.BAER AND LEVINSKY
 READY FOR BATTLE

RENO, Nev., July 2, (P)-If Max Baer and Harry Krakow, yclept, King Levinsky, were not at their physical peak at the conclusion of Fridays workout, it was too late to make amends. For the King-fish and AdoniS finished their boxing lessons this afternoon and neither can offer excuses when they step between the ropes for their 20- round skirmish in the Dempsey Bowl Monday afternoon.
 Interest chiefly surrounded Baer. His trainer watches his every movement in fear that his fall out of the ring yesterday might have injured him. But there is no trace of ailment and probably won't be unless he is defeated after which it might be a good alibi.

SMITHS NON-sUPPORT 0F PARTY |S G[AR|NG
 SCAR 0F CONVENTION

CHICAGO, July 2, (P)-Making new political history, the Demo crats prolonged sessions to receive and welcome to leadership it's choice for the presidency, Frank lin D. Roosevelt governor of New York.
 Roosevelt was nominated by the unanimous support of delegates in wild demonstrations, followed by California and Texas breaking into his column, after which state after state rushed into the winners col umn.
 The selection today of John N. Garner oS Roosevelt's running mate, was freely concealed by every party faction.
 . With no other business remain ing before final adjournment, par ty officials sought to make Roose- velt's visit by airplane to the con- vention grand finale and mem orable of color and significance.
 Hoping his appeal will cause har- mony and heal wounds opened by the debate over many measures, but scarcely believing it will cure conspicuous scar left from the con- vention, the decision of refusal by Alfred Smith to promise his sup port in the coming campaign is causing some anxiety. Smiths future course remained a mystery. He was the only one of the opposi- tion candidates who would not withdraw at the sound and call for harmony when it became apparent that Roosevelt was the winner.
 Roosevelt is already enroute to the convention. The word has been passed that Garner is acceptable as Roosevelt's running mate. Sev- eral other candidates will be pro posed but with 90 Texas and Calif- ornia votes, his nomination is all but assured. It is understood Gar ner is willing.

GOVERNOR ROOSEVELT CHOSEN BE DEMOCRATIC
 PARTY'S 1882 LEADER

 A deadlocked convention sudden ly broke the jam and named the New York governor to carry the Democrat standard against Presi- dent Hoover in the fall election.

 UNOPPOSED NOMINATION

CHICAGO, July 2. (P)-John N. Garner was nominated to be Gov. Franklin Roosevelt's running mate by exclamation and almost without opposition at today's session of the convention.

 Speaker Garner was in Washing ton and was said to have slept during the while the nominating and seconding speeches were be- ing made.
 He was notified by telephone from Chicago of the honor bestow- ed upon him by the party but he did not make any statement or comment whatsoever. He merely got up and went for a walk about the Capitol city.
