TALKING
1T OVER
BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, June i8.--True TO
IN the forecast of the keynoters,
the denomination of Hoover and
that other fellow has had a tremen-
dous effect on the morale OF the
country. You can see it already in
sports. Next week, for instance, is
the biggest OF the year. There's a
championship in every dinner pail.
Take look:
Mondav-.The intercollegiate regatta at
pnuehkecpFir.
Tuosday-skarkey and schmeIinF at the
new outdoor bowl.
Thursdav--Th, national omen at Fresh
Tridsy-The YaIe-Haryard race at New
Lennon.
The Poughkecpsie regatta looks like an
omen race. It's on the HUDSON but the

stand on, after the race IS something else.

Of the Pennsylvania boat. Heretofore
there never was any doubt. They made

CCHMELING will go into the fight
Othe fsvorite over Sharkey, in
spite of the fact that he was far
behind when a foul blow stopped
the last fight. This isn't Surpris-
ing. The champion usually goes
into the ring the favorite. Nor is
it significant. The favorite doesn't
always win. The fight seems to be
catching on. The boys are beginning
to jabber about it. Who will win,
and what will it draw?
Those who like sharkey do so because
they remember how easily he was win
ming UP TO the time he lost his onion and
began bowling out of bounds.

to come when Sharkey, stung for the hrst
time in the fight, committed the foul.
'sharkey sensed the tide had turned and
that's why he fouied." they say.
These what-might-h have happened con-
troyorsies are always futile anyhow, and

changed in some vital respects. Sharkey

Whether Sharkey or Schmeling wins, the
result can offer little solace to the de-

previous one. Not after two years. This
is a different Sharkey and a different
Schmeling. AT least it is to be hoped 1t is
a different Sharkey
A S for the national open golf
IA championship, it promises to
be the most tumultous battle the
game has had since Bobby Jones
stepped out. Gene Sarazen did
much to revive public interest in
the event by his record breaking
283 in the British open, and for
the first time in three years the
promoters anticipate a populous
turnout.
Another thing. the pros Sarazen and
the rest have had time enough to get over
the Jones complex which kept them in the
background for years. This adds to the
piuuancv OF the fight and it should also
add to the brilliancy Of the scoring.

AS for the Yale-Harvard boat race you
can write it down that Ed Leader has an
other great crew at New Haven and if the
Crimson boat gets anything out of the
race Friday besides backwash it will be
the satisfaction of having finished second
TO what is probably the best barge in the
east.
