NEW YORK, June 13.-Max
Schmeling. the new worlds
heavyweight champion, may
look like Dempsey, and he may
in the eyes of some, fight like
Dempsey, but he isn't a Demp-
sey-not by whole boatload
of DempSeys.
However, beside the actual an
atomical. resemblance and the
alleged ring likeness, there are
some points of contrast and COM
parisor between and among
them that ought to be put on
record. now that he has
achieved the heights.
Like Dempsey, the Teuton
Schlager ran away from home
at an early age. and for several
years hoboed and tramped all
over his own country, trying
his hand at all kinds and all
manners of jobs-most of them
muscle making occupations
which like hard labors of Demp-
sey played a big part in making
him the athlete he is.
The German Oak was born
in Klein-Luckow on September
%. 1905. The man who fought
Sharkey for pugilism's highest
honor will not celebrate his 25th
birthday for five months.
His parentS-his father was
fisherman, later a pilot for the
Hamburg-American line-moved
to Hamburg. 1t was from that
seaport that young Max set
forth on his travels. But he hit
the trail inland. The sea was not
for him.
For several years he wan
dered and hoboed all over Ger
many. his wanderings also TAX
ing him into Belgium. He says
he worked at more jobs than a
dog has fleas. At odd times he
worked as a farm laborer, a
typist, a stone layer and fac
tory worker. He tried his hand
as a structural steel worker.
After soaring on great girders
and beams at dizzy heights
Max went down into the bowels
of the earth and labored in the
mines. ..
Schmeling'S wanderingS and
workings in Germany were re-
plicas of the wanderings of
Jack Dempsey in America 10
years before.
The same environments and
occupations that moulded Demp-
sey moulded Schmeling, and
gave each the big-boned fight
ing hands. the strong backs and
mighty shoulders.
Schmeling saw his first box
ing bout in Mulheim. Germany,
when he was 19. The day he
saw his first boxing bout he
drew on his first glove. The
night after he drew on his first
glove he won the middleweight
championship of the sports
Klub Colonia, Mulheim. It
happened this way:
Wandering down the streets
of Mulheim, one day, he noticed
the Sports Club Colonia and
strolled in. Two men were
boxing. Scnmeling became
greatly interested and. eyes
flashing his interest. watched
them closely. When the two
stopped one of the men, motto.
ing the Stalwart Schmeling,
asked him if he could box. Max
replied that he never had put
on a glove.

NEW YORK, June 13. - Max
Schmeling, the German, is the &C
cepted and acclaimed champion
Of all the heavyweights today, the
lineal heir to the purple Of that
royal dynasty that has carried
down through the corridors Of
time from Sullivan, the braSh, to
Tunney, the dilletante. The Ger
man is an affable champion. He
also is a well-bred champion. He
even is a genteel, a gracious and
an urbane champion. but he
neither is a great. nor, I fear. a
good one.
He was getting his sleek, young
ears punched off last night by
Jack Sharkey, the American con-
tender, when the latter dropped q
low left hook into the 'verboten''
territory Of the groin just at the
climax Of the fourth round and

Arriving here at 7:35 a. m.
after having milled around Broad
way until nearly 3 o'clock last
night. the conversation of The
Times party was divided between
the fight and the buggy ride" on
which they were taken on arrival
at Pennsylvania Station last eve
ming at 6 o'clock.
An unexpected and unan
nounced thrill was awaiting the
party on arrival in New York
After The Times special had left
Washington yesterday at o'clock,
Kirk Miller, The washington
Times sports editor who was
awaiting the party in New York
after having visited the training
camps of the two fighters, pre-
vailed on Police Commissioner

In fact, IL took no particu'

you," bantered the man, think
ing that with his skill he could
play Die Wacht I'm Rhein" on
the anatomy of the young yokel
who, travel-worn and dusty, had
wandered into the club rooms.
Schmeling accepted the invi-
tation.
The teacher popped the pupil
right on the beezer.
That was the punch on the
nose that made Max Schme-
ling fighter. Max got mad.
He got very mad.
He stuck his big left paw in
his instructors face, pulled a
big bowlder of right fist from
somewhere, and let go.
The pupil hit the instructor
on the jaw and the instructor
hit the floor.
He hit the floor stiff as a
corpse.
Max was scared. He thought
he had killed his teacher.
But a friend of the teacher
put a bottle to the teachers
nose, rubbed him behind the ears
and the teacher came to, blink
ing. and asking what caused the
explosion?
After the teachers friend had
explained to him just what had
happened. the pair held whis-
pered conversation, and one of
them asked Max if lfe would
come back to the club that
night and take part in a regular
encounter.
Max said certainly. Fighting
was heaps of fun.
That night the clubrooms
we're filled. When it came time
for Schmeling's bout no one ex-
cept the fellow he had met in
the afternoon paid any atten-
tion to Max. All eyes were on
the fellow in the opposite cor
ner. He was the club cham
pion.
LAS soon as the gong rings"
MaX'S friend instructed him,
"just rush from your corner and
let go the same kind of a right
you hit the instructor with this
afternoon"
Max followed instructions.
SWing!! Bang!!! Plunk!!!!
"One! Two! Three!" and so
on up to 10.
Max Schmeling was middle
weight champion of the Sports
Klub Colonia of Mulheim.
In the six month following
he had a dozen amateur
matches and won them all.
Then he turned professional.
He fought nine professional

