Newspaper dispatch (quoted portions of story) from THE SHELDON MAIL (Sheldon, Iowa) SEPTEMBER 23, 1936 (by Earl Jinkinson)


....Max Baer, the clowning ex-heavyweight champion amused the large crowd by playfully toying with Andy Miller of Sioux City....As was expected the Sioux City lad was no match for the "Livermore Larruper"....someone asked him to hit Miller and Max replied "do you want me to committ murder?"....The bout was more of a clowning exhibition on the part of Max but the bout was well received by the large crowd. It seems to this correspondant that even after the Louis beating, which Max explained was due to his injured hands, and one look at his hands at this date is sufficient evidence to prove his contention, that Max is still a first class heavyweight contender....
