the firSt man ever to regain the heavy
weight title. He knocked the young
Negro out in the twelfth round of
their first meeting, and he means to
do it again before an expected throng
of $4,000, and 100000 house"
Schmeling's Support Strong.
Again the weight of expert opinion
is against the 32-year-old German,
but only in a slight degree by COM
parison with the 1896 fight, when Max
was almost alone in predicting his
victory. This time a comprehensive
poll of experts reveals that about 40
per cent of them like his chances.
Schmeling is making the five-hour
trip from Speculator by automobile
and train, arriving here at 10 tonight.
Louis, unless he changes his plans,
will not motor in from Pompton Lakes
until he goes to the commission Office
for the official weigh-in at noon to-
morrow He has done no active train
ing since his final sparring session last
Sunday.
For once. there are no reports that
either fighter has injured hand IN
training. or is in any way off his
feed. DR.. William Walker of the
Boxing Commission has pronounced
the pair in perfect condition and he
doubtless will renew his pledge at
tomorrow's ceremonies.
The gamblers still are Offering at
tractive odds. That is, they will lay
SO against your S. If you fancy
Schmeling. If, however, you like
Louis, then it becomes necessary to
post $40 to win by a knockout. as q
surprising number Of experts believe
Joe will do.
The latest ex-champion to toss in
his nickel's worth is old Jack johnson.
He is approximately the same color
as Louis, but he thinks Joe still has
lot to learn and that Schmeling will
repeat. Jack Dempsey by this time
has picked each man a half-dozen
times. Of11cially, he likes Schmeling;
privately, he thinks Louis will win by
knockout.
Where the several hundred fight
writer's gather in red-carpeted guess
ing room provided for them by Pro-
moter Mike Jacobs, the talk RACES
about the type of fight Louis will make
and whether he has forgotten that
terrific betting Schmeling gave him
before.
$1,o00,000 Gate Unlikely.
The more ardent Louis boosters
see the Tan Terror wading in and
smashing Schmeling to the floor in
two or three rounds. The Schmeling
supporters doubt that Joe has for
gotten those 1896 wallops and expectto
see a wary, gun-shy Louis in the ring
tomorrow night.
The town is filling up fast with
ticketholders and the advance sale
continues to be brisk. It Is evident
though, that the weather must remain
elegant today and tomorrow and there
be hefty sale at the stadium II
Jacobs is to realize his dream Of a

rights may boost the gross over the
charmed figure.
Max's latest observations reveal that
he is as cocksure as ever, and even a
little spiteful in his evaluation Of
