Fight

NEW YORK, July 25.-With Sc
lection of a site apparently the
only major point still to be set
tied, a heavyweight championship
fight between Jimmy Braddock
and Max Schmeling this Septem-
Der, under the joint auspices of
Mike Jacobs and Madison Square
Garden, seemed assured today.
Weary of endless controversy,
the Garden and Jacobs agreed to
forget their differences yesterday
and make the title go jointly
promoted affair. The Garden has
Braddock tied to a contract, while
Mike Jacobs has exclusive call on
the services of Joe Louis destroyer.
The Garden representatives
want to hold the bout in their
bowl in Long Island City while
Jacobs insists it be held in the
Yankee Stadium. where the Louis
Schmeling upset was staged.
Both Braddock and Schmeling
are said to be averse to fighting in
the bowl, feeling it is TOO far out
of town and something Of a
"jinx." No champion has ever
successfully defended his title
there.
Braddock has already gone into
training for the battle at Loeb

Deck Favored
To Defeat
StoCkIinski
By GINO SINH

Yesterdays torrential downpour
was something of a god-Send to
Pat Deck, top-seeded entry in the
Public Parks tennis tournament,
which is winding up at the Rock
Greek courts.
The extra days rest gave Pat a
chance to recover from a gruelling
week Of tennis and today when he
tackles the tough Ray Stocklinski,
third seeded player, he will be in
real shape. StocklinSki will have
to play doubles right after the sin
giles and will have to conserve his
energy.
Under the circumstances, Pat
rates a slight edge, but not enough
to make a StocklinSki win a gold
standard upset.
Allie and Nate Gutenberg will
settle their family differences
shortly after the Deck-Stocklinski
tuSSle. Nate is favored, but Allie is
growing tired of losing to his older
brother, so anything can happen
and likely will.

Prime FavOrite Here
The Ripper" is a prime favorite
locally and his thousands Of local
friends are pleased with his senSa-
tional performance in the national
public links tourney.
He has gone farther than any
local representative in a national
amateur championship, exceeding
the feats Of Roland r. Mackenzie,
George Voigt and n Houghton.
It is almost certain that Rippy
will join a local club upon his
return here and thus become
eligible for the national amateur
championship. Only members OF
clubs affiliated with the United
States Golf Association are eligible
for the amateur.
Testimonial Planned
Too, Rippy will have some sort
of an affair in his honor, possibly
a testimonial banquet. Such was
suggested yesterday by Harry
Graham, manager at East Po-
tomac Park.
Gordon Hittenmark, popular
radio announcer, was groggy to-
day.
And he can blame it all on

Hittenmark looked at so many

fight can do a lot to
help Phil Fur on his
phgilistic way, if he will
view it in the proper light.
sAnd if I have made a cor

p6rament and disposition, I
think he will profit by his
experience Of Wednesday
night, last.
For 80 minutes he had before
him, the spectacle of one Of the
very best little fighting men in
the country, in this era or any
other. and if Fur was not too
blinded by the flying fists which
were constantly waving before
hS face, he should come out of
the ordeal a very much wiser boy.
A Good Lesson
1.-THE things to do and the things
not to do in a ring were pretty
thoroughly demonstrated by Mas.
Ter Rosofsky.
saThoSe of us some feet away from
the ring can look back on the
fight as a splendid clinic in the
manly art of self-defense.
The question is whether Fur
vas too busy keeping out of the
way of sudden oblivion to have re-
membered much about what Ross
Was doing and just how he went
about doing it.
Not being in nearly such close
proximity to Ross as was FUR, and
IDt being anything like so imme-
diRtely concerned, as was Fur, it
seems to me I can remember lot

10 Rare Coordination
In the first place, Ross displayed
remarkable coordination in mind
and muscles.
He never took his eye off Furr's
countenance, where he read Phils

apalyzed his impending gestures.
~SRoss never left himself in
position to be reached by Phil's

Fur was not set to put all Of his

them like gentle taps.
