SEES SHEAVF FIGHT
GATE OF MILLION
Louis -SchmeIing Dated for
Yankee Stadium June 22
Despite Rival Bids.
BY the Associated Press.

BY tfe Associated Press.
NEW YORK. April 27.-Mike Jacobs
and New York looked forward today
to the busiest and biggest summer
fight season Of many years, topped
by the return match between Joe Louis
and Max Schmeling at Yankee Sta
dium on the night Of June 22.
Jacobs set the site for the bout
yesterday after considering offers from
Chicago, Detroit and Philadelphia.
The summer program also will include
the doings Of Henry Armstrong, Bar
ney Ross and Lou Anders in their
three e-cornered dispute over the vel
terweight and lightweight titles.
Uncle Mike has fond hopes Of a
crowd Of 10000 and a net gate of
81 100000 or more for the second
bout Between the Negro heavyweight
champion and the German who punc-
tured the Louis bubble in the same
ring June 10, 1896.
Seats From $3.50 to $50.
Seats will range in price from So. so
for unreserved bleacher seats to $50
for ringside chairs. Mike expects to
pick up an additional 100000 from
radio and picture rights to swell his
net gate Of a million or more.
The first Louis-Schmeling meeting,
held the year before Louis knocked
out Jim Braddock for the title, drew
10000 customers and $452, $50 in net
gate receipts.
Fear Of an anti-Nazi boycott and
the attractive offers Of the three other
cities were discarded when Jacobs
chose New York. Obligations to met
ropolitan fans, the ball park owners
and the New York State Athletic
Commission outweighed the induce
ments Of other cities, Jacobs said.
The fighters will start training early
next month. Louis will do prelim-
mary work at Lafayetteville, N. Y,
before pitching his permanent camp
at Pompton Lakes, N. J. Schmeling
Is expected to arrive from Germany
May 9 and train at Spectator, N. Y.

At Long Last.

Since the day in 1927 at Buenos
Aires, when Alexander Alekhin wrested
the world chess crown from the re-
doubtable Jose Capablanca, in one
Of the most gruelling and least satisfy
ing major conflicts in the annals of
chess there has been q persistent de-
mand that the two should meet again.
But the years have trundled their
way and Alekhin has crossed lances
with many international masters, ever
turning cold shoulder to the Cuban
marvel, who had scorned his advances
as challenger prior to 1927
But at long last the two will battle.
The contract has been signed. The
championship fray will be held in
Buenos Aires and Montevideo in the
summer Of 1899
According to the match terms, the
same as those in 1927. the champion
retains the title If each player scores
S decisive victories.
As a preface to his match with
Alekhin, Capablanca has arranged to
meet DR.. Max Euwe, ex-world cham
pion, in Holland come Christmas.
Thus chessdom will have the privilege
of seeing what the Cuban idol can do
to both Euwe and Alekhin-and it Is
to be remembered that Capablanca is
the elder Of the three.

Summer Shower 7 Scores Victory
 Over Ball Game

All on account of a. little summer shower that just happened to drop around at o'clock last evening, the scheduled ball tilt between the Elks and Douglas hines, which was booked for the Douglas diamond was put oyer until another day
 The shower lasted not much more than a half hour, but was at its peak, with no bright skies show ing, at the deadline, half an hour before game time. The Elks players were in Juneau, in uniform, and the Douglas players were waiting in Douglas, also in suit, when the word came that the game was off
 A short time later, skies were clear again and conditions right fit for a good ball game, but the ball players had gone home Three post poned games now remain on the leagues playoff list for the second half.
 Because of the undecided outlook of the weather, no game has been billed for tonight, but tomorrow weather permitting, one of the back contests will be played, with a scheduled tilt Friday.
