NOT K. D. MAN
SAYS MICKEY

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.
"Schmeling is not a great hit
ter. He's a sharp hitter, but
not a real knockout man."
Mickey Walker, battered and
torn, thus gave his impression to-
day of the German heavyweight
who defeated him last night.
''My vision was blurred in the
eighth round after Schmeling
caught me with a right upper
cut" said Walker. "My eye
suddenly closed. saw three
Schmelings and went after one.
1 got the wrong one and then
he got me-"
Walker said he had not thought
about retiring, but might contine
himsel to middleweightS in the
future.
Schmeling said Walker was the
gameSt man he ever met.
mo other man could take so
much and stand up," said the
German. "It should have been
stopped after 1 knocked him
down first in the eighth. 1
asked the referee to do it, but

MIR. Veeck Knew

The clinching of the National
League flag by the Chicago
Cubs is a tribute to the insight
on the playing end Of the game
Of President William Veeck, who
handles the Wrigley baseball
interests.
Two months ago, with the
Cubs sitting snugly in second
place, Veeck unceremoniou5ly
fired their manager. Rogers
HornSby, with the explanation
the club interests thought
Hornsby didn't have the Cubs
in as advantageous a position
aS it should be.
We were among those who
ridiculed the reason given by
Veeck, declaring that second
position with only five games
separating the Cubs from first
place was not bad spot with
the race half way over. We
also declared there must be
some other reason for Hornsby's
removal.
1t developed there were other
reasons for letting Rogers go,
and it also developed Mr..
Veeck wasn't far wrong when
he said the club interests
thought HornSby didn't have
the Cubs as far up in the race
as he might. We make a low,
If clumsy, and belated bow to
Mr.. Veeck. therefore.
Veeck, in case you have for
gotten, was the former news
paperman who got his job with
the Cubs because he marched
into the club office one day and
told therr he could run a team
better than the Cubs were be-
ing run.

owner; Its yOur job" And it
was. He's still got it, has Veeck.

WALKER STALKS
CLAN 7 ONCE
TOO OFTEN
BY HYPE IGOL

1TEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Thc
giant killer lost his man. Little
Mickey Walker bit off more than
he could chew. He stalked giant
of the ring once too often. After
an amazing showing in which he
out-fought this man. Walker col
lapSed completely under Schmel-
ing's thunder 'ng punching in the
eighth round in the Madison
Square Garden bowl last night.
Mickey was bounced on the floor
for counts of "6" and rs" in this
round and he was so far gone
after fighting Schmeling off un-
til the bell came that Jack Kearns
refused to send the gamester out
for the ninth.
Held Winning Chance
Walker seemed to have more
than a winning chance when
Schmeling nailed him with right
to the jaw Then he moved
Mickey down like a butcher.
The knockdownS were horrible
in their Xecution. Walker
seemed to hit each time on his
head and shoulders and his body
followed in queer twist of torso
and legs.
When Mickey came up on one
knee after the first knockdown
he fumbled feverishly with his
bloody mouthpiece. He succeeded
in readjuSting it before the count
of "6" and then he got up. He
was knocked all over the ring
like an old plug hat. 1t was
pitiful now.
Walker Fights Back
Hearts went out TO Walker,
who, though smeared with blood,
his eye bunged up, his lip cut,
fought back with all the Savagery
of his race, trying to swing the
tide back in his favor.
Schmeling was stag hunting
now. He can clout when he has
his man going and poor Mickey
certainly was going. He failed
to match up wallopS with the
German and soon he was tumbled
to the back of his neck again,
this time for a count of "9." AS
before, he got up, but this time
he was as groggy as a sick loon.
He stuck it out for the remainder
of the round in as courageous a
stand as eyes ever looked upon.
He wobbled to his corner and
there-Kearns probably sounded
the knell to the little fellows bid
for the worlds heavyweight title.
It was the merciful thing to
do-the only thing.
Walker made a brilliant and a
winning effort after he was
dumped for a count of nine in
the first round.

