showing that Louis would get $217,-

that Baer's share, IS per cent, would

"Yeh, I'll guess I'll be able to

But it seemed a task almost i'm
possible of achievement after the
manner in which the Cubs tunc-
toned yesterday.
Even Manager Charlie Grimm,
who has bene loathe to make a pre-

The truth in Grimm's words was
backed with action yesterday in a

Twenty thousand persons were in

Cavarretta and Warneke

shot at helpless, exhausted, thor
oughly beaten man. l doubt that
such a spectacle would have been
pleasing even to a two dollar bettor
who had guessed wrong.
If Baer showed the Fido it was
before he came to the ring. Moth
ing mattered much after he was in
there. If he quit it was long be-
fore he climbed through the ropes.
He knew in his own heart before
he came down from the mountains
whether he had chance.
A ND from the moment he ap-
L n peared in the ring he knew that
he had no chance. He was whipped
mentally before he started. 1t was
just a question of how long his
physical stamina would last.
Measured by rounds it didn't last
long. But take a look at the mo-
ton pictures. Count the blows Baer
stopped. We did. Loosely. the total
is around $50.
That's lot of punches. And re-
member they came from the fists
of the astonishing Brown Bomber,
who is being hailed as possibly the
greatest heavyweight of all time. On
these figures, then, the Bomber is
either very much overrated as a
puncher or Baer didn't quit shame
lessly. My conclusion is that Baer
came into the ring convinced he
couldn't win and stopped when he
realized he was right in the first
place.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-Did Max
IN Baer chuck it in his fight with
Joe Louis? That seems to be the
only part of the fight the folks aren't
agreed on. Did he quit? Could he
have gone on?
These questions aren't flattering
to Baer. They are f1attering to
Louis. They mean there was moth
ing in the Negroes performance to
criticise. Even the losers must con-
cede his greatness. For venomous
comfort they turn to Baer and the
disappointments he spawned.
Did Baer quit? Could he have
gone on? Let's ignore the very stout
probability that the So bettorS are
loudest in asking these questions. To
the extent that he probably could
have got up and gone on for a few
seconds more Baer betrayed his fol-
lowers.
AS I wrote yesterday, Baer was
through in the first round. He was
through after he hit the Negro with
everything he had (Which wasn't
much) and the Negro came back
and all but scalped him with rights
and lefts. Baer showed certain
stolid gameneSs in the second round.
He was dead ready to call it an eve
ming in the third when the bell rang
while he was sitting in the resin
Some of the boys wrote, THE bell
saved him."
THIS recalled Ring Lardner'S
i crack at Toledo. Jess Willard
had been knocked down seven
times in the first round. Dempsey
was in the process of completing
the destruction when the bell
rang. THE papers say the bell
saved him." commented Lardner.
Don't let EN- kid you. The bell
ruined him" And it did; Willard
had to come out for more and he
was barbecued before it ended.
The same thing happened to Baer.
He was perfectly willing to call it
a profitable evening as he sat on
the canvas when the bell rang
ending the third round. He didn't
want any more of Louis. He had
taken enough to realize he was
badly overmatched. So when he
was dropped for the second time in
this round he was resigned to the
end.
WITHOUT being able to know
w for sure I have notion
Baer hated to answer the bell for
the fourth round. He had been
punched around so severely by the
Negro he must have known he was
coming out for more of the same
and by now it was plain he didn't
like it and didn't want it. But what
was there to do? The bell rang.
Baer came out. Baer the iron
man, Baer the killer. Baer hadn't
been an iron man in two years. And
ditto Baer the killer. So what bust
ness did he have even in coming out
for the round? None. But he had
to. The job called for it. He didn't
want to. There were a thousand
other things he would rather be do
ing at the moment.

GOOD GOLF
 By BiU KiSh
A sTYMIE

If a beginner will place a ball on the ground and just in front of it a foot away. place another, he will then have a stymie. The trick is to make his ball jump over the other one-a feat that is not at all difficult. Take the mashie or a mashie niblic and hit your ball, permitting the club to run along the ground but not actually scraping it. Your ball will jump over the other one. Make no attempt to get the ball into the air, as the loft of the club will attend to this. If one will practice this shot a great deal he will learn the art of stroking the ball properly. All stroking is accomplished in this manner, from the driver on down to the butter. This also teaches one the proper follow, through and makes headway in learn ing the secrets of the game.
