BERTHS I 4 Back On Famous Brown Iron Men Eleven, Two Ex-Pioneer Players to Assist In Coaching Football Team IN FINE CONDITION Training Routine Never Changed as German Prepares for Important Bouts MAX BAER Skipping rope at hie Atlantic City training camo in preparation for bout with Schmeling early in June. TILDEN PREDICTS DEFEAT OF U. IN DAVIS GUP PLAY i Forecast of Disaster Follows Rejection of Offer of a 4 Services in Coaching Team ring, although once in a while he will break into a quick smile.

His right hand is always dangerous whether from eight inches or two feet. He can throw it from any angle or from any position. His left isnt so good as Baers for all-around punching purposes, but it is better than it was two years ago. Respect Baer's Prowess Both Schmeling and, Joe Jacobs figure Baer to he the best man the German has faced. But Jacobs figures his fighter knows too much for Baer will outthink him and will land two punches to one.

"It makes no difference how hard a man can hit," Jacobs says, "If he cant hit you. Schmeling is hard to hit, while Baer is much more open. And Schmeling is a sure, accurate puncher, while Baer isnt so accurate. I know how tough Baer is supposed to be, and he probably is. But he is still Just human being and he cant afford to take too many of those right hands and think he is on a picnic.

Schmeling has a better defense to work with and a more dependable attack. Thats where the story lies. "You cant afford to underrate a fellow 6 feet 3, who weighs 210 pounds, who is fast and who can hit. We are not looking an easy spot. But Schmeling will win.

Hell win through superior smartness and skill. iAny thing can happen in a fight between two good heavyweights. But It is always more likely to happen to the fellow who is easier to nail. It may be that Schmeling has never met anyone who can hit as hard as Baer, but dont forget that Baer has never met anyone as smart as Schmeling Who could hit as hard. Schmeling is ready to fight now.

All we have to watch Is that he keeps his present edge and doesnt get stale. And I can say now that Be is much nearer right than he was a year ago against Jck Sharkey, although he finished that fight just about as fres.h when he started. (Copyright. 1933. N.

A. Inc.) BAER WILLING TO HAVE JACK DEMPSEY REFEREE ATLANTIC CITY, May 31 (A. While Max Baer took a day off in his preparations for his 15-round scrap with Max Schmeling next Thursday, the referee question came to the fore in camp discussions and was promptly disposed of. The discussion arose from the suggestion that Jack Dempsey assume the duties of the third man in the ring. Baer and his manager, Ancil Hoffman, agreed that it would be all right with them to have the old Man Mauler as referee.

He did the jofi when Baer lost to Paulino TJzcudun at Reno two years ago. Hoffman added that it didnt really matter who served as referee as his only duties would be to count up to 10 over Schmeling when the Californian knocked him out. Baer spent today lounging around his cottage at Ventnor. He already appears fit to enter the ring but he plans to resume boxing tomorrow and continue through Sunday, when his heavy workouts will be terminated. SCHMELING PLANS ONLY FOUR MORE WORKOUTS UKE SWANNANOA, May 31 (A.

Max Schmeling plans only four more workouts In his preparations for his bout with Max; Baer at the Yankee Stadium, June, 8. The foimer champion will box tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday, his manager, Joe Jacobs, announced, today. He probably will start for New York next Wednesday. Rain kept Schmeling Indoors most of today, although he managed to find time for ome fishing late in the afternoon. He weighed 190 pounds this morning and may take off another pound before he steps into the ring.

prised by the reply received from Prentice," said Tilden. "The offer was made in good faith and the belief that my long experience against the French on their home grounds might be helpful to an American team that is so anxious to win back the cup." Tilden has great admiration for Ellsworth Vines, the American champion, but considers the Californian still short of his peak as a player and believes the United States will bump into another stonewall defense by the French cupholders. As a matter of fact our team may be lucky to get past the inter-zone finals, where they probably will appear Australia," asserted Big Bill. "Jack Crawford, the Australian champion, is capable of winning two singles matches. England also is a strong factor.

