BY S FIST (Continued iron rage One.) fore the fight wu halted, shortest r-eavy weight title match In history. Taken To Hospital In his dressing room after the fight. Schmellng still was suffering severe pslns In the back. He was taken by taxi to the hospital, walking In under his own power. After a preliminary examination, however, he was placed In a wheel-chair a.nd then put to bed. The German was occupying a prt vate room In the hospital but was held Incommunicado to all b' his doctor, nurses and his managerlnl staff. Scores of newspapermen and photographers were at the scene but couldn't even get close to Schmellng, Meanwhile Promoter Mike Jacobs delayed his plans for having Louis sign to defend the championship again In September against Max Baer, former title-holder. Mike first wants to get Baer under a long-term con tract in order to keep his hold on the leading heavyweights. Under original plans. Louts and Baer wore to have signed at a New York state athletic commission meet' lng today. This meeting now has been called off. Jacobs said he expected to have Baer In line "In two or three days Joe Jacobs. Schmellng's American representative, and Max Machon, his trainer and close personal friend, were early visitors at the hospital. German In Pain Joe Jacnha said hn hnrl tnton Schmellng to tfte hospital shortly af ter midnight. He said the beaten Oer. man challenger had been In constant pain during the long X-ray examina tion. Machon revealed that he had called Anny Ondra , Schmellng's actress wife, via trans-Atlantic phone, early this morning to tell her that Max waa In the hospital. Jacobs said that one of Chancellor Adolf Hitler's aldex had called Max from Germany, asked him about his condition and told him "not to worry." There had been considerable ad vance speculation as to Just what at titude official Germany would adopt In the event Schmellng was beaten by a negro. Although Joe Jacobs Intimated his belief that the punch that crippled Schmellng was a foul blow, there was little support for that contention from competent observers. There waa no doubt that the punch landed In the region of the kidneys "minor" foul in the New York state commission's rule book but there likewise was no doubt that a sudden twist of Schmellng's body at the same moment caused the punch to land In the back. To Fight Baer Today there isn't a man left to truly debate the 24-year old Alabama negro's crown he won last aummer from Jim Braddoek. He probably will be matched to fight Max Baer in September, but laat night when the laughing Bier was Introduced he encountered one of the most whole-hearted boos that ever echoed through the Bronx. A terrible right to the kidneys that caused Schmellng to scream with pain and that partially paralyzed hts 32- year old legs gave Lou la the revenue he had sought ever since the Ger man knocked him out In 12 rounds two summers ago. A-oia SDrinA Mew ou TRUE LAGER! HOP GOLD'S THREE FILL ' MONTHS AGLVG INSURES TRUE LAGER FLAVOR c r Three other smoking Louis rights to the Jaw dumped Bchmeltng on the canvas. The third time he was down on his hands and knees trying vainly to rise. Referee Donovan stopped the slaughter. But It was the right to the body, delivered with every ounce of Joe's strength after about a minute of mixing, that settled the Issue, Schmellng still groaned from the pain of the blow In his dressing room as he explained to the German am bassador, Helnrlch Dleckhoff, what had happened. His left eye was swol len almost shut. He said his head had been clear right to the lart, out the rlngslders thought he looked dazed. Towel Trown Max Machon, Schmellng's trainer. threw in a towel when the count over the third knockdown had reached five. "I saw the man couldn't more. so what could I do?" he asked later. Donovan first threw the towel from the ring, then turned and quickly lifted the struggling Max to his feet The count by then had reached eight. After a few minutes In his corner. Schmellng walked across to his con qurer, shook his hand and mumbled "You are a good fighter." It must have been a bitter thin;? for the proud ex-champlon to say. He had been completely confident that he would tear Louis apart again with his right fist and take the title back to Germany. There wasn't a flicker of doubt on his face as they entered the ring. In the fury of the champion's it tack, Schmellng scarcely had a chance to use his one great weapon. He was caught cold, despite the fact that Louis had been proclaiming for weeks his Intention of forcing the fight, So busy was Max warding off hli tan pursuer that he threw only two rights. The first was In close, during, a mlx-up at the outset, and did no harm. The second he shot In desper ation, after he had been hurt. The crowd saw It go and there wns a brief, sharp cheer, but it was high on Joe's cheek and the champ paid no attention to It. The moment the bell rang It was all too evident that Louis meant busi ness. He went right across after Schmellng. pumping punches, and giving Max no chance to stand his ground. Schmellng's face was red af ter the first flurry. Right To Head His back still was against the ropis when Louis suddenly brought over a right to the head that turned the German half around, and followed it with hla blast to trie kidneys. It draped Schmellng over the ropes ami his yelp of anguish was heard across the ring. The referee shielded him for several seconds before he continued Louis charged in and banged him on the chin with another right. Down he went for a three-count, his mouth bloody and his face twisted. He bare ly waa up before Joe clipped him again. This time, clearly confused, he bounced up at the count of one. Now Louis made sure of his kill. As the tottering Teuton stood there. his guard barely up. Joe measured him carefully and sent a terrific right to his chin. Max fell straight forward, hla face nearly striking tfto floor. In that Instant hla dream of being the first man to raatn the heavyweight championship ended. The sheer brutality of Louis' asst. if. t must not have been lost on Baer. who sat in a rlngaide chair. Though he may sign today to fight the negro, It is doubtful Max believes down in his heart he can win. He took a bnd htn-, lng from Louis before, and Joe is a far better man now. As for Schmellng, his future clearly; Is all behind him. He said he would ; like to fight Louis again, but the odds are long that he never will get the chance. He Is returning to Germany Juiy l 10 receive whatever sort of re- ception awaits him. J4T. 1 , , . ' I S. .M-i, "i.ij . J .r fin TT'S ")'" 'hat HopGold is 1 true "j'C l(H A heer. The words.

He knows they will. However, to furnish the nth degree of Incentive to the ring full of gals to alap each other around with the ultimate vigor, he has scaled the pay : off according to the time they spend In the arena. In other words, the first mlas out of the ring will icat less money for her activity than will the second lady eliminated, and the third out wilt receive more "sugar" for her appearance than will the sec ond lassie taking the count. The last two remaining in the ring, naturally, wjll be paid the lion's share of the purse. And. they will return after the battle royal to meet In personal combat, one fall to a finish. Maestro Llllard believes this finan cial arrangement will help produce a free-for-all the likes of which has never been seen anywhere.
