Joe Louis K. O. By Schmeling Ring Highlight German Back As Challenger After Surprising Win; New Champs In Three Divisions By LAWTON CARVER International News Service Sports Writer NEW YORK, Dec. 24, (INS)—The year 1936 failed to produce a heavyweight championship defense by JimkJßraddock or a million dollar gate but against the customary background of berserk fans, splashes of blood and inconceivable upsets stands one scene which sets the period apart for pugilistic posterity.

This was the occasion at the Yankee stadium one night in June, when Jee Louis, the super-man, was knocked out by what was supposed to be a doddering old German, who went into the ring an 8 to 1 underdog, unanimously pitied, and left through the thunder of the wildest ovation since the Dempsey era. With his victory that night Max Schmeling came back ip take ranking as the No. 1 challenger for the title he once held and Joe Louis slipped to a place among a sorry crop of contenders. The Detroit negro soon re-established himself to some extend by knocking out the likes of Jack Sharkey, Al Ettore and Jorge Brescia, but he no longer was the Brown Bomber or the Dark Destroyer. Blasts a Myth Schmeling blasted that myth with his knockout in the 12th round of a scheduled 15-round fight and, reSardlees of what may transpire in te immediate future, furnished the outstanding highlight of a boxing year which say the drowning of new champions in three divisions. John Henry Lewis, the Phoenxi, Aris., negro, was among the cham-

Cions who outlasted the year. In fact e is so good and worthy opposition so scarce that they had t give him a brace of Englishmen for two light heavy title defenses. Among those dethroned was Eddie Babe Risko, the Syracuse sailor, who lost his middleweight title on a decision to Freddy Steele, of Tacoma, Wash. Barney Ross, the sleek little dude from Chicago, clung to his welter crown by outpointing Dizzy Izzy, Jannazzo, New York East Sider, and finds among his outstanding rivals of the moment Jimmy McLarnin, the best fighter among the bridegrooms of the year. Released From Jail After Killing Horse Charles Lung, of near Syracuse who is charged with drunken driving, has been released from the county jail under bond of S2OO. Charges against Lung have been filed in the city court. Lung’s auto collided with and killed a horse north of town last week, authorities claim.

Football Sets New Records On All Fronts But No Team Capable of Sewing Up The National Championship Beyond Dispute By PAT ROBINSON International News Service Sports Writer NEW YORK, Dec. 24, (INS) —Football established new alltime highs in all respects along all fronts in 1936. The games were uniformly more colorful, the stars more plentiful, the top-flight teams better balanced, the upsets—socalled—more frequent, and the crowds of record-breaking proportions.

The one fly in the ointment of an otherwise successful campaign was the much-discussed forward pass interference rule which cost Dartmouth a victory over Princeton and paved the way for Navy’s lone touchdown over Army. No team could righfully lay claim to the undisputed national championship. The winner of thq Louisiana State-Santa Clara game New Year’s day may be the answer. But Minnesota and a dozen or more others are so close up that it would be impossible to place them with surness in any fair standing. Standouts Faded Teams that were standouts early in the season faded under the stress of too arduous campaigns. Such a team was Fordham’s. Others were comparatively soft touches early in the season but came along to rank with the best. Tennessee for example. Still others were in-and-outers, worthy to play the best on even

i terms on a given day but far below normal on other days. Such a team was Princeton’s. How could you place them and feel sure you were right? Minnesota beat a powerful Washington team, but fell before Northwestern, which was soundly trounced by Notre Dame, which in urn had been alj most disgraced by Pittsburg, which had been tied by Fordham, which lost to N. Y. U., which was beaten by Ohio State 60 to 0, which was beaten by Northwestern. You could store, up a winter full of headaches trying to untangle that mix-up. The best one can da is try to name he better teams by sections. In the east Pittsburg, Penn, Dartmouth, Yale, Princeton and Fordham probably were the strongest. In the mid-west, Minnesota, Northwestern, Notre Dame and Qhio State held sway.
