SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN T0DAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

/
NEW YORK, Jan. %. - Thudl
1hud! Thud! and a coupla bang,
bang, bangs!
That's how my illusions are drop
ping by the wayside.
/ My latest disillusionment came
out of a clear sky and it hurt me
way down deep.
It happened like this:
l was standing outside Jimmy
Johnston's office in Madison Square
Garden with a bunch Of boxing
writer's. Inside, Jimmy, Joe Jacobs,
johnny Buckley, Jack Conway and
Jack Sharkey were haggling over
I the Schmeling-Sharkey fight. For
hours they haggled. The doors op-
ened and Jacobs, Shmeling's man
ager, walked out.
Joe" we all cried, tell us what
is happening. What's all the ar
guing about? The anti-foul rule?
Where the fights going to be? The
referee?
Don't be a buncher mugs,
Jacobs came back. Don't be a
buncher saps. What the he'll you
think we're arguing about? The
weather? The price of bananas in
Hamburg? Nawl We're arguing
about the only thing that counts
the money. If that amt plain
enough, we're arguing about the
cut, the smackerS, the long green,
the dough, the ging il takes"
Say it amt true, Joe. Say it
amt true. That's what I felt like
yelling. Nonev! Money! So that's
what they think about, eh? And
all the time me a-thinking they
fought for the glory, the love of
country, home, the wife and kids,
the sweetheart, mama and pap.
I don't care now whether Sharkey
wins or gets knocked sprawling. I
had planned to sit hard by the
ringside and root for the Boston
sailor believing as I did that each
left hook to the Germans belly,
each right cross to the Germans
jaw, each one-tWo to the Germans
profile, Was Just another blow for
democracy, the stars and stripes,
the constitution, the navy, and the
Monroe Doctrine.
Before he went into conference,
Sharkey had his little say about
Schmeling.
80 the muggs going back to
Germany. Uh-huh. That's just
like him. Going back home and
pose as a hero, now that's shown
he isn't afraid of Sharkey. AL
ask is to let me get in the ring
with that mug. If it goes 10
years you can have my share. All
I want is to clip him--clip him
clean and hard.
Sharrey also had his say about
Jacobs
Smart? That guy showed how
smart he was when he didn't come
back and have Schmeling take me
on in September of the same year
we fought. It'd drawn a million
and he and Max would have
knocked down about 37lA per cent.
Instead, they mess around with
Stribling and an exhibition tour
that doesn't bring hair cut money.
Smart? Uh-huh. They're smart,
Just like a bull"

In the matter Of production, stage
setting and performance, the current
stock season will rank high and be
numbered among the most memorable
of any that have preceded it. Many
of the plays offered were presented in
Washington for the first time. notably

the late Edgar Wallace The Unex-
pected Husband" THE Vinegar Tree"

star in New York and Billie Burke on

it may be recalled. Leona Powers set
local critics to likening her work to

throughout the whole Of last week.
Naturally, the players themselves
deeply regret that the farewell had to
come so soon especially in view of the
delightful fitness of the weather for
indoor entertainment. Their work has
been highly appreciated, for never in
the history of the organization have
so many of their patrons taken the
trouble to write in and to phone their
keen appreciation of both plays and
