There was one occasion there
in the waning moments of the
second when it looked like Shar-
key might finish his man, but
the Dutchman finally got his
arms up and blocked what looked
like the knockout.
Only once did we see Schme
ling hit Sharkey with anything
that might be said to have car
ried authority. 1t was early in
the fourth when Max shot in a
right cross which seemed to
straighten, out Jack for a mo-
ment, but the sailor shook it off
instantly and was his same, col
lected self.
Sitting up there at the stadium
watching Sharkey let the last
thread of hope slip from his
cropping mitts, rather reminded
of the old-fashioned spelling bee
when one of the survivors mis-
places a letter somewhere in a
word and spills all of the good
work that has gone before.
When the announcement of the
decision finally came. Sharkey
was standing very upright in his
corner, with his arms spread
eagled over the ropes, and he
bowed his head He didn't cry,
as he did in Miami, nor did he
beat his forehead with his gloVed
hands! He seemed resigned. lie
seemed to be saying to himself
What a racket"
Or perhaps it was us who was
saying it to ourselves.
It seemed like the old circus
shell game.
Now you see it and now you
don't.
Some at the ringside saw the
foul blow, and some did not. AS
Sharkey's back was to us at the
moment, we didn't see it, but that
doesn't mean it wasn't committed.
Someone must have seen it,
for it surely is impossible to steal
the worlds heavyweight cham
pionship right before the very
eyes of $4,000 people, even if some
of them did seem to be sitting
over there in the Polo Grounds
across the Harlem River.
Well, there, that Story's done.
Anybody that wants it can have
it. But it certainly is a racket
this fight businesSAfirst you see
it and then you don't, just like
the old circus shell game.

Few were so seated that they
could see the blow that curled
Schmeling in heap by the ropes
and left. him grirnacing the death
throes of the fallen gladiator,
famed in clay and in marble.
Those who did see 1t were
unanimous in declaring that it
was a low punch, a hard punch
and that it hurt. BY this time,
they doubtless have decided that
they were better judge of the
latter than the Herr Schmeling.
In consequence, the multi-mll-
lion dollar championship passes
into the custody Of a. new owner.
It really doesn't matter that the
latter is the first German to win
the title and that he is the first
foreign-born heavyweight since
Fitzsimmons to withdraw this
rich prize from American circula-
ton. The really significant fact
is that Schmeling is the first
champion to gain the heavy
weight title by default, by a mis-
calculation, by a breach Of the
playing rules and, to be specific.

licked in a 24-foot corral. Sharkey
had Schmeling hog-tied and las
seed, last night. He led from
here to there and back again.
He looked as good as he ever did
in any fight except possibly the
Loughran fight. was fighting
strongly, steadily and with calm
that was almost uncanny, con-
sidering the hysteria and emotions
Sharkey has been known to dis
play in the ring.
He was cutting Schmeling down
little by little. That tantalizing left
of Jacks which he kept pokeq in
Stribling's face all night long In
Miami year ago last February,
was paving away at Max'S nose
like a kitten at catnip.
Sharkey was clearly superior up
to the moment of his terrible fanx
pas. His eyes were clear. They
were veritably swapping. His foot
work was easy and accurate, and
while the German now and again
laid mean right on Jacks chin
they didn't have much more effect
than the snap of a child'S whip,
and in the meantime Schmeling
was taking plenty of punishment
around the head and mid-section.
Schmeling's body was not al
ways an easy target, as he fights
in a crouched up position, but his
jowls and chin were ever well mas
saged aforesaid left, and almost
from the outset it seemed just a
matter of when Sharkey would
finish his man. Max probably hit
Sharkey about a fifth as often as
Jack hit him, and about one-tenth
as hard.
The Washington times., 1930-06-13

Schmeling, fighting better in
this round, was charging to the
attack near the ropes when
Sharkey started to counter-punch
him. He clipped the German
with a right and then followed
with the fateful left. Imme-
diately all was confusion.
The German first lifted high
with the punch and then slowly,
painfully, he expired for all the
world like toy balloon. He
doubled up on the floor in ap-
parent agony. Sharkey skipped
over to his corner and the knock
down tineKeeper began his mea-
sured, staccato beat with the NAL
let The referee did nothing and
with vast furry of motions, too.
He gesticulated at Schmeling,
who paid him no heed at all. He
rushed to one judge, he raced to-
ward the other. The mallet-count
had reached seven when the bell
rang, ending the round.
This brought a horde of
human debris into the ring
and the drama of Miami
was enacted all over again.
1t seemed at first as though
the referee was deciding that
Schmeling must resume the
fight after a minutes rest.
BY the time he appeared to
have reached this thought,
the minute in question and
several more had winged
their way into eternity.
Don't You come out for the
next round" Joe Jacobs
shouted menacingly at Schme-
ling.
He as we'll might have admon-
ished a lifer at Sing Sing. The
latter would have had no inten-
ton of coming out, either.
Then a new, factor seemed to
capture Mr.. Crowley's vagrant
attention. It was the voice CT
Harold Barnes, official judge,
lifted up in oral affirmation of
the fact that Schmeling had
been fouled. It was enough Mr..
Crowley at last had found a
man who not only had seen the
punch but was willing to say so
and he hastened to declare him.
self on the verdict before Mr..
Barnes might change his mind
or his story or both.
Meantime, Sharkey for once
was the coolest man in the emer.
gency. He left his corner briefly
to have a look at the groveling
German on the other side of the
ring, then returned and stood
grimly observing the general dis
order. He didn't weep this time,
he didn't caper or prance. And
when the shot was called against
him, he took the blow standing
and with head high and eyes
front. He had made a careful,
foolproof fight for almost four
rounds. Then he made one
mistake and, with it. came tum-
bling down his pitiful little house
