New York, June 24.
It is reported that Max Schmeling will sail for Germany on July 2.
Owing to the injury of two small bones of the spine necessitating the use of splint bandages which he will have to wear for three weeks, he will be taken to the steamer on a stretcher. Upon his arrival in Germany, Schmeling will immediately undergo further treatment.
According to Dr. Brennan, the surgeon who examined the German boxer at the clinic, Schmeling has suffered a fracture of two bones which connect the spine below the kidney with lumbar muscles, The treatment of a fracture of this kind is a complicated matter and will require a good deal of nursing. Schmelings general condition however gives no rise for anxiety. Reports appearing in American newspapers to the effect that Schmeling has been paralyzed by an injury to the spine are incorrect,—Trans-Ocean.
