Schmeling challenges Braddock title fight in race to match Louis
German heavyweight Max Schmeling arrived in New York and challenged James J. Braddock for the title as soon as Braddock can be lured into the ring. He urged a fight in Atlantic City or Madison Square Garden, said he would defend the title if he wins, and questioned the authority of the New York Athletic Commission over a 12 round exhibition with Joe Louis. Schmeling weighed 195 pounds and criticized the idea of a timed showcase as a true championship contest.

Landis Quiet On Feller Free Agent Question
New York dispatch reports Bob Feller a schoolboy pitching prodigy was deemed a player of good standing by Commissioner Landis. Cleveland officials had urged a full inquiry into Feller cases but the ruling preserves his status and delays any free agent action. Bob Feller’s father reportedly began leasing his Iowa farm and could have earned a fortune if his son had been declared a free agent.
