Y HAMBURG, March 9.-Since all
is not beer and skittles, Max
Schmeling is 5-to-1 favorite
to whip young Steve Hamas
IN their 10-round bout tomorrow.
The odds reflect German opinion
that the former Penn State foot ball
star has trained in far too lackadaisi-
cal fashion to meet the deadly serious
Schmeling on even terms.
Steve not only has shocked German
boxing critics by taking his glass of
beer when he wanted it, he has aston
ished them with his trips to the the
ater and opera house.
Whether or not his condition actu-
ally has suffered thereby is open to
question. Neither he nor his manager.
walrus-mustached Charley Harvey,
has shown any lack of confidence in
the Americans ability to score his
second victory over the former worlds
champion.
Schmeling, supremely confident that
he eventually will regain the title he
lost to Max Baer, has come through
q long, hard training campaign in top
form. He knows he must win this
bout decisively if he is to bounce back
into the heavyweight championship
situation.

Fight in Poor Arena.

~HOUGH Hamas punched out a
decision over the German in
their first meeting in New York.
the vast majority of the $4,000 fans
who will see the fight apparently are
convinced Schmeling will win. There
was a noticeable lack of Hamas money
in sight despite the attractive odds.
Those odds, incidentally, do not
seem to portray the true picture.
Hamas, despite his unorthodox man

in his boxing drills. He has belab-
