BAER INSTEAD OF"
TAKING A TITLE
FIGHT WITH THE'
AGING SHARKER?
Schmel i rg's pilot-
IF SCHMEUAG LOSES, JOE UU BE THE GOAT!
?4
- " -in i
LOME weeks from now Max
Schmeling will climb through
the ropes into the Yankee
Stadium ring for his much bally
nooed scrap with California's Max
3aer; and accompanying him will
oe a little bright-eyed man with a
long cigar clamped between his
clenched molars.
The little guy with, the ever
present torch protruding from his
nush is, of course, Joe Jacobs, the
stute fistic pilot who steered
schmeling into fame and fdrtune
after luring: him away from his
German manager four years ago.
Now nobody who knows him or
knows about him will deny that
Jacobs knows all the angles in the
intricate fight racket. The sharp
faced Joseph may lack some of the
finesse which the Kearns of Demp
sey's palmy days used to exhibit in
maneuvering the Manassa Mauler
into bouts with assorted bums,
mlddleweights and. invalids, but
just the same Jacobs has heretofore
acquitted himself very creditably in
hia handling of the German's fistic
affairs.
Look over the records. Jacobs
put Schmeling into the pit with
Paulino at a time when he knew
Maxie was a dead cinch to win, as
the Basque's injured left shoulder
was in such a condition as to make
it all but impossible for him to
bother Schmeling with his best
weapon, a left hook.
Then circumstances made it nec
essary to sign Schmeling to meet
Sharkey, with the winner to be rec
ognized as Tunneys successor, and
that put little Joe in a spot, since
at that time Schmeling was far
from ready to be sent in with the
Boston boxing master.
The fight went through, however,
and it was none other than Jacobs
who saved the day for Maxie just
when things looked blackest for the
Berlin Bomber, bchmeling, it will
be remembered, waa absorbing an
awful lathering from the white-
eyed sailor when he suddenly went
down from a sweeping left hook to
the body and would have been
counted out if the foghorn voice of
hia alert pilot hadn't been heard
above the dm shouting the famous
squawk of "Foul I "
Jacobs then refused to let Schme
ling box Sharkey the following
year, preferring to put Max in with
the faint-hearted Stribling, know
ing that the longer Sharkey had to
wait for a return shot, the less
formidable he would be. Joe's well
laid plans failed to can out. how
ever, for Sharkey had enough left
when he finally met the German to
outstab him in 15 dull rounds.
Following this, Jacobs proceeded
to show hia wisdom by matching
Schmeling with the sawed-off. bat
tle-scarred Mickey Walker, and
Schmeling rehabilitated himself as
a puncher by smashing poor little
Mick into the resin.
Now, however, the boys are whis
pering that little Joe has made a
mistake at last. When he-turned
down a. title shot with the aging
Sharkey and matched hia black-
browed puncher with the young,
hard-bitting Baer, all because of a
grievance against, the - Madison
Square Garden outfit, he showed a
willingness to gamble that la hardly
in line with the best managerial
traditions. The California riant
will have a biz advantage in aiza
and weight over Schmeling, and he
is terrific clouter in the bargain.
is wouia do no shocking opset if
he tipped the German over, and
then where would our Joseoh be?
Then a rain, even rrantinv tht
Schmeling gets safely past Baer
suppose Camera licks Sharkey?
Billy Duffy. Pnmo i manager, has
already said that he will not let the
Italian giant fight Schmeling until
the German settles the law suit
that the Camera crowd have filed
against Maxie for running out on
Primo a couple of years ago. And
even if Camera did agree to fight
him, Schmeling would find the skill
ful man-mountain a far more for
midable opponent than-the Sharkey
he lost the title to last year.

Parrish junior . high school's
baseball team moved into . com
manding . position close to the

ship Friday by. defeating Sacred
Heart academy 9 to 2 in the
third game of their aeries. Par
rish still has three games to
play with Leslie junior- high,
but Sacred Heart has beaten the
south en derm twice and Parrish
is figured to do likewise though
an upset is possible.
If It hadn't been for the Gentz
kow boys, Nick Serdotx of Par
rish would have had a "tio-hit
game Friday. Three .of the
Gentskow .brothers : got- a - hit
apiece. - Nick, pitched better . ball
than on the two occasions when
he amassed large strikeout, to
tals, though' he. fanned only 12
this time.: One i run was scored
against Mm - on two errors and
two walks in the fifth, and an
other in the sixth on three free
passes and a hit. The rest of the
time his control was exceptional.
B. Gentskow for Sacred Heart
was almost as effective except
for two bad innings, the third
and ninth.' In the third three
hits, two errors and a hit bats
man provided Parrish with
runs. One of the hits was
two-bagger by Maerz. In the
ninth two Parrish men hit safely
and Gentzkow hit the next two
and then walked one, foreing
in twt runs. Another came In
on a fielder's choice. One rnn
had been scored on two hits in

NEW YORK, May 19. (AP)
A flash of ebony fighting fury
caught Seaman Tom Watson of
I Old England unexpectedly tonight.
bowled him over briefly and sus-
i tained sufficient force to clinch a
15-round victory over the sturdy
Briton for Cuba's Kid Chocolate,
still the featherweight champion
of the world so far as New York
-and probably London are con
cerned.
Before a yelling1 crowd of 12,-
000 that forsook a balmy May eve
ning for the battle pit. contribut
ing to a "gate" of $30,000, Choc
olate rallied from a poor start to
carry off the unanimous decision
of Referee Pete Hartley and the
two judges. The Cuban Kid, on
the Associated Press score-sheet,
carried off eight rounds and won
decisively. Watson, game to the
finish, was credited with five
i rounds while two were even.
Most of the drama of the fight.
hard and somewhat bitterly fought
most of the way, was packed into
the 10th round when Chocolate at
the peak of his decisive rally
floored Watson with a looping left
hand to the Jaw. Seaman Tom al
most turned a compete somersault
from the combined force of the
blow and his own frantic efforts
to escape Chocolate's furious, two-
fisted rush, but he refused to take
advantage of a long count and
bobbed np after two strokes of the
timekeeper's mallet.

the fifth inning and let the In

Senators Friday, George showed
bow he does it.
The Senators have a neat wire
netting put up for automobiles, so
fans who so prefer may sit in their
cars and watch the game. This
year the netting is reliforced with
boards at the bottom, so that no
overthrows and laul balls will roll
under it, and anions other things,
this innovation will make it more
like a leal ball park, with a limit
on me aistance overthrows may
travel.

T propoeea sales tax is un
just, unsound and unnecessary.
Otto K. Paulas, Marlon county
legislator, told the Woodburn
chamber of commerce this week.
Paulus maintained the tax would
reduce the tax burdens of those
best able to pay and increase the
tax burdens of those' who- most
needed relief. He asserted the
farmer would pay a producers
tax on what he sella and a con
sumer's tax. en what he buys.
."To Illustrate what I mean." he i
said, "let us take for example my
brothers who are operating a
cannery in ' Salem. They would
have to pay a tax of $6000 a year.
They can't absorb this themselves.
because they are not operating at
a profit as it la. They can't pais
It on to the consumer in the east.
for they are in competition wtin
canning ' plants . In atatea where :
there Is no sales tax. Their only;
chance. If they are to operate at
all. la to pass it on to the pro
