Baer's Angle
Listen" said Baer, as his wor-

reinsurance, I'm fighting Louis
next Tuesday night, not these spar
ring partners. I don't have 70 lick
them. They don't fight like Louis
will fight. I'm getting In shape my
way. Stop worrying"
1t is a matter Of record that Baer
was terrible at Atlantic City pre-
pairing for MISUNDERSTANDING un-
interested.
He would box n rounds. never
work up a sweat and lose all II to
his sparring partners. But he was
ball OF fire when they rang that
starting bell on him against Schmel-
ing.
One or the reasons for Baer's re-
cent poor showings is the crouch he
has adopted, a queer turtle-like sort
OF a stance from which he can
neither hit nor defend himself. Ex-
perts thinking Of the speed and
d~ecisiveneSs OF Louis left hook and
ririt cross shudder as Baer floun-
ders around in il, taking everything
his Sparring partners throw.
THAT crouch?" said one Of his
helpers Wednesday. What's the
use OF kidding ourselves. That's Just
TO give Louis something TO think
about. He'll be looking for IL. In
stead Baer will come out swinging
