Madison Square Garden Bowl last

Indefinitely. He also had been fined
$1,000 for not putting in an appear
ance at the New York Boxing Commls-
sion offices to weigh in for the bout.
Schmeling, Drowned and hard after
training at Spectator, N. Y, was
on hand, a somewhat pathetic figure
There was nothing pathetic about his
criticism of the commission, however.
Max is Critical.
MAX made it plain he thought the
commission should have vacated
the title and named him leading con-
tender with an elimination tourney to
decide his opponent in a title fight.
Schmeling and Manager Joe Jacobs
declined to say what their next move
would be until they had consulted
their attorneys.
John ]. Phelan, commission chair
man, after handing down the decision
which not only suspended and fined
Braddock, but did the same to his
manager, Joe Gould, took a crack at
the Chicago bout between Braddock
and Louis. Phelan said he was ad-
vlsing boxing commissions with which
New York is affiliated that any boxer
who meets Braddock before the champ
fights Schmeling will be suspended.
From Chicago came word the sus-
pension of Braddock would not be
recognized and that the commissions

1913 Pupils Take
Mantoux Test
Fourteen Percent of Those Tested
Showed Positive Reaction
Will BE X-Rayed

Fourteen per cent of the public
and parochial schools pupils tested
Monday in the Mantoux tuberculin
test showed a positive reaction &C
cording to readings made yesterday
by school nurse Miss Alma Rehm.
The actual number of pupils show
ing positive reaction was 40, the
report showed.
According to an announcement
from the health department a pos
tive reaction to the test does not
mean necessarily that the child has
or will have tuberculosis. But II
points out that someplace he has
had contact with someone who does
have the disease in an active form.
Positive reactions mean that those
pupils will be X-rayed to determine
further how far the disease has
gone.
Miss Rehm reported that in the
senior and junior high school of
the public school, and in the 7th
and 9Th grades of the parochial
school 1886 were tested Monday.
Yesterday 81 additional received
the test, making a total of 1893 test
ed pupils.
Using as a check the number of
students who were permitted with
parental sanction to take the last
Mantoux test, Miss Rehm observed
that the percentage was much high
er. Many more parents this time
permitted their children to be ex-
amined, she said.
