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.

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.
