Schmeling-Sharkey Championship Fight Is Not Kicking Up a Lot of Interest FOND OF MING Max Would Prefer to Be in Has Money, but Covets Title. BY SPARROW McGANN. NEW YORK, June Schmeling is doing his best to keep up the pretense that he feels at home in this country, while preparing for his titular scrap late this month with Jack Sharkey. The truth of the matter is that Max does not like long waits between fights and would much prefer to be in Germany among his own people. Long drills and waits annoy him, and If he had his own way he would prefer to step off a boat and have it over with in just about 10 days.

Schmeling knows his business and secs to it that he gets enough exercise to keep in shape. The championship means money to him and as there is no other business he knows that would pay him in proportion, he is practical enough to make the most of his opportunities. The same goes for Sharkey. Jack has been through the mill. He has been up and down and is rather tired of it all.

He has plenty of money saved and could retire any time But Jack wants to see his name do in fistic history as a world champion. That is the only reason for his going through the training grind at Orangeburg, N. Y. THERE is no exaggerating the paucity of interest in the SharkeySchmeling tilt. A stroll through the highways and byways where smart followers of the game make their headquarters will clear up any doubt about that The wise ones point out that the match comes at a poor time and, since the terms of the contract have not been divulged, the fans are wary of another trick ending.

Fight fans have long memories. Two years ago more than $800,000 was passed In for pasteboards to witness one of the most amazing finishes to a heavyweight championship match ever recorded. Schmeling. hit low by Sharkey, won the title sitting on the received more than $100,000 for that exhibition. One can still hear an echo of the howls of derision when it was learned that a clause was written into the contracts stipulating that the principals were to be paid in full in the event of a foul.

THERE is no doubt that Sharkey and Schmeling now realize theyj are on the spot. They will have to produce or suffer the consequences. Sharkey is getting but 10 per cent of i the gate and he now wishes he hadn't been so hasty in offering to fight Schmeling for training expenses. The manager of the champion took Jack at his word and when it came time to sign he reminded the Boston gob of his beast. The promoters of the brawl owe it to the public to make a clean breast of the terms of the contract and guarantee the fans they will see a satisfactory fight.

And if both principals would agree to turn all the money over to the worthy charity under whose' auspices the bout is being staged, the fans would go for it like the second meeting between Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey.

Golf Analyzed JOE GLASSThe golf swing is somewhat similar to the turn of a wheel. It starts back and forward from the left shoulder point.

The left shoulder is thus the axis of the swing. However, there is another wheeling movement in the process of stroking the ball. In this both shoulders turn on a plane which comes close to being at right angles to the swing of the arms. The head is the center, or axis, of this second turning movement, which really has more to do with Body turns like wheel IN SWlN6 WITH HEAD AS AJdS. ANCHORING SWING maintaining or injuring balance than has the first.

Its location must, therefore, be definitely fixed. To achieve this, anchor the head by keeping the eye on the ball from the moment of address until after it has been sent on Its journey.

Fullam is favored over Kirkwood, albeit the latter, while only 20, is a veteran of 85 pro fights and has had considerably more experience than Fullam. Eut few better boxers have appeared in these parts than the exCardmal star. TNLESS Kirkwood comes into FulvJ lam. the palm for action is likely to be handed to Nick Antonelli and A1 Martin, featherweights, who clash in the other 10-rounder.

A DEADLY accurate left hand that continually pecked away at the usually elusive head of Antol Kocsis, Hungarian bantamweight, won for Benny Schwartz, veteran Baltimorean, a sweet victory at Arena last hight and a future shot at Emil Pladner at Port Washington. Schwartz was given five of the eight rounds, with two even and the other to Koscis. The Hungarian rushed Schwarts from the start, but Benny's lightning left ever was in the speedy Hungarian's face. In the second round Schwartz opened a wide gash over left eye and the claret, in his eyes during the rest of the bout, hampered Jimmie Bronson's protege no little. Several times Schwartz all but had Kocsis cn the floor.

