He came west several weeks ago to fight Charier Belsnger, gave ' awsy 11 pounds and lost to the hard hitting Canadian by a close bade. Then he went to Port land, was matched with the re juvenated Walter Cleghorn and fought a tea round slashing draw In one side of a double main rent. "You should hare seen that fight," enthused Blckerstatf who was.' In Portland at the time. "Cleghorn. who has stopped drinking, was sbout four bun dred per cent better then when ha waa Klamath and these toys sura put up a real scrap.

' Paoer Praises White i "There are many In the Trl- Cities who believe and their be lief Is sincere that Kayo wnite deserved the decision. ft men tact is a tribute to this fighting negro probably the most con sistently pleasing boxer the tans here ever saw. He is not Jock Malone, V Toffy Griffiths. Dave Bhade or a Mickey Walter, but he has one big thing to his credit: He has never given a displeasing fight here. That's some record, because he has ap peared at " the . Coliseum many times." . So that's the kind ot a boy Gene faces next Tuesday night, a tighter that has met the best of tham and knows all the tricks, of the flstle trade. But the, lion hearted youngster from Rogue River valley wbo has yet to lose a battle and who fights hardest. Is working like a trojan hardest. Is working like trojan to put on the greatest fight ot his career. He knows that a victory or even a draw would be the making of his fistic ambi tion. Naturally, he will go in to the ring with the dope agslnst him but his superb condition coupled Trlth an ability to give and take might bring one of the most sensational ring upsets of ths year. Advantages ' ' As a matter tot fact, O'Orady will probably have a few advant ages. First he will outweigh the Chicago negro considerably; sec end he Is the underdog and it is axiomatic that the underdog, it he has any gumption, fights best against odds and third he Is used to the high altitude which may take the sting from the black boy's blows. . " Depend on one thing: O'Grady Will be one desperate fighter when he faces the negro. Quite likely he will attempt to make It a slugging match, realising that ths negro's superior skill would mean his undoing If it developed into a boxing bee. Gene la a favorite with the Klamath fans and it is probable that a Urge crowd will turn out not only to see the negro show his wares- but to root for O'Orady during the biggest tight of his career. BIN TAKES BEATING FROM GERMAN HEAVY BROWNS MOV E TO 2N0 PLAGE; YANKS LICKED Max Schmeling Has Span iard Nearly Out on His Feet in Last Rounds. (By ALLAN J. GOULD ) (Associated Press Sporu Writer) NEW YORK. June II. (AP) Just before the start ot the 15th and last round ot the slug test between Max Schmeling and Paollno I'acudun, Referee Arthur Donovan looked anxiously at the bloody battered face ot the Span iard and asked: "Are you all right, can you go ont" Paollno snorted between bruised and swollen features, shook his head In a vigorous nod and leaped back Into the fray, much as a gored bull toward the matador. Last night, Schmeling, the sharpshooter ot Berlin, was the matador, spearing and wounding the Spaniard. After a slow be ginning, with eight ot nine maul ing monotonous rounds that drew continual derision from a crow ot 46.000 spectators, Schmeling opened a slashing attack that shook the celebrated oak ot the Pyrenees, even though it failed to cut htm down. Paollno' head was bloody but unbowed right up to the final charge, but he was thoroughly beaten never theless aader the German's cut ting uppercuts and abu Gets Decisloa 8chmellng received the unan imous decision of Referee Arthur Donovan and the two judges. From the tenth round on there was no qusstioa of the result. The German took about a dosen of the IS rounds altogether. In the verdict ot most newspaper men but he plied up so decisive a margin on points In the last six that the lifting ot his hand by the veteran Joe Humphries was merely a formality. Herr Max Aia'.t Siegfried Schmeling, clean cut, 23 years old, a capable boxer and good puncher, stands out today, there tore, as the reigning censattcn ot what remains ot the heavyweight division. Sharkey Booed Herr Max may now be bally- booed to fight Jack Sharkey, the Boston sailor who was in. trodnced amid a wild chorus ot booes last evening. The Schmel- lng-Sharkey bout is a prospect ss the 1929 final ot heavyweight elimination business. Then again. tsire may be talk of Jack Demp sey's comeback and a match with the young German, who not only resembles the old Manassa maul er in striking fashion but who also gained some inspiration tor his ring career from a chance sparring match with Dempsey. then the champion. In Cologne several years ago. From the tenth round through the 15th, Paollno not only stood up against but actively rushed Into more punishment than the last hslf dosen heavyweight fights combined have witnessed. From, out of ths protective cov ering ot gloves and elbows that shielded him for the first half of the fight, Paollno leaped swung and lashed like an en raged buIL Mostly he missed. however, and mostly he took a withering tire of labs to the face or sharp uppercuts that stung and dated. Maxie Fights Coolly Schmeling fought with a cool. calculating air more suited to a veteran of Paollno's age ot 31 than his own years of 23. The German found himself stymied by Paollno's awkward defensive tactics In the first eight or nine rounds. 'The Spaniard showed s healthy respect tor Schmellng's right. For round after round they bored In, heads together. The crowd booed and In the up per gallery ones drifted Into a h o r u s of "Sweet Adeline." Whether or not this annoyed Schmeling, he opened up with both hands in the tenth and quickly turned the fight Into a bloody rout.
