An Ideal Expedition.


RETWEEN them, Herr schmeling
and Mr.. Yussel the Muscle
Jacobs constitute the ideal Nazi re-
search expedition. Herr Schmeling
Is high in the Nazi books, a pal Of the
Fuehrer's and prospect for high
ONCE in the German youth movement.
Mr.. Jacobs is, III many respects, NsA
public enemy No. /. Ever since he
saluted Herr Hitler with an outsize
cigar, the Nazi press has been clamor-
ing for the repeal. annullment and ex-
communication of Mr.. Jacobs.
Being q broad, impartial kind of
thinker. Mr.. Jacobs ignores the Nazi
attitude toward himself. Or, at least,
he tolerates 1t. He does not seem to
think that the German newspapers
mean all those harsh things they say
about him. Boys will be boys, ac-
cording to Joe. and Nazis will be
Naxis.
As long as he retains a finan-
cial interest in . Nazi athlete,
Mr.. Jacobs is ready to forgive
and forget.
1t will be a pretty thing to see the
Muscle and his client weaving around
the country with their fingers on the
public pulse, drawing inferences and
piling up data in the interest Of hui
manity, as we'll as personal profit.
They are both expert interence-draw-
ers, and do not figure to miss q trick.
Mr.. Jacobs friends are urging MIN
not to confine his research work to
the field of Nah sentiment. They
feel that while he Is out there re-
searching he might as well investigate
prohibition, child labor, the Town
send plan, commercialism In college
foot ball, and Dizzy Deans salary re-
quirements.
There d . great deal that the
public wants to know about,
and Mr.. Jacobs II the man TO
find out the answers, since he
expects to be probing anyway.
Mr.. Jacobs, in turn, has promised
to probe and probe deep.
The tour will begin in February,
when Herr Schmeling arrives here
from Germany. 1t will last about a
month, and then the Uhlan will settle
down to train In earnest for the con-
test he considers himself legally,
morally. and constitutionally en-
titled to, with Braddock. To be sure,
Mr.. Braddock says he will not show up
for that contest in the event Of a
boycott. and it Is possible that Herr
Schmeling will find himself all alone
In the ring with his co-investigator.
Mr.. Jacobs, and his trainer. Max
Machon.
But Herr schmeling doesn't think
50. Not if the Schmeling- Jacobs joint
investigation Of Nazi sentiment in
America turns out the way he expects
1t to.

to do was to give up and 60 home.
Some Of the players have told
me that there were days when
the only thought that kept them
going was that they owed 1t to
Hubbell. They couldn't throw
him down, no matter what hap
pened.
In 1887 the Giants must have more
than Hubben to pull them through.
They must have somebody to take
the place of Fitzsimmons, who finished
with all his heart-but with almost
nothing else. They must give aid to
Hal Schumacher, who faltered too
many times last year. And they must
have somebody to close up the ranks
while Terry is waiting for the Gablers
and the Castlemans and the Smiths
to achieve q real major league stride.
Always the Cardinals.
AS USUAL, the Cardinals rank as
= the foremost threat, because,
when these fellows aren't winning the
pennant themselves. they are the ones

nj widely Travelled Nazi, Herr Max
" Schmeling, is going to con-
a duct an experiment over here
next month, with the assistance Of
his valued and semi-trusted American
agent, Mr.. Yussel the Muscle Jacobs.
Herr schmeling Is q prizefighter by

have implications extending beyond
the fight game.
He Is going to try to find out what
America thinks OF Nazis. 1t is an
ambitious project. but not too ambi-
tious for Herr Schmeling and Mr..
Jacobs, who claim to have an ethical
and cultural interest in the question,
as well as important financial mo-
tives.

