Louis-Baer Fight
Is Sixth Largest
In Drawing Power
NEW YORK —(AP) — The
Louis-Bear fight stood sixth today
on the all-time list in gross gate
receipts, with $932,944 contributed
by 84,831 fans. 5
The total attendance, including
complimentary ticket holders, po
lice, firemen and employes, ap
proximated 92,000, according to
Promoter Mike Jacobs.
Net receipts were $805,725, after
the deduction of taxes. Ten per
cent of $80,572 goes to the milk
fund. The fighters split 60 per
cent of the balance, with each
share amounting to $217,576, the
biggest either, Baer or Louis ever
has recevied.
The ‘“gate” was more than $250,-
000 short of capacity figures and
SIOO,OOO below the previous non
championship record of $1,083,530
set by the Dempsey-Sharkey fight
here in 1927.
Jacohs explained that his un
willingness to advertise a ticket
sale at the stadium last night con
‘tributed to the failure to attract
more cash customers. He didn’t
sound disappointed. His own share
of the profits, for the 20th Cen
tury Sporting Club, exceeded S2OO,
000. 4
Californian managed another smilel
and with the instinct of the great
showman that he has always been.l
waved to the crowd that was on
its feet, yelling for the *“kill.” |
It was a characteristic Baer
gesture, a magnificient touch frpm'
a warrior who knew the end was
coming. Eyes bleary, Baer stag
gered to his feet at the count of !
nine,
He met another withering blast
backed into the ropes, then swayed
and toppled again. He wag saved
this time by the bell, at the count‘
of four.
Frantically Jack Dempsey andl
other handlers told . the battered |
former champion to “keep punch
ing,” but the old fire was gone.
Max knew it and so did every
one else.
Louis, still in no great hurry,
methodically stalked his man, shift
ing his crushing left hooks to the
body, blows that wiped the last}
vestiges of a grin from' Baer's
bruised, bleeding face. .
_Once Max flicked a back-handed
blow to _the quber’s face. The
referee admonished him but it was
unimportant.
Soon Louis swept in again,
smashing two lefts to the head,
then a right that put Baer down
for the last time. Max’s eyes blink
ed. He was on one knee, swaying
a bit. He didn’'t hear the count
and he didn't seem to care. l
He was still .swaying when Re- |
feree Arthur Donovan swung hisj
arm down for the tenth time. Baer
wag “out” for the first time in his
career, in every sense of the word.
There was little or no doubt
;about the outcome from the first
round, when Louis drew first blood
with sharp left' hooks to the noael
and mouth, then backed Baer into
a neutral corner and gave him a’
two-handed lashing that had the
crowd wild. v
’ All Baer did was to demonstrate
lhe could still “take it” and grin.
He took plenty, he kept grinning
and when the béll rang he squar
ed his shoulders, patted Louis
patronizingly on the back and
' stalked to his corner.
l Only twice did the former cham
pion flash the sort of punching
Ifury that battered down Schmeling
and Primo Carnera. Midway inl
' the first round, after being stung
by the Bomber’'s sharpshooting,'
Max let fly with both hands. Hel
|landed hard to the head but yielded
| quickly to the Negro's counter |
| blast. |
| In the closing moments of the|
lsecond round Baer let loose hisi
' most spectacular attack. Rushing
tLouis to the ropes, Max flailed
'away lustily. He jolted Joe with!
another looping. right. |
l The bell rang but Baer didn’t
| hear it. He punched furiously,!
| trying desperately to land a deci
isive blow. He did deliver his hard-i
est wallops before the referee
| could stop the overtime slugfest,
| but Louis trotted to his corner un-‘
hurt. |
All told, Baer didn’t land a halt;
dozen solid blows. His announce
ment afterward that he is through
'with the ring came as no shock
to those who witnessed the failure
‘of his attempted comeback.
{ For supreme nonchalance, how
]ever, Baer's career contains noth
llng to equal the latest achievement
| of Louis.
’ The Negro not only conceded ail
| of Baer's requests for special gloves
! more hand bandages and tape, but
!capped the climax by marrying his
| Chicago sweéetheart, Marva Trotter,
| scarcely two hours before going
to the stadium to face the greatest
}crowd that has ever seen a sports
| event in New York.
£ Receipts fell below expectations
of another million-dollar gate, after
| a lapse of eight years, but the gross
|total of $932,944, collected from 84.-
| 831 cash customers, marked a re
| markable fistic comeback as well

