Makes Financial
Worries Increase
Former Manager of Baer
Wins Court Ruling.
By United Press

By United Press
SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 23.-
Former Heavyweight Champion Max
Baers scrambled financial affairs
became even more confused today
by virtue of Superior Court de-
cision holding that Baer had no
right to terminate a contract with
j. Hamilton Lorin1er, Oakland pro-
moter and the fighters former man
ager.
Followers of the extended litiga-
ton interpreted the decision to
mean that Baer and Ancil Hoffman,
the Livermore fighters present man
ager, must give Lorimer IS per cent
of Baer's earnings since the Baer-
Lorimer split in 1881.
The lawsuit, which has dragged
for months through California
courts, was estimated to involve ap-
proximately 100000.
Although the decision indicated
Lorimer must be given his share
of receipts from Baer's fights,
Judge Malcolm Glenn pointed out
that Baer is entitled to two thirds
of the sum Hoffman paid to Lorimer
for a share in Baer's contract.
