Read Telegraph Want Ads Daily Hitting From The Inside Out For Sport Fans BV EDDIE BRIETZ Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK, June 16, special: Joe Louis will lick Max Schmellng at the Yankee Stadium Thursday night and will immediately sign to meet James J. Braddock for the world's heavyweight title in September. If you have any doubt that you can get all the 3 tol money you want at a dozen Broadway spots chances are it will be 4 to 1 by Thursday. It is this corner's guess administer the old sleep, producer five rounds If we-hwct to, bet on it, we'd take the.fourth It is our personal opinion can, pick his round after the first.

Schmellng looks just fair Theyj say he is as good as ever as; Cousin Paul Mickelson of the AM'si rioints out, that ain't good enough; Max is older and slower He's 1 easy to hit Even such clods as Heinz Kohlhaas had no trouble landing right hand belts during the Napanoch training season Schmellng thinks he has Louis' weakness, but you can forget about that Joe han't any; has a lot shodt Wi 1 If he beats Louis and then goes on to recapture the title from Braddock, Hitler will do everything but make him Grand Vizer He'll create a special- cabinet portfolio lor, putting him in charge of all sports in; Germany. That wguldfi't be half bad for a lad who was just a fighter's second less than years ago. Don't let anybody.kid you about Louis' condition All those gloomy yarns sent out from Lakewood by Dr. Mike Jacobs' high-prlved press agents are so much hoo'ey Joe is W'p'early inuthV pink-asm is'pos- sible-for a brown-skinned lad'to be He's looked slow and listless at times, but that was only part pf the plot to trp to build up Schmeling While Louis looked terrible during some of his Lakewood drills; you'll notice he always perked up and went to town when one of his sparring partners got fresh. Baer Doing His Clowning In the Ring Once tylor.e SALT CITY, June 16 Maxle Baer was on.

the comeback trail today in an announced drive to regain fistic honors and the finances that go with them. The former heavyweight champion clowned, boxed, and slugged through six rounds last night to win a referee's decision over Tony Souza, 220-pound California boxer: Baer, weighing 226, dropped Souza for three short counts in the fifth round, but failed to follow up his advantage. He also floored the coast battler in the second round. Public Seems to Be Ticket for Scliiiieling Bout Short" Of Expectations By GOULD 'Associated Presk Editor NEW YORK, Juries 16, ctinfidence may not affect the ability of Joe LouiS to make relatively short work of Max Schmellng in their 15-round heavyweight match in the Yankee Stadium Thursday night but it has, relatively speaking, struck a blow at the gate receipts. With the advance sale, today beyond the half-million mark, there is no danger Of any of the parties Involved losing but the "gate" is likely to fall considerably short of the goal of million.

Even with a belated rush for the box-office the aggregate is unlikely to exceed $750,000, which means. that Louis and Schmellng each may have to be satisfied with a paltry $200,000 for their efforts to entertain aywhore from 00,000 to 70,000 onlookers. Until the public rush developed an unexpected million-dollar "gate" for the Louis-Baer fight last September, the first since depression days, anything like a half million dollars seemed Just a dream to promoters. The punching power in the firsts of Louis set the new boom going, revived box-office confidence, made the business Originally, Promoter Mike Jattibsl stadium to handle house, at top, the Louis-Schmelingibout. Jeast of Mike's difficulties Involved' the disposal of highest priced tickets.

It's the apathy of the $8 and $10 customers that has Affected the ad- Vtmce sale. "I still have hopes the gate will hit that million mark," said Mike Jacobs today as he simultaneously ij telephones, held forth. of few dozen papermen, and directed general arrangements. "The bad weather of the last' few. days lias cooled things off a bit but we expect a rush for the block of seats 'offered especially to war veterans, who want to spend some of that bonus money." Less than 50,000 of the available 55,000 tickets have been sold, so that it will require a big rush if the figh't is even close to a sell-out.

Primarily the apathy of the cash customers is -traced to the belief Schmellng has no than a Chinaman's chance to halt the sensational' 'winning' streak of the. Brown Bomber. Not event the most strenuous publicity efforts to build up the German, veterans prospects, coupled with' dork hints that Louis is a trifle stale, have, altered the popular conviction that the negro Can name the punch and the round.
