H0na0S Beats Make
10 of IL Rounds, Both
Bleeding at Finish
D- nAUYC VUAYSKR
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. IA
Once in the life Of every defunct
heavyweight ch a m p ion there
comes q time when head-shaking
members Of the trade gather
around and gaze, more in rebuke
than in sorrow, upon the mans
professional cadaver.
Corbett, FitzsimmonS, JeffrleS,
even Dempsey to some degree,
qualified at one time or another
as the guest Of honor, or corpse.
but this is the StrangeSt requiem
Of all.
It is the valedictory Of an e.
champion who never was very
good and who last night was teT'
rible.
Max Schmeling. the German,
was only a caricature and an ct.
figy, yet as he lost 10 out Of ID
rounds to Steve Hamas, it was diff
ficult to believe that some once
spoke of greatness.
One eye, the left, was nothing
but g. bloody blur. His face was
puffed, his skin a patch Of un-
slightly blotches. HamaS himself
was bleeding all over the premises
when the end came but nobody
among a Sell-out crowd Of 1900
gave him any great heed.
Only the Winner
After all he was only the winner
and at a time like this it's the
loser who receives the attention,
most of it unwelcome.
SchmeIing w&S unbelievedly bad.
He was so bad that I gave him
only one round, outright, in the
entire IL. He was so thoroughly
unimpreSs:ve in the sight Of all
that he was voted out of the de.
ciSion unanimously. Once, in the
ninth round, he was rocking and
reeling on his heels, ready to go.
Twice, he was almost ruled out Of
the fight on q technical knockout.
the official medico visiting his cor
ner before the tenth and again BE-
fore the eleventh round to gaze
obviously at his raw and outraged
eye.
Yet he stood in his hotel suite
this morning and said he Just
couldn't get started, that he'd do
better the next time. There was
nothing I felt that wanted to say
in return but I'll say 1t now.
There ought to be a law.

It's a well-established fact that

therefore arranged an Ollie Pacini

The race, feature OF the New
York A. c. carnival in Madison
Square Garden Saturday night,
has gained national attention be-
cause it brings together the pick
Of the milers-Glenn Cunningham,
Of Kansas University; Bill Bon
thron, of Princeton, and Gene
VenZke, Of Penn.
The trouble, in Robertson's opin-
ion, will be the failure Of any one
Of the formidable trio to "step out
and set the pace"
They'll be in there watching
each other. Venzke has gone
out to set the pace in the past
but he won't this time"
Comparing the three track wiz
ards, Robertson drew the follow
ing conclusion:
The Washington times., 1934-02-14
cunningham has more speed,

cunningham has more speed,
as much strength, and too much
experience for his rivals, and
therefore has an edge that will
will carry him to victory.

the customers, thousands Of
whom, no doubt, have made
train and hotel reservations to
include February az. Many, Of
these, because Of personal and
business reasons, will be unable
to adjust their plans to the con-
venience Of the new fight date,
February 28.
Confusion Is Great
The confusion among the
railroads and hotels, who do no
little cooperating in staging
these fight extravaganzas,
must be terrific when these
poStponementS occur in the
middle Of q winter season in
Florida when every available
Pullman reservation and hotel
room Is booked solid until well
into the middle Of March.
Taint fair, I say, and were
I q cash customer I would be
just q little wrath over such
a postponement. But in that
Tn not q cash customer, I'm
speaking for them.
Even when refunds are made
for tickets which original pur.
chaSerS are unable to use, the
commotion and inconvenience
is intolerable. Bad weather,
the reason offered for the five
day postponement OF the Knight
Rosenbloom fight which was q
financial failure, ought to be
the only valid excuse for post.
poning q championship fight
which has had SO much tom
tom beating as has the Car.
nera-Loughran affair. I could
never see that postponementS
at all aided unsatisfactory ad-
vance seat sales. I believe they
have quite the opposite effect
both on the publc's interest
and the mental attitude Of the
principals.
A Cold Issue
There is nothing colder than
q postponed fight except an
airport in a blizzard. A claim
is being advanced In Miami
that q horse show dance, q
special dog race, a charity en-
tertainment and some swell do
ingS at Palm Beach the night
of George Washington's birth
day anniversary would. hurt at
tendance were the fight held q
week from tomorrow night.
Isn't it true that February %
is always q busy night in any
cline? In the case Of Miami
there isn't a night in the winter
season between dog racing,
jai lai, night clubs and the
very active social calendar when
some conflict with a champion
ship fight, or any other kind,
wouldn't occur. Why, then,
was the scrap ever booked for
February 20? Holiday nights
are notoriously bad ones for
sporting events the land over,
and have been for years.
Knows Better Now
Every function that the
Garden now declares will
quarrel with its original date for
the fight was known about and
called to the Gardens attention
publically by a Miami sports
editor early in January.
I guess they thought the
Camera Loughran m e ting
would be big enough to pale
these other events into insight
icance. I also guess the box Of
flee indicator has registered low
pressure.
But it is their business, not
mine and the only reason I.
harangue is because don't
think many people who have
made their plans to be in Miami
February 20 can well rearrange
their leaves Of absence from
their normal haunts, what with
employers and families and q
dozen other elements to be
taken into consideration. 81.

citizenry that puts over a big

Chevrolet To Quote
Car Prices AT Door

Detroit, Mich.-A new automo-
bile merchandising policy whereby
the purchaser will be apprised of
the full cost of his automobile de-
livered in front of his door, rather
than having to rely on ambiguous
#. o. b." prices, was announced
here as effective Immediately in the
entire Chevrolet organization by
William E. Holler, general sales
manager of the company. A cam
paign is now being launched among
dealers and retail statesmen in all
parts of the United States instruct
ing them in the new policy and
apprising them Of the suggested
delivered price to be quoted in their
respective communities.
As al instance Of what the new
procedure means to car buyers, Mr..
Holler pointed out that while list
prices on the comranys new 1884
models average SO higher than in
1888, the actual increase IN cost to
the purchaser in New York City is
only $40. While the list, Oh f. o.
b." price, throughout the United
States averages IA per cent above
1893, the delivered costs actually
average only eight per cent higher.
