There was talk of a $400,000 gate at Miami last winter but there is no way to kid an adding machine and when they got through with ‘ the figures, the total was less than g $200,000. Sharkey’s erratic record and Max Schmeling’s long absence from com- petition in this country mnot only make the “build-up” difficult but present obstacles to forming any definite conclusions about what may happen. For Sharkey, it can be said that if he fights one of his best rigl\‘.s[ he figures to win handily. If he is as wild as he was against Phil Scott, he probably will have his ears cuffed off. Schmeling, unless he has been a trifle softened up by motion picture stuff, seems rugged enough to take anything in Sharkey’s punching repertoire and remain vertical. Tha German’s similarity to Dempsey does not extend to the possession of the Manassa Mauler’s killing punch | but Der Maxie isya solid and persis- tent clouter, just the sort to anncy' the leaping Lithuanian. On the record of their last two important fights, Sharkey against | Loughran and Scott, Schmeling against Risko and Paulino, the Ger- | man figures to better advantage. i | | DANCE | AT THE : ELKS | HALL The Tone lector Saturday Night Serenaders .7 A The deep melody of the basses is brought out when the indicator of the Tone Selcctcr is in this position. cuse won the 400-meters and Ted Meredith, then a Pennsylvania schoolboy, broke the world’s record in the 800-meter run.