AUTEUIL, France, May 31 (A. -The only American threat to the mens singles title in the French hard court tennis championships was removed today with the defeat of Frank X. Shields, United States Davis Cup player in 1931 and 1932, Left-handed Christian Boussus, third ranking French star, defeated Shields In four sets, 63, 62, 26, 64, in a fourth round match to stand beside Marcel Bernard and Henri Cochet as defender of the title the French have held Inviolate since it first was thrown open to the world In 1925. Boussus repelled Shields with the same style of play other French stalwarts of the courts have used in turning back other American advances, keeping the ball in play until the American, with his smashing game, fell into an error. Although Shields was eliminated as a contender strong field still remained for the three Frenchmen to defeat, including Roderich Menzel of Czechoslovakia, Giorgio de Stefant of Italy, who put out the veteran Frenchman, Jacques Brugnon, 6 4, 63, 62, Dr Daniel Prenn of Germany, V.

CARTER A Thrill By GRANTLAND RICE LAKE SWANNANOA, NJ, May 31 The contrast between Schmeling jmd Baer, apart from the physical aide. Is heavily marked. They are as far apart as the out posts on a Siberian frontier. Where Baer is a young mountain of careless irresponsibility. Max Schmeling is one of tha most Berious young men I have ever seen.

He is pleasant, he has a nice smile, there is no part of the grouch about him. But where Baer likes a crowd around him, Schiheling likes to he alone. The minute Schmellng has finished a meal he is uj4 and away from the table with a disappearing act, and he doesnt waste any time leaving the others to their own table talk. Training Plans Unchanged In the matter of training, Schmeling has Teuton thoroughness down to the final word. There hasnt been the slightest change in his training methods in the last four years.

No road work no rope skipping-little shadow boxing little bag punch-in. He boxes from tour to six rounds, plays golf now and then, but makes a point of walking from 10 to 15 miles a day. Schmeling likes the woods. He likes to wander around and study such bird life as he can find. He likes to walk and keep on walking.

No man In ring history ever kept in better physical shape. Four years ego I saw him weigh in at 189 pounds. When he stepped on the scales here be was just 189 pounds. Even through a long off season he breaks no rules of strict training and keeps up all the exercise anyofle needs. Schmeling has made no effort to change his method of boxing or fighting.

His idea is to perfect the system he has always had. not to fool around with any new stuff. Tries to Wear Down Foes He keeps crowding in at close range, hoping to wear his opponent down with that jolting yshort right to stomach or head. His idea is to set his own pace, to force his opponent into his own plan. He comes on with short, choppy steps with the most complete concentration on his work that you will see in sport.

There are few tricks to his system-outside of a quick right when he seems to be relaxing or getting ready to step away. He may not be a great heavyweight but he is a good one. He is strong, game, aggressive, hard to hit and ho can hit with that right. His left is only so-so. His main Idea is the wearing-down process.

After the 15-roumd Stribling fight on a night of boiling July heat, he ran 500 yards to his dressing room. He was as fresh at the finish as ho was at the start. At the age of 27 he is now at his peak or pnme. Schmeling has the body of an acrobat almost of a contortionist. It is elastic to a surprising degree.

You might think it composed largely of rubber. He has a knack of suddenly lifting eltner his right or left shoulder well above the jaw line to block a punch. This is one of the reasons itt is so difficult to nail him around the 'head. There is always a shoulder barring the way, a shoulder that might be made of lubber. In the same fashion he can roll or twist his rubbery body out of the way when a punch starts.

He has had practically no mark of any sort on bead or body after his last three or four fights. He rarely changes expression in the FOOTE AND PLAYFAIR TO RACEFOR PLACE Winner Jo Run Against Oxford-Cambridge Arthur Foote 2d and Robert S. Playfair are expected to run off a 3000-meter race in the Stadium today, weather permitting, for a place in that avent on the Harvard-Yale track team which meets Oxford and Cambridge in the Stadium in July. Foote, a senior, captained the crosscountry team at Harvard this year, while Playfair, the freshman crosscountry captain, has starred in the distances in the freshman track team, winning both the 1500 and 3000 meter against Yale. The two runners, close friends, are the best two-milers on the squad Cambridge, and neither particularly wants to beat the other.

However, Coach Eddie Farrell feels that to race them is the beat way to determine the better man, and the battle should be a good one. Play-fai- won his two long races against the Yale freshmen, both by wide margins. Foote, on the other hand, suffering from a spiked heel, was nosed out by Minor of Yale in the 3000 meters. Foote won his 3000 meters against Princeton, however, in the fast time of 8 minutes 51 8-10 seconds. He showed a return to form, after the Yale meet, in the intercollegiates, finishing Just a few feet out of the placing positions.