was to Jack Taylor, the Ameri-

and experienced ring general.
Schmeling won his first pro-

Early in 1928 he lost on a
technical Knockout to GYPSY

in 1928, and after DR.. w. G..

NEW YORK, June ia mere
broth of a boy who was only 13
years old when Jack Dempsey
won the worlds heavyweight
championship, and WHO was only
IL years old when Germany lost
the war. is today sporting the
boots-kid boots they are-ot
Sullivan, Jeffries. Corbett. Jo.>'i
son, Willard, Dempsey and Tun
ney.
For three minutes last night,
or possibly four, this heavyweight
title hung in the balance at
Yankee Stadium while seconds,
trainers, a referee and announcer
a ran to and fro under the forty
odd arc-lights to try to find out
what really had happened.
From the confusion arose the
announcement of Old Joe Hum
phreys that Max Schmeling was
the new worlds heavyweight
champion, and with it arose the
hand of this same Little Boy
Blue Danube-Max der Schme
ling.
This is the first time a German
has ever assembled such fistianiC
heights. The impression prevails
that unless he improves inn
mensely. he will not long reign
the half-world on which he looks
down today.
But there was another fel-
low in this fight, and we may
be pardoned if we mention
his name.
Jack Cuchoskey Sharkey. or
words to that effect. the guy who
wasn't born with two strikes on
himself-but with three.
Sharkey. the original hard-luck
guy, who doesn't seem to get any
breaks. Sharkey the guy who
needed a break last night like
he never needed one before in
his life -, because pugilism'S
greatest diadem was just within
his reach when very unfortunate
and untoward thing happened.
After Jack had led all the way in
the fighting for three rounds, two
minutes and fifty-five seconds,
and having Schmeling on the
ropes, Schmeling made a lunge
for Sharkey, and Jack, aiming for
the pit of Max's stomach. caught
the Dutchman right in the
pantieS wher? men aren't sup
posed to aSSail each other, there
where there's manJ a slip twixt
the cup and the hip, and up went
John Cuchoskey's greatest and
most golden opportunity since
the day he was born-with three
strikes on himself.
Yep. he's the original hard
luck guy. Most all the worlds
been against him in his climb
thus far UP the pugilstic ladder,
and just when he was at the
point where he might turn to this
cauStic world which is Fistiana,
and thumb his queer little nose
ct 1t, he pulls the boner of his
Mfe and will be a remarkable
man indeed If he ever lives 1t

SEES PIONEERING
FORESTRY SPIRIT.

A pioneering spirit in forestry bent
upon creating new resources for per-
manent use is developing in the lake
states, in the opinion of DR.. Raphael
Zon, director of the Lake States Forest
Experiment station, maintained by the
forest service, United States depart
ment of agriculture, with headquarters
at University farm, st. Paul, Mimi.
The new pioneering spirit is giving
protection to the cut-over lands. is en-
couraging planting in denuded areas,
and is creating forestry values for the
future. AS result there is developing
a new forest which in time will again
produce real revenues from the idle
lands, DR.. Zon said.
The area now in state, municipal
and county parks, resorts, clubs, shoot
ing grounds, hunting and fishing pre-
serves, and in state and private game
refugees, is close to 5,500,000 acres.
Already there has been put back on
the tax rolls thousands of acres that
until recently were bankrupt and paid
no taxes. DR.. Zon believes that the
movement for protecting these areas
and of creating wealth upon them by
reforestation will gather momentum
DR.. Zon believes the people of the
lake states Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Michigan-are awakening to the fact
that much of the land occupied by the
old forests are not suited to agricul-
ture and that great areas will come
back naturally into a second growth,
which will furnish an intermediate
revenue until the real forest develops

Critical opinion at recent Los Ang-

Cheyney."
Three prominent male actors, Con-
rad Nagel, Chester Morris and Robert
