SHARKEY SCRAP
WITH TEUTON
ATTRACTS FEW
New York. June 21 M For glory,
honor and comparatively little cash.
Max Schmellng and Jack Sharkey
clash In a 15-round heavyweight
championship bout In Lond Island
City tonight.
William P. Carey, president ol
Madison Square Garden which is
promoting the match In the new
outdoor arena on Long Island, pre
dicts gross receipts in the neighbor,
hood of $400,000. Even that figure,
staggering as it Is In these times,
seems trifling when viewed from the
point of view of the million-dollar
"gates" of the Dempsey era.
Plain Mr. Fight Fan was not par
ticularly interested In the gross re
ceipts beyond deciding how much
he would contribute to them. He
viewed the match as a duel of two
closely matched gladiators and the
betting fraternity supported him In
that opinion. The odds continued at
6 to 5 with Schmellng a favorite al
though some betting commissioners
were quoting 11 to 10 and ta.e your
pick. Odds against a knockout by
either man were 3 to 1.
Both Schmellng and Sharkey
came down from their training
camps In upper New York state in
excellent condition. Sharkey has
been the more impressive during the
training grind but the experts point
ed out that Schmellng never has
looked any too good In a gymnasi
um. He needs real competition to
look his best.
The Teuton has come far since
that June night two years ago when
Sharkey battered him around for
three rounds and then fouled him
into the championship in the fourth.
Then he was a green, game young
ster, a powerful puncher with his
right hand and possessed of all the
stamina in the world.
Now he is a champion In fact as
well as name, a punishing hitter
with either hand, a much more elu
sive target than he used to be, and
stiU gifted with amazing endurance.
He stunned some of the experts
with his masterly performance with
Young Stribllng last year In his first
title defense, cutting down the rug
ged Georgian In the 15th and final
round.
But if Schmellng Is spurred on not
so much by a desire to retuln his
title as to achieve vindication for
his sonjuwhat Inglorious victory In
1930. there is desperation behind
Sharkey's challenge.
A broadcast of the Schmeltng
Sharkey fight is scheduled for the
National chain some time between
and 7 o'clock pacific standard
time.

scraps for place position In Pough