The international meet will take place July 8. EAGLE TRACKMEN NAMED TO MEET WILDCAT RIVALS In preperatlon for the final dual meet of the season the Boston College track team has been working out this TVeek, despite the examination now going on at the college for the annual meet with New Hampshire, at University Heights, Saturday. Yesterday, though the rain prevented most of the team from working out. Coach Jack Ryder named the members of the team who will make the trip. The Eagle coach is massing all his strength together for this meet, since win will give the Eagle an even b-ek in duat meets this season.

This meet will mark the final col' DAVE MISHEJ. Boston Universitys assistant football coaches next Fall will be Dave Mishel, one time "ir6n man player at Brown, Roger "Moose" Washburn, freshman coach the past five years at Boston University and Daniel Harrington of Newton, one of the greatest lineman ever to represent the Pioneers. The announcement was made yesterday by Dr John M. Harmon, director of athletics at Boston University and head coach of varsity football, baseball and basket ball. Mishel, Washburn and Harrington succeed John McManmon, ex-Notre Dame lineman, and Tony Colucci, ex-Holy Cross end, who assisted Myles Lane last year.

1 Mishel Star at Brown Mishel probably the most widely known of the assistants, coached the Brown backfield under Tuss" Mc-Laughry for three years after he was graduated in 1927 and then spent two years playing professional football. He was with the Providence Steamrollers one year and the Cleveland Indians two years. The old Brown star is a Lynn product. He was graduated from Lynn Classical and while there starred in football, basket ball, baseball and track. When he was graduated he matriculated at Brown, but because of outside work was unable to participate in any sport but football.

It was his last year that he played in the iron man" backfield of Lawrence, Cornsweet and Randall. Last Fall Mishel was appointed to the physical education staff and was placed in charge of intramurals under the direction of Prof Charles D. Giauque. Roger Washburn, an assistant professor in the vocational department of Boston University College of Business Administration has been freshman coach for the past five years. STUDENT PETITION TO SAVE WACHTER 93 Harvard Men Wish Him Retained as Coach With th name of'Rufus Bond added to the list of involuntarily retired coaches at Harvard in line with the H.

A. A. economy program just announced, considerable student and alumni protest has been organized, at Harvard against the retirement of Edward Wachter, already dropped as basket-tall coach, after 13 years of service, from his other position as sculling coach. The other coaches who have been let go are Victor Kennard, kicking coach in football, and Arthur Sampson, football backfield coach. To have Wachter retained as sculling coach, 93 students and alumni have 6igned a petition addressed to William J.

Bingham, which was printed in yesterdays Harvard Crimson. The Crimson responded to a request by Edward H. Hickey, 33, one of the class officers, to publish the petition. The petition follows: "We, the undersigned -members of the Weld Boat Club, undergraduates, graduate students, and alumni of Harvard University, respectfully request you to consider the following facts: 1. That Edward A.

Wachter" has given 12 or more years of faithful and effective service to the development of sculling in the university. "2. That under the very able instruction and coaching of Edward Wachter sculling has enjoyed an immense popularity among our students, and that there are today as many as 300 men rowing from the Weld Boat house in a single day. "3. That the athletics for all policy, which you have so splendidly advanced at Harvard, required for sculling the same high quality of coaching as you have provided for By Bob Zuppke rite'' 'i'' trm, -1 :1 IwA mA 'A ROGER WASHBURN A fa A DANIEL O.

HARRINGTON He was lineman and a teammate ef Mickey Cochrane, major league baseball catcher, in 1921. Washburn captained thateyear the eleven which won seven out of nine games. Harrington a Senior Harrington who will be giadualed June 12 is probably one of the greatest linenian ever to represent Boston University. At Newton High School, he was an all-scholastic lineman and goal tender on the hockey team. He played the same positions on the freshman1 football and hockey teams and continued on the varsity.

As a varsity player, Harrington I work was consistently commended by both coaches and spectators. Last year, Myles Lane and John McMaa-, mon, Boston University coaches, announced to the press that they believed 1 Harrington rould make a regular guard position at either of their own colleges, Dartmouth and Notre Dame, respectively. Harrington received the highest hon or open to a member of the senior clast at B. U. College of Business Administration this year when he was named president of the graduating class.

