IONAL DUCKPLN CONGRESS- TO RANK DOUBLES TEAMS
PLANS To BID
FOR TITLE
|NFALL
BY JACK DEMPSEY

On June Is Max Schmeling
will defend his title against
Jack Sharkey. I would like
nothing better than to meet the
winner in September.
It is, of course, a bit early to
speculate on Sharkey's chances
against Max. 1t is a great
chance for the Boston man, but
he has had many great chances.
If he fights the kind Of a
fight he showed against Harry
Wills when he knocked the big
negro out of the heavyweight
picture, he is going to give the
champion plenty Of trouble.
However, even Sharkey'S best
friends will admit that he has
his off nights and If June 16
happens to be one Of them he is
liable to run into a mess Of
trouble.
Max No Fool
Schmeling is nobody'S fool. I
think he showed rare sense in
going back to Germany after
signing for the match. For the
next two months he will be rest
ing at his estate at Baardsarrow,
about 40 miles from Berlin. That
rest should put him in fine fettle
for the training grind. It should
also add a few pounds to his
weight which will come in handy
when he starts his serious train
ing.
A man like Schmeling, accus-
toned to a quiet life, is apt to
develop nerves" spending too
much time in a city, surrounded
by well-meaning back slappers
and being feted by friends. He
will be right at home in the quiet
of his country estate and I expect
to see a well-conditioned athlete
arrive here in May to prepare
for the defense of his crown.
Right now of course I am more
interested in condition than
have been in a number of years.

where I think 1 could go ten

have been doing road work now
for nearly four months and even

that those pins of mine are in

Monte has uttered but three
words since his arrival. And
those have been Eyes" mo" and
"sure." The big pitcher makes
up for his quietness, however, by
his earnest manner both on and
off the ball field.
Realizing that his new club
counts heavily on his ability to
deliver this year, Monte deems it
best to say nothing but do a lot
in getting himself in top condi-
ton.

Weaver has started something
by his quietness. OSsie Bluege, in
the past, has held this title, but
the popular third baSeman has
a formidable rival this year.
Most rockies in their first year

with all sorts of pep, talk a lot
and outdo themselves in their
efforts to attract the bosses.
Not Weaver. During the daily
practice sessions, he silently
dresses, silently takes a run
around the field, silently warns
up with Catcher Howard Maple,
silently takes part in the pepper
drills, and silently takes his place
on Catcher Roy Spencer's volley
ball team.
In comparison to the nervous,
talkative rookie, Weaver's quiet
efficiency is noticeable.
