GERMANY-ITALY LINE UP

BERLIN, Sept. g. = Germany has lined up with Italy to reject the Anglo-French invitation to tomor- rows Mediterranean Anti-Piracy conference in Switzerland. Germany refuses to sit at the same table with Soviet Russia, accuser of the Ital- ians.
 Germany proposes that the ques- ton of attacks on neutral shipping in the Mediterranean be referred to the European Non-Intervention Committee and expressed polite willingness to continue collabora- ton with other powers.
 Germany said that the provoca- tive action of the Soviet Union in declaring Italy must pay for the Italian submarine attacks" on Russian freighters dampened any hope that Fridays conference could succeed.

Weight Loss Endangers Jeffra.

THERE was one thing, however,
which created much comment
and that was the build of the fidgety
Baltimore Italian. At 1902 pounds
he appeared fit. but it seemed if he
tried to take off the 3l2 pounds mar
gin over the bantamweight limit it
would impair his strength and punch
ing power.
Ten months have now passed since
Jeffra won from Escobar. The South
ern boy has not had to make weight
for his bouts and weighs only slightly
less than 122 pounds How, then, will
he shape up here September %, when
he must take off pounds and travel
is rounds-the first, by the way, he
has been called upon to negotiate
against a natural bantamweight, who,
pound for pound, has proved to be the
best puncher of all divisions?
Tackling boy who defeated him in
an r-the-weight match will be
nothing new for Escobar Indian Quin-

F0RESCOBAR BOUT
Harry, at Best Around 12O.
Can Ill Afford to Shed
Even Few Ounces.
BY SPARROW McGANN.
EW YORK, September

n YEW YORK, September 13.-
nj Harry Jeffra is product of a
city which produced one of the
a greatest champions ever to
grace the bantamweight throne. Kid
Williams and Baltimore. Md, we're
synonymous with spirited battles when
the class boasted such high-class
fighters as Johnny Coulon, Pete Her.
man, Frankie Burns, Eddie Campi, etc.
Williams reigned supreme until one
OF his right hooks landed below fair
territory in fight with Johnny Ertle,
and. from that day on, his sun seemed
to set until Pete Herman wrested the
title from him in 20-round tussle.
The Dundee brothers, Vince and Joe,
shared the Baltimore spotlight in
heavier divisions, and the passing of
the Scotch-named Italians cast a
gloom over Baltimore's lesser fistic
lights until Harry Jeffra sprang into
prominence with knockdown and a
decision over Champion Sixto Escobar.
Fight fans, however, generally ac-
cepted the victory as "home town
decision" and it was not until Mike
Jacobs pitted the pair in a return
match at the New York Hippodrome
last Fall that Jeffra opened the eyes
of the skeptics by outfighting apd out
punching Escobar in 10-round battle.

Escobar Has Real Punch,

A SHARP exchange of blows, fol-
lowed by an accurate right, and
Quintana was dead to the world It
was the quickest knockout by BAN
tamweight champion on record. Will
Harry Jeffra go the same way?
ounces mean much to the little
fellows; and pounds may spell the
doom Of Jeffra. Little fellows as
q rule apply themselves to training
more assiduously than those of heavier
classes. For this reason they are
nearly always in perfect shape when
they enter the ring.
One often learns of lightweight or
welterweight shedding or 10 pounds
without it showing any i'll effect on
his work. A good case in point is
Frankie Klick, the former junior light
weight champion, who could mix with
featherweights or lightweights and
make weight without impairing his
strength.
Boxers Of the Klick type depend on
cleverness, whereas Jeffra is but an
ordinary boxer and depends mostly
on sustained attack and powerful
blows for victory. He figures to come
q cropper against Escobar if only for
the reason that the Puerto Rican can
step around fast and at equal weights
is the sharper and harder hitter of
the two.
