That punch pushed Arthur Donovan onto the hottest spot he's found in 15 years of officiating.* The bright Yankee Stadium ring lights were hot but a cold sweat broke out on his brow.

Donovan shuts his eyes and shakes his head grimly to this day whenever he recalls that mo- ment “I lived a long time there in a second or so”, he smiles wryly “You remember the situation. For two or three days no one talked of anything but the fight. Louis was an odds-cn favorite, Fans merely were speculating as to how many rounds Max would last. “And then to everyone's amazement—there was Schemling beating him. Max had had Joe on the floor in the fourth round and Louis’ seconds had worked fever- ishly to him ready for the fifth. Joe held his own that round. Then came the bell and the punch “Should Schmeling be disquali- fied? Many thought he should. He should. He had landed a punch after the bell Not A Foul “But it was not foul. J was right on top of them and in the small- est fraction of a second I saw Max start a punch, I heard the bell ring and I saw Max's punch hit Louis.
