D, Aug. 19—7)—Play ‘a Braddock’s Injury May Post- pone Joe’s Shot at Title Until Fall of 1937 — New York, Aug. 19.—(?)—Back in the full glare of the fistic spotlight, Joe Louis and his entourage Wednes- day were wondering “where do we go from here?” The sepian sharpshooter, with a display of the savagery that made bloody hulks of Primo Carnera and Max Baer, cut down Jack Sharkey, the white-eyed tavern keeper from Boston, in 1:02 of the «third round last night in Yankee stadium before fewer than 30,000 spectators. Louis made good in the same ring where two months ago he was flat- tened by Max Schmeling. The victory did one thing—it launched the erstwhile super-man on the trail. Has Fight in Hand ‘The Brown Bomber had the fight well in hand from the start. He cor- nered the 33-year-old former sailor in the opening seconds, lathered him with a stream of lefts and rights and it looked like the fight might end right there. Sharkey, crafty ring master, weathered the storm, emerg- ing with a pinked nose. Louis stalked his prey in the sec- ond heat, twice dropping the Boston gob for counts of nine as he opened @ nasty cut over Sharkey’s left eye. ‘When the bell sent them out for the third round, Louis tore in with a panther-like rush, nailed Sharkey with a right to the jaw that sent the| Bostonian sprawling headlong on the canvas, almost outside the ropes. Left Ends Fight. Sharkey rose at the count of nine and then, as if drawn by a magnet, walked right into a shower of lefts and rights that ended the fight. Just for the record, the last blow Louis landed was a left-hand smash to the jaw. ! Until Louis is sent in against a fighter of Schmeling’s calibre again. the full extent of his recovery and this greatness cannot be calculated. He left the experts and the masses wondering. To Julian Black and John Rox- borough, Louis’ managers, the fight proved Louis again is the world’s number 1 heavyweight, notwithstand- ing the fact Jimmy Braddock still is champion and Schmeling is the tit- list’s next scheduled opponent. Ready for Schmeling “Joe’s victory means he’s as great as he was before he met Schmeling,” “He's ready to Schmeling again. We'd like to ar- range a re-match before the outdoor season ends.” The German's next engagement is with Braddock. He doesn’t know when but he reiterated Wednesday he will not consider any other opponent until he has an opportunity to recap- ture the title. ‘The heavyweight championship sit- uation still was in a turmoil over Braddock’s request for what amounted to a year’s postponement of his title defense in order to get his injured left hand mended. If the New York State athletic commission grants it, it means Louis probably will have to wait until the fall of 1937 for a title shot. From the crowd and financial standpoint the contest was disap- pointing. The official attendance was 29,331 paid admissions with gross re- ceipts of $159,982 and net of $136,345, of which Louis received 30 per cent and Sharkey five per cent less.

Diz- zy Dean. First he came up with Rookie Jim Winford, who threatens to be the best. of the season's freshman elbowers. TUESDAY’S STARS Pete Appleton, Senators — Held Yankees to nine hits. Claude Passeau, Phillies — Shut out Bees with three hits and hit homer, Ethan Alien, Cubs and Gus Suhr, Pirates — Former drove in two runs with triple, double and singles in doubleheader opener; latter batted in all Bucs’ runs in nightcap. Rey Bell, Browns, and Elden Auker, Tigers — Former had five hits in twin bill opener; Auker pitched six-hit ball and drove in three runs in nightcap. * Larry Rosenthal, White Sox — Had triple and double against Athletics. Mel Ott and Burgess Whitehead, Giants — Former drove in three runs with homer and single in| doubleheader opener; latter had four hits in nightcap. Si Johnson, Cardinals — Held Reds to nine hits. Now Si Johnson, the ex-Cincinnati Red and more recently of the Inter- national League's Toronto Leafs, looks like the goods. As a result, those fast traveling New York Giants are going to have a tough time closing up the 1% game gap between themselves and the Cards. Cards Top Reds the Giants handed their perennial jinx, the daffiness boys from Brook- lyn, a double lacing, 5-3 and 11-5, The Yankees found the Washington Senators too much again and bowed 9-2 for the second straight day in a game that saw Bump Hadley’s 11-) game pitching winning streak end. By winning, the Senators held to fifth place in the American League. The second-place Cleveland In- dians didn’t profit by the Yanks’ downfall, however, as the White Sox pounded out an 11-10 victory in ten innings, to keep the Tribe 1112 games back of murderer's row. Tigers Get 38 Hits The Tigers fired 38 hits in a pair of tilts at St. Louis, but managed only a split with the Browns, taking the nightcap 15-3 behind Elden Auker's six-hit pitching, after dropping the opener 10-7. Rick Ferrell's big bat helped Lefty Grove to his 15th win of the season, as the Red Sox slugged the Athlet- ics 6-2, The Cubs fell farther back of the Giants in the National League chase by getting only an even break in a twin bill with the Pirates. Larry French's pitching took the opener 5-4, while come-backer Waite Hoyt turned in a six-hit job to lead the Bucs to a 3-1 nightcap triumph. The Phillies ended the season's longest losing streak at 14 games by belting the Bees 7-0.
