j, 8. CALLED On
To FIGHT NAZ|S

Severance of diplomatic rela-
tions with the Hitler government
may be the course taken by the
United States if racial and re-
ligious persecution there is not
ended.
This warning was voiced by
Senator William H. King CD Of
Utah, who spoke at banquet of
the American National Confer
ence Against Racial Persecution
in Germany, in the MayfloWer
Hotel last night Senator King
said he would introduce a resolu-
ton calling for severance of rela-
tions if the prosecutions continue.
The banquet followed a meet"
ing in the afternoon, during
which Hitler was roundly de-
nounced for his intolerance,
called fool" a "frienzied mad
cap" and the prepetrator Of me-
dieval savagery."
Over an eloquent protest by tor-
mer United States Senator Wills
liam Cabell Bruce, Maryland, a
resolution was passed calling upo1A
the President to use his good
offices in a friendly way to bring
an end to the German govern
ment's Jewish program Senator
Bruce urged that the Government
be left out of it unless we ara
prepared to do as we did in 1917,
back the President up with the
Army, Navy and air force He
suggested that the protest, strongly
drawn. should be from the Amerl~
can people, not the Government.
The conference voted to urge
the Government to temporarily
relax the immigration laws to let
in religious exiles and to form h
permanent organization with a
fund to aid German Jews.

REICH OFFERS
COMPROMISE

VIENNA, June Germany to
day offered a compromise before
the International Olympic Com
mittee in an effort to meet mount
ing opposition to having the next
Olympic games held in Berlin in
1896 if there is any discrimina
tion against Jews.
The German government, it was
learned, agreed to permit former
State Secretary Lewald to func.
tion as head of the German Olym'
pic committee and to direct the
games in that capacity. Ger.

Is of Jewish origin.
Local newspapers reported
American, French and Scandina-
Nian delegates had decided to
vote against Berlin if Germany
excludes Jews from competition,
proposing the games be held in
Rome or Vienna instead.
Gen. Charles Sheriff., Ameri
can delegate, denied the com
mittee as a whole had reached
any definite decision, but limited
the question had been discussed

The Washington times., 1933-06-06

For years the weekday leagues
have been offering just about
the best sandlot baseball in this
city and large crowds witness
their games, but not so great as
the current season.
Bill Flester, prexy of the Indus
trial League, declares that on an
average of 5000 see games in his
circuit daily and Heinie Webb, an
official in the Departmental
League, and manager of the
Union Printers, says that his
loop has enjoyed unusual large
attendance at practically every
contest.
Games Interesting
Yesterdays games in the
leagues were rather i--teresting,
despite the fact many runs were
compiled.
Henry Gichner's Red Sox
snapped out of their slump to
come from behind to down the
Blue Ribbons in the Industrial
League, "a. Spencer Usilton,
of the winners, was inclined to
be wild. He struck Centerfielder
Tonker, of the losers, right on
the side of his head ana Third
Baseman Hurley in the back.
Tom jenkins, coach of the Red
Sox, evidently thought that Usil-
ton was not himself, because he
sent Lefty" Brown to the mound
following Spencer's wi dn S S.
Brown pitched good ball the rest
Of the way.
COker Slugs Ball
Coker, of the winners, led both
teams at the plate, getting four
for four. Beckett, giant catcher of
the Ribbons, wasn't far behind
Coker. socking three for three.
Willis Fisher who learned his
baseball at Eastern High School,
hit one of the longest homers seen
on the Ellipse this year yesterday.
He was playing with Bureau of In
vestigation against the Union
Printers when he drove one of
Hurler Heaney's pitches from the
East Ellipse to the South EllipSe.

BAER PR|MED
FOR MAX

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 6
The fight fans are going to get a
surprise when Baer steps into the
ring against Max Schmeling in
the Yankee Stadium Thursday
night. They are going to look on
the picture fighter of all time. He
is, in appearance, at least, the
man O. war of the ring. Lean as
a greyhound, 1.-the as a ballet
dancer and biceped like a wrestler,
he makes the ordinary man feel he
had getter take up his daily dozen
again.
Max is deadly in earnest this
time. The playboy Broadway
knew two years ago has changed
to determined young man who
has come to believe that he has a
special mission to avenge all Jews
by beating the German. Says
Max:
"If Schmeling is the real
champ he thinks he is, he'll
carry the fight to me, and if he
does he'll find me meeting him
more than halfway. Later he'll
drop his hands, and then
bang!-Over goes the old pay
off like this.
II don't think he can take all
I'll hand out for 10 rounds.
New York is going to see new
Baer this time. I've learned a
lot and if I can't lick the
Dutchman, I'll be the most sur
prised man in the world.
"After I beat Schmeling, the
title will be a cinch because
don't think either Carnera or
Sharkey is as tough as the
Dutchman."
So that's Max almost on the
eve of battle, confident, hopeful,
in perfect condition, bubbling over
with health and spirits.
LAKE SWANNANOA, N. j.,
June 6.-Max Schmeling will fin
ish training here this afternoon.
The former champion will box
two rounds with Tommy De-
stefano and two more with the
robust Lou Barba from Green
Wich Villaga.
When he takes off his gloves
after mixing with Barba he will
have completed more than five
weeks Of training for what he
considers one of the most i'm
portant fights in this country.

