NEW YORK, Aug. 10. (UP)-
The New York Giants whitfield
down the distance to the National
league lead to two games yester-
day when they larruped the Bos-
ton Bees, 81, behind the seven
hit flinging of Carl Hubbell, who
scored his 18th victory of the
year.
1t was the fifth in row for the
Giants. Lou Fette was Knocked

Leiber singled, Leslie walked

In the only other National
league game, the faltering Chica-
90 Cubs dropped a TO decision
to the Pittsburgh Pirates, who
were forced to come from behind
twice. The Cubs got a pair OF
runs in the third inning, but the
Pirates pushed five across in the
fourth. Chicago got two more in

LLOYD Waner reached first on an

Paul Waner's single sent him to

Young singled scoring Paul with

Philadelphia at Brooklyn was

U. SFOR FIGHT
Says Louis Will Beat Farr;
Would Take on Former
in September
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Aug. 10. (UP)-
Max Schmeling, Germany's per-
siStent transatlantic cOmmuter
arrived yesterday on the Bremen
ITO fight Joe Louis for the world
heavyweight title"
The welcoming committee asked
Herr Make if he had forgotten
that Louis was defending his
championship against % m m
Farr of Wales at Yankee stadium
on August 26.
Schmeling, bronzed and conf
dent, said he remembered the
Louis-Farr brawl quite distinctly
In fact it was one of the minor
reasons for his trip. But he added
emphatically, Louis will beat
Farr. And am here TO fight Louis
in late September or early Octo-
ber--any place Mike Jacobs de-
cides to hold the bout"
Did Make figure he could beat
Champion Joe again if he could
cntice the Brown Bomber into the
ring? The dark-haired, beetle
browed Uhlan was positive he
could recapture the crown from
Louis. He had seen the Louis
Braddock movies in Switzerland.
And when he saw the Bomber in
action on the screen, he realized
that Louis had not improved any
as a fighter since that night IN
June, 1886, when Make knocked
Joe cold at Yankee stadium.
This is Schmeling's fifth trans
Atlantic crossing in his attempt to
recapturc the crown since his
knockout victory over the Bomb
er. He smiled wryly and said he
hoped this trip would be more
successful than the other four
when he had tried unsuccessfully
to inveigle James J. Braddock in
to the ring. Braddock was cham
piOn then.
