PLAN FIVE TITLE
 BOUTS THIS YEAR
Garden Officials Hope Interest in
 Boxing Will Be Revived

New York, May s JP)- Madison Square Garden officials are making plans for at least four other world cham mpionship boxing bouts for the 1880 outdoor season in the hopes that the Sharkey- -Sctmeling bout will mean a general revival of | boxing interest.
 The progran calls for 2 second heavyweight extrava ganza late in the summer. two lightweight titl2 matches and meeting Of Welter- weight Champion Jackie Fields and Jimmy McLarnin.
 Champion Sammy Mandell and Al Singer Of New York already are under contract for lightweight title bout at Yankee Stadium, July Y. and Garden officials tope to close the welterweIght bout during their visit 10 Detroit where they will attend the Fields-Jackle Thompson bout Friday. McLarnin signed for the bout several weeks ago and Fields has agreed 10 terms.
 Plans for the second heavyweight contest depend upon the outcome O. the Sharkey- -Schmeling bout Shar- key has agreed 10 appear for the Garden in an outdoor show, Septem- Der o4, in event he defeats ochmel- ing. f Schmeling wins the autumn classic may be delayed by the New York commissions lnsistcnce that the Teuton sign no contracts for bouts before October 15, when his contract with his German manager, Arthur Buleow, expires.
 Vittorio Campolo, towering Ar genuine, is the most likely nomlne for the chance at the heavy weight title, although there is a possibility that either Primo Camera or George Godfrey may win recognition as the logical contender. Godfrey probably would be ineligible because Of h s color and few boxing men believe Camera has the ability to fight his way past the second raters.
 Camera, now under suspension in New York for pushing over oppo- nents, and George Godfrey, who was suspended for holding opponents up, are reported 10 be under contract for bout at Philadelphia, June 23.
 If the bout is staged-and fought or its merits-it may have an inn portant effect on the heavyweight situation.
 New Works athletic commission forced the second lightweight title bout. The commission in'imated Tuesday that approval for the Sing er-Mandell title bout would be with held until Singer eliminated Jack (kid) Berg Of England. who ap- peared 10 be a more logical cortend- CT for the title
 General Manager Bruen Of the Garden yesterday paved the way for Singer to avoid rIshlng his title chance. by signing Berg 10 serve as plnch-hitter for Singer in event the New Yorker IS compelled to with draw from the Mandell bout. He also promised 10 arrange for Berg to meet the Singer -Mandell winner within so days and this IS expected to remove the commissions objec- tions.
 Berg's record would give him pre- ccdence over Singer but the NeH York boy is the better drawing card and the Garden is anxious to stage the more profitable match first,
 In addition to the title bouts planned by the Garden, Jess Nc Mahon plans to stage a feather weight championship contest be- tween Bat Battalino and Kid Choco- late, undefeated Cuban feather weight, as the annual outdoor at- iyn.