Herr Schmeling, "if this coun-
try Is ready to boycott . good

Braddock. If the citizens condescend
to smile upon Herr Schmeling and re-
frain from bombarding him with ruta-
bagas and other garden artillery, it
will be considered proof-by Mr..
Jacobs and his client, at least-that
America still is safe for NaM fighters,
democracy, and the three postage

As you know, Herr Schmeling's
scheduled battle with Braddock has
been threatened with a boycott by
Nazi non-sympathizers in this country.

colt, because some of the boy
cotters ascribe 1t to humani-

r T is interesting that Indian Broom,
Coast racing sensation of 1886, is
rated the future book favorite for
L the 100000 Santa Anita Handi-
cap at 10 to /.
Indian Broom went to the Kentucky
Derby last Spring with great repu-
tation. Earlier he had set a new world
mark for the mile and a furlong and
was regarded as a likely winner OF the
Blue Grass classic. The thoroughbred
had skyrocketed to prominence by his
sensational victory in the Marchbank
Handicap over Top Row and AZucar.
The Coast champion did not come
through in the Derby, finishing behind
Bold Venture and Brevity. However,
the colt did very well the rest Of the
season out West.
incidentally, Indian Broom made
that world mark under a stirring ride
by Jockey Basil James. the Sunnyside,
Wash, apprentice who stepped out
and won the 1886 riding honors. James
booted home in first place 243 Of the

refrained from trying to build up their

PHILADELPHIA TEA
SLIPPERS MISS HIM
But Tommy's World Journey
Won't Do Any Harm to =.
American Boxing.
BY. JOHN LARDNER.

n YEW YORK, January 21.-Tom-
N my Loughran. the Beau Sa-
breur of boxing. bowed out OF
4 his home town of Philadelphia
the other night with the announce
ment that he never would return
again-at least not professionally.
Thomas Is through with the American
fight business, except for maybe few
brief tilts on the coast. He is going
around the world.
Usually when people go around the
world, they do so to forget, or some
thing. Thomas Loughran has nothing
to forget. His past is all very nice and
neat and orderly, and above all it is
q very gentlemanly past.
Thomas slogan from boyhood up
has been Every inch the gentleman"
He never let any one forget it.
This trip around the world is more
of a farewell gesture than anything
else. In the last year or so Mr.. Lough-
ran became increasingly aware that
he had lost his place in American
boxing. He still could get work-all he
wanted-but fight interest was focused
on the Joe Louis pattern-Louis and
Schmeling and Braddock and the new
white hopes of the Gunnar Barlund
school-and Tommy knew he didn't
fit in there at all. He might have had
q fight with Louis himself if he'd
wished, but Mr.. Loughran never has
cared much for the role Of sacrif1cial
Coat He Is a prOlld Puy.
A Social Register Fighter.
GO NOW he is bowling out. and the
- shock to the DreXels and the Bid
dies will be terrific. Thomas always
was a social register fighter, the pride
Of the blue book the toast OF Tea
party row.
One load Of Tomasso and the tough
est dowager in the world would melt
into smiles of approval and crack to
the dowager on her right, Who said
that all boxers were bounders?
Sportin' gentlemen fought for the
privilege of going couple OF polite
rounds with Tommy. It was that nice
Mr.. Loughran here and that nice Mr..
Loughran there.
This may sound to you like pretty
horrible sort of life, but Tommy liked
1t. He was born with an appetite for
polite society. He liked to see people
going around doing all the things that
Emily Post wrote about. Most men,
bers of the fight racket feel that
they are bsing ribbed when somebody
tells them there are three different
kinds of forks, but Mr.. Loughran
knew those stories we're true, and he
knew where the triple-threat fork
wielders could be found
And If that's what Thomas liked,
who is going to cast the first crumpet?
One mans tea party is another mans
poison.
Mr.. Loughran was a real good
fighter in his time. I mean, he was
a very expert performer. He couldn't
punch for shucks, but he could give
away cards. spades and aces in the
matter of sheer boxing skill. 1t was
an artistic treat to watch Thomas
shift and sift and roll and slip with
q punch and make his legs do one
thing while his hands were doing an
other.

More Than HubbelI.

For most Of last season. the Giant
pitching staff consisted almost
solely Of Carl Hubbell. Indeed, I could
60 farther than that and say there
were times when it seemed the whole
ball club consisted almost solely OF
Hubbell. When they were winning
regularly, Hubbell was out in front.
When they stumbled and fell, Hubbell
picked them up. He started all their
important series and finished many
Of them. He pitched in turn and out
of turn, starting games of his own
and winding up some that other
pitchers started. The figures show
that he led the National League in the
matter of games won and lost and
in the even more revealing detail Of
earned runs allowed.
But the figures couldn't show what
a tremendous force he was in main

Giants did, overcoming all the
