Associated Preiu Sport writer
NEW YORK, June 30. (P) Jack
8harky. the temperamental ex-sail-or
from Boston, will defend his heavy
weight championship of the world
agalnat Italy's "man mountain," Prt
mo camera, In a 15-round bout at
Madlaon Square Garden' big battle
bowl on Long bland tonight.
Under the stimulus of hot weather
and the Impetus given the fistic re
vival by the successful Max Bacr-Max
ffehmeltng scrap three weeks ago, a
erowd of some 60.000 la expected to
eram the bowl and pour more than
390,000 Into the coffers of the Gar
den and of the milk fund, which
shares In the receipts.
Many Angles fn Dope .
This disparity In the sleee of the
contestants: Camera's undoubtedly
great Improvement since the Boston
gob handed htm an artistic lacing at
Xbbets field two years ago; Sharkey's
temperament, which has betrayed
him Into costly mistakes In previous
bouts, gave the meeting a flock of
"angles" which still had the faith
ful Jittering around In search of a
favorite today.
Sharkey started out with an edge
In the betting, but the confidence
of Camera's backers pounded the odds
down until the fans were faced with
the unusual situation of having a
champion rated at no better than
even money against the challenger.
Biggest RJngster
Oarnera, the biggest man ever to
fight for the world's title, was ex
pected to tip the scales at 988, just
pounds more than the ohamplon,
at the official welghJng-ln at the of
fices of the New York State atihletlc
commission at 1 p. m., (K. S. T.) to
day. Despite his great bulk and hla
six feet, 7 Inches of height, the "vast
Venetian" Is fast and a clever boxer,
lacking only a real knockout punch.
He has a quick and accurate left Jab
and moves with surprising lightness
on his overalls feet. He Is, however,
shy on ring generalship and unable
to cop with sudden shifts In attack
ing style.
Gob In Good Form
Sharkey, In perfect condition, has
displayed everything he needs to de
fend the crown In his workouts, speed,
snap, confidence and a venomous
punching power that has worked
havoc among hi sparring partners,
m addition there Is the tragic "angle"
or Brnle Schaff's death a few days
after he was knocked out by Camera
last wlnven Although the medical evi
dence revealed that Camera's Jab had
little or nothing to do with SohafCs
death, it gavs him a reputation as a
"killer" and It gave Sharkey, Sohaffs
stablemate, an Incentive to do his
best tonight.
The Bostonlan's age. 91 years, also
seems to have weighed against him
In the minds of the faithful although
the rtng'a records show a doeen or
more heavyweights who had Just
reached their fighting prime at that
ae. Sharkey, a careful liver, proud
of hi reputation as a "family man,'"
and trained to the minute for the
bout should not be troubled by the
weight of his years.
Weather prediction Indicated the
poselblllty of showers today but there
Is little likelihood of a postponement
unless a heavy rain develops. The
first preliminary Is scheduled for 1
p. m , . 8. T.) with the main event
going on between 8:30 and S p. m. or
earner ir the weather become threat'
enlng. There will be no broadcast.

St. Ann's Altar Society will have
