abandon my journey toward the
west and return home. 1t was not
nostalgia for New York's invigorat-
ing winter atmosphere of SCOT and
automobile exhaust fumes, but a
little item I read in the Star Times
of this city. 1t read:
New York-Max Schmeling to-
day accepted terms for December
fight in Chicago, and will sail for
the United States within a week
to start conditioning"
How familiar were those words
"Schmeling will sail within week -
For ever since I can remember
Schmeling has been sailing for the
United States. He crosses the ocean
from Bremerhaven to New York
as casually as you and l move from
the living room to the kitchen.
And have always met him. And
as read of his latest plans felt
as if | must go back to New York
and greet him again.
In way my life can be traced
by the arrivals of Max Schmeling.
I remember his first arrival, years
ago. I had just had my curls cut
off, and wore my best mildly blouse
and rompers down to the pier.
Then he came again, and this
time 1 had advanced from rompers
to blue serge knickers. and those
stockings that never
would stay up, even with the fullest
cooperation from a thousand-but-
toned undergarment that the
French call drawers s-body or
panty waist.
Something's next trip to this
country found me at the dock wear
ing my first pair of long trousers.
