While Schmeling has Leen univer- sully praised for his decisive victory over Paoline Uscudun, hitherto re- garded as the strongeet and roughest of all heavyw ready to coricede the heavyweight title to Herr Max. Tommy Loughran, light-heavy- weight champion, is one of these who finds fault with the present ability of Schmeling. “Schnieling is & good prospect.” Tommy sald, “but u long way from a heavyweight champion. If breught along preperly he may develop into a champion but he can be ruined if he is overmatched. “I see Schmeling now as a good hoxer with a cool head, nothing more. The terrific punch T heard he had was nowhere in evidencs against Paolino or he would have won hy a kneckout.” Willlam F. Carey. Madison S8quare Garden, Schmeling leoks like a champlon.” “He satisfied me that he 1s a great fighter by the way he whipped olino, as game a ter as ever stepped into the ring.” Carey eald. “I think most everyone who saw Schmeling in action agrees with me.” Experience 18 what Schmeling {necds now more than anything clse in the opinion of many smart hoxing men, “It Schmeling Is kept active and not allowed to think he has th heavyweight title won he promiees jto develop into a great fighter,” said | Jack McAulliffe. retired undefeated | lightweight champion. “He is no | Dempsey and never will be. many fine qualities. including a lert jam reminiscent of Gene Tunney, but I still think his black hair is the only thing about him that reserubles Dempsey.” A resumption of the wrangle over Schmeling's contract between his American managers, headed by Joe Jacobs and the German newspaper- wan, Arthur Bulow, who brought the Black Uhlan of the Rhine to this president of thinks “tuture country in May. 1928, threatens o, be resumed all over again. Bulow has eerved notice through ! his legal advisers that he expects' Schmeling to go through with a cen- tract he has made for him te fight Phil 8cett of England for Humbert I. Fugazy at Ebbets Field. Until Schmeling’s contract tang! ie straightened out Madison Sauar Garden will not attempt to do bum- with him. accerding to William arey. The Garden has Jack Sharkey of | Boston signed to fight any oppenent I selécted for him in September and has untjl July 15 to name the man. All talk of a match between Jack Dempeey and Schmeling is prema- ture as Madison Square Garden has not opéned negotiations with the former champion. nor. according te | Carey. does it intend to until Demp- | ey efficially announces his return !to the ring. | It Jack returns to the ring T be. | | F lieve he will ficht for Madison Square Carden.” Carey said. “but | jhave not heard anything from him t woull lcad me to belicve he is coming bacl. 'l enly believe he's coming hack when he tells me <o | himeetr.” | For the present. Schmeling will accopt a four or six weeks raude- ville contract after which he will take a rest. Meanwhile, the Ger- man's contract dispute may keep him idle for some time. No explanation is known for the peculiar method of computing points used in tennis. He has/ CHAMPION WILL BE UNDERDOG IN BOUT 2.8 SO ONT o B8 CHAMP Seldom if ever In the history of boxing, has a champion been such an underdeg in the betting as will be Joe Dundee, welterweight title. holder, when he steps into Floyd Fitzimmon's Detroit ring with the challenger, Jackie Fields. The concensus of ring followers s that the Baltimore Italian has only Chinaman’'s chanee in Kkeeping Fields out of the threne room and many expect Jackie to step Joe in a few rounds. Dundee, who lifted the cham- plonship from Pete Latzo in 1927, has slipped badly during the last lyear while Fields has come up stead- ily through the featherweight, lightweight and welterweight ranks and today is regarded the cleverest man at his weight. As early as a year after winning the title the Baltimore Italian show- |ed signs of slipping. When Young ! Jack Thompson, Chicago's leading ! welter knocked him out in twe ,rounds, the fistic musicians started ite sound their A's for Joe's swan. “nonl. Thompson had come in over- weight however and Joe's crown was saved. Later he was beaten twice by Al Mello and was unimpressive in most of his other fights. Fields was matched with Thomp- son and wen easily. The National Boxing Asseciation proclaimed him their champion and a Dundee-Fields match became the cry of the ring bugs. However, in tuning up fights for the Detroit acrap. Dundee has beat. en such tough bahies as Young Ket- chell and ‘Bllly Alger and the long price lovers will have a fine oppor- |tunity te become wealthy if they \risk a buck or two on the lantern- jnwed oyster schucker. It would he a slick spot for a killing if Joe can rezain the form he enpoyed when he whipped Latzo. WATCHING THE SCOREBOARD By the United Press. . Yesterday's hero—Pat Malone. whose pitching and hitting helped the Chicago Cubs beat the 8t. Louis Cardinals, % to 5. and gain the Na- tional league lead.

He {has won his last ten games from i the Pirates, Ceneral Crewder allowed the Chi- | cage White Sox but five hits and the St. Louis Browns strengthened their hold on first place with a 7 te 2 vic- tory.
