Something New for Thomas.

THOMAS hadn't been down before
in his four--year career, and
Schmeling's right surprised him con-
siderably. 1t being the first such ex-
perience, he didn't know enough to
take the count.
Schmeling was pretty well pleased.
He came out of his first tune-up I'M
marked and breathing easily. He
seems ageless. At 80 his legs and body
are as smooth and ripping and tidy
looking as ever. Undoubtedly he has a
great right that he never exhibited as
champion. He looks, in fact, the next
champion.

been the top dog on his pro club.
Then, drafted from Texas Christian

In circus-barker fashion the word

Slingin' Sammy Baugh, the peerless
passer, the heroic HEAVIER, the auto
matte aerialist. That's how big gates
are made.
There could have been dug the
foundation for fine, bitter feud here.

FINE RIGHT EARNS
VICTORY FOR MAX
German Fights Like Champ
but Louis, Unimpressed,
Says He'll Beat Him.
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer

n YEW YORK, Dec. 14.-Joe Louis,
IN the cocoa -colored champion,
is not man easily impressed.
a He sat dead-panned in Madi-
son Square Garden last night while
Max Schmeling knocked Harry
Thomas daffy as a dervish in eight
rounds, and all Joe had to say was:
If I can't whip that Schmeling the
next time don't ever want to see
another pair of boxing gloves"
Joe might have been whistling in
the dark. Schmeling, to the lay eye,
had looked truly great fighter as he
toyed with Thomas in the early rounds
and then methodically chopped him
to the canvas with lightning rights.
But Louis sounded exactly like he
meant it.
So did his dusky manager, old Jack
Blackburn: 'All hope is that nothin'
happens to that date we got with
Schmeling next June" he said happily
in the lobby.

Raugh Made Bears Pass.

EVEN with the score at 21-2l in the
- third period, it was evident that
Chicago figured to win the game The
Bears line was stronger, fresher and
heavier. Had they chosen to play
football by the book and continue to
send Nagurski and Manders at that
groggy Redskin line, they probably
would have won,
But psychological phenomena
seemed to strike the Bears. All after
noon they had gained with Nagurski
and Manders. and when a team gains

the ball most of the time That Wash
ington was able to tie, 21-21. was due
to the fact that Baugh was hitting
500 in the forward passing league.
The Bears, in the late going,
received bad quarterbacking.
Maybe panicky quarterbacking
Is the better way to say it.
Anyway, Baugh made the Bears try
his kind of game and the Chicagoans
were gullible in doing it. They did
not figure that Washington essen
TALLY was passing team and they
ground-gaining outfit. Even after
Justice had scored, to make it 1921,
the Bears stood a reasonable chance
to win. But they didn't know how.

happen to that date. Over 5000
customers jostled their way into the
Garden last night, ignoring the exhor-
tations of the anti-Nazi pickets who
paraded before the doors.
Most of them seemed to be there to
cheer Schmeling The ovation given
the former champion as he entered
the ring brought a broad smile to his
face that departed only fleetingly as
he worked on Thomas.
While beaten by much superior
fighter, Thomas was far from dis
graced. He hit the canvas for the
sixth time in the eighth round before
Referee Arthur Donovan escorted him,
rubber legged, to his corner. He
didn't know thing by that time,
but he still wanted to battle.
The long l8-month lay-of since he
stopped Louis summer before last ap-
peared not to have affected Schmel-
ing's timing or the lethal power of
his right once he got himself unlim-
bered. He let his wild-swinging oppo-
nent carry the fight to him and bided
his time. Thomas, in fact, connected
sufficiently to win three of the first
i've rounds.

IT WASN'T until the sixth that Max.

riedly. began cracking Harry on the
whiskers. He said afterWard that he
had found the Eagle Bend, Mimi,
product harder to tag with q right
than he did Louis. But once he got
the range it was all over.
Just before the seventh round ended
Thomas went down hard, the bell
changing almost as he landed. His
mouth had been bleeding since the
second round, when one of Max's lefts
had driven tooth almost through his
under lip. In the eighth Schmeling
really went to work, and Thomas was
bouncing up and down like a rubber
ball until Donovan made the German
desist.
There wasn't any doubt in Thomas
mind, once it cleared. that he had run
into stingaree. In his humble opin-
ion, he said, Schmeling will stop Louis
clock again the next time they meet,
and quicker than the other time.
