Schmeling Is More Versatile
Than in Last Sharkey Battle

Today the German is ready for the
fight that Will mean vindication of the
hollow victory by which he gained the
title on a foul, or will drop him back
TO the foot Of the title ladder
He weighs 100 pounds He is brown
of skin and placid of temperament, MS
muscles ripple and flow as he goes
through his lengthy workouts without
drawing a single heavy breath and he
has all the poisc and calm of any
champion in history.
SchmeEng had little idea how to
block left hook. except with his chin,
he night Sharkey whaled him about,
only to lose on a foul. Defense for
jabs and straight rights to the head
also baffled him. He had little idea
Of infighting
But today the German calmly picks
off left jabs with his right glove and
drops over short, thudding counters to
the chin. His elbows catch most Of
the left hooks his sparring partners toss
at him. At close quarters his hands
are never still. hanlmering to the body.
and his risht-hand upper-cut under
the heart and to the jaw has driven at
least three sparring partners from
camp.
Il am better, yes" says Schmeling,
why should I not be? I study my
trade like any other man. fight better

Thinks Sharkey Can Beat chmg He Uh His Boxing AbA
THE SPORTLICHT
by CRANTLAND RICE

~ INGSTON, N. Y, June 14.-Just
X week from tonight Jack shar-
N key will have to meet an op-
ponent who has these three out
standing qualities in the ring-deter-
mination, concentration and condition.
And condition here must include STAN
ina, strength and durability.
No one could rate the German cham
pion as fancy boxer, but he is a great
ly improved boxer over two years ago
when he came down from Endicott to
meet Sharkey for the first time.
Like most fighters who concentrate on
the attacking side, he is fairly open and
not too hard to hit. Being a slow
starter, he is sure to absorb quite a
cutting from Sharkey in the early
rounds OF the fight, but from the fifth
round on he expects to increase his
speed and go on to win by knockout
or decisive margin.
CCHMELING has increased his speed

with his hands He hasn't been weaV-

did, but he is stepping around at a
much faster pace. in and out. His
training and his exhibitions have been
responsible for this, since he has had
only one actual fight since winning the
championship on foul in 1880.
His first two rounds in training are
fairly slow. Then he begins to speed
up. And his final round is always his
fastest and his best He has had high
class sparring partners in the main
who have been instructed to shoot the
works and mix it up. Big Chester Ma
tan in particular has been an agrees
sive. hard-hitting opponent who held
nothing back in any exchange of flying
leather. Joe Jacobs has provided differ
ent types to mix the menu up, knowing
that Sharkey is a good boxer who can
employ several styles.
Schmeling has a pretty good left
hand ard jolting right He will do q
lot OF damage al close quarters, where
Sharkey is far from being at his best.
THE German can pump in that right
i hand from 10 to II inches and put
On world Of steam
He has a quick counter and he is an
accurate puncher. 1t is interesting to

do the same thing with Sekyra.

his usual speed and skill through

and was going along at fast clip

I"HAT fine, lengthy course Of the
Congressional Country Club has
| seen a lot Of scoring orgies
from the clubs of fine golfers
since the day back in 1922 when
Devereux Emmett turned 1t over to the
club, but at no time since the course
has been in play has 1t seen anything
like the par shattering exhibition that
has just come from the clubs Of Archie
Clark, assistant to Sandy Armour, the
club professional.
One day In 1927 Tommy Armour
played the Congressional layout in 50
strokes, 10 better than par, but he had
nothing like the sustained streak of
brides that Clark has just set down In
the record books.
| Archie Clark had six consecutive
brides on the last nine Of the Congress
sional course. That is something that
never before has been done around
Washington on standard length
course and we doubt II such a perform
ance ever has been turned in before
on any golf course, and particularly on
| a layout where par Is so hard to con-
quer as that at Congressional.
| He played each hole from the twelfth
| through the eighteenth in one stroke
better than par. taking a 6-tWo over
par-on the eleventh, and playing the
nine holes in 81 strokes, five better than
par. Archie is one of the five men
who will represent Washington in the
national open championship 10 days
| hence at Flushing. l.. l., and If he can
put on a scoring streak like that over
the Fresh Meadow course he will be
up there scrapping for the title.
| Here is the phenomenal score the
youngster from Fayetteville. N. c.. has
just turned in for that back nine at
Congressional:
Par
"A 3444 4-35
Clark-
4634 1888 3-31
| One lay last year Clark played the
last nine at Congressional in SO strokes
exactly par-without a hole in par
on the card He had five brides in that
score, and four holes above par, but
his score of last year does not equal
| his latest stunt of scoring six consecu-
| tive brides
The thirteenth is a par affair of
more than 500 yards; the fourteenth
| is tough One-ShOtter, the nlteenth Is
lengthy drive and pitch hole SO is
the sixteenth. and the seventeenth is
one of the toughest drive and pitch
holes around Washington. The eight
zenith is the only breathing spot along
the route, for it measures 256 yards
in length and the green can be driven.
This is what Clark did for he missed
15-footer for an eagle deuce and a
score of 80 for the nine. But we dare
say that mark OF six consecutive brides
will stand up for some time to come.
