JACOBS MAY CAUSE
SCHMELING CUSTER
New York About to Ban King of
Heavies, as Manager Is Not
Recognized.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 20. -- Joe
Jacobs is Max Schmeling's manager
under a five-year contract, but he has
to read the papers these days to find
out what the New York State Athletic
Commission wants the German heavy
weight to do. And thereby hangs a
tale that may cost Der Make" his
heavyweight crown.
On Tuesday the commission cabled
SchmeIiug, who is in Germany, that
he must agree in Is days to defend his
title against Jack Sharkey. Make has
replied that Jacobs is his manager and
fully qualified to go before the COM
mission and talk it all over with the
boxing solons.
And that's where the rub comes in.
The commission and Jacobs are not on
speaking terms and have not been for
some months. The commission does
not recognize Jacobs as a manager be-
cause of his suspension in the contro-
versy over Arthur Buelow'S managerial
claims on Schmeling. Jacobs has filed
no managerial contract on Schmeling
with the commission, which considers
the German heavyweight a free agent.
Just what the next move will be no
one was willing to predict, but it was
considered probable that If Schmeling
fails to accept Sharkey's challenge in
the specified time he will lose the
heavyweight title, so far as New York
State is concerned

efforts to feed wild life. The aid of
rural mail carriers in scattering grait

food and loaves of stale bread. Other
States have installed self-feeding hop

200 pounds of threshed grain which
pours into long troughs as fast as the
birds empty them. The hoppers are
covered by shelters constructed of poles,

equally effective and will be used in
many States to keep birds from starving
this year when natural food crops are

.BAER IMPRESSIVE,
ALTHOUGH BEATEN
Californian Making Debut in
East Gives SChaaf
Fine Battle.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,


N YEW YORK, December 2o.-Max
M Baer, young San Francisco
heavyweight, has made an
suspicious New York debut in
defeat. He dropped 10-round decision
to blond Ernie Schaaf of Boston in
Madison Square Garden last night, but
most of the public acclaim went to the
loser when the hard-fought battle was
over.
For four rounds Baer waded into his
more experienced rival, swinging damag-
ing rights and lefts that had the Boston
lad bit worried. But Schaaf took
everything the Coast slugger sent his
way, wavered at times, 1t Is true. but
always was ready and willing to come
back for more.
Then Baer tired His punches lost
some of the sting that had given him
"a knockout victories in 81 professional
engagements, and Schaaf, stabbing
away with a straight, jolting left hand
and hammering away with heavy rights,
assumed command of the struggle over
the last six rounds.
ScnaaI, ugntlng SOUND, mLeIllgenC
but overly-cautious battle, had Baer
reeling all over the ring in the seventh,
eighth and ninth rounds and might
have scored n knockout had he been
able to overcome his respect for the
dynamite in Baer's right hand.
Schaaf, who holds two decisions over
Tommy Loughran and one over Johnny
Risko although he still is youngster,
won the unanimous decision of the
referee and the two judges, but the
crowd, taking the heavy-punching
Californian to it's heart, booed the
verdict. The Associated Press score
card gave Schaff five rounds and Baer
four, with one-tfe second-even.
About 10000 saw the clash. Schaaf
weighed 203 pounds, Baer 200.

The team standing is as follows:

~ E. BISHOP, chess director of the
". Capital City Chess Club, has been
advised by Isaac Kashdan, cham
pion of the Manhattan Chess Club that
early in January he will give sirnulta-
neous exhibitions, and is willing to APP
pear in Washington. Kashdan Is the
young player who surprised Europe by
his splendid performances this year.
He played in the tournaments at Ham
burg. Berlin, Frankfurt, Gyor and
Stockholm and won 35 games, lost 2
and drew II, remarkable record. He
also played match with G. Stoltz OF
Sweden and lost by the score OF ga
to 31s. The financing of such an exhi-
bition must be by personal subscription.

seven opponents. He won games, lost
l and drew l. r. Sherry won has game,
George Dantzig drew and L. deLesder-
nier, L. Sherry, Roskopf, Harris and
DR.. Britten lost.
It looks now as if the coming con-
test for the championship of the Capt.
tai City Chess Club will be limited to
Carl A. Hesse, present holder; G. E.
Bishop and F. B. Walker If so, there
will be double round tourney.
In the village of Stroebeck, Germany,
chess today is a part of the school cur
riculum and boys and girls carry chess
boards to school, The village became
interested in chess more than 800
years ago.
There were 16 entries in the tourna-
ment for the championship of the
Marshall Chess Club, New York City.
They were divided into two sections and
the highest three in each section now
are playing for the title.
T w. BYLER won the third game in
his match with G. E. Bishop at
the Capital City Chess Club.
Bishop opened with P-Q4 and had at
least even chances. He refused to ac-
cept the offer of draw and played for
a win, finally losing. The present score
is:Byler, 2; Bishop, o; drawn, /. Only
two games remain to be played, and
Bishop must win both to finish even.
