THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, 'THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1986 Giants Stay Ahead in National Despite Errors, Injuries” Max Schmeling in United States for Another Big Clean-Up in Purses — MEDAL PLAY EVENT WILL OPEN ‘BISMARCK TOURNAMENT SEASON HUBBELL HURLS 2ND WIN AS TERRYMEN TRIM PHILLIES, 7-7 Circuit Smashes by Chapman, Riggs Enable Reds to Beat Cards, 7-6 EARNSHAW SHUTS OUT BEES Nats Outhit Red Sox But Lose 4-3; Browns Wallop Cham- pion Tigers, 12-6 (By the Associated Press) Scrambling from one shaky victory to another, the New York Giants are doing their level worst in the Na- tional League these days, but for all their staggering they can't fall off the top of the pile. In fact they keep climbing. They have been charged with 15 errors in eight games; their pitchers have squandered long leads; their team is riddled by injuries. but in meeting every emergency Manager, Bill Terry has been so superbly right that the substitute in almost every case has done better than the original. Wednesday's Stars Bill Terry and Hank Leiber, Giants—Terry hit triple and two singles to drive in three runs; Lei- ber got homer with two on against Phillies. George Earnshaw, Dodgers— Held Boston Bees to five hits for first victory of season. Calvin Chapman and Lew Riggs, | Reds—Hit home runs in eighth against Cards, Chapman driving in two runs with his pinch blow. Harland Clift, Browns—Led 18- hit attack on Tiger pitchers by driving in four runs with double | and two singles. | Fred Ostermueller, Red Sox— Scattered Senators’ 12 hits and drove in two runs with double in 4-3 victory. | First, he picked Rookie Harry Gum- bert to pitch the second game of the season. Gumbert pitched a four-hit game and won. Then Dick Bartell fell ill. Terry put in Joe Martin. This rookie has batted .667 so far. Next Sam Leslie reported with a fever and Terry put in Terry. His first day out, substitute Terry got three hits in three times out; Wednesday against the Phils he got three more. Stage Slugging Bees The Browns and the Reds topped the day's slugging performances, and the Dodgers saw Big George Earn- shaw stage a sudden return lo his pre-season pitching form to white- wash Boston. 3 The Terrymen won their second straight from Jimmy Wilson's Phillies ‘7-2. It also was Carl Hubbell's second victory of the season, and just to add to the general inconsistency of the New York scene, Carl hit three singles in four times up. There were two home runs in the game, Leiber smashing one in the first with two on, and Jimmy Wil- son hitting one in the seventh. The only other home runs in the majors Wednesday were hit in thej eighth inning of the Reds-Cards game at Cincinnati by utility Out- fielder Calvin Chapman and Low Riggs, both of the Reds. These hits, scoring three runs, enabled the Reds to defeat the Cards, 7-6 Infielders Bag Base Hits Earnshaw turned in the besi pitcl ing Job of the season for the Dodgers,!ing staff—with prospects that may a five-hitter which shut out the Bees, 5-0, Every man in the Brooklyn in- field, Hassett, Frey, Geraghty anc Bucher hit safely twice out of four times up. The Dodgers had only two other hits. In the American League, the Red Sox, outhit 12-6, beat the Senators, 4-3, and edged closer to the league lead. Fred Ostermueller, Rei Sox pitcher, drove in two runs with his double in the fifth. Hitting safely 18 times, the Browns won their second straight game from the world champion Tigers, 12-4, in the only other game played in the majors. The Pirate-Cubs, Yankees-Athletics, and White Sox-Indians games were postponed because of cold weather.

Six “freshmen” are included on this {year’s squad of eleven players. From the south’s crop, the Asso- ciation selected Atlanta’s Charley Yates. {_ Three from the southwest, Walter | Emery, Reynolds Smith and Ed White, ;made the team for the first time. From the west coast, two Seattle entries, Scotty Campbell and Harry Givan, got preference. ; In the east, Captain Francis Oul- met, George Voigt and George T. Dunlap Jr., a former champion, were selected. Johnny Goodman and Johnny Fischer, the former Big Ten cham- pion, were picked from a midwestern crop of candidates.

A reward of $250,000 would swell meling’s receipts in this country to 203,600 in eight years. Only Jack Dempsey. Gene Tunney, and Jack Sharkey earned more than that in the ring.

