new YORK. Jane 31 (API ror
elory. honor and comparatively lit
tle tuh, Max Schmeling and Jack
Bharkey clash In a IS-round heavy
weight championship bout In Long
Island City tonight.'
William F. Carey, president ol
Madison Square Garden, which la
promoting the match In the new
outdoor arena on Long IslBnd; pre
dicts cross receipts. In the. neigh
borhood of $400,000. Even that fig
ure, atasserlns M It It In theae
times, seems trifling when viewed
from the point of view of the million-dollar
"gates'' of the pempsey
era.
Closely Matched.
Plain Mr. right Pan was not par
ticulars lntercsteo In tho gross re'
celpta, beyond deciding how much
he would contribute to them. He
viewed the match as duel of two
closely matched gladiators and the
betting fraternity supported him In
that onlnlon.
The odds continued at 6 to B with
Schmeling a, favorite, although some
betting commissioners were quoting
it to 10 and take your pick. Odds
against a knockout by either man
were 8 to 1.
Both Schmellnj, and Sharkey oame
down from their training camps i"
upper New York state In excellent
condition. Btiarxey naa, oen
more Impressive during the training
grind, but the experts pointed out
that Schmeling never naa ioou
any too good In a gymnasium. He
needs real competition to look his
best. . , ,
Max Improve.
The Teuton has come far since
that June night two years ego when
Sharkey battered him around for
three rounds end then fouled him
Into the championship In the fourth.
Then he was a green, game youngs
ter, a powerful puncher with hla
right band and possessed of all the
stamina In the world.
The Boston tar simply can't afford
to lose. He la getting only 10 per
cent of tho receipts, hardly enough
to pay for his training expenses,
but he wants the title. This may
be his last chance.
Erratic Performer.
' Time after time he has been
knocking at the door to the heavy,
weight throne room only to find It
Closed to him through his own er
ratic performances. Lack of control
cost him several Important matohea
4hd Indifference several others.
;, Although the bowl will seat Tina
persona, not more than 65.000 or 0..

not be that many even though there
are more than 40,000 aeaU at from

The (3 rant Pass baseball team
Which pulled out of thfl Rogue Valley
league because the league directors
refused to take In Crescent City
to fin the place of the withdrawing
Medford Sagles outfit, now faces a
rather embarrassing situation, ao
cording to word from the Climate
City. Last Sunday the Grant pass
nine entertained Crescent City and
won 10 to 8 despite Uie fact that
three of the Cavemen's regulars were
not in the llntup. Only a handful
of fans turned out for the game and
the players are reported dishearten
ed and In a mood to discontinue
their efforts' unless better support is
accorded from the home town peo
ple. Qranta Pas I slated ta play Cres
cent City at the seaside town July
S as part of the celebration there.
Whether the opportunity to play in
Crescent City during the celebration
had anything to do with Grants Paas
quitting the Rogue Valley league, Is
a question which local baseball In

war.
