PLANS BIC ESTATE
AF TER RETIREMENT
Will Fight Differently in Next
Bout With Sharkey, Says
Ex-Champion.
BY WALTER TRUMBULL.

nj When Max Schmeling beats
Y Mickey Walker, Young
Stribling and Jack Shar-
key, as he firmly believes he will,
and when he polishes of a few
of the contenders who will come
after them and gets ready to re-
tire, he has his mind all made up
regarding what he is going to do.
He says he is going to be a
forester.
Schmeling'S idea of being a for
ester is to purchase some 10000
acres and perhaps rent some
more and establish a sort of do
main, although he refers to it as
an estate.
Much OF 1t Is to be wooded land.
where deer, wild boar, quail and ducks
Will be urged to foregather and let Max
get shot at them in season. Schmel-
ing has the Teutonic regard for law
and order and there will be no out-of-
season shooting on his place.
Then" he says, there will be the
many. The land is not all the same
helght-some Is lower and some is high
er-and you cut the trees Off one place
at a time. Next year you cut OF an
other place.
"PUT, when you cut, you must plant
~ new little trees. For that YOU
must study. You must know all
about trees. And where there are no
trees, I shall have men farming.
must study about that, too. But that
is what I shall do when have finished
fighting"
Have you ever fought a man as
short as Mickey Walker?" Schmeling
was asked.
Yes, several of them" he replied.
When Pauline crouches he is not taller
than Walker, who stands up. But 7
have fought smaller men.
1t may be-" continued Max. 'that
you do not know about our German
deer. have books about them with
many pictures. One was written by a
great German nature poet Perhaps
you know him? No? Wait and win
get the books"
So he got the books, which really
were beautifully illustrated, and ex-
pla1ned that one should not say buck"
when he meant stag" The buck was
little fellow and had only three
prongs, which Max called ENDS" but
a stag was a big fellow and had
name around his neck-"hair like q
lion."
"TT is funny about cooking" COM
i mented Schmeling, as he sat down
to eat. Il think have been now
In every State. Anyhow, I have been
II he - L
nag with the name of each. Every
where the cooking is different. It is
not different for me, because I eat in
hotels. But everywhere they ask you
to dinner and usually they say I have
for you big steak like steak, but
not always, because 1t heats the blood.
And IN the South, they say. I have
nanny cook and she will make you
fried chicken and hot biscuit We are
told in Germany that hot bread Is not
good, but If you do not take the hot
biscuit, and ask for some healthy cold
rolls, the kind people do not like it,
Schmeling has a good healthy appe-
tite and there are few dishes he will not
eat, but his favorite is Irish stew. THE
meat and potatoes and gravy all to-
gether," he says. MY mother can
make that and it is very good"
Max likes New York, but, If he lived
in the United States. he thought he
would choose a place like Southern
California, where it was always warm
and you could play golf every day. Was
there any hunting around Southern
California? He had not seen any when
he was there.
IVES. he still thought he had won
i from Sharkey, but that was natu-
raj, and there were those who
didn't think so. What was the use Of
talking about that? That war was fin
ished. Sharkey was now the champion,
and he hoped they would fight again in
the Fall
sharkey was very good fighter,
Yes, he would fight him differently
next time. You always learned some
thing in every fight. and you always
must be prepared to alter your style
of fighting to suit circumstances, be-
cause you never can tell what the other
man will do.
Schmeling. Joe Jacobs, his manager,
and Max Machon, his trainer, all
thought he would like Spectator, N. Y,
where Gene Tunney had trained Only
Jacobs had been there, but there were
hills. woods and water, and that was
the type of place in which the German
heavyweight always was happy.
While he is here, Max said, he very
much would like to enter trapshoating
meet. At least, he would like to see
Americas best shots perform with the
clay pigeons.
The former world champion doesn't
appear to need much training He
weighs 1872 and appears ready to step
into the ring.