D., where members of the Saint squad will be Capt. Art Helbling, only returning letterman from last year; Dick Rausch and Eddie Reff are entered in the special 100-yard dash for high schools. Boelter has also entered two baton- passing quartets in the half mile and ‘medley relays. Helbling, Rausch, Reff and Nicky Schneider comprise the Saints half- mile relay team while Helbling, Reff, Rausch and Maynard Entringer make iest fighter of all time. Despite his rich return, the Black Uhlan is to tackle a standout warrior for the first time in Louis. The only good hftter he met, Max Baer, stopped him. up the team entered in the medley event. Boelter planned to give his charges a light workout at Ellendale on the |way south, returning here Friday Schmeling first arrived in New York j night. about the time that Gene Tunney re- tired in July, 1928, Frankfurter then was an obscure heavyweight with a broken hand.

He next col- tlected $6,800 for jSekyra, and was made when he stop- outpointing Joe ped Johnny Risko, for which job he banked $15,000. He picked up another | $2,000 for putting the slug on Pietro Corri in Newark before returning to the Fatherland. Riding Boats Profitable No other fighter ever rode the boats with anything even approaching the financial success of Schmeling. 1929, he dragged down $50,000 for anj exhibition tour before grabbing $74,000 more for outgalloping Paulino Uzcu- dun, In In 1930, Schmeling became the first heavyweight champion to win the title while lying in the slag. The Pretzel Pounder drew down $174,000 for being fouled by Sharkey in the fourth round, and the pictures, etc., added $37,000 more. When Schmeling refused to give Sharkey a return match in 1931, the New York Boxing Commission drove him to Cleveland and a $106,000 purse for stopping the late Young Stribling. Before reporting in Cuyahoga county, the erstwhile farm laborer, stone layer, factory hand, structural | steel worker, and solicitor for an ad- vertising agency gleaned another $100,000 on an exhibition tour. typist, Schmeling saved Sharkey for 1932, when he was paid another $174,000 for dropping the title on a debatable de- cision. Another $41,000 came in the way of pictures, etc. Mickey Walker gained considerable recognition as a heavyweight by hold- ing Sharkey even in 1931, and the astute Joe Jacobs, managing Schmel- ing, wished to eliminate the Jersey Bulldog as a possible opponent for Sharkey in 1933, so the Teuton got $54,000 more for ironing out the small- er Irishman in the fall of 1932. German’s Assets Punch, Pride Schmeling’s last big American purse was the $74,000 he was paid for be- ing halted by Baer in 1933. He col- lected $14,800 for being outslapped by Steve Hamas in his last American ap- pearance early in 1934. Schmeling wanted no part of Europe, except as a place to reside, after becoming famous on this side, but fell back on it following his re- versal at the heavy fists of Baer. Herr Moxie collected the equivalent of $30,- 000 in pesetas when he was held even by Uzcudun in Barcelona, and what represented $35,000 in marks for shad- ing the same old battered Basque in his last start in Berlin last July. He got $60,000 for stopping blond Wal- ter Neusel in Hamburg and $35.000 for flattening Hamas in Berlin. In all, Schmeling has earned $1,250,- 000 with his fists, which isnt’ bad for a bloke with little besides a right-hand wallop and sullen pride. Schmeling’s good fortune is holding to the last, for he is to collect his largest share of swag at a time when even many of his landsmen and staunchest admirers admit that he isn’t what he was the night he belted Risko out of the big money class. Paul Damski, who promoted Schmeling’s more important early starts in Berlin, doubts that his one- time protege will go a round with Louis. Many critics predict that Herr Moxie won't lost a great deal longer. But Schmeling will return to the Rhineland with a quarter of a mil- lion!

Verret, assistant attorney general, rul- ed Thursday. Verret’s ruling followed a query by Theodore Martell, commissioner of agriculture and labor and chairman of the athletic commission, as to whether the sales tax applied to ad- mission fees to boxing exhibitions. Under section five of chapter 91 of the 1935 session laws creating ‘the commission, 10 per cent of the gross receipts of boxing exhibitions shall: be collected by the commission and. turned into the state treasury, Verret | pointed out. i Verret held the collection of the; gross receipts percentage constituted , a special tax imposed by the state and | hence came within the provisions of | the state sales tax which provide no sales tax shall be imposed on sales; of articles upon which the state like- | wise imposes a special tax. { | Schmeling, Louis Get Set for Hard Grinds| Sey | New York, April 23.—(7)—The first | licks of preparation for the Joe Louis- ; Max Schmeling heavyweight fight,‘ other than those already delivered by Promoter Mike Jacobs, are scheduled for Thursday. i Schmeling was slated to visit Peek- skill, N. ¥., to look over a possible training camp site at the Oregon Country club.
