Matchmaker Issues

A Statement

New York. "Max Baer's next champion- ship opponent will be the man the public accepts as the most worthy contender for

the heavyweight title, not the man the champion, or his manager, or the promotor might happen to favour.'

So said Mr. James Joy Johnston, matchmaker at Madison Square Garden. He added that "whether It ia Lasky, Hamas, Selimeling or Carnera, he will have to prove his right to a shot at the title."

Mr. Johnston's statement, says the New York Sun, was made in reply tu criticism by Max Baor's manager of the methods being used to determine who opponent shall be,

Max's next

"Hamas, according to a state ment by Ancil Hoffman (Baer's manager) has defeated Lasky and Schmeling” said Johnston. "But, no matter what my opin- ion may be in the malter, or that of Messrs. Hoffman and Baer, Bemas did not defeat Lasky. He merely secured a decision over the Minneapolis heavyweight.
