Three Pennsylvania
Democrats Lose
Road Case Appeals
Conviction Of Kirk,
Skok and BrownmiIier
Upheld by Court
BY the Associated Press,

oy TIC ASbOCldCcu EIe06.
PHILADELPHIA, July l9-Ap-
peals of three Pennsylvania Demo-
Gratis convicted on charges growing
out of party split during the 1898
Pennsylvania primary were denied
today by the State Superior Court.
The high court upheld the Dau-
phin County (Harrisburg) convic-
ton Of Roy E. Brownmiller, former
State highway secretary; James p.
Kirk, former Allegheny County
pittsburgh Democratic chairman,
and Victor Skok, an associate OF
Kirk in the bonding business.
Brownmiller, convicted in the
lower court of malfeasance and mis-
feasance in connection with an as
serted padded highway pay roll, was
sentenced to year in Jail and total
fines of $1,000.
Kirk and Skok were convicted OF
conspiracy to direct State highway
bonding business to their own firm
At the same trial, H. H. Temple, for
mer Highway Department chief en-
glneer, was acquitted on the same
charges.
The two Western Pennsylvania
men were sentenced prior to their
appeal, Kirk to pay $2,500 fine
and Skok, $500.
Brownmiller served as highway
secretary during the last year of the
administration of former Gov.
George H. Earle, now Minister to
Bulgaria.
In the campaign cases, broad
charges of corruption were aimed
at Democrats who controlled the
Pennsylvania government from 1885
to 1899, then lost it on Republican
upsurge.
Mr.. Earle and his cabinet were
exonerated by a special legislative
investigating committee.

Choice 10 Win
By Knockout
Max, Oddly Silent,
Has Physical Edge
Except in Weight
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

JERSEY CITY, N. j.. July a.
Those two outstanding heavyweights,
Tony Galento and Max Baer. meet
in 15-round fight at the local ball
park tonight providing. of course,
that Tony doesn't get crowned by
a relative before he can climb into
the ring.
Around 10000 fans are expected to
watch the two veterans fight it out
about o'clock E. S. t. for the
right to meet Champion Joe Louis
in a September bout. At least,
Galento is assured another shot at
the champion if he wins tonight.
Baer might possibly line himself up
for return with Louis, somewhere,
but he would have to whip the socks
of Galento to make Promoter Mike
Jacobs and the customers forget his
last outing with the big Negro. ~
Galento Still Favored.
Nothing has happened to change
the widespread opinion that Galento
will win, probably by a knockout.
Tony couldn't possibly get himself
into poorer physical condition at the
last minute than the experts have
thought him to be for week or TIVE,
and the cut he received on his chin
from flying beer glass night before
last didn't mar his sterling fighting
qualities. =.
In all the excitement attending
Tony's bout with the beer glass.
practically nothing has been heard
Of Baer for a couple of days. This
is a new experience for the ex-
champion. There was time when
Max grabbed off the pre-fght head
lines, himself. with his dizzy esca-
pades, but he got himself badly
over-matched this time.
So quiet has Max been. indeed,
that he has some observers believ-
ing he finally has become serious
about this boxing business. Sev-
eral well-known judges of fighters
have said the last few GAYS that,
so help them, they think Baer
had worked himself into a state
OF mind where he will 60 in there
and slug it out with Tony tonight
until something comes loose.
Max has been a little grimmer
than ever before, and his state
ments have been less extravagant.
Those close to him say he hon
estly has been burned about some
of Galento's remarks and is sore
at the bartender. If that is true,
then this might be quite a fight. :
Only Weight Edge to Tony.
Baer always has had the physical
equipment. Against THly he will
have every advantage except in
weight. He has the height the
reach and probably the harder
punch. At least, his right once
was regarded as the most deadly
in the business, though it appeared
to have lost some of its potency
in Makes last fight with Lou
Nova.
On Galento's side is an abun-
dance of raw courage, an ability to
absorb punishment and a pom
derous left hook that sat Joe Louis
on his trunks. Also Tony will be
fighting on his home grounds, and
some fighters who have met him
on this side of the river claim
this is important. Baer says he
doesn't care much which set Of
rules they fight under-the Galento
or the Queensberry.
