A-13 Louis-Schmeling, Then Title Bout Is Heavyweight Set-Up for Coming Year PLAN PREDICATED ON WINSFOR 0F Must Dispose of Paulino and Another Rival to Reach German Boxer. BY ALAN GOULD. Associated Press Sports Editor. EW YORK, October 23.— The fistic merger involving Mad- ison Square Garden and its No. 1 metropolitan rival in the promotion field, Michael Strauss Jacobs, removes any lingering doubt about the main heavyweight set-up-for 1936. It means that Joe Louis will fight Max Schmeling in June, the winner to be matched with Champion James J. Braddock in September. Both fights probably will be held in the garden’s Long Island City bowl. Jacobs has done some dickering with Detroit and Chicago interests seeking the Louis-Schmeling bout. If it isn't held in New York it will go to Chi- cago. The title fight, however, is a certainty for New York. All this is based on the assumption, first, that Louis will crack the un- crackable chin of Paulino in Decem- ber, besides disposing of the second opponent selected to meet him in March in the Garden; second, that the Garden’s Winter merger with Jacobs and Louis will pave the way for an exteaded agreement covering the 1936 outdoor season. Firm Basis tor Assumption. Tumz seems no sound reason for Sturdy Foe for Cardinals doubting these assumptions. The Garden has pursued a logical course In allying itself with Jacobs. At the same time the Garden’s facilities for both indoor and outdoor promotion make the arrangement attractive for Jacobs. | ‘The latter has paid heavy rentals for using the big league ball parks. He was faced with the necessity of another big financial outlay to equip & suitable indoor arena if he con- tinued to operate independently. The main factor in the deal, of course, is aeither Jacobs nor the Gar- den. It can be identified easily as Joe Louis. The brown bomber is under contract to fight for Jacobs in this country or abroad until 1940. ‘The Negro's three fights last Sum- mer in New York and Chicago against Carnera, Levinsky and Baer grossed $1,500,000. The Garden’s lone out- door heavyweight offering, the Brad- dock-Baer title bout, grossed $205,000. There's no rebuttal to these figures. Garden Bound to Profit. THE Garden can’t lose under the new ‘ agreement with Jacobs. It will collect 121 per cent of the net re- ceipts for each of the indoor bouts featuring Louis. ‘The Paulino match will be for char- ity, with 10 per cent going to the Christmas fund. The Garden will split the profits of the March contest with Jacobs, 50-50, after extraction of the basic 1212 per cent. Presumably, when these returns are in, it will not be difficult to convince the directors of the Garden that a continuation of the working agree- ment with Jacobs and Louis will be worth while next Summer, with at least one and perhaps two million- dollar shows possible. TO PICK DOG WINNERS Derby Stake Decision Due Today in Annual Field Trials. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., October 23 (#).—Excellent hunting conditions and unusually good performances of the dogs marked the first running of the two-day Derby stake of the an- nual field trials of the Virginia Fox Hunters’ Association over the rolling country of Louisa County.

The hounds had been blessed. The horses and riders had been wished godspeed and good luck. Even the fox had received favorable mention. But it was obvious that one thing had been forgotten as the Fairfax Hunt moved away from the historic green of Fairfax Court House last Saturday. That was the weather. A burning sun beat down as the column of threescore horsemen swung into the road, led by a vanguard of pink-coated figures. Hounds already had their tongues lolling as though returning from an early August jog on the road. Occasional flecks of foam drifted off the horses into the still air. ‘When the procession turned off the highway and struck a dirt road, little puffs of dust spurted beneath the horses’ feet. The heart of every hunter sank despairingly beneath overheated coats. On such a day it would be a miracle if hounds were able to carry a line. Scenting would be a feat of magic. The first covert drew blank. Brought out, the pack was roaded to Waples participated.

Believe it or not, Mr. Harlow thinks the Harvard foot ball team has a future. “The team I have now is learning | P! to do'one thing at a time,” he said in the course of a visit to New York this week. “I guess you've noticed that we haven't taken up the matter of scoring yet. That’s the fifth lesson in the Mr. Harlow operates on the same theory as the man who teaches you to play the saxo- phone via the United States mail. This, I recall, is done in ix lessons. dean of my saxophone school to call them “six easy lessons,” many a cheery post card did he to us lads of the class of Feb- , 29, to tell us what a soft touch the saxophone really is.

