n YEW YORK, June 12.-Jack
M Sharkey will win from Max
Schmeling tonight at the Yam
kee Stadium by knockout in
about the eighth round.
Jack may win sooner, but I believe
Schmeling is a strong, tough youth and
he may be able to stall defeat of that
long because of these attributes. /
think Sharkey will win because he
knows too much boxing for his oppo-
nent and his constant bombardment Of
Max's rugged body finally will wear
down even this fine specimen of young
manhood.
1 believe Sharkey will pave the way
for Schmelings defeat with that left
hook which he has perfected in his
training; that that left hook will be
the blow that will wear down the gal
liant young German and make him an
easy prey for the Sharkey right, which
may be the final blow of the fight
AS for the battle itself, I think it
will be good one. Every one has been
asking me If Schmeling can take pun
ishment. Sizing up the German in his
training camp, have come to the con-
clusion that he will stand up under a
lot more punishment than some people
think. In short, look for repetition
of the Dempsey-Sharkey fight in the
early rounds, with different ending in
that Sharkey will be the victor instead
of the vanquished.
SchmeIing Is Dangerous.
expect to see Schmeling come out
with an aggressive rush and 1 expect to
see Sharkey lombard Max with so
many and such heavy blows that he
will not only hold off Schmeling and
stop his rush, but will cause Max to
| change his tactics in the second round
and sort of go into his shell in that
way he has of crossing his arms in front
of his head and body-a good defense
to avoid punishment Then Max will
try to work his way in close so as to
be able to get shot at Sharkeys chin
| with his right. Schmeling is a tricky
and cunning fighter even when under
heavy fire, and he is cool, too, which
makes him always dangerous
I have lived close to Sharkey and
| Schmeling in their training camps
Many times have talked over with

them their coming battle. I know what
they think about the fight, their
chances, and their plans of battle. I
know they both are in perfect condition.
There have been reports circulated
about Sharkey being too fine, and going
stale; other reports that he is too fat;
Well, Sharkey is in great condition.
think he is at his best today, better than
he ever has been, and in all my talks
with him the thing he impressed in
delibly on me was that he is through
with all that fooling and hereafter I'm
going to keep my head"
The other day after watching Sharkey
closely and after boxing with him, I
said:
Jack, can get away from that left
hook; I can see it coming. Why do
you pull it back so far?"
Il don't pull it back far, do -" Jack
came back, and the next day and the
succeeding days saw Sharkey shorten
ing up on the old left hook. This I'M
doubtedly will be the damaging blow in
tonights fight.
German Called Too Heavy.
do not think Sharkey will weigh
more than 1913 pounds. I think he'll
weigh about 1877 when he gets on the
scales. Schmeling will weigh about 1856
pounds. believe Max made a mistake
here. I think he would be even faster
at a lighter weight. He kept himself as
heavy as he consistently could in the
belief that it would give him more
strength and stamina as the fight prog
reSseS
If Schmeling had done some real
strenuous work instead of playing golf
in the hot sun, he might have lost about
4 pounds more, and gained a great deal
of speed, as much as he possessed last
year.
I repeat, I look for a contest worth
seeing. 1 am not going to anticipate a
foul or anything that would be HARM
full to boxing. These men know their
business and think they'll attend to it.
think you'll see Sharkey who will be
trying to hold himself in control.
AS for Schmeling. he has the qualifi-
cations of a champion. He has keen
brain and a punch in his right hand
which he knows how to throw with a
vengeance. However, believe he stfll
lacks boxing science and an effective
left hand. But If he gets by Sharkey
tonight without being badly hurt, and
I hope and believe he will, Schmeling
will be a great fighter year from now.
But Sharkey will be the better fighter
tonight.

BY FRANCIS e. STAN.

TOR several years an event that
r annually assumes the proportion
of an enormous question mark
has risen in the minds of local
sandlot fans and teams.
This question is-what team is the
independent unlimited sandlot cham
pion? Some fans will say one team
and others will choose another, and, Of
course, all those clubs that have an
outstanding record maintain they are
the District title holders.
So annually four or five of the lead
ing independent clubs lay claim to the
city championship. 1t is true that once
ever so often one OF these teams will
play the other. Then the defeated nine
will win from some opponent that has
beaten their conquerors and again the
argument Is renewed. The fact remains
that the teams that call themselves the
District champs have no clear right to
the title.
And so far no remedy for this situa-
ton in regard to the present season Is
In sight. These same teams that al
ways have buckled the championship
belt around their waists will be at 1t
again before long.
However there should be some sort
of a remedy whereby no half q dozen
sandlot organizations will be clamoring
for general recognition as the cham
pionS.
How about a league series whereby
those independent teams that are not
entered in either a weekday or Sum
day league may compete, meeting each
other and assuring sandlot followers
that some one team, after winning this
series, will be crowned as the champs
of the year?
Such league is far from impracti-
cal. It's a matter however, which
would require the consent of these title
contenders to get together and decide
that the winner, after playing each
team in the league at least once, will
be recognized as the champion.
There are exactly IS teams now play
ing in the five weekday loops and be-
ginning on August l8 the winners of
