The extension gives Jacobs ex- clusive promotion rlghts to the negro‘s services for the next five years. A clause in the agreement, which was signed before last night's bout, provides for as many 8-5 10111” fishis a year, if adequate competition is available.

The champion expressed willing- ness to fight Schmeling "anytime. anywyhere that Mistah Jacobs says".

Jacobs refused to concede that Schmelingb pending fight with Tommy Farr, the British Empire champion. in London, would upset his hopes of bringing the German back to the United States to fight Louis.