Lait Says Bout
No Sporting
Event
By JACK LAIT

NEW YORK, Sept 27.-Broad-
way is in mourning today. So
are both eyes Of its favorite SON
Mickey Walker. A game kid.
But he had no business in the
same ring with Max Schmeling.
I am no expert" But I
wrote that the referee would stop
it because Walker is a "bleeder." :"
He, did. Mickey, poor kid, made
brave fight of it but he never
had a chance. The German
butcher just cut him down.
Walker had no chance at all.
The poor kids will get their share
through the milk fund. That is
okay. But as a fight it was not
a sporting event. The harder
Walker fought the less chance he
had. Schmeling couldn't lose.
Says Max Unbeatable
AS heavyweight, Mickey is
washed up; Schmeling comes
through again as the unbeatable
champ. He licked Sharkey (de-
cision all wrong), and he is the
impossible phenomenon-nobody
can wear him down. Walker hit
him with everything. and Walker
can hit. But he might as well
have been hitting air. Schmeling
can take it-all Of it.
I gave Walker five rounds the
best of it, but the outcome was a
cinch. He gave the best he had
all he had-but he didn't have
anywhere near enough; not for
Max Schmeling. The Hun is the
toughest heavyweight in all his
tory, barring nobody. Walker is
no heavyweight at all. Sharkey
looked silly being introduced as
the champion. Schmeling is the
kaiser. He proved it again last
night, recalling Walker fought
Sharkey silly.
Sad, Sad Men
Teddy Hayes and Jack Kearns
appeared sad and sick leaving
the ring.
Walker, both his eyes closed,
couldn't see a thing. The boys
who bet on Mickey could see red.
Schmeling could see another
match with Sharkey. And he'll
clean the Boston mugger. The
wish isn't father to the thought.
Nothing could be farther from
the wish. But Schmeling is the
worlds best heavyweight.

them a Chinaman's chance TO

HARD CONTEST
FOR HOYAS ON
SATURDAY
BY HARRY COSTELLO
"GeOrgetOwn will be wise to

"GeOrgetOWn will be wise to
prepare for a hard game Satur-
day."
There you have the contents
of a telegram from an old
Georgetown grid star who has a
knowledge of activities in En-
mitsburg, Md.
Out Western Maryland way
where folks know all about both
Mt. st. Mary's and Western
Maryland University, nearly every
person has this to say:
No Easy Time
"There is a quiet confidence
at the Mount that Georgetown
will have no easy time win
ming over Mt. st. Mary's."
That notable gentleman, Mike
Thompson, himself an alumnus
of Georgetown, has been silent
to date in the matter of Satur
days opening game at Griffith
stadium. Mike still holds forth
at Mt. st. Mary'S, where he has
been for more than quarter OF
a century.
When Mike Thompson is silent
watch out!
What Harlow Says
Dick Harlow, coach of western
Maryland, says:
81 think that the Mount will
give Georgetown a great game.
1t will be no cinch game for the
HOyaS. While expect George
town to win, the folks who go
to the game will see real gridirOn
competition"
Mt. st. Mary'S youthful coach
Arthur Malloy, has been very
successful since taking over the
rains at the Mount. He inspires
his boys. Also, he teaches them
how to play real football.
Edge to HilItOppers
Coach Malloy has little to say,
except, Georgetown certainly
should have decided edge, but
my boys will give the Hoyas a real
battle"
Tommy Mills thinks his Hill
toppers will win. but adds:
1--WE certainly will make a
mistake if we underestimate
Mt. st Mary'S."
Few people look for a tight
game between Georgetown and
Mr.. st. Mary's. Most persons fig
ure the Hoyas altogether too
strong for the boys from EmmitS-
burg. 1t is possible, however, that
Georgetown is in for a harder
game than is generally anticipated.

In regard to the pitchers of the
Yankees and the Cubs, there is
one thing to bear in mind, and
that is the difference in scoring
power of the two clubs. Look at
it this way. The Yankees have
scored total of 982 runs in 154
games and the Cubs are credited
with TOO runs in 154 games, a
difference of 273 runs in the
same number of games.
What has that to do with pitch
ing, you may ask? Well, it means
that the Cub pitchers have had
to work lot harder to score their
victories than the Yankee pitchers
have been forced to work. An
extra run here and there is the
difference between a victory and
a refeat. and it is only fair to
stress this feature in any COM
parison of the two pitching staffs.
Warneke's Record Notable
think Warneke's record, in
view of the lighter scoring of the
CubS-who have been eXcelled as
run makers by three teams in
their own league and by six in the
American League-haS been the
most notable pitching achievement
of the season. He has pitched 25
complete games and has % vic
tories to his credit, despite the
teams lack of scoring power, as
compared with many other major
league clubs.
The pitching offers all sorts
of problems. I look for Bush
or Root to start for the Cubs,
with Warneke getting second
call, and either Root or Bush
depending on which one was
not used in the first game-aS
pitcher for the third. Malone
is another starting possibility
and it would not surprise me if
Burleigh Grimes should be saved
for one grand effort. With so
many capable pitchers to call
upon it is difficult to figure it
out several days in advance.
incline to Bush as the start
ing pitcher because I think it
will be desirable to start him
and Warneke more than once.
Warneke is the ace pitcher on
the seasons performances but
Manager Grimm may feel that
veteran should be entrusted
with the opener
