Braddock-B aer Fight Fails
To Stir Popular Interest

Braddock does not figure to win
but the bunch in this corner is that
he will make IL interesting for Baer

stamina and punching ability TO go

ing TO lose and everything TO gain

ever he gets a chance.
The longer the fight lasts. the
better Braddock's chances will be.
even II he has TO get up off the
floor a few times to convince Baer
he can take II" and come back.
Baer In Condition
The suspicion that Baer may not
be in the best of condition or that
his hands will be subject to injury
is not well-founded. For all his
playboy activities and super-confi-
dence, the champion is smart
enough not 10 er-estimate any
fighter with Braddock's courage and
determination. He Is not only In
good condition but he probably will
discard his wisecracking. once he is
face-to-face with Braddock in the
ring.
The threatening talk from Baer's
camp about the selection Of a
referee is not 10 be taken serious
". It's the old stuff. The cham
pion's manager will abide by the
boxing commissions selection and
like II. although the protests in ad-
vance may be sufficient to keep
Arthur Donovan from getting the
assignment. Jack Dempsey hardly
can get the call. either. because Of
his close association in the past
with the champion.

During the four years since 1891,

PITTS LIKELY

Ex-Convict May Appear In
Hearing Before
Lands

ALBANY, N. Y, June l2.-RJ-
a plea that Alabama" Pitts, ban
med from professional baseball be-
cause he Is an ex-convict, be per-
nIitted 70 argue his own case before
KeneSaw Mountain Lands was
made Wednesday by Johnny Evers,
general manager of the Albany
Senators OF the International
league.
Evers. who signed the former
Sing Sing prison athlete TO q con-
tract that was declared void BY the
executive committee Of tine Nation
al Association OF Minor Professional
Baseball leagues, said ne wqS hope
tut lands would hold a hearing
oE the case.
Pitts has had no hearing" he
said. and not n word was spoken
by him or by the Albany club in his
benalf at any meeting OF the ex-
ecutive committee for the reason
there was no hearing.
We had expected a hearing be.
fore the executive committee. but
were given none"
The Albany club appealed the
decision TO Lands. baSebaups high
commissioner. and a full record OF
the aSe was sent TO Chicago Tues
day night by Warren G. Giles,
chairman Of the executive commit
tee.
Evers Is considering asking Gov
ernor Herbert H. Lehman for a
'fun pardon for Pitts 70 permit

an adverse decision.
Arthur II. Lyman, Massachusetts
commissioner Of correction, and
Warden Joseph II. Brophy OF Au-
burn prison joined those who have
declared themselves IN favor OF
Pitts.
, 1935-06-12

IT APPEARS 10 yr. obdt. COR
respondent that the famous Ala
bama" Pitts case Is a situation
brought on by undue bally-hoo and
does not constitute a sincere effort
" give the ex-convict a chance.
The background To the affair Is
this. Pitts, who was released from
Sing Sing last week. is q fair base
bal player, and Albany, member OF
the International League, attempt
ed 70 sign him 70 q contract.
The Albany club. trying 70 cap
italize on the situation. generated
vast quantities OF bally-hoo con-
corning Its Sing Sing prospect. The
matter toTcibly was brought TO the
attention OF baseball authorities
and fans throughout the country.
AS everyone expected. the Ma
tional Association OF Minor Pro-
fesSiOnal Baseball Leagues declared
the Pitts contract null and void.
To have permitted the contract TO
60 through would have been a severe
blow 10 the national paStime, so far
as the rocking chair fleet Is con-
cerned.
II Albany and Manager Johnny
Evers had been sincere IN their ef-
forts to aid PittS-and there seems
to be no doubt but that he l. a
deserving youngSter $50 they would
not have created that bally-ho0.
Pitts could have had a chance In
organized baseball by signing quiet
IL without anything having been
SAID about his soiourn in Sing Sing.
More than one ex-convict has
played professional ball. and there
will be more Of them-but not 10

II the fingerprtnts Of everyone
In organized baseball were taken

But public opinion Us against II.
and baSeball's shoW-window policy
must be thumbs-down when a rul-
ing Is forced by bally-hoo as has
been the case in this instance.
AS THE matter now stands, Pitts
likely will become an embsttered
youngster. He has paid his debt TO
society and feels that ne should be
riven a fair shake. But, due 70
AIbany's efforts to capitalize on
the situation. he will not get the
opportunity he deserves.
You will find ex-convictS In many
lines OF sport. but they got there on
their merits as competitors and
not on a wave Of publicity.
