Must Have Oppon- ent By April 15th. ‘

(By J. Norman Lodge, Associated Press Staff Writer) (A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

NEW YORK, April 5—Boxing had its own disarmament confer- ence todayand, like many dis- armament confabs, much was‘ said but nothing was done.

The confesses, bigwigs of the promotorial world, were entertain- ed by former champion Jul; Dempsey with champion Max Baer present and Jim Braddock, who wants to be champion, openly challenging Beer to battle. -

Present were Anoii Hoffman, Beer's manager; Armand Vincent, who claims to represent a syndi-

the next heavyweight title bout for the King's Jubilee; James J. Johnston, Madison Square Garden promoter who has a lien on Beer's services until the middle of June, and Mike Jacobs who vows he has an agreement for Baer to fight in the Yankee Stadium Sept. 15. In the background, represented by mil Proxy was Walter Rothen- berg, German promoter.

$375,000 Offer

Vincent purportedly offered Hoffman $215,000 for the next bout to be‘ held in London; $50,000 upon signing articles-provided Hoff-

German promoter, with whom Hoffman has dickered, had s. $250,000 contract in the mail which jtassed Hoffman enroute east. Johnston; with a signed contract stipulating he must name the log- ical contender by April 15, offered nothing. Jacobs also remained mute.

With this verbal shadow-boxing 801113 on among the principals, Baler met Braddock. New York Athletic Commission's “logical con- tender" and on introduction was momentarily taken aback by Bradd k’s “never heard of you."

But axisnotthconetcbe caught tongue-tied for long.

"You'll never hear of anyone again after I bust you once," Baer countered.

Wants Three Bouts

Hoffman wants Baer to fight .tbree times this year and he says he isn't fussy about the opponents so long as the money is sufficient and is laid on the line in goodly quantity before the fight-but one stipulation is that he will not fight in Germany. _

"the Garden must name an op- ponent by April 15 and they then have 80 days to promote the fight," Hoffman said. “Until that time I'm saying nothing. The Garden's never done me any favors. Why should I say whether we'll fight Braddock?" ‘

Of one thing he was certain- therc'll be no extension of time. "If the Garden can't get it up I'll go some place else.” he said. Asked
