Final Odds May Favor Camera in Battle With Champ Thursday TREND TOWARD SURPRISES ALL Even Bookies Mystified By Rush Of Money On Italian In Fifteen Round Bout For Jack Sharkey's Title. tiUIII 1U.1LB.N8 The 15-round Bharkey-Ceroere heavyweight title bout wlU oe described blow by blow orr the Mill Tribune's loudspesker In front of the newspsper office on North Fir street Thuredsy evening beginning about 8:30 local time. Southern Oregon fan aro Invited to be preeant and hear the report ae It ! received over Aaeoclated Press leaeed wires direct to the Mall Tribune. There will be no radio hookup from the rlngalde, It la announced by the promotera. By HERBERT W. BARKER Associated Preu Sports Writer NEW YORK, June 28 For the flrat time In boxing history, a heavy weight champion may enter the ting ahort-ender in the betting when Jack Sharkey due's under the ropea In Madison Square Oarden'a Long taland bowl tomorrow night for nla 19-round title defense agalnat Frlmo Camera. Today champion Jack waa a bare 1 to 1 choice with eome quotation aa low aa 11 to 10 and there were atrong Indication camera would be no worae than an even money bet, and perhaps a alight favorite, by fight time. Just what has caused the rush of money on the mammoth Italian's chances had even the book-makers mystified, but It seemed possible Oar nera'a knockout victory over Ill-fated Ernie Schaaf, as well ss Sharkey's In activity, may have played an Import ant part. Schaaf, knocked out In the ISth round of his match with ear ners, at the Oarden Feb. 10. died of inflammation of the brain four days later. The outcome of that match, ap parently, has led the customers to teg Camera a dangerous puncher. As a matter of fact there baa been nothing in the big Italian's previous bouts with first-class heavywelghta to Indicate any such thing. Sharkey himself had few, If any, uncomfort able moments when he outpointed Frlmo at Bbbeta field two yeara ago and a long list of other heavyweights, including King Lcvlnsky, Jimmy Ma loney, Paulino Uscudun. Stanley por dea. Hana Blrkle, Larry Oelns and Art Lasky havs traveled the full ten round route against him. Oalna. For dea and Maloney all hold declalon over him at that distance. On of face of things, the trend to ward Camera hardly seems Justified. Sharkey has trained faithfully and well. No longer quite as fast aa ne waa a few yeara ago, the Boston aall or nevertheless still Is one of the world's smartest glove-swlngers, a durable hard-punching veteran who, on his good nights, Is all but unbeat able. Sharkey la forced to concede Car nera tremendoua physical advantages 80 pounds In weight, many lnchea In height and reach but he has beat en the Italian before and probably la fully convinced he can repeat. The opening preliminary on the card la scheduled for 7 p. m. (B. 8. T.) with the main bout between 8:30 and p. m. HOW THEY STAim By the Associated Press Southern Oregon League Coqullle Roaeburg .. K.

But the welfhti and meanurea icere almoat Identical 20 months ago. when "Little Jack" gara Prlmo a plastering. Hf flnyl Talbot (Associated Press Sports Wrltar) NEW YORK (AP) You'll have to go back a long way In fight history to find a heavyweight championship match to compare with the Sharkey Carnera shindig In Ita btsarre char acteristics. In some way It's fantastic, this re turn meeting between the cold-eyed sailor and the mammoth, alow-wltted fellow who onoe was a circus atrong boy. It has more angles than a fut uristic landscape. Twenty month ago Sharkey gave Camera an unmerciful beating at KbbeU Field, knocking the btg Ital ian flat early In the evening and then making a picture puuUa of his features. Might Be Even Money Xf you war among thoae who aat at the ringside that night It would be difficult to realise the same pair are about to meet again for the world title. But they are, and thla time the odds on Jack Bharkey, aa champion, are shorter than they were In the first scrap I if one may credit all he bears, It will be close to an even money proposition by the time they enter the ring at Long Island Bowl Thursday night. If big Prlmo should win, he will be the first flstlcuffer in modern heavyweight history to take the title from a man who previously had dealt him a lacing. Another unusual sopect lies in the fact that Sharkey, In the first de fense of his crown, faces the giant who a few montha ago caused, cither directly or Indirectly, the death or his friend and stablemete, Ernie Schaaf. Known aa Sharkey's 'cop per.' Schaaf never recovered con sclousnena after collapsing under Car nera 'a blows. How will Prlmo conduct himself In his first fight after thst tragic epi sode? Will he throw those greet fists of his quite as hard and will the memory of Schaaf add fury to Sharkey's attack? The background of the challenger, particularly his ring history, la gro tesque. Few who saw him perform on his first clrcus-llke tour of this country a few years ago could have pictured him aa a heavyweight men ace In I&33. Changes Wrought By Time Then he was nothing more or leas than the latest, the funniest "for elg nthreat," He traveled all about, meeting carefully selected opponents and knocking them ever so cold. Some of his antagonists scarcely waited to be hit, In fact, and var ious boxing commissions scratched Prlmo from their list of Intimates. Yet today "Big Boy" aa he Is called by the more Imaginative critics, en Joys the very best of standing in boxing's select circles, and where ha couldn't box a lick In his , salad days now Is recognised aa a pretty cagy customer with his dukes. He la about to fight one of the game's cleverest workmen, and many smart persons think he will win. It doesn't make sense, but It's so.