LARDNER portant ones. Dartmouth comes next, and, at the present stage of develop- ment, there is little hope for Harvard. ‘You might be tempted to say the same thing about the Yale and Princeton games, but here I suspect that Mr. Harlow has something up his sleeve. May Have Jolt for Tiger. ROBABLY he will throw everything he has against Princeton in a try for one big coup. Princeton is by no means invincible, and it would be sweet as honey to the Harvards to clean up that Jersey camp. Why, it would be sweeter than honey. I believe that Mr. Harlow would give the well- laundered shirt off his well-washed back to do it. But don’t get the idea that Mr. Har- low is predicting any such develop- ment. Mr. Harlow simply says, “We ;nli win a major game or two if we're ucky.” Like most gentlemen who step o Tamine, e 1o Deidons <hieny e, el for the future. Harvard never is completely de- void of foot ball material, though there are so many foot ball plants in New England that much of the avallable supply of manpower is side- tracked away from the handsome old diploma mill. They get players, even so. From time to time they get a Ben Ticknor, and a Barry Wood, and s Charlle Devens, and & Shaun Kelly. That gives them something to work on. The Harvard teams of five and six years ago were not greatly superior to the present club, but, with Ticknor iring the line and Mays and Dev- HARE daiintit Lafig‘fi gr BE Hi | 11 H z83 4] B fleld like Derwishes, they did manage to make & pretty fair record. And Wood helped & lot. He was & fine few individusl exhibitions of passing like the one Wood gave against Mich- igan in 1929, again. They hunted long and thor- oughly through an open woods. Dry twigs crackled beneath their feet. The fleld croesed into a meadow and rode down beside a stream. An hour’s steady searching was fruitless. WORKING over to the edge of the Government farm, at last a few hounds spoke. It was slow going and they could not seem to settle on the line. ‘Things began to look up. The others were working in to them, and the voices came steadier and clearer to the fleld, waiting in an opening be- side the covert. Then they were “gone away.” It was a brilliant, swift burst across the country for more than a mile and into another woods. There the tongues were stilled again. They had lost in the dusty leayes. The huntsman, spirits up after a morning of hopeless halloaing, whip- | ped straight at a wire fence, popped over and rushed down to pull the hounds together again and try to guide them to the line. A pall of de- feat settled on the riders once more. A lead hound spoke again, but briefly. After three hours and a half. it seemed the jig was up. Re- signedly the masters led the fleld away and turned for the long hack back to the club house. As somebody said, “Ten cub hunts this season and one blank day (it was dry then, too). One formal hunt, as disheartening as 10 blank days.” ©Oh, well, the luck of the game. W!m.!: it neither sought nor re- ceived advance publicity, Dr. H. A. Wood's private horse show must be accounted one of the major suc- cesses of the season. Only owners and members of their families were allowed to ride, no horse was permitted to win more than one blue ribbon in any of the classes at Woodbourne on Sunday, but 1,000 people turned out to see that sort of ‘thing—contrary to all theories of the professional show circuit. There were about 30 entries in the hack class alone. Carlton Eacho's Drill won it and later went home with the champion- ship. It was an amateur day from tip to toe, and we congratulate the spon- sor on his sagacity in'so making it.

LEADING BOOTERS BATTLE TOMORROW Mount Rainier's Perfect Record Threatened in Clash With Maryland Parkers. STR!VIING to maintain its perfect record at the top of the Prince Georges County Soccer League against a team seeking to inject itself into a tie for first place, the Mount Rainier undefeated team will meet Maryland Park tomorrow afternoon at Mount Rainier at 3 o'clock. Another game of vital interest was scheduled for the same time today at Laurel, where the local club will play host to Hyattsville. Mount Rainier Juniors continue to reign over the county’s junior soccer league, the result of yesterday's 6-3 victory over Hyattsville. It was the third straight triumph for the win- ners. ‘Taylor, Riddle and Miller scored for Mount Rainier, while Stonecliff registered Hyattsville's only two- pointer. J. White countered with the only penalty kick of the day early in the game. HILLTOP TRANGFER LOST BY PURDUE Skoronski, Captain, Ruled Out for Few Minutes of Play in 1931. By the Associated Press. AFAYETTE, Ind., October 23— Becsuse a “scrub” named Ed 8koronski played a’ few minutes of foot ball for Georgetown University, Washington, D. C., in 1931, Purdue University’s undefeated 1935 eleven faces the rest of its schedule without the services of its captain and center. Skoronski, 6-foot-3-inch, 210-pound Chicago boy, in his third season as pivot of the Boflermaker forward wall, was declared ineligible for further competition under the Western Con- ference three-year rule by the faculty Athletic Committee last night. Blow to Purdue Hopes. TH! action struck a heavy blow at hopes of Purdue supporters for at least a share of the Big Ten foot ball title this season, hopes based on vic- tories already scored over Northwest- ern and Chicago. Preparations for Saturday’s game here with Carnegie Tech proceeded with George Bell, De- troit, Mich., junior, at the center posi- tion. Skoronski's few minutes of action for Georgetown, ruled as counting for a full year's competition, occurred be- fore he graduated from high school. He left Georgetown before the end of the semester, returned to finish his course at Bowen High School, Chicago, and entered Purdue in the Fall of 1932, He was a member of the base ball and track teams here. Whether a new captain will be elected or a temporary leader named for each remaining game was unde- termined. Skoronski's ineligibility does not affect results of games already played, it was said.

Mabelle Hering Winning Way To High Spot in Maple Game; Holy Namers Have 50 Quints NE of the most effective bowl- ing deliveries possessed by any of the topnotch girl bowlers of the city is slowly but surely making Mabelle Hering one of the real stars of the Ladies’ District League. For three years the new and enter- prising captain of the Convention Hall team has bent every effort to gain control of the zip she puts on the ball. This season her once wild heaves in- variably are hitting their mark. From the time Mabelle became a member of his team Charlie Bell, the Convention Hall boss, held great prom- ise for her. And quite naturally he was pleased as much as Miss Hering herself the other night when she rolled a 340-set with strings of 105, 113 and 122, which paved the way for her club to whitewash National Beer. Incidentally, the Convention Hall girls seems to have acquired the knack of winning close games. They are tied for second place with Lucky Strike, with six wins and three losses. To clean-sweep Northeast Temple, the middle tilt was won by a lone maple. Two of the games against National Beer were won in the last frame. Arcadia, after dropping three games to Rosslyn on the opening night, has perked up, winning two games from National Beer and the Bill Woods. Capt. Doris Goodall's 129 and Eliza- beth Minson’s 120 turned the trick in the first game against the Bill Woods, while Ruth Rothgeb and Esther Bur- ton collaborated to win the second with 113 and 111. Lucky Strike brought to a halt the winning streak of six games of the champion Rosslyn girls by taking the odd game. Chips From the Mapleways.
