Philadelphia and could have faced Champion Max Baer by simply sitting on his ldstorted knuckles (Steve's knuckles) and doing absolutely nothing Challengers were eliminating themselves all over the lot in the early heartbeats of 1935 but Manager Charley Harvey didn't like Jimmy Johnston the Garden's coy Boy Bandit so he took Steve to Germany and fed him to Max Schmeling for 825-000 in cash Charles was going to show the Garden Der Max gave Steve a horrible betting and ended his career before it had really got started Then Jamee Braddock whipped Baer for the title and reliably informed experta

spectacular triumph was scored at the expense of Ray Impellillere and hia manager Harry Lenny Bob flattened tbe Imp In eeven rounds but Lenny haa supported the Imp for aix years and if you think

Yorker's best showing 1)b has won victories against foes with weaker names and stronger biceps in clubs rarely visited by the big time typewriter stumblers Pastor can hit hard enough to flatten any man he contacts solidly He is a driving fellow who moves forward with the first bell and lie won't quit until his knees no longer support him But this is the sort of foeman the young Negro encourages Ha likes a gladiator to bring the action right into his teeth for Joe knows Just what to do under these circumstances Ho counted punches ami there is no one who can do so more efficiently There may be flaws in the Louis chin but he is one of the great batsmen of all time and ha should have no fear of a man he can hit Thera is a rare mystery in that saddle-colored chin Joa can taka else ha wouldn't have lasted twelve round againat tbe smashing shots of tbe German Schmeling He la courageous or he would have quit before he was beaten down But there seems to be a Jittery nerve which turns Jo hack to the amateurs onee he la belted at the right angle He begins to flounder loses hia magnificent co-ordination and is a mark for anyone with a hand hitched to either arm a If I'astor can find this spot before Louis drops a business card he can win But Joe does not trifle with men he knows ran punch-sot since Schmeling He knew that Slmma carried sudden darkness in either band and he did the fellow's business in twenty-six seconds He knows that Pastor can hit and he ia certain to try for a quick knockout So la Tastor After another to become a tennia I professional la expected to cash in
