NEW YORK, June 5.-For more

the consistent little money winner
from Chicago. Picard and Guldahl,

TO BATTLE IN FALL
Bout With Braddock-L Louis
Winner All but Made,
Mike Jacobs Feels.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, June 5.-Unsuc-
N cessful in his effort to fight
" Jimmy Braddock for the
4 heavyweight championship
two days ago, Max Schmeling probably
will meet the winner of the Breddock-
Joe Louis bout some time in Septem-
Der.
Promoter Mike Jacobs figures the
bout is all but made and Max, while
he says he hasn't agreed yet, appears
likely to accept on the theory that it S
the only way he can get a shot at the
title.
Max announced late yesterday he
would sail for Germany aboard the
Hamburg at midnight tonight just
about the same time that Jacobs ad-
mltted he was planning a Schmeling
title bout, probably in September in a
New York ball park. Trainer Max
Machon said The bout is agreeable to
us If Mike can swing it
Schmeling UNIFORMED.
\CHMELING himself hadn't heard
of it, however, but there was a
possibility he would have something
to say before leaving tonight. While
the German boxer was busy with his
attorneys, Machon, a close personal
friend, did most of the talking.
He wants the title back" he said
and that looks to be the only way
we can get it."
Since Jacobs already controls Louis
all he apparently needs to do is ar.
range things with Braddock to make
the affair certain.

Aside from the few places already
mentioned the angling picture is bit
on the dull side. In the upper sections
of the bay nothing is stirring in any
numbers. Down off Tall Timbers,

reached the quantity stage as yet, &C
cording to Capt. Walter Cheseldine of
River Springs. Still fishing is produc-
ing rather meager results, while trollers
are getting nothing but the practice.
THE condition of practically every
place from Point Lookout on up
is the same as Solomons Island, where
Capt Eddie Bowen sends most dis
couraging news for angling today and
for the next few days. Hardhead are
on a non-strike strike, the declares.
It is not an unusual condition though,
he adds. Every year as the fish move
from shallow to deep water they stop
biting for about two weeks, but when
they do start they go at 1t with ven-
gence.
Eddie expects them to start
their deep-water biting almost
any day now, and It will be re-
ported in this column when 1t
happens.
