Sharkey Is Concerned

All Of which is very true, in
deed, and we Surmise that
Sharkey will be watching that
Understanding fight this
month with a very discerning
eye. You know, Sharkey didn't
defeat Make with any too much
Of a margin. You should know,
too, that it would take only a
little improvement, little bet
ter Workmanship on the part
Of Schmeling to make him a
strong favorite if and when he
ever gets another crack at
Sharkey.
The few times Schmeling
landed Squarely on Sharkey in
their title to go last June, he
made the blows tell. That's the
reason Sharkey came out of the
fight more disfigured than did
Make. It was only Jacks out
maneuvering, we believe, that
won him that fight.
When they meet again, Max
will have all of Jacks ring
didos figured out, but let's don't
worry too much about that now.
He's got to meet Walker first,
and our bet is he'll take the
plucky little Rumson Bulldog.
What's yours?

Henri Cochet, worlds champion,
and Ellsworth Vines, the Cali
fornia marvel, were supposed to
be the headliners of the current
national championship, but it's
the towering collar ad from the
city of angels who holds the
galIery's attention.
He won their admiration with
his thrilling, five-set conquest OF
Jiro Satoh on Monday, held it
in sweeping Joe Coughlin out OF
the way on Tuesday, and estab-
lished himself even more firmly
in the limelight yesterday, when
he dealt an amazingly decisive
whipping to the favored Gregory
Mangin.
This afternoon he battles Vines
in the quarter finals and so
thoroughly has he been en-
throned in the affections of the
spectators that the strange spec
tacle of large portion of the
gallery roofing against a popu-
lar defending titleholder may well
be enacted in the Horseshoe
Stadium of the West Side Ten
mic Club.
Beat Vines Twice
The Pasadena comet enters the
contest a favorite, but this is one
match he'll have to go all out to
win. Stoefen beat him twice out
on the Coast, and he can do it
again, unless the champion is hit
ting on all cylinders. Stoefen
thinks he can "take" the Pasa-
dena star, and he's going to try
mighty hard to upset him. If he
plays as he did against Mangin,
stopping him is going to be the
toughest assignment Vines has
taken on in a month of Thurs
days.
There are a couple of other sup
posed "underdogS" who will also
bear watching this afternoon.
They are Clifford Sutter, the in

Banovic Can Take It

The latest miSSive from Spec
ulator indicates that Schmeling
is having a difficult time keep
ing in sparring partners, and
that of the entire crop which
has been in camp to so through
the daily exhibitions with the
former champion, Joe Banovic,
the lad who meets Sammy Weiss
at Portner'S next Monday, is
standing up the best.
We suppose news like that
doesn't make Frankie Mann or
Jack Tulloch, Alexandria major
domo, a bit sore, but here it
is, right in the publicity letter
from Speculator, which by this
time must certainly be at least
q third class post office.
The letter also says that a
defeat September 10 at the
hands of Mickey Walker would
put Max Schmeling back among
the also rams. in the heavy
weight championship race and
that a victory will put Max
right on Jack Sharkey's front
porch.

tercollegiate champion, who
handed Bunny Austin so decisive
a setback, and Sidney Wood, who
put England's other Davis Cup
star, Fred Perry, out of the run
ming.
Sutter VS.. Lott
Sutter plays George Lott, and
Wood meets Wilmer Allison. Lott
is seeded two notches ahead of
the Southerner, and Allison holds
a three-place advantage in the list
of favorites over the Forest Hills
youngSter.
The other quarter-final match
brings together Francis x. Shields,
husky New York newlywed, and
Cochet. That's just too bad for
Frank. He has about as much
chance of beating the Frenchman
the way the latter played against
John Van Ryn, as he has of being
nominated for Jimmie Walkers
late job. He's just not in Cochet'S
class.

LIGHT ELEVEN
LOOMS FOR .
MARYLAND
BY HARRY COSTELLO
A good team by November.

"A
Rather tough going in October.
The foregoing two sentences
just about sum up University Of
Maryland's football situation.
There are some 38 candidates
for this years Old Line eleven.
Fully "a of these 38 are a bit
light. Certainly, at least, Is Of
the candidates are inexperienced.
Lightness and ineXperience mean
that the line will present Coach
Curley Byrd and his staff Of as
sistants with their greatest prob
lem.
This years team should possess
plenty of speed. There is the
lightning fast Earl Widmyer, 49,
year-old sophomore back, who
steps the hundred under 10 Sec
onds. There are other boys who
look speedy. Widmyer may de-
velop into a star. He scales
about 1856 pounds.
Need Weight
Others on the squad, who
weigh about the same as Wild
myer, look good, too. However,
! the Old Liners need weight, as is
proven by the fact that only four
or five members of the whole
varsity squad weigh more than
180 pounds.
Maryland will be called upon to
meet Virginia, Virginia Polytech
and Duke on three successive
Saturdays, after the opening game
against Washington College.
These three games are danger
spots for the Old Liners. How
ever, in a sense this trio of games
will serve a fine purpose. They
will give green men experience,
something this years squad needs.
The Terps this season are
minus IL of II lettermen. They
are also without a number of the
1881 reserves who might have
been of varsity timber this season.
AS one studies the Maryland
squad one is impressed immedi-
ately by two features: Cd the
speed of the squad as whole,
particularly those candidates try
ing out for positions in the line,
and CD the large number of men
who weigh between 155 and ITS
pounds.
Backs Workout
Three full backfields worked
out yesterday on the practice field
in rear of the stadium. They
spent most of their time running
through plays. The linemen were
handed out a hard workout in
both offensive and defensive tao
tics.
If Widmyer develops as a rum
ming back, and if an exceptionally
good punter can be found, Mary
land may weather the storm of
october and develop into fine
team by November. However, it
seems unlikely that a line capable
of holding it's own can be whip
ped into shape much before the
first week in November.
