Max Short Punch
NEW YORK. June lit ha.

NEW YORK, June 21.-It has
IN been some time since Gunboat
Smith threw that whistling right
in TIE direction of hostile chin or
stomach, but as a referee of note
and an observer few have kept any
closer tab on the ring trade in late
years. The gunner has an idea
that if Stribling keeps in close too
often he may run into a heavy
shock from the Germans short but
Earring right.
I'D read about those fellows"
Smith said, "who could knock you
dizzy with a 10-inch punch. But I
never believed it. Maybe it was be-
cause I always like to start mine
from the floor Dempsey and Car
pentier. the two best punchers I
ever met, needed more range than
any or. 10 inches or even foot.
But / saw this fellow hit Monte
with a short punch and down he
went. I thought it must be en &C
cident. Then 1 saw him hit Risko
with another one of those short jolts
and Risko at that time was no bowl
of mush. Yet he fell as If he had
been nailed with an ak.
"Schmeling may not be a fancy
boxer, and he could use more speed,
but he can hurt anybody he hits
with that right hand. He is dan
gerous man to start much clinching
with For he is also strong and
smart and he is always willing to
crowd in and keep trying
"Stribling is faster, more eX-
perienced and better boxer But
he had better keep his chin away
from that Germans right hand,
even If it is only 10 inches away"

SCHMEL|NG WORKS
BUT NOT TOO HARD
Gives Watchers Seven Round
Demonstration That He
Is in Great Shape.
BY CHARLES DUNKLEY

~ONNEAUT LAKE PARK, Pa,
June 27.-Max Schmeling con-
vinced $50 sweltering spectators,
including boxing experts from
all sections of the country, that he is
in excellent condition for the defense
of his title against Young Stribling in
their 15-round battle in Cleveland next
Friday night.
Schmeling went through a brisk
seven-round workout in the heat of
mid-afternoon and while his perfor-
nance was not impressive to the spec
tators, 1t was highly satisfactory to his
handlers. Schmeling boxed four
rounds and devoted the remaining three
sessions to punching the light bag, the
heavy bag and calisthenics. He did not
extend himself at any time, merely
coasting along to get up good pres
piration.
In Good Condition.
whats the use of working his head
off," explained Joe Jacobs. the Ger
mans manager THE guy is in perfect
shape and it's hot today and we don't
want him to work too hard"
Mat Hinkel of Cleveland, one of the
eldest referees and promoters in Amer
lea. said Schmeling was the best con-
ditioned heavyweight he has seen in
40 years. He appraised Schmeiing's
condition as perfect, without committing
himself to the Germans fighting quail
tiles. Hinkel said that Stribling. If
victorious. must win within the first
three rounds. otherwise Schmeling may
wear him down.
Prowler Is Captured.
/, In his three rounds with George
Panka, Pittsburgh heavyweight. Schmel-
ing reflected his best work. For the
most part he contented himself with
blocking Panka's lead, weaving in close
and betting Panka around the body. 1t
is obvious. apparently. that Schmeling
hopes to wear down Stribling with a
body attack
A mild scare was thrown in the camp
of the worlds heavyweight champion
last night when a prowler was caught
breaking into the tit'eholder's dressing
room to DESTROY his training para
phernalia. He gave his name as Robert
Galmadge from some place in Nebraska.

therefore is probable that the Yankee

The ring certainly will be well filled,
as there will be a couple of heavyweight
wrestlers in it. Jim Londos. the cul-

the world title against Ray Steele, who
learned his graphing in Lincoln, Nebr.
Jack Curley not only will produce
Londos and Steele, the cream of his

Wrestlers will be falling all over the

outside the ring and it might be well
to replace the first row of seats with

ENOUGH SUGGESTED
TO CROWD STADIUM
is Names May Be Offered
to Pilot, With Final Three
Picked in Ring.
BY EDWARD !. NEIL.

)LEVELAND, June ~ tH).-
The fiery struggle to pick
~ a referee and two judges
for Max Schmeling's
heavyweight title defense against
Bill Stribling in the Municipal
Stadium. Friday night, monopo-
lized the interest of the faithful
today as the warriors themselves
began to ease up in their training.
Fer more than a week now Cleve-
lands five-man commission has been
battling the officiating problem daily
and If all the suggestions that have
been showered upon the harrased
moguls we're adopted there would be
more judges and referees in the park
the night before the Fourth than cash
customers. Today the commissioners
argued together for two hours and
adjourned until Monday, when the
weather may be cooler.
Will Offer Is Names.
The plan of the commission is to
submit the names of Is nationally
known arbiters to the managers of the
fighters with the hope that five will
be found acceptable to both Schmeling
and Stribling. From the five the COM
mission wants to choose one man to
referee and two to act as judges, nam
ing them publicly when the glaoiatorS
enter the stadium ring.
1t seemed today that Cleveland was
talking of nothing but this problem
and every one interested in the title
struggle had list all ready for presen-
tation and lengthy arguments 10 sup
port each choice.
The general favorite for the referees
Job is George Blake. manager of Fidel
Labarba and known from coast to
coast as an honest, capable official.
He is on his way here from his home
in Los Angeles. Because of the New
York State Athletic Commission oppo-
sition to the match registered referees
from New York cannot be considered.
McGinty Has Backing.
Tommy McGinty, Cleveland fight
manager, promoter and race track
operator, was reported today to have
the backing of three of the five COM
missioners If he wants the assignment.
Other prominent referees mentioned
are Ed Purdy of Chicago, Gene Ro-
main of Jersey. Johnny BRASIL of
Boston, Elmer (Slim) McClelland of
Detroit and Matt Brock Of Cleveland.
Almost every prominent citizen OF
the Midwest has been mentioned as
possible judge at one time or another
although it has been intimated several
times that only licensed referees will
hold these two posts. Listed among
the unofficial nominees are Gene Tun-
ney, Jim Jeffries and Jim Corbett, for
mer champions, who will be here for
the battle Bob Edgren, California
commissioner, is also suggested as a
possibility
Schmeling took his customary work
out t3day and Stribling waited for
nightfall, as he has since beginning
work at Geauga Lake a month ago
Increased interest in the vicinity of the
b2x Offices was reported today.
