- v % ~ BAER, HARD HITTER 1S VIEIOUS FIGHTER In Sport Only Two Years, "Max Confident He Can Unset All Foes. BY CARL BENJAMIN. AN FRANCISCO, November| 14—Out of the West New York is scheduled to get a| heavyweight fighter who. may or may not be able to arouse | the latent interest of fans in the presently depressed sport and business of prizefighting, but one who at least by his ruggedness and viciousness will remind old-time followers of the pastime of the heroes of the hard-hitting pre- ‘Tunney days. Max Baer, of Jewish-German origin, 22 years old, 6 feet 2 inches tall, solidly built, glowering, self-confident and tem- peramental, vicious if a fighter ever was, up to two years ago was a laborer out and around Livermore, Northern California, cattle town. He worked at the slaughter houses and that sort of thing. At an early date he is to be taken “East” to fight top-notchers of the heavyweight division—and many coast they may sa At Baer, express the opinion that he will clean up whatever remains of the heavyweight division in the “Fast.” Has Good Record. ‘The Livermore heavy has had some 30 fights in the two years since Bob Mc- Allister, former national amateur mid- dleweight champion, started to teach him to box, and about two-thirds of the affairs have ended in knockouts for his aopponents. He knocked out Kayo Christner n_two rounds after having him down five times. Les Kennedy gave him a boxing lesson in Los An- geles, otherwise Max has had clear sailing against what opposition could be found for him. His successes inst set-ups and real fighters has not engendered an in- feriority complex in the mind of the son of a Livermore cattle man. In fact, he is said to b2 quite confident that he can do Sharkey, Stribling or any of the others who have gotten their pames prominently in the sporting pages. And the remarkable thing is that some very astute sports followers think the same thing, though some of them, because Baer is a fighter and not a boxer, would ldvuetl start against nen more of his own type. McAllister pbul: Max through his early Aights, but some six months ago parted tompany with him, as the result of some, sort of friction.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.—When Coach Mal Stevens of Yale makes a plan, he sticks to it. His early season idea was to start Chick McLennan at quarter- back and hold Albis Booth in reserve.

FRIDAX, YANKEE AND GIANT PLOTS ARE STERN McCarthy Dominates With| Mental Club—McGraw Is Master by Force. BY GEORGE CHADWICK EW YORK, November 14.— | Joe McCarthy introduced | his square jaw to New York; this week, as he started | laying plans for the New York| Yankees’ Spring training. John J. McGraw also has a square jaw, although it is not set so much at right angles as that of McCarthy. These two Macs will try to bring pen- | nant-winning teams to New York City in 1931, Joe fighting for the American League and “Jawn J.” for the National. McGraw has a habit of looking straight ahead from out of eyes that hypnotize a dumb player. McCarthy | opens his eyes in mild reproach and | his mouth is converted into a line that | extends at right angles to the bottom of his ncse and to an indefinite point betwe=n the right jaw and the left, both | of the latter being conspicuous filling stations of surprise, chagrin, encourage- ment or reproach, as the case may be. Both Severe Masters. When McCarthy's eyes spark, it is | better not to_discuss bone plays with | him. When McGraw’s eyes flame the | offender often has been known to bid | good-by to some of his personally col- | lected shekels. McGraw is master of his team by | force of base ball right and the prestige of his position. McCarthy ‘is master because he wields a mental club which hits wickedly or may mildly chasten the | offender. | | McGraw tefils 2 player to do some- thing and e: .5 him to do it. If he doesn't, it m ; be two or three days before he will hear about it and it may be two or three minutes, but he wiil | hear. | McCarthy tells players they can do things and watches the effect of his tonic. When he first took charge c(i the Chicago Cubs, in 1926, they were | not expected to go very far. Théy had | finished in last place in 1925. It wasn't much of a base ball team, according to | the sages. They said Joe would finish | in the second division. He finished | fourth. McCarthy knows more about the technique of base ball than the average | manager. Technique is backing up | positions, throwing to the right spot and having a player at the right place to get the throw when it is made, and | that sort of thing. Technique Can Help. Some managers do not care for tech- nique. They make any play direct. They don't throw to the infleld to try to deceive a runner. They have their players throw to the spot where some runner is expected to be. Often that s good base ball, but the manager with technique is a bit more adaptable to champlonship teams than the manager without it. McCarthy at present is not discussing his players in the public prints. He doesn’t know the Yankees except by reputation. He will study their careers in private at his home in Buffalo be- tween intervals of motoring and digging himself out of the snow. Jce will not venture a prediction as to where he will finish in 1931, and | that is good medicine. He isn’t half as afrald of Connie Maek as a total stranger _might be, because he played against Mack in one world series—in 1929, whep the Cubs lost to the Ath- letics. fcCarthy thinks his tacties in that series were right. He maintains | | that no man can match tactics against | | the sun and win out. | " 'However, his next world series may | be played aga'nst the Cubs. Some fans | are hoping for a Cub-Yankee clash. | They would like to see Manager Rogers | | Hornsby of the Cubs match his square jaw against Joe McCarthy's square jaw. | * PLAY SERIES GRID TILT. | BALLSTON, Va, November 14 | Washington-Lee High School and C | peper High were to meet today at 3:30 | oclock in a Third Athletic District championship series game. / ‘) /// Nunzi Bsh Arch-Fashioned Oxfords and Shoes “They exercise while support” { NOVEMBER 14, 1650.
