Baer Appears to Outclass Braddock

throwing his punches, but they come
across with q whip and q slash to
either head or body, and, when they
land, something has to bend, If not
break.
The champion is arm-loose, and
that means hand speed. There isn't
q sign of tightness or tension about his
work and his reflexes are now at their
best for hair-trigger shooting.
Baer doesn't care where the target
waits-head or stomach. He was told
that he couldn't hit either Schmeling
or Camera around the head with
those looping hooks. yet he caught
both in the first round, and the rest
was only a matter Of how much longer.
Braddock Is dead game and willing.
but none too fast. He isn't one of the
quickest thinkers who ever moved into
action, where Baer Is chock-full Of
ring craft and ring cunning. with the
instructive reactions Of big cat.
A fast, smart boxer might tie
Baer up, but any fighter who
comes to him swinging Is going
to step into the middle OF shell
fire on the jump.
Braddock has been rated a desperate
man. But don't overlook the fact that
Baer has more than half q million
dollars waiting around the corner, with
such prospects as Schmeling and Louis
in sight when he gets by this assign
ment. And the Livermore Larruper
can use much more cash than he has
in the bank today.
Where would Max Baer. the ex-
champion be?" he asked today. HE
would be nobody going nowhere. So
Baer Is going to take care Of Baer.
Don't worry about that"
The roar Of the crowd will 60
to Braddock, and Baer Is set for
this. 1T couldn't be any other
way" Max says, "but that part
Of II won't bother me . Bit"
Somewhere between the first and
third round one of Baer's fast, looping
hooks should reach the target, and,
when that happens, the curtain will
be on its way down. The miracle road
is a happy highway, but unfortunately
in, this somewhat uncertain life it
usually comes to an abrupt end. Raw
courage can go only so far against
bigger guns. The race may not be
to the swift nor the battle to the
strong, but at least that Is where to
look.

BIC FIGHT IDEAS
STILL HOLD HERE
Turner.Ahearn Would Bring
More Bigwigs, but Put
Ban on Canzoneri.
BY JOHN b. KELLER.

w YASHINGTON'S premier
M boxing promotion concern
v v won't be licked.
Joe Turner and Goldie
Ahearn got only about enough out
of the $25,ooo Canzoneri-Klick fiasco
last Monday night to keep them in
postage stamps the remainder Of the
Summer-it was an expensive fight
and the cuts for the fighters and the
Shrine, that sponsored the show, were
so big-but they plan to bid again in
the near future for the patronage Of
the Capitals fight fanciers.
The Turner-Ahearn combine hopes
to line up some big numbers for the
outdoor season. but will side-step one
of the flst-flinging clan as 1t en-
deavors to negotiate show.
No telephone or telegraph tolls will
be wasted in communicating with
Tony Canzoneri.
The lightweight champion of the
world is "out" so far as Washington
is concerned, say the local ring i'm
presorios. Officially, Tony is title
holder, but he did not fight like one
in the Shrine set-up here, and the
promoters feel the Capital ringworms
are quite willing to get along without
him.
Some Of Possibilities.
AS THEY discuss possible programs
= Turner and Ahearn give the
names of several biggies in the pugi-
listic profession. They are talking
Barney Ross, who recently got back
his welter crown from Jimmy McLar-
min, and Joe Louis, Detroit's sensa-
tional colored heavy. And they would
like. to get another match here for
Klick.
frankie already has professed his
willingness to come back to Grifnth
Stadium for q bout, even one In which
his Junior lightweight title would be
at stake. Klick probably would draw
well in another appearance here, for
he established himself as q favorite
with Capital fans in his bout with
Canzoneri.
The vast majority of the local box
ing followers who saw that engage
ment still are convinced that Kick
won over Cansoneri and that he got
the rawest kind of deal in the decision
against him.
While Turner and Ahearn would
like to show Klick here In o defense
OF his title, they would be about as
well pleased If they could bring Ross
along as the opponent of the junior
lightweight leader. Actually, there is
little difference in weight between
the junior lightweight and welter
champs and it should make cork
ing match.

