There were couple Of newspaper
men at his cottage Monday night
talking about the fight Friday night
with Pa and Ma Strihling, and
Gene Lutz, the veteran trainer and
race horse man. Did Stribling have
anything to say about the fight?
Not a word. He came into the
room after seeing a double header
baseball game between the Yankees
and Cleveland, peeled of his shirt,
picked up a book, and stretched out
on couch to read.
"They picked George Blake to
referee" said Pa. "You remember
him, don't you, w. LIP"
"Yep, he's all right" replied w.
L., not even looking up from his
book.
In Top Shape
"How does the fight look?" Pa
Stribling was asked.
"W. L. is in shape for big fight
for the first time in his lire," he re-
piled eff Schmeling defeats him
it'll be just because the German is
a better man than w. l."
What kind Of a fight does Strib-
ling plan to make?"
lies going to try to win by a
knockout if he can, but what w. L.
does depends upon what kind of a
fight Schmeling fights"
There's one thing I want to tell
you newspaper fellows" snapped
Ma. "N1y boy is not yellow, and
don't want any of you to say he is"
Don't you think there is some
chance your boy might lose this
fight? What would he do if Schmel-
ing knocked him DOWN."
On Floor Laughing
Last time he was knocked down
he laughed and winked at us in his
corner" replied ma.
Stribling has been knocked down
by fair punches three timeS-by
Billy Conley when the Georgian
was a middleweight in 1924, by Jack
League in 1929, and by Primo Car
nera in their second fight at Paris
in 1929.
"W. L. has never been anywhere
near knocked out" said pa. after
League f1oored him he got up and
knocked him down in the same
round. w. L. knocked Camera
down, and when he got up the big
Italian rushed in a like a wild bull
and half pushed and showed my
boy down while he had his arms
at his sides and couldn't defend
himself"
Ma Ready to Fight
Mentioning the name Of Jack
sharkey in the Stribling camp is
like waving a red flag at a bull. Ma
threatened to hit one newspaper
man with a skillet when he said he
thought Sharkey deserved the de-
cision over Stribling in their Miami
fight.
Even with one arm helpless from
neuritis in his shoulder, w. L. licked
Sharkey," Ma said.
IF Stribling won the title, would
you consent for him to meet Shar-
key again?"
Wen fight anybody" answered
Pa, "Sharkey, Camera, Walker, or
any opponent the promoters and
public want to select"
