highlights of the party came with the showing of the pictures of MaX'S knockout victory over Steve Dudas.
 I have no doubt but what Max Schmeling knows how completely his standing in Germany will be changed by a defeat at Joe Louis hands. In the first place, the en- tire German nation expects him to win, no matter who his opponent might be, because he is a German. A defeat by anyone would heap ignominy on his head. And sceond- ly, defeat by Joe Louis would not only heap ignominy, but side or der of French fried disgrace and compete of shame on his head.
 If you are looking for reason to pick Schmeling to win, don't overlook the fires of Nationalism that will be burning in his breast on that warm night in June. He'll be shooting the works, not only for his country but for himself. He knows what is at stake, and if I know Max as we'll as I think I do, he'll be desperately hard man to keep on that floor.
 At least, that's the way size it up. But, of course, I am just lately returning from sizing up Bull Lea as the Derby winner. So I can be wrong.

BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent)

New York, May 1l.-(UP)-Max Schmeling, whom the boys insist on calling the Black Uhlan of the Rhine" despite the fact that he is not black, is not Uhlan, and lives miles from the Rhine river, seems to be spending most of his time these days telling everybody what he is going to do after he licks Joe Louis.
 Very interesting. But not half so interesting as if he'd explain what he is going to do if he doesn't lick Joe Louis. And it is entirely possi- ble that he won't because even with my poor memory I can recall a score oe fighters who went in the ring confident of beating Louis and who came out feet first.
 A victorious Schmeling-A cham pion of the world Schmeling-would go back to Berlin to rival Horst Vessel as a Nazi hero. Der Fuehrer Adolf Hitler might be at Kaiserhof station to welcome him. Unter Den Linden would look like Broadway the day Lindbergh came home. All the Nazis would "Seig He'll" "Seig Heil!" "Seig Heil" until their threats were sore.
 Nordic supremacy would have been upheld by German warrior.
 But what is worrying me (and I speak as a friend and admirer of Schmeling) is how DER fuehrer is going to react if DER right hand of DER Black Bomber hits DER Schmeling on DER jaw and knocks him out for DER evening.
 Right now Schmeling and Hitler are like this, and I am busy putting my two fingers together to Illustrate to you '7hat chums they are. Not long before Max left on his trip Hitler celebrated his 18th birthday and Max was at the party, blowing out candles, eating cake and having lots of good, clean fun. One of the