lights at Madison Square
Gardens Long Island bowl.
1t will be delivered when James J.
Braddock leaves his corner and starts
throwing leather in the direction Of
Max Baer's chin.
The miracle began to unfold Just
year ago, when Braddock reeled up
from the floor of the same ring, grog-
gy, dazed and apparently a beaten
man, to knock out Corn Griffin and
start his fog-ridden march to the
challenger's goal.
He win stand within a few feet Of
the spot where his body fell q year
ago In a preliminary bout. when he
was just another fellow on a card
picked to help kill time. The return
trail was blocked-the dream was over
when some fighting instinct lifted
the Jerseyman to his feet and sent
him once more on his way to the
most amazing comeback the leather
trade has ever seen.
No one Of the thousands who
saw Braddock in the dust and
dirt that night ever dreamed
that, a year later, they would
be watching the same fighter
ripping into Max Baer for the
heavyweight title.
Rated as battered relic OF the ring
year ago, Braddock, the challenger,
stands where Corbett, Fitzsimmons,
Jeffries, Burns, johnson, Willard,
Dempsey, TInney, Schmeling, Shar-
key, Camera and Baer made their re-
spective sorties on the big title and
the main coronet.
1t has been a matter of 43 years
since James j. Corbett was q 5-to-1
outsider against John Lawrence Sull-
van-approximately the same odds
that James ]. Braddock will face as
he steps into the range of Max Baer's
two fast, hard-hitting fists.
But the grand old tub from Boston
was on his way out back in 1892 and
Corbett was the younger, faster man,
with more ring science than any
heavyweight since has ever known or
shown.

What Chance Has Braddock,

Wnat Chance Has Bradd0ck?
IN THE face of all preliminary re-
turns, Braddock appears to be
outclaSsed-outclassed in the way of
youth and punching power-in dura-
bility and height and reach-in ring
smartness, craft or cunning-in almost
everything but gameness and des-
peration.
And the man who isn't afraid must
always be given an outside chance,
Beaten from 18 to 20 times in pre-
vious fights, driven to the docks and
the relief rolls, ranked around the
bottom Of the has-beens, king of the
forgotten men, Braddock must carry
some hidden spark out of the ordinary.
On his record, on what he has
shown. on what he seems to carry
in the way Of armament and am
munition, he doesn't rate even q
forl0rn chance.
But fellow who has ridden down
so many forlorn chances. who has
hacked his way from oblivion to the
cnailenger's corner, can't be discarded
as completely hopeless.
Bra0oock says he intends to crowd
Baer from the start. His whole train
ing campaign has been along these
lines-shove in, start punching, and
make Max fight minutes of every
round. II Braddock follows out this
campaign, it will be short but full OF
action. This will be one time where
not even George Washington could
save Braddock.
II the game Jerseyman is lucky
enough to land, we may have Q
minor duplicate Of the Dempsey -Firpc
show-one Of those wham-wham
siam-bang whirligigs that may last
only q short time, but something tina:
viii produce q good, steamy melo-
drama for o round or two.
Yet 1t Is dificult TO stretch the
imagination far enough to picture
Baer on the foor-much less staying
there.

over the most damaging punch first.
Baer can Withstand a blow that would
knock the ordinary fighter stiff. Brad

may not be able to weather as hard a

To sum up, Baer has all the naturai

the other hand. plans to 60 into the
ring lighter than he was for the fight
with Carnera. Max expects to weigh
about 20S pounds.
After they weigh in, both men are
planning to rest, and each will pack
away pretty big meal around dinner
time. This will be transformed into
energy by the time they enter the ring
at 10 o'clock.
So far as size is concerned, there is
not much difference between the two
fighters. Both are known to be able to
take it," and both are stiff punchers.
OF the two, Baer is the harder hitter.
Indications are that this will be
slam-bang battle. with not much
science on tap. Neither Of these fel-
lows is famed for being q particularly
fancy boxer, although both know the
