Max Now Appreciates Luxury. NOT FOOLISH SPENDER Takes Pocketbook as Well As Fight Game Seriously; Encouraged by Dempsey. CHICAGO. July 6. UPr From a poor penniless wanderer, Max Schmeling is certain to earn a for.

tune with his fists in the The world's heavyweight champion knows what it means to sip life's dregs. Now he doubly appreciates his op portunity to sit in the lap of luxury. It was just a few years ago that Schmellngv was stranded in Muhl-heim. Germany, broke, ragged and hungry. For a few cents he could buy a bowl of thick soup.

Spoons, knives and forks were attached to the table by chains so that diners could not slip them Into their pock ets. When Max could gather 10 cents he lived in the lodging house where a flop' pn a crowded floor was his bed. A rope was strung the length of the room between two benches. The lodger rested his head upon the rope and slept until an at tendant of the "flop house" by the simple expedient of cutting the rope at dawn, awakened the sleepers by dumping their heads on the concrete floor. Spends Wisely.

Now Schmeling, with riches in his grasp sincerely appreciates his expensive clothes, automobiles, good food and all the rest that goes with it. While niggardly, Schmeling is thrifty and does not spend money foolishly. His ring earnings are wisely invested. He takes himself, his boxing and his pocket book soberly and seriously, as few boxers do, Schmeling is essen. tially a serious minded man, looking into the future.

"I have my mutter to care for back in the old country, and I must make a success of this boxing business," says Max. "I do not wish to harm anyone, hut this boxing is a profitable work, neinT" Schmeling keeps close account of money he spends, and knows where every cent goes. His manager. Joe Jacobs, accounts to him for all ei. penditures, necessary in a training camp, and for all earnings in exhibitions and fights.

They keep aq accurate account of their earnings and expenditures as Max does not intend to have any trouble with Vncle Sam's Income tax collector, Was Spar Partner, It was while be waa broke that Schmeling by mere chance, pulled on his first boxing glove. He was then in Muhlheim. and craving exercise, walked into the sport club Colonia, where he was invited to serve as a boxing partner, As a boxing partner. Max, then years old, knocked out bis opponent, who, en regaining consciousness, engaged him for bout with the middleweight champion of the club. Schmeling treated the champion to a knockout punch and began to wonder just how long men had been earning money at this easy work.

Then he started amateur boxing and won his first 12 fuhts by knockouts. He became a professional in 1924, and a few month later ran into Jack Dempsey, then heavyweight champion, who was then In Cologne, Germany, on a honeymoon, and earning expenses by appearing in exhibitions. He boxed one round with Dempsey, and that one round started him on to ring success, because Demqpey encouraged the sober-minded German youngster te go in for boxing in a big way.

HE'S GOOD AT PICKING 'ELI Knew AU the Time That Schmeling Would Stop Strib. MAX A GREAT FIGHTER Reminds Damon of Jeffries And Nelson in Their -Heydays. By DAMON KIN YON. Copyright, 1931, Universal Sarvtee, lae. NEW YORK, July Well eT Poctor Rvmyon looked pretty good on that one, eh.

what? Sea he: Schmeling will positively beat Striblins, and probably stop him. All of which came to pass ia Cleveland Friday night, to tha utter discombobulatlon ef all but a very few of us experts, then and there assembled, The or doctor told you that the pugilistic leopard does net change Its spots, and that Willi Striding would be snatching and grabbing, per Ions established custom, the moment he got stung. That also happened. (Why doe. tor, you must have second, or third, or maybe fourth sight Furthermore, the doctor told you that Schmeling would probably emerge from this, battle rocogixlaed as a great tighter, and are you not at this time reading your favor-.

He woodpulpa that the Black Uhlan is all that? You are. Indeed, along with apol ogies to Ilerr Max from those who had been remarking that he was a bum. In spades, and would probably be chased plumb across the state of Oh-ho-he by the fistic pride ef the Southland. Advantage of Situation. The trouble with a lot of the boys was that they gave too much con sideration to the fact that Schmeling was on the floor tn the moment of his victory, over Sharkey, forgetting that Schmeling's manager, Josephus Jacobs, was merely seizing advantage of a situation.

