Another broadside from Yawkey’s huge bankroll Tuesday, which brought | Jimmy Foxx, mighty slugger, andj; Pitcher Johnny Marcum to his Bos- | ton Red’Sox from Mack's Philadel- phia Athletics, touched off the strug-! gle over the balance of American deal, ers and itl = $150,- mated at 000, was hardly announced _before| the world cham- pion Detroit Tig- ers were actively! involved. sling discussed by Coach Francis Schmidt ( League power.

Jacobs controls Louis’ ring activities for the next five years, and as things Stand now, Joe is the No. 1 contender There can’t be a title bout for any- one else unless he is disposed of. The New York state athletic commission made that clear in refusing to ap- prove a Schmeling-Braddock match j Unless Schmeling first met the Brown Bomber from Detroit. As a result of that refusal the com- mand performance was settled in lit- tle or no time. The negotiations ran something like this: Commissioners: “No.” Schmeling: “All right, Louis.” Jacobs: “Let’s go.” It then required about ten minutes in Jacobs’ office for Schmeling to agree, to a 15-round battle against Louis at the Yankee stadium in June. Each fighter will get 30 per cent of the gate, which Jacobs says will be more than $1,000,000, after the Milk Fund has skimmed 10 per cent off the top. If Schmeling wins, Jacobs has an option on his service for the next Til fight 8 UZCUDUN'S DURABLE | CHIN 10 GET MAJOR JOLTING ON FRIDAY’ Skeptical N. Y.
