other side of his mouth and con-
tinued.
'Baer was scared to death and
was wide open all of the time, Le-
Whisky couldn't dodge a falling
church steeple and Uzcudun stuck
out his chin and asked for it."
why won't Schmeling and
Braddock ever tangle?"

AT this moment a group of fight
officials joined Jeffries and he
started off
Thanks I said.

piled.

The group approved a motion by
the chairman that the league

The city will move the lights,

turn the city will take 20 per cent
Of the gate for upkeep.
-Four teams will make up the

Schmeling or Braddock can beat
Louis any day in the week.
That is the opinion of James j.
Jeffries, former heavyweight cham
pion of the world. Louis, according
to the conqueror Of FitzSimmonS,
is only a second rate heavyweight
and will never beat any of the top
men.
Schmeling would beat Braddock
but the two will never meet and
Jack johnson was the greatest
heavyweight champion.
Jeffries was in BraWley Tuesday
night to referee the amateur fights
and the Bench Warmer was for
tunate enough to corner the former
titleholder Immediately before the
start of the bouts.
He was standing in the corner
Of the hotel putting on a huge ci-
gar when I spotted him.
Hello, JIM" He only nodded his
head and went on putting and
chewing his stogie.
Why do you think Braddock
will whip LOUISE"
Well" he mumbled, I'm the
first place Louis is a sucker for
right hand punch as Schmel-
ing demonstrated. Then he is
never on his toes He shuffles
flat footed across the ring and
a fast man will beat him to the
punch and move out of range
before the Negro can get under
way. Pastor proved this. And
Pastor wouldn't have lasted a
round against Dempsey or john
son."
Louis hits pretty hard, doesn't
hep" I queried.
He hits hard when he lands
squarely. But he could swing all