Kocsis' best rounds were the fifth, seventh and eighth. Cowboy Owen Phelps decisively trounced Billy Strickler in the semiwind-up, Strickler taking a terrific mauling, but remaining on his feet throughout. Phelps' long uppercuts had Strickler groggy on two occasions. Roddy Davis was too much for Donald First in one of the four-rounders, getting a unanimous decision, while Whitey Saylor was awarded a technical kayo over Oscar Voight in the other prelim. The third scheduled eightrounder.

PRIME BURGOO KING. CHICAGO, June 1 King, R. Bradley's winner of the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness. is expected at Washington Park this week to prepare for the $50,000 added American Derby. STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE THAT will it take to A That is the main topic of conversation among quite a group of young amateurs and professionals who hope to qualify for the national open golf championship in the 36-hole sectional test next Monday at Congressional.

Not that any individual among them is worried about qualification, for they all profess to be able to score a pair of 76s over that par 72 course. And a brace of 76s, they feel, will be good enough to get in. Many of them are practicing at Congressional this week in advance of the sectional round, for the national open championship is the goal and dream of hundreds of young pros throughout the land. With the quick jump of Sarazen and Burke into Nation-wide prominence by their victories in the open before them, there isn't a young pro who does not hope he will strike a streak of invincible golf and win the open. But first they must get by the sectional qualification tests.

WASHINGTON has a group of about 25 golfers in the tourney next Monday. Out of the entire entry of 66 players, there will be only eight places, or about one place to each eight starters. It is a foregone conclusion that most of the amateurs will not qualify In the first place, most of them fee that if by qualifying they were to deprive a pro of a place, they would rather withdraw. And in the second place, with only one or two exceptions, the amateurs are not as good as the pros. So the pros will have it their way in that 36-hole test next Monday for the right to enter the national 'open at Fresh Meadow- three weeks hence.

And is Congressional in fine condition for this, its first big test in several years0 Brothers, it is better than it ever has been. In its 10 years of existence Congressional never has been in better condition. A shower or two before Monday and it will be perfect. Just now it is a little fast, when such holes as the eighth, which is a par 5. can be reached with a drive and a mashie.

and such holes as the another par be reached with a drive and a spoon. But along the other parts of the route there is plenty of trouble. We played it yesterday witlv Gene Larkin of Chevy Chase and Archie Clark and Charlie Penna of Congressional. Larkin shot a 71, Clark shot a 72 and Penna. despite a bad start, got a 76.

All of them hope to duplicate that round next Monday, and all of them feel that if they do they will be in with something to spare. LE ROY EAKIN is the winner of the May match play competition among senior golfers of the Chevy Chase Hickory Shafted Golf Clubs On Way Back, Officials Assert BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. Hickory-shafted golf clubs are coming back, according to an official of the Professional Golfers' Association. The P.

G. A will stress club making in its sectional schools, and the professional of the future must be an artist at the bench as well as a good instructor and keen player. One golf manufacturing concern already is turning out hickory-shafted irons in large quantities. Its product has an advantage over the old-fashioned wood shafts, in that the hickory is sheathed with a composition that is presumed to prevent the warping and splitting that cnce shortened the lives of clubs. This sheath also gives the clubs a very attractive appearance.

rTTRIS SPEAKER, the old gray eagle A of the outfield and one of the greatest batters ever in base ball, declares there is a distinct difference in the word "control-' as applied to modern and old-time pitchers. "A present-day pitcher who can get the ball over the plate between a batter's knees and shoulders is said to have related Speaker. "In the old days a pitcher with control was one who could pitch to a spot. George Foster of the Boston Red Sox was the best "spot" pitcher I ever saw. but Matthewson, Johnson and all of the great ones were able to put the ball about where they wished." Speaker also deplores the efforts of young pitchers to use a slow ball.

"Pitchers arrive at the slow-ball stage soon said the Texan. "Once their arms start to weaken they will naturally come by a slow ball. A young pitcher with good speed and a curve does not need a real slow ball, and it can get him Into a world of SECTIONAL qualifying rounds for the Professional Association championship will be played the last two weeks in July, according to Albert R.
