 New York, Dec. 2o.-(UP) )--Man- hattat, which seems year after year to become more and more c winter suburb of Miami, Fla, Is wondering right now what big prize fight will spice Miamis current Don't 90 to Europe" season
 In this period of the floating mines along the European fringe, Uncle Mike" Jacobs of New York's goth Century club is safely Cabana- cd on the Roney Plazas silvering sands ct Miami Beach. But you may be sure that Uncle Michael is more concerned with counting noses than with the numerical correct- ness of his hoof beats in the crawl stroke.
 Jacobs of Jacobs Beach. N. Y. may require another week or 10 days to come to c conclusion as to whether he should toss the great Tony dallento and Madcap Maxie Baer Into Miami ring for the most abandoned Pier c brawl of the cen- tury.
 0alento, the barrel-bodied bnr- keeper of Orange, N. J.. and his Stogie smoking pilot, Joe (Yussel- the.Muscle) Jacobs, are telephon- ing Uncle Mike daily and implor- ing c Miami tilt with Baer. Yus- Sel Jacobs who managed schmel- Ing and who Is no relative of Pro. nnoter Mike, emphasizes that the great 0alerte never will fight Daer in New York State--ilor any other opponent for that inatter--becauSe they don't harness with the New York commission.
 0alento, who staged one of the most magnificent come.backS in pugilistic history by stopping Young Lou Nova at Philadelphia In Sep- tember--after almost knocking out Heavyweight Champion Joe LouiS-- craves to sharpen his claws on the handsome countenance of Baer be- fore taking another title shot at Louis in June.
 Fat Tony and broad -shouidored Maxie were originally slated to tan. gle at Chicago in February, but the alleged confessions of ono Harry Thomas In that city ruled out such c Chicago combat, and since Tony and YuSSel shun New York'S com- i mission. q Madison Square Garden melee also is out of the question.

 Hence Miami seems the neutral and logical spot. But while Promo ter Mike iS counting noses on the cora strands, Maxie Waxinan Of New York. who is Jack Dempeeys right hand man as well as manager of the Baltimore heavyweight, Red Burman, has announced his iflten- ton of scornlng Mike Jacobs and staging q Miami battle between Red Burmaf and Bob Pastor of New York who already has gone 20 ro,inde with Louis. WaXman declares that Dempsey will go in with him oil the Miami promotion,
 Waxman b very bitter toward Mike Jacobs, Joe Jacobs, Tony 0alento, etc. He says "DempseS has c very fine hotel at Miam Beach. He thinks Miami is thC worlds greatest vacation spot. Ift will help in every way to stage ( Burman-PaStor bout--a fight thai will not Dc investigated by the Flor. ida commission, or any other com. mission. Forget about dalento ane washed up Baor. When Dempsey gets back from Manila next week we'll go to work. We plan to give Maimi c good supporting card too headed by ounnar Barlund Of Pin. land fighting Johnny Paychek ol Des Moines."
 Those arc brave words from Mir Waxinan. Promoter Jacobs shoule take heed Meanwhile. Manhattan that northern suburb Of Miami. f. wondering what brand of fisticuffi the Florida Beason will bring,
