In the 12th round of a feather- weight championship scrap with Fidel LaBarba, little California pulldog, Kid Chocolate looked to ve on the way down or out under a terrific body bat- tering. For a solid minute he took everything LaBarba shot at his mid- section, then to the astonishment of @ crowd of 15,000 yelling fans, put on a flashing comeback. Before the 12th round, the most, exciting and dramatic of the entire | fight, was concluded, Chocolate had completely turned the tables.

Chocolate fought one of the gamest and best fights he has shown in New York against an experienced, rugged little puncher, who kept up a steady drum fire to the kid's body, with an occasional left hook to the Cuban's jaw. There were no knockdowns but LaBarba twice went to the floor from the combined effects of losing his balance and taking glancing blows. Chocolate landed the harder blow: specalizing in a right upper-cut, but he also was much wilder.

So, at least, says the Teuton’s man- ager, Joe Jacoos, who outlined Schmeling’s plans upon his arrival Friday from Europe. ; Jacobs said he already had an agreement with Baer for a match against Schmeling in June, either in New York or Chicago, with Dempsey the probable promoter. Neither Jack Sharkey, who won the heavyweight title from Schmeling last ‘summer, nor Madison Square Gar- den figures in Jacobs’ plans at the moment. “After Schmeling knocks out Baer,” he said airily, “we'll fight Sharkey in September,” adding, however, that under no circumstances would the German box again for Madison Square Garden. Jacobs’ peeve against the Garden and Sharkey seems to be due to the| fact that they are willing to give Schmeling only 10 per cent of the re- ceipts along with a “shot” at the title. ;That was the percentage that Shar- key received when he won the crown from Schmeling. | North, South Teams | In Finale Contest Baltimore Stadium, Baltimore, Dec. 10.—()—The blue of the, north mingled with the gray of the south las the team of 22 picked football | stars from northern colleges met a similar eleven from Dixie Saturday j here in the border state of Maryland. ‘The two teams clashed in friendly | Tivalry unmindful of sectional .dis- agreement of other years.

Though admitting deals are in the making, few of the owners were will- ing to discuss them publicly.

Around this ques- tion had centered the biggest battle of the convention. ‘The American Association and the International League, both double A circuits, set $39,000 a year as the maximum salary expenditures for their teams. No limits were placed on club salary expenditures in the Pacific Coast League, however. Limits on other classifications were fixed by unanimous consent of the magnates. Maximum monthly pay- rolls, including manager's salary, will be $4,250 in class A groups; $2,000 in class B; $1,800 in class C and $1,000 in class D.

Los Angeles, Dec. 10.—(#)—Coach Heartley (Hunk) Anderson led his in- fluenza-ridden Notre Dame football -/team within the ramparts of Troy to do battle Saturday with the Univer- sity of Southern California. More than 100,000 were expected to sit in on the struggle, which may have important bearing on the mythical national championship, Weather permitting—and forecasts made no mention of rain—this record crowd hoped to see two stalwart elev- ens tussle to a draw on running plays and sett their differences through the air, with the invading Ramblers 10 to 7 favorites. Barring further and uninvited pre- cipitation, the field will be fast and the weather crisp for the torrid strug- gle, which will see Notre Dame en- deavor to terminate the Trojans’ string of 18 consecutive triumphs just as these same Southern Californians abruptly ended the Rambler reign af- ter going through 26 games unbeaten. ‘Trojans Are Heavier Southern California boasted the advantage in weight, averaging 195 pounds to 187 for Notre Dame. Su- perior speed and experience seemed to balance the ledger in behalf of the invaders. The Trojans have won all of their eight games this year.
