Bout in September Considerd- Sharkey Faces Punishment

New York. June l3 [P-The up shot of all the fight furor may be to match Jack Sharkey and Max Schmeling for a return bout in Sep teniber to attempt a settlement Of the heavyweight chaos. William F. Carey, president of Madison Square Garden. told Sharkeys manager after the bout that he would be ready today to discuss promotion ot another contest here.
 Meanwhile, Sharkey faced punish ment under the stringent foul rules of the state athletic commission, de- spite an understanding that the con- tract for. the fight last night specl- fled these regulations were not to apply. The commission some time ago decided automatically to suspend a fighter for so days for his first local offense in fouling an opponent and also to pay him on a pro-rata round basis.
 Sharkey of schmeling, splitting 50 per cent of net gate of s1Oo,00O each would collect around s175,000 Or nearly s12,000 per round each. Should the commission attempt to enforce it's rules, Sharkey would get only s4S, 900 for the four rounds that the contest lasted. Schneling would not be penalized.
