’s condition was such that he could have ° ‘bumped info a post” with death resulting. But then he had the second and last guess. There are many things that are smelly and revolting in the fight racket and it isn't a high commentary on human behaviorism that #t is one of the country’s vulgar passions. At the same time it is a tough, dangerous profession and the fellow who embraces it with a certain honesty and character is not wholly without adrhirable qualities. Whether it is worth the semi-occasional tragedies, the sightless eyes and the twisted minds is something else. It certainly Wouldn't be in the perfect civilization but . ... Yes, we read that headline: “American losses on Saipan 16,463.”
