2 Low Blow to Cost Points in Heavy Fight | k, who leatned fo manipulate’| MAN WHO 1S HIT ALSD TO GET REST Unusua'l\Rule: Will Govern| Stribling-Schmeling Go at Cleveland. BY EDWARD J. NEIL, Associated Press Sports Writer. EVELAND, June 20.—1It| used to be that a oouplei of heavyweight prize fight- | ers would meet in Dia- mond Joe’s, there’d be a chal-| lenge and an acceptance, someone would post a stake and the drinks| n would be on the house. But that was before big business took over the fight game; a heavyweight title became @ $1,000,000 asset, and fighters were something to nurse and cherish like hot house flowers for the ‘Winter trade. Now there are rules, and Tules, and regulations and stipulations, and the 15-round battle of Champlon Max Schmeling and Bill Stribling here the night of July 3 probably sets a new high in this respect. It would take a Philadelphia lawyer | to decipher all the rules laid down ny the five-man Cleveland Boxing Com- | mission, headed by Arthur Chiee, for the conduct of the first heavyweight | title affray Ohio has nurtured since Jack Dempsey massacred Jess Willard on & sun-scorced battle field at Toledo in 1919. The ancient idea that it| wasn't ethical to bite if the referee was looking has advanced by easy stages to a set of regulations that ai the most complicated ever laid down for a title engagement. Guards Aganist Fiasce. One thing is certain, however, there will be no repetition of the situation that developed in the Yankee Stadium last June when Jack Sharkey buried a low left hook in the German's body and crowned a champion by a foul for the first time in the history of heavy- ‘weight title affairs. Either Stribling or Schmeling may | hit low this time, but the rules here say | the offender shall lose points and the sufferer shall rest up for five minutes, after which he must struggle into the battle pit in the new municipal stadium again or be lared the loser on a technical knockout. No such régula- tion has ever before governed a heavy- weight championship match. Fouls such as butting, kidney punch- ing and refusal to stop clinching, may bring loss of points, the round, or even the decision at the discretion of the referec. The commission has ruled even further that a claim of foul not recognized by the referee may cost the injured battler not only the de- cision, but even his share of the purse | with an additional fine plastered on for good measure. ‘The battlers have wailed long and Joud at these stringent conditions, but the commission has held fast. The ref- eree also may halt the bout at any time | if he sces evidence of “stalling” and both warriors will forfeit their purses if | this happens. The referee will be chosen by the managers of both fl(hurs from list of five nationally known officials few davs before the contest on the ! eve of July 4. Two other referees from ' the list will act as judges. Seat Sale Is Begun. With the duel less than two weeks away. the flying squadron of ticket sell- ers of the Madison Square Garden Cor- poration of Ohio barnstormed through the State tocay, rallying the citizens to the box office windows. The warriors, both in splendid condition, labored in | their training camps, schmelinx batter- ing his sparring partner in an afternoon ‘workout at Conneaut Lake, Pa., 91 miles from here, while Stribling held his fire | until it was night at Geauga Lake, just | outside of the city. The Southern chal- lenger is doing all his preparatory work | under conditions that approximate those | he will encounter the night of the fight. Both Stribling and Schmeling are close to fighting weight and will scale Alo HE thrill of nursing along those frail, tricky and topheavy sail- ing canoes has gotton under the skins of so many of Washing- ton's water sport lovers that Jack Haz- rard, secretary of the Washington Sall- ing Club, predicts this will be one of the greatest sailing canoe seasons in the history of the upper Potomac. 1t is no wonder.