His. advancement from college studies td the varsity coaching staff is the first in the history of Boston University, other minor and less popular sport, at fencing, boxing, and wrestling. "4. That it would be difficult, almost impossible, to procure for the position of sculling coach a gentleman whose attributes of character, skill as sculler, and effectiveness as a teacher and coach of the sport recommend him so hightly as those qualities recommend Ed vard Wachter. i "Therfore, we petition you, because of his long years of faithful service, his unusual qualifications both as an athlete and as a man, because of th popularity and extent of sculling it Harvard and the need of the sport for thoroughly competent coaching, to reappoint Edward A.

Wachter as coach of sculling at Harvard." Ihe petitioners committee includes Thomas C. T. Buckley, 32, runner-up in the university sculling championship and a member of Harvards Hen-ley crew in 1931; Paul C. Reardon, 32. university scullmg champion; Stanlev D.

Peirce, 33; Bremton Creelman, 35; Edward M. Rowe. 27, and Bruce W. Hislop, 31, secretary. It is understood that Wachter, who has coached at Harvard for 13 years, will be with-out employment next year, unless he i3 reappointed as coach of sculling.

The Harvard Crimson, editorially, while it did not argue with the need of II. A. A. economy, questioned that the dropping of Wachter was the beet way to secure it. The Crimson state that it feels that "the sincerity of tue petition, the success which has attended the effort to get it signed, indicate that perhaps this is not th best way to cut the budget.

It appears that, if possible, he (Wachter) should be retained. If his retention merely in the capacity of sculling cdach is not an agreeable arrange ment, then a genuine effort should be made to find some position in the athletic department supplementary te sculling. The abilities and the personality and the long experience of th man warrant this effort being made." Officials of the Harvard Athletic Association stated last night that "they had no comment to make."

Big Bill Tilden thinks the United States will he beaten again in the battle for the Davis Cup but, he hastened, to add today, not because it develops the chairpian of the American Davis Cup Committee, Bernon S. Prentice, declined with thanks an offer to have the ex-world champion and his professional partner. Brace Barnes, work- outiwith the American team In Paris.

"We appreciated Tildens offer, especially because of his Enowledge cf conditions and his experience abroad, said Prentice, but I pointed out to him that we would have two extra players, in addition to the members of the Davis Cup team, for whatever light workouts we need. Big Bill will be welcome at our camp, any time, but we will not do any heavy work, before either the iDter-zone or challenge round matches, and there would be no need of using Tilden and Barnes." Offered His Services Tilden was reluctant to discuss this development but admitted he had volunteered the services of himself and Barnes, without expense to the American Davis Cup for practice purposes. The American professionals sail June 8 for a European tour. Under the circumstances I was sur- TECH'S SPRINT STAR DENIED A RECORD C.A, A.

C. A. A. A. championships and Richard Bell, New Englands champion sprinter, deprived of the honor of equaling the world mark in the 70-yard dash is a question causing much discussion among track followers.

News was yesterday that the executive committee of the I. C. A. A. A.

A. has refused to recognize his time of seven seconds, made March 4 at the title meet. Called last night at his house, Bell said that he knew nothing of the action of the executive committee and that it "is news to me." Bell admitted that his time in the event was fast and said that he felt he had never run better in his life. Coach Oscar Hedlund last night had no comment to make on the reported action of the executive committee, which took this step Thursday after Gustavus Towne Kirby, secretary of the I. C.

A. A. A. argued that "sanity, judgment and common sense dictated that Bells record be made 7.1 seconds, a tenth of a second above the worlds record. Bell is now credited with 7.1 secorfds.

All during the indoor season, Bell, to Come Trails With Cochet When it comes to challenge round I look for Henri Cochet to win both his singles matches for France, thereby leaving it up to Jean Borotra to win one of his two assignments. I feel safe in saying both will be at the top of their game for the big test and that no element of strategy will be overlooked to help them win. "Obviously the failure of the Boro-tra-Brugnon doubles combination, because of age, has upset some of the French plans, but Cochet can step in to take part in the doubles, too, if the defenders decide to concentrate on winning this point. Vines Is our only real hope, for he has proved he is the rare type of player who can win even when he is having a bad day. But he must win two singles matches for the United States to have a real chance in the challenge round.

A. A. A. meet five watches were used in timing the final of the dash. After the 70-yard dash, three of the watches showed Bell to have covered the distance in 7 seconds flat, one indicated 7.1, and one 7.2.

The Kirby, automatic timer, first used officially in the Olympics last Summer, was also used at the meet, and is supposed to have given a time of 7.1, though no official word on this last phase of the question has been obtained.
