speculator, N. r., Sept. is.- (UP)-Gen. John J. Phelan, chair man of the New York boxing com mission, will watch Max Baer work out to-day. Commission doctors also i'll have look at the former champions physical condition.
 The Baer camp rapidly is be- coming convinced that Max is rounding into top shape. After spirited four-round boxing session with two partners yesterday, Max eighed 211.
 The manner in which he smashed the 65-pound bag showed his hands, injured during the loss of his title to Jimmy Braddock, are fully healed.
 Irked at reports that Louis had said Maxie was much too fond of his profile to expose 1t to any punches yesterday and as result suffered a bloody nose. George Turner did the damage and after two rounds against him, Baer turned the heat on Abe Feldman, second ranking light-heavyweight in the country.
 Baer floored Feldman in the second round with a stiff left--the first time Feldman had hit the floor in S4 fights.