Regulars Fail ‘to Perform
As Expected by Coach
Hollis Yesterday
By JACK REID
A hard working second team
showed the first stringers how
football is supposed to be played
on numerous Dpiayss as Athens
High school’s gridiron squad went
through a long scrimmage yester
day afternoon in preparation of
¥riday's opening battle in Elberton.
~ True, the regulars did have 1
small edge in the skirmish, but it
was that battling second-"wiring
eleven that deserves credit for
;‘the better showing.
| The scrubs presened a “stone
- wall” defense on many occasions,
’and several times set members of
the much praised varsity backfield
!ba/ck minus a yard or so. Only
| Rudy Guest, the veteran half
}back, was able to boast o @&
steady performance on the first
aggregation.
Guest yesterday was the same
power-driving halfback that he
was last year, and was easily the
cutstanding player on the field.
Dave Paddock also had several
- good runs to his credit.
In addition to playing a fine
bran of defensive ball, the second
string had the honor of completing
one of the best passes of the
practice session.
Harold Tiller, halfback, drew a
word of praise from Coach Hollis
when he faded back and cut loosc
a leng looping toss to James Bail v
for about the longest gain of the
afternoon. '
Practically all members of the
scrub line flashed fine form at
some point during the workout,
and the performance of the for
ward wall guite acceptable.
A lighter scrimmage is one the
slate for this afternoon, with the
usual type of Thursday drill
scheduled for tomorrow.
Elberton promises to be one of
the strongest opening lay oppc
nents ever faced by a Maroon
team, and Coach Hollis is taking
the contest just as serious as
thoigh it were a mid-season scrab.
The meeting of Tenth District
officials will be held as scheduled
tonight in the high school build
ing at 8:30 o'clock, and several
outstanding speakers are expected
to talk. .
The ‘ object of this gathering .s
to obtain better officiating at all
Tenth District basketbail and foot
ball games. Athens High will be
represented by Howell Hollis,
Clayton Bowers, and Sam Gard
ner.
Baer Through, Joe
Louis On His Way to
Top of Fight Game
NEW YORK — (#) . Joe Louis
and Max Baer set off along differ
ent paths today, one to climb higher
toward the fistic heights, the other
to find rest. far from the glaring
lights of a ring.
Louig -in his dressing room last
night after knocking out Baer laid
plans for future conquests with his
fists.
Baer said he was through, that
he wasn't cut out to be a fighter
anyway and that he would retire
to the western plains to raise cat
tle.
. Although severely battered, the
iCalifornian still grinned after he
had reached his dressing room, lit
a cigarette and ordered a Dbottle
of beer. Kven as he had taken
Louis' blasts in the ring, he took
the humiliation of defeat with good
nature. He really enjoyed the post
fight festivities.
His left eye was bruised, the
cheekbone on* the same side was
puffed a little, and his right hand
thumb was swollen.
“Louig is a great fighter,” he said.
He's not the best but he's young
and probably will go a long way.
1 hope so and wish him luck.”
In the other dressing room, Louis
wag as phlegmatic and passive as
ever. He had become a bridegroom
a few hours before he stepped into
the ring. »
Waiting for him -at home was
his bride. Like Louts, she shun
ned ostentation. She had sat 25
rows back at the fight, and she had
gone home on a street car, the ride
costing her a nickel of nearly $200,-
000 her spouse was to bring home
Joe wag impressed chiefly with
the durability of the Baer chin.
~ “Whew, but that Max Baer has
one tough chin. I mean he’s got
one tough chin,” he said.
Asked if he wanted to meet
Schmeling next, he said:
“Okay by me if beating him
means Braddock.” ;

