COAST FIGHTER
DISCOVERED BY
MANAGER
John Lewis Spotted
By Oscar Rhodes
AS Conner

On the night OF July IL and in
the ring In the Exposition Audi
forum out I'm San Francisco, a
young ebony tyro was scoring the
greatest achievement of his short
but brilliant career. John Henry
Lewis was accomplishing what
many OF his most ardent followers
were not willing to believe.
In this, his greatest opportunity,
young Lewis scored decisive
victory over Make Rosenbloom
light heavyweight champion in a
ten round non-title bout. Lewis
won by fighting the champion
even in the first rounds and then
coming on with furious attack
in the last two rounds TO win the
verdict OF the referee.
Wins Return Bout
And to prove that his victory
over the champion was no fluke,
Lewis, in return bout less than
two months later, defeated the
Harlem slap-stick artist again.
Lewis who Is 10 years of age and
lives in Prescott. Arizona. has
been lighting a couple of years.
He Is a student In the Prescott
high school and the first meeting
with RosenblOom was his nine
teenth.
This youngster. who holds The
California light heavy and heavy
weight crowns. has waded through
weller of fighters to attain his
position as crown head of the two
divisions and recognition as the
best fighter on the coast.
Probably what was Lewis mos

ence prior TO the meeting will

weight. last year. Lewis defeated
Scozza decisively in a ten round
bout In San Francisco TO score his
sixth straight win.
Other fighters who have felt the
sting of Lewis singing punches
arc Fred Lenhart. Jimmy Brad
dock and Tom Patrick. Lewis was
given a draw with Lenhart in the
first bout, but scored a technical
knockout in the first round of a
return bout.
Spotted by Local Man
Behind the success of this new
coast sensation can be seen the
guiding hand of one of the wise
men of the ring Oscar Rhodes,
former matchmaker for the old
Dunbar A. c.. here In Detroit, and
traveller.
Rhodes first saw Lewis I'm Phoe-
nix, Arizona. and Immediately spot
ted him as coming champion. He
took the youngster to San Fran
cisco and was behind him in all of
tho big fights except the non-title
bou! with RosenbIoom.
On arriving In Detroit last
spring Rhodes tried to interest
several local men In Lewis. telling
them that he was the best prospect
he had seen In all of his years OF
following the fight game.
Lewis, who uses short knife
like right hand punch. and is
good counter puncher. will be
given a title match with Make
Rosenbloom in New York some
time next month. His clever box
ing ability coupled with his punch
ing power makes him dangerous
opponent.

MAY TRY TO BREAK
MRS. ELK|NS' WILL
GrandchiId's Guardian Claims
Ex-senator Influenced
His Mother.

The possibility that an attempt may be
made to break the will of Mrs. Halle
Davis Elkins, wife of the late Senator
from West Virginia, was foreseen today
when it was learned that the guardian
of her grandchild has asserted the will
was the result of undue influence prac-
ticed upon Mrs. Elkins by her son,
Davis Elkins, also former Senator and
principal beneficiary under the testa-
ment. The estate is valued at more
than $1,000,000.
In a report filed in District Supreme
Court, Mrs. Mary Kenna Elkins, guard
ian ad item for Stephen B. Elkins, Sd,
the grandchild, said it was her opinion
that Mrs. Elkins was mot of sufficient
mental capacity to understand and ap-
preciate the extent of her estate and
the objects of her bounty or make a
valid deed or contract" The report
also said the will was "the result of un-
due influence practiced upon her by
Davis Elkins," and expressed the opin-
ion that caveat should be filed on be-
half of the infant grandchild."
IF this will is allowed to stand" the
report of the guardian ad litem con-
tinued, "it will deprive the grand child
of one-third of the estate to which he
is entitled, and it is to his best interest

He proposed that it be the principal
feature of the Memorial day service
and be official in character, announc-
ing that he would attend.
Many churches of many faiths are
holding memorial services, unofficial in
character. tomorrow, Palm Sunday.
The President feels that in view of the
fact that many of the Akron dead have
not been found, that it is now too early
to hold an official memorial service, and
so has designated the Arlington service
as the official national mourning for
those who died in the airship disaster
