BAER LAYS SCHAAF COLD AS BELL CLOSES BATTLE By WILLIAM AEEK.ER. (Aswlatrd Press Sport Writer) CHICAOO, Sepf, 1. (U') Max Baer, California's contender for the heetywelght chaniplonthlp of th world, today had a knockout over Ernie Schouf of Boston but It Hill never find Its way Into the record books. After on of the most astonishing finishes seen In any ring, Senear, the protege of Jack Sharkey, world heavy weight tltleholder. was stretched out cold In the Chicago stadium Isst night just a the bell sounded ending their 10-round contest. From the battle Baer salvaged a mere decision victory over the men who hsd bsen regarded a th better of th younger con tender. From the second to the ninth round it had not been so much of a fight. Both boxer, big, powerful fellows, had done their work with such de liberation and atudy that Referee Tommy Thomas warned them to put more spirit Into their efforts- Then, aa the ninth round started and Just after th second warning, Baer plied Into Schaaf with withering assault to the bead. Schaaf had fought his way out of a few similar flurries earlier In the bout, but this time Baer kept firing, mothering th Boston blond's ef fort to fight free. Schaaf waa a tired, bewildered fighter when the round ended. In the tenth Baer clipped Schaaf with ahort, numbing shot to the chin and Jaw with both hand, and Ernle'a legs began to buckle. Two more bruising right landed on Schaaf unprotected Jaw and down he went Just aa th final bell sounded. Nearly five minutes of frantic work by his handlers waa required to bring him to and get him to bis corner. Schaaf, with nine and one-half pound pull In weight, scaling 3091, to 200 for Baer, made the fight most of th way, thumping Baer with both hands to head and body. The Call-1 fornlan, however, took everything and even laughed about It. It was their second meeting, Schaaf having won t decision victory In New York nearly two years ago. partment at Sacramento, when th Oregon moratorium on 1933 licenses waa on a number of local motorists were forced to purchase California plates when motoring In that state.