Daffy Dean Slated to Go
On Mound Today For
St. Louis Team
BY ANDY CLARKE
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
The Dean brothers have found a
task that measures up respectably
to Dizzy's estimate of their capa
bilities.
With plenty of rest for their
pitching arms, they will be thrown
into the path of the oncoming Cubs,
sweeping along on g\e crest of 18
straight victories. aul faced the
first assignment today, with four
days of rest, and Dizzy probably
will take up the task tomorrow
with the same amount of leisure
behind him.
The Cards face a tough task, for
they must sweep their five game
series with the Cubg to haul in the
pennant and it will take four to
tie. The Cards have won 12 and
lost five to Chicago this season
but that was before the Cubg soar
ed into the lead by three full
games,
The Cards showed they hadn’t
burned all their power yesterday
when they came back from the
humiliating 12-0 defeat of the day
before to belt the Pirates 11-2.
‘Wild Bill Hallahan held the op
position in check with three hits
while hig mates collected 11 hits,‘
including homers by Jim Coiling
and Leo Rurocher.
. The disillusioned Giants took
both games of a doubleheader from
the Phillies, 6-0 and 7-6. Al Smith
pitched tight ball for the Giants
in the first, but seven errors by the
Phillies contributed to the second
victory. Mel Ott hit his 31st homer
of the geason in the first game.
The Brooklyn Dodgers pushed the
Braves a little deeper into the cel
lar by taking both ends of their
double bill 5-3 and 6-5. The second
game went 11 innings.
The New York Yankees defeated
Washington 14-6, pounding Bump
Hadley and Olin Rogers for 16
hits.
The Cleveland Indians collected
15 hits to defeat the Detroit Tigers
14-7. 'The Tigers, with the pennant
in their belts, allowed the Indians
to have what little satisfaction they
got from the victory. y
Three rookie pichers were throws
ing balls all over the lot as the
Red Sox downed the Athletics
twice, 8-2 and 6-5. Connie Mack
ordered in his rookies, who hand
ed out 15 passes. A
The Bowns took both games in
a double-header with the White
Sox, 3-0 and 6-3. Irving Burns hit
a pair of homers, one in each
game.
Tarpley Is Beaten
By Leazr in Battle
Here Tuesday Night
Larry Leazr, of Gary, Indiana
won an eight rcund decision over
Pete Traplay last night at Franks
arena, in a, fight that was slow at
times, but which also brought out
some very good boxing at other
times.
Leazr, said to have gone eight
rounds with Tony Canzoneri, for
mer world's lightweight champion,
was not so much better thap
Tarpley, but his experience stood
him in good stead several times,
when the Righ Shoals boy staged
one of his rallies.
In the seémi-final fight of the
evening, Battling Hutchinson and
Kid Allman put on a humorous
show, with Allman getting the de
cision. The fight was not so good,
as far as boxing ability was con
cerned, but the fans really enjoy
«d the show they put on.
Slugger White pounded out a
decision 'over Kid Refus in an
eight round fight that was plenty
good, and Sam Marson, Elberton,
fought to a draw with Young Slug
ger White in another colored bout.
In the opener of the evening, .John

Max Baer Was Beaten Before Going
Into Ring Last Night, Says Moreno
(EDITOR'S NOTE: - Dr. J.
L. MORENO, mental expert
who studffed Max Baer and
* Joe Louis in their training
camps, gives in the following
article his analysis of the
fight.) :
By J. L. MORENO, M. D.
(Copyright, 1935, The associated
Press)
NEW YORK —(AP) — A psy
chological knockout °~ beat Max
Baer as much as Joe Louis mighty
punch. ;
This psychological knockout be
gan in the dressing room five
minutes before the fight. Baer,
Jack Dempsey and Billy McCar
ney were alone in the shower
room.
| “Max,” said McGarney, ‘go in
there fighting at the gong. Don’t
box that fellow or he -will murder
kyou .’
. “Yes,” cut in Dempsey, “There
will be no boxing.”
\ “T'll go in fighting,” Baer prom
ised. By Xl
- Which is exactly opposite ty
‘which he did do.
What happened to Baer in the
‘dressing Tobh, the psychological
knockout there, was the climax of
training camp events.
" At camp there was always a gap
between him and hig trainers.
He did not succeed well in taking
advice. He' read avidly everyth. u
about Louis, about his own condi
ticning, asked everyone how he
looked to them.
In phantasy he was§ brooding
He visualized himself and his op
ponent in detail. if he could have
talked freely with someone, it
might have helped.: But he posed
as a superman, tried to fool “im
self and everyone. Surrounded by
friends, he was in fact a solitaire.
His body became stronger but
'his mind became more desperate
as the fight neared. Seeking a last
straw, he asked Dempsey to be lis
second .
But when he had Dempsey in the
dressing room, nothing happered
to change the fact that Max Baer
in his mysterious self was still
alone. He listened but could not
absorb Dempsey's suggestions.
When he entered the ring there
wre two meén fighting against him.
One was the real Louis, peering
at him. The other was the ghost
of Louis, which his imagination
had built up before the fight.

did not even seem to try once the
proper attack. :
In his corner, just before the
fight, you saw Baer, the famous
showman, looking away from the
public, staring down at the can
vas, He wasn't himsgelf, He wasnt
present. The real Baer was far
away.
He went out toxing, holding back
his attack, subconsciously proba
bly holding back for the calamity
his mind had figured out.
It was not just stage fright, it
was not the “quitting” that
some of the spectators murmured
about. It was a state of mind
built up by things over which
Baer had little control, which be
came too real for him to overcome.
Louis showed 'some surprises.
He did not fight by instinct alone
—he was thinking. He was not the
automation in the hands of his
trainer which the fans had been
told to expect.
He was an independent Louis, or
more so than we had believed,

the moment,
