MICKEY WALKER TO BENEFIT BY
 DISAPPOINTMENT

Summit, N. l., Sept 15.-The small boil on Mickey Walkers left ""~'. the lancing of which caused rostponement of the 15-round Milk Fund fistic classic between 'n" Tov Bulldog and Max Schmel- ..g from September 19, the original uate to Friday night, September 23, now takes the form of a blessing in disguise to the Mite Mick.
 Aside from the fact that the four day postponement affords complete healing of the wound be- fore the final siege of training, Mickey Walker, as result of the extended conditioning period, will enjoy the longest and most dili- gent preparatory stand of his career for this all-important bout with Schmeling.
 Five Weeks Dieting
 By the time of the bout Mickey Walker will have completed five full weeks of careful dieting. regu- lar hours and consistent training stunts, both hard and light As q result it seems q foregone conclu- sion that he is to enter the ring against the former champion in readiness for battle such as he has probably never attained be- tore. All of which speaks well for prospects of great fistic struggle on the night of Septem- Der 23.
 Despite the wound which pre- vented boxing drills for five days of the training period Walker regularly performed roadwork and limbering up exercise, sometimes pounding through more than the equivalent of five fast rounds with the gloves. Not once since he arrived here at camp on August 17 has Walker neglected his train ing organizations in any way.
 Resumes This Week
 By resuming boxing this week Walker will have seven or eight days in which to put the finishing touches to his glove work for Schmeling. Before the annoying boil put an end to boxing for the time Walker had been seen in 13 strenuous glove drills with his sparring partners. He requires only a few more hard sessions for the perfecting of speed, timing of his punches and punching prowess.
 Whether Mickey Walker is to | eHteT tne IlHB dSdllSI ocHiileIib at a new natural heavyweight notch remains to be seen. Something of a secret has been made of Mickey's real weight during the training period. It is noticeable that Mickey has grown consider ably across the shoulders and chest. This has been pointed out by fol- lowing of Irish Mickey who have known him for many years. Per- haps. at the age of 3l, Mickey has fully matured. When the match with Schmeling was made it was believed that the German would enjoy n 20 pound handicap. But, If Walker scales well over the ITO mark. there will he only q ib or less pound difference in the weights.