PETE SARRON GIVES WEIGHT TO FARR TONIGHT|
AMATEUR RULE
MAKES CHILD
A PRO
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Inconsistent humans, as rule,
are thoughtless, thanklesS and
cruel.
Witness what inconsistent,
thoughtless, thankleSS and cruel
humans did to 10-year-old Stanley
Greene, I'd, of Leesburg, Va.
Recently, at Devon, Pa, where
is held the annual Devon Horse
Show and Country Fair, one OF
the big-time events of the Ameri,
can Horse Show Association cir.
cult, officials in charge of the
show declared the 10-year-old
youngSter a professional.
Just prior to the Devon show,
young Greene appeared in the
ring of the National Capital Horse
Show, another of the big-time
events of the American Horse
Show Association circuit. Off
cials in charge of the National
Capital declared young Greene an
amateur. He was permitted to
ride, and he carried off several
prizes.
Rely on Rule
Naturally, the question arises
why was young Greene an anna
teuh in the Washington show and
yet professional in the Devon
ShoW?"
Also, why was young Greene per-
mitted to show in the ring over
a period of several years if he was
a professional?
The officials who declared the
youngster a professional relied
upon a written rule of the asso-
citation. The rule clearly states
that the husband or wife of a
professional is also a professional,
as are the children of such
parents until such time as the
children declare they want to be-
come amateurs.
Stanley Greene, 1st, father of
Stanley Greene, End. was pro
fessional steeplechase jockey,
years ago. He has not followed
that occupation in years.
An Odd Law
If the associations idea anent
professionalism were carried into
everyday life the sons of pro-
fessional baseball players would
be professionals until such time
as they declared they wanted to
be amateurs. Daughters of pro-
fessional baseball players also
would be professionals until such
time as they declared they
wanted to be amateurs.
However, in the case of Stanley
Greene, End, didn't the child
declare he wanted to become an
amateur when he appeared in the
ring of the National Capital
Horse Show with the knowledge
and consent of the officials?
Looking at this matter in any
light one will, it was heartless,
cruel thing to declare young
Greene a professional.
The whole affair merely adds
fuel to the fire which has ragged
in democratic America for years
in this matter of what con-
stitutes an amateur.

ARENA CLOSE
BRINGS ACES
TOGETHER

For the first time since he
made his debut here last Febru
ary, Pete Sarron will drive away
In the windup tonight at Port
ner's Arena laboring under a
weight handicap.
The Syrian flash from Birming
ham, Ala, clashes with Johnny
Farr in ringing down the indoor
season at the Alexandria Arena
of Punch.
Sarron had all the better of
at when it came to weight against
Frankie De Angelo, Benny
Schwartz, Mkt Gelb and once
against Tommy Paul.
Gives Away Weight
Many fans are today wondering
whether Pete can give away three
pounds, and still defeat such a
skilled ringster as Farr. He is
certainly taking a chance, if moth
ing else.
Yesterday Farr weighed in at
131 pounds. He has promised to
make 1870 at 2 o'clock this after
noon. If Jimmy Erwin, Sarron's
manager, insists, Farr will have
to do a little sweating in order
to make the weight.
On the other hand, if Erwin
puts his stamp of approval on
Johnny's poundage, he will go to
the post under a four-pound han
dicap in weight.
Sarron is anxious to Windup
the season here with bang. He
may even waive the weight ques-
tion just to prove that he can
whip anything from 1876 pounds
to 1872. If he does accomplish the
feat he will leave local fans and
a.stound the inside boxing world
with his job.
Farr Quitting Ring
Johnny Farr is completing his
last year in the ring. He drop
ped flock of money in the re-
cent stock market crash, and is
battling to get some of it back.
He wants one more shot at Kid
Chocolate and another at Benny
Bass, and then he will call it
day.
Prelims tonight offer Chief
Perry Knowles and Frankie De
Angelo in the semi-windup. Six
