Lost Good Friend in Schaaf.
Says Primo; Ernie's Qualities
Extolled by Rival Managers

n YEW YORK, February Is
M Ernie Schaaf's death, follow
ing his knockout by Primo
Camera, continued today to
be prime topic in Gotham. Ac-
cording to DR.. Byron Stookey, who
operated on Schaaf, IAN accident
such as he sustained Is utterly un-
avoidable. There is no one blow
known to boxing which could with
intent produce a cerebral hemor-
rhage."
DR.. Stookey, a brain specialist, is
attending surgeon at the New York

neuroSurgery at the New York POST

pital, and consultant at four other
New York institutions.

was my big chance, my chances at
the championship of the world. And
there is only one champion.
I was happy, because I knew I
could win That bout began in JOY
and ended in sorrow.
Some persons do not understand
that boxers do not hate each other.
They try to knock each other out,
they try to win, but, win or lose,
they bear no grudges A boxing
bout Is merely contest to see who
is the better man.
Outside of the ring, Schaaf and I
were good friends. l liked him and
admired him. There never was a
gamer or finer opponent. If could
call him back. a title or right arm
would be a small price to pay.
But Ernie Schaaf was a brave
heart who took his chancec, as we
all take our chances. He would have
been the first to tell me to go on.
He hit me some hard blows. In
the fifth round, he hit me as hard
a left hook to the body as I have
ever felt But. as the bout went on,
I felt him growing weaker. BY the
tenth round, I felt that he was
through, but you can't take chances
with as good and game man as
Schaaf.
When he went down from that
half jab. half hook, In the thir-
teenth round. I was not astonished.
I knew that he was growing weaker,
