haberdashery, his high-powered cars
and good times than he did about
his fistic technique.
Tho stories of Boer's eccentrici
ties outside the ring made good
copy, for a while, but his equally
erratic work In the ring soon left
the customers as well as the ex
fluenced by necessity or real anv
perta somewhat cold. - Whether In
bltlon, he apparently has settled
down to do some earnest scrap
ping. Until some one . comes along,
however, to prove . otherwise, the
conclusion Is Inescapable that
Schmellng is the best heavyweight
In the rlne today. He lost the world
championship to Jack Sharkey on a
highly questionable decision.
Even the pro-Sharkey element
conceded Schmellng was on the up
grade and Sharkey decidedly on the
down. Tne margin 01 superiority
