Max to Box Baer,
But Not in Garden

NEW YORK, December 1o.-Jack
IN Dempsey was among those who
greeted Joe Jacobs, manager of
Max Schmeling, when Jacobs came
ashore from the liner Hamburg Friday
after a seven-week sojourn in Europe.
Dempsey later talked to Jacobs about
promoting the Schmeling- -Baer fight
next June.
Jacobs said that he had not changed
his mind about not allowing Schmeling
to box again for the Madison Square
Garden Corporation.
"Schmeling will box Baer next June
either in New York ball park or at
Soldiers Field in Chicago" said Jacobs.
Dempsey wants to promote It, So does
JEFF Dickson, the Tex Rickard of
Europe. We won't have any trouble
finding O good promoter.
Il am not worrying about what Jack
Sharkey may do. He has the title, but
who Is there for him to fight but
Schmeling after Max puts Baer out
of the running?
Right now am negotiating with
three moving picture companies who
want to use Schmeling. If we get the
right offer, Max will come over and
make a picture during February and
March. If not, he will stay at home
until it is time for him to start training
for the Baer fight"

friends started to call him "Ponzi" after
the Bostonian whose name was being
splashed in black ink in the news
papers about that time.
Today Ponzi, his real name so little
known that the Billiard Association re-
fuses to let him use it in tournament
play, is a serious threat for Greenleaf's
crown. In his two victories over Frank
Taberski, former titleholder, and George
Kelly, last years rIlnner-up, the pop
ular little 28-year-old Italian has
turned in the high run of 70 and the
two best games of the tournament.
The championship carries with it a
cash prize of S10,000-large money In

Kid Proves He Can Take 1t

BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n YEW YORK, December 10
nj There appeared no doubt
/ Y today, after one of the
toughest Is rounds of his
career, that the ebony-hued kid
from Cuba can take it.
In the twelfth round Of a
featherweight championship scrap
with Fidel La Barba, little Cali

looked to be on the way down or
out under a terrific body battering.
For a solid minute he took everything
La Barba shot at his mid-section. then
to the establishment of a crowd of
$4,000 yelling fans, put on a flashing
comeback.
Before this twelfth round, the most
exciting and dramatic of the entire
fight, was concluded, Chocolate had
completely turned the tables. He had
La Barba groggy and weary under q
two-fisted barrage to the head. He had
weathered the stiffest blast of the fight
with enough stamina to come back and
keep the slight margin on points that
appeared definitely his at the end OF
the match.
THIS rally and closing furry in the
i final round saved for Chocolate the
recognition as champion that he
holds in New York State, but which Is
otherwise subject to dispute. 1t was SO
close, however, that it took the votes OF
the two judges, Sam Austin and Eddie
Farrell, in Chocolates favor, to decide
the outcome The referee, Willie Lewis,
voted the contest a draw.
On the Associated Press score sheet,
the tabulation of rounds also was even,
showing six each for Chocolate and La
Barba and three others even. However,
the Cuban kid won most OF his ROUNDS
by more decisive margin than his
rival Advantages see-sawed through.
