German Battler Signs to Fight
Exclusively for Corporation

New York, Feb. s (UP)-If Max
Schmeling continues his meteoric
climb towards the heights of the
heavyweight division. it will be un-
der the promotion of the Madison
Square Garden Corporation.
The dark haired German who
startled the boxing world last week
with his knockout victory over the
durable Johnny Risko. has signed a
contract or agreement with Colonel
John S. Hammond, acting head of
the Garden. giving the corporation
exclusive rights to his services for
the next two years.
The agreement also provides that
should Max's drive for the title va
Gated by Gene Tunney prove sue.

Tense of it under the promotion Of
the Garden.
Boxing critics here consider the
agreement rather an accomplish
ment for Colonel Hammond and his
associates for Schmeling is ranked
almost universally as the outstand-
ing contender of the present crop.
His impressive victory over the
bounding Risko and his continuous
improvement since his first match
here a few months ago have stamp
ed him as the first actual foreign
menace" 10 reach the United States
in many years.
Schmeling has announced his In
tcntion Of returning within a few
weeks to Germany for brief visit
before rcsuming his quest Of the

possible and it is considered unlike
ly that he will fight again on this
side before making the trip.

achieved by Col. Hammond after II

The real purpose. however. IL be.
lieved to be his desire to wrest hi
management from the hands 81
Arthur Bulow. fellow countryman
and place his fate entirely In ths
hands of our own Joe Jacobs.
Schmeling's contract with Bulow
gives the German arst call on the
heavyweight's services and 40 pei
cent of his earnings. One Of the first
things the New York ring commits
sion did upon Max's arrival here was
to order this percentage cut to 80 l.:
as provided by New York law.
Bulow then disposed Of parts o.
his remaining interest to Joe Jacob
and at least one or two others. ant
the managerial argument began.
schmeling has simplified matter,
somewhat by refusing to heet
orders given by any other than ia
cobs and Bulow seldom is seen ir
his company. Should he succeed ir
having his contract with Bulow an.
nulled in the German courts, it j,
probable Jacobs will become his sole
manager.

Whether the New Britain basket
ball team will have recovered from
the slump into which it has been
sunk for the past five or six weeks,
will be discovered tonight when tho

will play the back court game usual

Fans who gather at the Stanley

Triangular league basketball game
between New Britain high and New
Haven Hillhouse high will see 4
team which is apparently on the
road to the state interscholastic
basketball championship unless the
New Britain team is able to stop the
undefeated Elm City team.

school outfit is coached by "Chick"
Bowen. former Holy Cross all around
star. He had two veterans left from
last year to build a team. Captain
DeAngelis and Gildea. The former
is = guard and the latter is center.
Incidently Gildea is the outstanding
center in the state.
The record of the Hillhouse team
includes victories over the following
teams: Sheldon high, Buckley high
of Hartford Hartford public high:
New Britain high. Fairfield high;
West Haven high: Commercial high
of New Haven and Arnold College
Junior varsity Of New Haven. None
of these teams have given the Hill
house team much trouble and the
down staters believe they are on the
road to the state championship.
II the Red and Gold team sue
ceeds in defeating Hillhouse it will
not only be the greatest upset of the
state high school basketball season,
but it also will be means of
boosting the New Britain stock sew
eral points. If New Britain high
school does not win tomorrow night
the Triangular Basketball champion
ship will go to the Hillhouse quintet.
New Britain's hopes will depend
upon how well the newly organized
team works out. The lineup will
probably consist of Acting Ca plain
