Baer, after tearing Camera to pieces, was awarded a technical knockout in the 11th ronna ana annexed the world's championship. "Trrlbl" Ted Thy, 303 pounil mutar muol mangier from Portland, thould have kept tew more trlults to blnuelf when he showed hU for mer pupil, "BrooooU" Bob Kline, 310 sounds, how to wrestle yeara ago, for one-half minute after the gong eent the two together for the second atan ra 'of their first real bout staged at the armory last night, Pupil Kruse pinned hi, former mentor to the cau ra with a double Nelson to win the match, 1n two tralht falls. The 'Broccoli King" took: the first fall with a Boston crab In 17 minutes. Thye went after his former pupil from the first gong with no dose ra tion, and Jounced him about the ring with shoulder butts, slugging and kicking for the first fifteen min utes. Kruse appealed to Referee By Friable to show his old master a few ring manners, but took the situation over for himself and ended hostilities with the orab hold after putting Ted out the ropes and exchanging several punianmg Deadlocks. He showed more strength than his former teacher, and was able to take everything Xruso could dish out. They came together fast for the second fall, and went away with the student's hand In the air just as the crowd was getting Interested. Louie Miller, grappling wildcat from San Francisco, couldn't control his desire to choke 01) lot Little Wolf, colorful Navajo Indian matnuui from Colorado, and lost the first match or the double bill to the Chief when Friable gave the throttled Indian the third and deciding fall In one min ute. Millar applied a Boston crab 17 minutes after the match started to take the first fall after punishing the Indian matman with slugging and keeping him at bay with toe hold Little Wolf worked his way Into the spectacular "Death lock" for the aeo ond fall, after Miller had broken the deadly hold once by pulling himself through the ropes. The Indian works slowly for the hold and waits for the time to come when hla opponent ap plies a leg split. Then he maneuver his foot around hla adversary's leg pounds him down to the mat, raises to full stature and has his foe .t mercy. When Little Wolf got the "death lock" last night, Frlsble was forced to break the hold to save Mil ler from too much punishment.

Twice In this round and twice more, In the eleventh, the toppling tower of Italy went down under crushing blows. Absolutely dazed, his face a blotchy red from tne terriilc pounding he had received and his features dis torted In grotesque bewilderment, Camera was led stumbling from the ring after the most severe beating any heavyweight champion has ab sorbed since Jack Dempsey pounded Jess wiuard into a bloody pulp in three rounds at Toledo In 1019. History repeated Itself In this re spect as the 310-pound Baer. spot ting his giant foe more than 60 pounds, proved that a devastating punch can wipe out any and all physical barriers or handicaps,' and Dempsey, the old "Man Mauler." was one of the flrat to rush Into the ring to slap the broad back of his California protege. Spectacular Battle For the thrills of savage conflict and the bellowing roar of the crowd for the "kill," Baer's stunning vic tory surpossea anything that has happened among heavyweights since Dempsey knocked out Lula Angel Firpo of the Argentine In two spec tacular rounda at the Polo Orounda In 1023. For two rounda last night there was more blistering action then a whole carload of heavyweight bouts have produced In the last half dozen years and the crowd accorded an ova tion to the handsome, carelessly con fident youth who has given pugilism another bone-crushing puncher to get excited about. The Callfornlan's lopsided mastery of the giant who has stalked through the heavyweight ranks, his powers, still something of a mystery until they were left scattered all over the premises last night, furnished the climax to one of the most extraordi nary of all heavyweight title matches. Declared unfit to fight by one of New York's boxing commissioners. Bill Brown, only a week ago, Baer not only enjoyed the last big laugh but convincingly demonstrated that tho "wise money" knew where It was going when a belated flood of wager ing sent the challenger Into the ring a 6-to-S shot to capture the cham pionship. Camera Game Only Camera's gameness under the heaviest tire of hla career, together with Baer's tactics In merely stalk ing his big opponent until such times as he chose to turn loose his belt ing fury, kept the flgbt from ending In short order. Whether because he was somewhat arm-weary from his opening three-round aasault or be cause he decided to take his time and give the crowd a run for Its money as he strutted his fanciest atuff , Baer relaxed hla attack for the better part of the next four rounda. There wu never much queatton about the outcome after the flrat few slashing right banders bowled Camera off his feet. Although the big .man continually did nearly all the leading, while Baer backed slow ly away or alde-atepped with the ease of a dancer, there was no time when Prlmo's stlffest left Jabs or fal tering right hand uppercuta caused Baer to do anything but make a de risive face. Max Shows Off Max alternately grinned and glared. stuck out his tongue In boyish con tempt and twitted bis giant rival. He flecked off Camera's Jabs like a man swatting harmless flies. He did every thing but the tango as he circled or slipped away from the Italian. Once, when his footing seemed slippery, Max deliberately went over to Car nera's corner und busily scraped hla ahoea In the resin before resuming the fight. Camera at none of the stages when he was being most severely battered took the advantage of a long count. Only four times out of the eleven oc casions when he recoiled and hit the floor from Baer's punches did the time keeper even have time to swing his mallet. There was a count of two for the first knockdown, another for only one second In the third, and two short oounts, lasting two and four seconds, In the tenth round. The bell at the end of the tenth In terrupted the four-second knock down, which might have been the last If there had been time enough to count the giant out. He was clearly at the end of hla rope in this session, which found even the referee confused as to Just what he intended to do, while Prlmo stood helpless, blood pouring from hla nose and lips, in Baer's corner. Prlmo Out on Feet Camera's two trlpa to the floor In the eleventh and final round were more from hla own weakness and unsteadiness than from any greater force In Baer's lunges or punches. He sprawled once along the ropes after being slugged with a right hsnder and he went down In the middle of the ring soon afterwards from a half- push and half-punch. Altogether, It wu one of the most amaalng performances ever witnessed In a championship bout, alternately comic with Beer's clowning and tragla far the reeling giant who was try. Ing to ward off the inevitable with the last vestiges of his physicsi equip. ment. All that Camera had left was his bulk, and It was slowly being beaten Itno Insensibility at the tin. Ish. The Associated Press score sheet of the fight gave Baer only six of the eleven rounds, with four going to Camera and one rated even, but even this didn't mean much on the basis of whst happened In the ring whenever the challenger started blast ing operations. Max won the first three rounda, the fifth and the laat two, along with the flgbt, by so wide a margin that It left no room for argument. Camera was given the fourth, seventh and ninth purely on points, as he took the aggressive and Jabbed his derlalve opponent. Low Blow Claimed The eighth was officially credited to Csrnera by the referee's action In penalising Baer for bitting low with a left hook to the body, al though Camera absorbed terrific pun ishment and furnished a comic touch by sprawling headlong to the floor, like a ball player sliding Into home plate, as he lunged for his side-stepping foe. The sixth round was called even. After the fight, Camera exhibited a swollen right ankle, which ha sprained In one of hla tumbles to the canvas In the flrat round and which hla handlera declared slowed blm up as the fight progressed. He had a swelling on the left side of hie fses where most of Baer's vicious right banders connected. Hla nose and mouth were cut and bruised and his body blotchy red from the thud ding of Beer's blows. The gross gate receipts of 1438, 393.80 msrked the biggest "gate since the Sharkey-Schmeling fight la 1930 and marked another big upturn for the fight Industry, with a new champion ready to seek fresh social and theatrical conquests aa well as greater fistic laurels.
