yesterday expecting to seize quantity
Of drugs.
Weakened by Hunger.
There had been drugs: one of the
Chinese told police, but the last of the
load, about $4,000 worth, was taken
out Saturday.
Huddled in darkness behind the
locked door of a basement room, the
smuggl1rS' live cargo" were weak and
thin. They had been there two weeks,
one who spoke English said, aud their
captors had fed them sparingly with
rice.
All said they were waiting for friends
to bring the money needed TO obtain
their release from the SmugglerS.

Hart told police he was hired to
guard the Chinese. They were shipped
in the hold of freighter from Trini-
dad and landed at Norfolk, Va, he
said and then brought by night in a

UzCUDUN AND
SCHMEL|NC IN
DRAW BATTLE

BARCELONA, Spain, May Ia.
U.P)-Boxing experts are convinced
that Max Schmeling of Germany
former heavyweight champion, will
not disprove the old adage:: "They
never come back"
The saw the German Dempsey
suffer his third straight reversal
in come back campaign yester-
day when held to a 12-round draw
by 35-year old Pauline Uzcudun,
the same basque wood chopper
whom he defeated decisively in
1929 and scared to the champion
ship.
After losing his title to Jack
Sharkey in 1882, Schmeling was
knocked out by Make Baer last
summer, and impressively out
pointed during the winter by young
Steve HamaS.
Schmeling entered the ring
distinct favorite yesterday. Paul
mos terrific beating at the hands
of champion Primo Carnera in
Rome last year was still fresh in
all minds.
Most of the experts and many
of the spectators thought Schmel-
ing had shaded the basque and
earned the decision. However, the
announcement of the draw was
popular with the crowd.
Taking advantage of his 20
pound pull in weights, Pauline
rushed out of his corner at the
opening gong and launched a slug
ging barrage at the Germans head
and body. His aggressiveness won
the first two rounds. Schmeling
rallied to win the third with ef-
fective counter punching. They
fought on even terms in the fourth
and fifth, but Make took the ag-
gressive in the sixth and shook up
the Basque with several smashing
long range blows to the head.
Pauline battered Schmeling's body
in the seventh and resumed this
work in the eighth until a whiStl-
ing right hook gashed his left
brow A long right gashed Uzcu-
dun's left cheek In the ninth and
he was bleeding profusely from
both cuts, but still fighting savage
ly. He held his own in the 10th.
Pauline fought desperately in the
last two rounds and jolted the
former champion several times with
stiff hooks to the chin. The Bas-
que's final rally apparently gained
him a draw.
Schmeling weighed 1877; Uzcudun
208.
