that Max was under contract to the

ton and would appear under Gar
den auspices against Pauline Uzcu-

While Jacobs is trying to guide
Schmeling along the road laid out
by the Garden corporation, which
gave him his first chance in Amer
lea, Arthur Buelow, his German
manager and the only one rec0G-
nized by the New York state ath-
letic commission, is trying to lead
him in addition to q bout at Bos-
ton contracted for before Max left.
Buelow has signed with Jess Nc
Mahon, former Garden match

Proper Interpretation of the rules
on confusing plays frequently place
umpireS under unjust criticism of
fans and players. 1t is astonishing
how little some Of the players know
about the rules. That goes for the
big leatuers, too. Just watch some
of those high-salaried boys when
a question of the rules come by
When Tommy Thevenow was
playing with the Joplin club Of the
Western association in 1923 an I'M
usual situation came up that GER
tainly caused a mixup in the stands.
1t was brought about by the infield
fly rule.

then a skinny little kid, but already
a ball-hawk. A natural player in
his teens.
Along about the middle Of the
game the home side placed runners
on first and second with one out.
The batter then popped a dinky lit
tie floater over the infieId and the
umpire Immediately ruled him out
under the rule covering the infield
fly.
That was perfectly proper. of
course, but the ball in descending
came down almost on second base.
In fact the base runner on that
sack in endeavoring to get out of
the way lost his balance and fell
off the bag completely. The short
stop, about to make the catch, trip
ped over him, and the ball fell safe
ly but hit the sprawling base run
ner between the shoulders.
At ono the claim was made of
a double play. The batter was au-
tomatically retired and didn't a bat
ted ball strike a base runner? It
did. The umpire had to think
quickly. He refused to permit the
second out. That was one for the
boys to think over.
