New York, June 5.-(P-You have
read and heard no little Of MAX
Baer's proclivities as a playboy.
Too much attention has been PAID
this unimportant and, to me, unn-
teresting phase in the discussion OF
, the Californian's l5-round Champion
ship contest with Primo Camera IN
the Garden Bowl on June IA
When young man gains the prom
inence which has come to Baer.
everything he does Is picked up tor
comment. Everything he does IN .
social way Is exaggerated.
A youngster like Baer should play
q little-get some relaxation and re-
creation. You can't expect chap Of
Is to have the mental angle Of . man
Of IS. That wouldn't do either In the
ring or in the world at large.
What If Baer has played bit too
hard? One as young and as big and
strong as the former butcher boy can
shake off a lot Of loose living in 10
weeks of training. And Max Adel-
bert Is glutton for the grind, once
he buckles down to 1t.
Ever since Baer stopped Max
Schmeling, it has been written and
said that the Livermore Larruper is
"throwback to Jack Dempsey" That
flatters me. It Is one Of the principal
reasons why I have watched Baer so
closely. I don't want the "throwback
to Jack Dempsey" to throw Jack
Dempsey down.
Baer A Natural
Baer has every vital quality for ring
success, and not the least important
Is his nonchalance. It is almost i'm
possible to get him flustered. Some
times the lad seems to have ice water
III his veins.
You will recollect how Baer worked
schmeling around. getting the Teuton
IN the right position for his attack
and. above all, disconcerting him.
Schmeling was methodical mittman
the one-track variety. One Of Baer's
main detectives was to throw the
stolid schlager off his stride.
I have little doubt but that Baer
Will operate similarly against Camera.
You will find that, contrary to gen.
eral belief. Camera IS not as strong
Physically as Baer.
And you will find that Baer's quick
wit, as we'll as his quick fists, will have
al: important bearing on the outcome.
Baer Is not the pugilistic Pagliacci
that he IS painted Frequently IN the
past, when he appeared to be clown
Ing, Max Adelbert only was laugh
ing the other fellow out Of attacking
while he was tired. He is as good an
actor as he is a fighter.
Env;es Fighters
contemplate the battle between
Camera and Baer with q great deal Of
envy.
I envy Baer his tremendous oppor-
tunity-and his youth.
I envy Carnera his thrill in defend
ing the most coveted Championships
against his first challenger Of WORTH
and also his youth.

guy. Far from it. But at SO Won are
