NEW YORK, oct. 2S.-As a
result Of the sharp break recently
registered in the coffee market,
quotations are now at new low
levels, for the esason, fully 6 cents

in excess OF consumption.
Prices. as a consequence, nave
shown steady downward trend
from February high levels.

Here's where many fighter would crock him. But little mistakes like that can be remedied.
 With careful matching Campolo may go long way toward winning the heavyweight championship. ALSO he should be able to reap for tune, as Firpo did. The talk of matching him with George Godfrey, the black shadow of Leiperville, is already going the rounds. This might or might not be a good match for the Gaucho Giraffe. ! Nevertheless Humbert Fugazy cou q stage a great counter attraction to the Loughran- Sharkey match, which is scheduled for September. The fans who crave heavy hitting would all pass up the latter to see the two monsters have at it.
 The body booming should re | heard as far as Buenos Aires. And we don't mean over the radio. Fer our part, we would prefer being there to sitting through the Sharkcy- Loughran cadenza provided we would have to perch not one Inch

SCHMELlNG'S MISTAKE
Jack Dempsey Believes German Fighter Should Have Made Peace Before Going Home.

Chicago, Aug. 24 Jack Dempsey believes Max Schmeling, his German double, has made serious mistake -one that may prove extremely costly to his future in the boxing game-by returning to Germany be- fore battling out his troubles in the United States.
 T think Schmeling should have stayed here until he cleared up his difficulty with the New York com mission and his managerial troub les." Dempsey said. He should keep on fighting too, for he will lose ground in remaining idle very long.
 "Schmeling has just started and he needs plenty of fights if he hopes to win the championship, the form CT champion asserted. Dempsey to- day named Ray c. Avis, a Chicago fight manager, as matchmaker for his prom otional activities at the Coli scum. In so doing he compiled with regulations of the state boxing com mission which provide that the matchmakers be bona fide residents of the state

 GEORGE M. LOTT
Veteran Tennis Star Battles
 Youthful Flash in Finals

Newport, R. l., Aug. A P}-Wil- liam T. Tilden of Philadelphia, the veteran who still dominates Amerl- can tennis, was bracketed in the final round of the Newport Casino invitation singles tennis tournament here today with the best of the younger stars, George M. Lott, Jr., of Chicago.
 Tilden reached the final round by putting out in straight sets his youthful protege, Wilbur F. Coen' Jr., of Kansas City, 7-5, 6-3, 6-4' while Lott was defeating John Van Ryn of Orange. N. J., his Davis cup mate, in a hard fought four set match, 6-4, 6-2, 1-6, GA.
 Whatever I.otts fortunes against Tiden in the singles final may be- the young Chica goan shared in a successful challenge of the veteran supremacy in the doubles when ne and John Doeg, 20year-old santa Monica, Cal, youth administered crushing straight set defeat to T1lden and Francis T. Hunter of New Ro- chelle, N. Y, in the semi-tinals.
 Lott and Doeg, doubles winners here last year, played inspired tennis to defeat the veteran combination s-4, e-2, 6-4 They took the upper hand from the third game Of the first set to the finish and concentrat- ed their fire, not on the weaker Hunter, but on the old master him- self. They aced him or forced him to net critical points throughout the Lmatch. o,
 In the finals they will face ]. GIL bert Hall of Orange, N. J.. and Fr'tz Mercur of Bethlehem. Pa, who won thenr semi final match from J. broks Fenno, IT,, of Boston, and E. w. Feibleman of New York, 5-o' o--' 7-5. e-2
 Tilden gave the impression or playing -heartedly against Coen in the singles semi-flnal, but Lott had a real struggle with Van Ryn who might well have forced the match to five sets If he had been less wild.
