Sellmer, in a statement to the
Lithuanian Bureau of Public Activi-

and he was taken to the police sta
ton where one policeman held his
arms while another beat him in the
face with his fists.
Sellmer, unable to speak German,
was released with his face badly
bruised. He said the only English
he understood the police to use as
he was struck were a few epithets,

Sellmer's account was corroborated
by Kaunas journalist. Sellmer
apparently was the only casualty

Louis Tears Into Lot of Tough Sparn,ates
While Schmeling Spares Milder Opposition
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, June 10.-The unsung
heroes of the two camps where Max
Schmeling and Joe Louis are train
ing for their bout of fstcuffs here on
June % are those curious human
guinea pigs known as sparring part
ners.
They have in the past few weeks
absorbed more collective punishment
than either of the principals will feel
on the big night, and all for $25 day
and three square meals.
There have been some deserters from
both sockirg salons. One decided
that single day in the Louis menage
had been too many. But most of
them stick 1t out, more as a matter
of pride than anything else
They take bad licings almost daily
coming out of the ring dazed and bat
tered. One of Schmeling's victims, Joe
Mack, had his nose shattered by a
right, but he was back in there two
days later. his features protected by a
sort of Iron mask" that Max loves to
slug.
Rights Infuriate Louis.
Louis Is using much the tougher
partners and is taking more hard
wallops than Schmeling. He employs
big, hard-hitting Negroes, who have
instructions to swing their rights at
every opportunity. Two Of them,
George Nicholson and Basher Dean,
are real good heavyweights.
Dean smashed Louis on the jaw
with q series of rights the other day
that made the champ furious. He
jerked of his headgear and tore into
Dean with both fists, almost dismem-
bering the Basher.
Schmeling's camp was delighted to
hear about this incident. They took
it as proof positive that Louis still
loses his head when he gets nailed.
The Schmeling sparmates are lighter
and less experienced white boys, and
there may be some significance te
this. The German possibly feels that
he knows all that he ever will know
about fighting, and desires to have
only moving target on which to keep
his eyes sharpened.
Joe Apes Armstrong; Style.
Louis goes at 1t much harder than
Max. Trainer Jack Blackburn has him
wading in and trying to throw punches
like Henry Armstrong does. He and
the big boys who oppose him have
some hard mix-ups, and sometimes Joe
gets as good as he sends.
BY way of amusement in the evening
sparring partners play pool. give each
other the hot-foot and eat triple por-
tions Of everything.

Pennant Chances May Rest

Poppy Catcher.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June l0.-On the broad
and sometimes weary shoulders Of
Charles Leo (Gabby) Hartnett may
rest the pennant chances Of the
Chicago Cubs.
The jovial, 220-pound Irishman, for
years the Cub sparkplug, has been on
the sidelines since last Saturday with
bruised left wrist.
Gabby is determined to catch at
least 100 games this season. If he can
do 1t, the Cub chances to win the
flag will be bright. He's a great
fighter. There's no question of who
is the Cub leader on the field when
he's behind the plate He has fire
and color that not only lends itself
to teammates, but reaches right up
into the stands.
Has No Capable Sub.
But he's 81 years old and that
wrist bruise shows what might happen
any time to the Cubs and has hap
pened to many championship ball
club-injury to key veteran which
blasts title hopes.
For one thing, the Cubs haven't q
capable replacement for the veteran
who is in his 18th major league sea-
son. Ken O'Dea, the No. receiver,
is handy with bat on occasion, but
can't handle pitchers and throw with
Gabby. Bob Garbark looked good in
the first game of the Cubs Giants
series, but he needs experience.
Where Gabby's absence hurts most,
however, is in the Cub attack. The
Chicagoans have been weak with the
stick, staying at the top or close to ID
largely through brilliant pitching and
steady defensive work. Gabby, q great
clutch" hitter, gets hits when men
are on base and when they count the
