- weight championships feat
never attained since Ruby Bob" Fitz-
simmons ruled the roost way back in
1897-1899-brightened sharply here
with the coming Of new British En-
pire champion.
Wild-swinging young Ben Foord of
South Africa, stirred rosy visions of a
new and formidable British challenger
when he knocked out Jack Petersen,
the English and Empire titleholder, in
three slashing rounds recently.
Now he wants a crack at Joe Louis.
Foord hammered Petersen to the
canvas with two-flsted attack that
rivalled in fury the Brown Bomber's"
own kayo conquest of Jack Sharkey.
His hackers Immediately wired Mike
Jacobs, asking terms for Louis to fight
Foord at the Wembley Stadium, in
London.
Jacobs Demand Awes En-.
JACOBS reply tossed wet blanket
on any such contest, however-at
least until next year.
Jacobs demanded 100000 cash
guarantee, which belongs in the realm
of fantasy as viewed by British pro-
moters
As the defending champion, Peter
sen himself received only $500 for
his share from a record gate. Foord
got $4,000. The idea of paying $780,
900 fiat to single contestant leaves
English promoters family groggy, even
though Joe Louis undoubtedly would
pull the biggest gate in British boxing
history.
At any rate, Foord cracked his fist
in knocking out Petersen, putting him
on the shelf for at least 10 weeks
and by mid-November the vicissitudes
Of English weather would prevent
staging an outdoor bout such as would
be necessary to attract the huge sum
demanded by Jacobs.

Duke and Bride Pack EN- In.
ONE of the nineties' great events
in Smiths memory was the visit
to the show in 1895 by the Duke of
Marlboro and his bride of day,
Consuelo Vanderbilt Word got around
that the newlyweds were coming.
The house was jammed while great
crowd thronged around the box
which they were expected to occupy.
Ladies costumes were torn, feet were
trod upon, all to catch glimpse of
the visitors. None noticed quietly
dressed young couple sitting in two
ordinary seats behind the box. They
were the duke and his bride.

WINTER INTEREST
IN RING LESSENED
Failure to Hold Title Bout
Puts Garden Promoter
in Back Seat.
BY SPARROW McGANN.

n yEW YORK, September s.
Jimmy Braddock's little finger
VI cost Promoters Jimmy Johns
4 y ton and Mike Jacobs more
money than if they had been sued for
the loss of one of his hands. Plans
were we'll under way to sell the Brad
dock -Schmeling fight to the tune of
a million dollars. The profit on the
fight would not have been as much
as the prestige attached to finishing
UP successful outdoor season with a
world heavyweight championship af-
fair. The added interest in the fight
game would have paid big dividends
during the Winter season.
Mike Jacobs has renovated the Hip
podrome Theater. The gross capacity
would not have exceeded 5000 spec
tators. This meant Jacobs would have
had to charge real top prices in order
to make it worth while to bring in
top-notchers. Jacobs has no time to
bother with secondary presentations.
Mike Is No Piker.
NOTHING but the best could make
him indulge in the worry and
bother that goes with staging prize
fight. Mike thinks back to the night
he put on the Barney Ross-Billy
Petrolle fight at the Coliseum and
saw more customers trying to break
into the place than it could seat. That
taught him a lesson. With a small
club featuring big events, he would
have to pattern his list on the style
of the National Sporting Club of Lon
don, where only those who can pay
the freight are permitted to enter the
sacrosanct premises.
Jimmy Johnston started off with
double championship wind-up for the
indoor season at Madison Square Gar
den. The Canzoneri-Ambers and Bel
loise-Crowley affairs mean Dapper
Jim will attempt some such double
wind-ups throughout the rest of the
season. He will have to do this in
order to avoid some Of the vast array
Of empty seats that some of his
presentations witnessed last year.
Johnston in Back Seat.
JOHNSTON practically was crowded
out of the picture during the out
door season. The Madison Square
bowl was fixed over into a midget
auto racing track. The ball parks
were controlled by Jacobs. This left
no place fer Johnston, and when
Braddock's finger became too touchy
with arthritis to permit his going
through with the Schmeling fight, it
blanked Johnston out entirely for the
first time since he took over the
direction of boxing for the Garden
interests. The Braddock-Schmelin
fight would not have shown the profit
other affairs of this sort did in the
past, but it would have tickled the
palate and restored some Of the pres
tige the Garden directorate had once
known. But that tantalizing quirk in
Jim's little finger spoiled the pie. as
though whole hand had been thrust
into It,
Jacobs and Johnston are keeping
their plans secret. They have several
big matches in process of COM
pletion. 1t is no secret that Joe Louis
will appear twice for Jacobs and. if
things work out well for the Negro,
he will show at least once in the
Garden.

L horses and select tnterna-
tional military jumpers parade in

old Charlie Smith will be acting in
an official capacity for his fiftieth
year.
"a lot of horses have galloped in
and out of the ring in so years, {"
said Smith today, "but I never was
one to sigh for the good old days.
The show was a grand spectacle back
in the beginning, but think today
it is even a more thrilling affair with
international military jumping con-
tests and women riders competing
over the Jumps against professionals
and top-hight men amateurs"
Society Got Big Play.
GMITH, who started as entry clerk
in 1886, three years after the
first show, recalls that the inaugural
show was held in a structure known
as Gilmore's Garden. Owned by
William K. Vanderbilt, it had served
formerly as terminal for the New
York & Harlem Railroad and housed
all the big attractions now held In
the Garden.
The 1888 show attracted 165 ex-
hibitors and by the time it moved,
four years later, to the old Madison
Square Garden, built on the site of
Gilmore's, society had taken the
show unto its own. The papers de-
voted as much or more to society at
the show as they did to the horses.
The show marked not only the open

over the tax list of the Island of St.

considered proper valuation of the

but nevertheless we are doing it to the
best of our ability and when that is done
we will be 10 position 10 recommend to