They dismissed entirely the fact that Schmeling had taken every, thing Sharkey had for three rounds, and seemed to be coming on when tie foul occurred, and they refused to give any thought whatever to the possibility that Schmeling might have got up and continued battling had it looked as if ha might be counted out recumbent, Now ft struck the old doctor that a chap who could stand up under the terrific bombardment that Schmeling took from Sharkey far three rounds and then shew a blaze of fighting such as Max displayed in the fourth heat against Sharkey, must haye plenty of stamina. Moreover, the old doctor eould net disregard tbe knockout of Johnny Risko by Schmeling, the shellacking that Max gave the nimble Joe Sekyra and the pummeling that the Black Uhlan administered to Paolina Uxcudun. The doctor muttered to himself: "This guy must have something." "As against these items and Incidents, the doctor had to consider that in his last two battles Young gtribling hadn't been able to dent the chin of Tuffy Griffiths, and just barely outscuffled Arturo De Kuh. That, moreover, every time Strib-ling had reached the door of opportunity he stumbled at the threshold, and that he had been fighting 10 long weary years, and was pugil)s-tically a old man, with the law of average running strong against him. So you see tha old doctor's formula is simple enough when it i explained.

German Can Fight. You take it from the doctor, this German can fight. The technicians pnay tell you that he Is crude and clumsy in spots, and that he isn't a fast thinker, hut YQU frtiqk to the doctor. The fellow can fight. He Is a throwback to the old-time long-distance gladiators.

I would say that he has something of James J. Jeffries in his fistic make-up. Old Jeff always got a royal American pasting in the early rounds of his battles, but when they settled down to the real fighting, it was then he would commence to show his stuff. Schmeling is just such a route runner. He "can take 'era tll the cow's come home, and he is punching harder after the tenth round than in the first.

He proved that with Pao-lino. He has proved it again with Stribling. Like Jeffries, and Battling Nelson and a lot of other great old-time fighters I could name, Schmeling wouldn't get te first baae in 10 rounds with a very clever fellow, but he Is manslaughter from then en. A mugg in the gymnasium, like Mickey Walker and Abe Attell and ether great fighters. Hen Max is a curly wolf in the ring.

He has Im. proved 60 per cent over his fight with Sharkey, and will undoubtedly improve a lot more. HOME RUN HITTERS By the rreaa, VUHTEBDAY.

i reality as wen as in name. Schmeling told the United today that he waa certain he cs defeat any of the current aspirami to the throne, and will welcome opportunity to oerenn nia hor. against all contenders. The Grm5 champion, stopping in New Tork for a brief visit before embarkin? Germany, gave his ratines aM opinion of rival heavyweights to the United News as follows: How He Rates Them. 1.

Jack Sharkey "A gwj and dangerous but he 6ws cot hit hard enough to beat me." 2. Primo Camera "FormMabi because of his size and punching ability but lacking in boxfcr skill and ability to take punlshmta necessary for a ehampion." 3. Young Stribling "A fioe fensive boxer and hard hitter, but he lacks the true champion's ability do his best work under pressure." 4. Tommy Loughran "The bt boxer of recent years, but no punch." 5. Mickey Walker "Has every-thing but the size.

A champion at his own weight but not a match fa front-rank heavies." 8. Vittorio Campolo "Strong and big, but slow," 7. Paulino Uzcudun "A endowed with wonderh! stamina. Past his prime." 8. Charley Retzlaff "The ns young prospect and, after he the necessary experience, my mos likely successor." Sails For Home Today.

Schmeling plans- to defend to title again in September, but said i "doesn't care" who is selected his opponent. The champion sail for Germany late Monday returning about August 1 or "rja-ever Joe Jacobs sends for me." Jacobs and Schmeling are scR uled for a conference tomorrow vni President W. P. Carey of Madiss Square Garden and Damon Runya. representing the New York M3 Fund, which will share in the motion of the September show Jacobs revealed that althongi is I Schmeling's contract with the Gar den calls for a bout with Phisj Carnera, there is a possibility that the winner of the Jack Sharker Mickey Walker match, scheduled it Brooklyn late this month, msy substituted for the Italian.

understand Carnera has not fulfilled some of the requirement his contract." said Jacobs. "There a a possibility that the Sharkey-XVali-er winner may be substituted. don't care, Tbe main thing that in terests us is to get the best opponent and the fellow that will draw tr most money." Suspended In Kew York. Jacobs said that the bout probah'y would be held either in Jersey Cny, Philadelphia or Chicago as Schmeling still is under suspension In York. We will 'make no attempt to k-cure recognition from the New Tart commission," said Jacobs.

"They cm go their way and we'll go ours. Th public knows who is the real cha-n-pion and the New York board v'l make itself ridiculous if it attempt to set up a pretender to the throt "We feel that Max was suspend unfairly and it Is up to the commission to make the first move toward reinstatement. Max is ready to defend the title against any man is the world and always has been. We preferred Stribling for the first defense because we thought his recon; entitled him to the pout."
