JOE UNBEATABLE,
BASQUE ASSERTS.
Never Knew What Hit Him,
Says Kayo Victim-Negro
"Saved" His Hands.
BY EDDIE BRIETZ,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, December IA
N They imported old Senor
" Pauline Uzcudun from San
\ Sebastian, Spain, to find out
Just how hard Joe Louis can hit.
And how the colored boy showed 'em!
He f1ddled around for three rounds
In Madison Square Garden last night,
then knocked the once redoubtable
Spaniard flatter than the celebrated
pancake with a paralyzing right that
drove one of Paulino's teeth through
his upper lip.
Herr Max Schmeling, sitting way
back in row G, felt the blow and
WINGED. The doughty Isidor Gasta-
naga must have heard it in Havana.
Charlie Retzlaff, with his ear glued
to the radio out in st. Paul, didn't
know whether it was furry of static
or what.
The startling Louis scored tech
nical knockout over Pauline after 2
minutes and 80 seconds of the fourth
round had elapsed. 1t was his twenty
second knockout in his 26 professional
fights.
Sports, society and theater notables
were in the crowd of almost 10000
that saw the bounding Basque intro
duced to the resin dust for the first
time in his IL years of campaigning.
The Basque had been in SO battles
with the good and the bad, but he
never had been toppled from his feet.
Didn't Know What Hit Him.
THE fight, although the outcome
was almost a foregone conclusion,
drew a gross gate of S128.394.75, the
Gardens largest in six years. 1t was
far short of the indoor record set by
Billy Petrolle and Jimmy McLarnin
in 1929.
After the fight, Pauline, who ad-
mitted he didn't know what hit him,
predicted the spectacular Louis would
polish off Schmeling with the same
celerity when they meet in the Yankee
Stadium next June
II fought both men," he said ct
should know. have been hit many
times, but never like tonight. I be-
leve nobody can lick that boy"
Pauline never has heard of Retzlaff,
but he dismissed Gastanaga with
contemptuous "bah!" Louis will meet
both.
Louis said it was one of his easiest
fights. He jabbed away with his left
until he found an opening, then
turned on the power and the show
was over.
The Negro was content to play ball
until the Basque got fresh in the third
and smashed solid right to Louis
body, his only good blow of the per-
formance. Louis didn't bat an eve.
but then and there Pauliao's number
was up.
In the next heat, the bomber jabbed
short left to the chin, followed with
the pulverizng right that cut the
Span1ardS lip and sent him crashing
to the floor on his back. Pauline went
down as if some one had knocked his
legs from under him with a wagon
tongue.

the room, the colonel's face remained fierce,
but as soon as the feet began to patter on the
stairs going down to the bar, the expression
of feroCity changed to one of dismay. Now it
was obvious that he had been merely playing
part. pretending to feel fierce and arrogant,
while he was really ashamed and timid. As a
matter of fact, it had taken him more than an
hour to muster up courage, before he could
persuade himself to enter the tavern and ask
for drink. He had no money to pay for it.
He was quite aware that he owed Louis five
pounds and it cut him to the quick to be
under obligations to a serving man. However!
A topers conscience is capable of astonishing
contradictions.
Before the outbreak of the world war the
colonel, so called had been a tutor at the
university, and known in Dublin as Jim
Tomlin. a serious, scholarly young man. AT
the out break of the war he joined the colors,
served with distinction. and rose to rank
entirely out of keeping with his position in
society. BY the termination of hostilities he
had become field marshal in his own estima-
ton and confirmed drunkard in the estim-
alton of everyone with whom he came in
contact
After the war, the university reengaged,
and then dispensed with his services owing
to his Incorporate habits. He began to write

He was now living entirely on his wits, ex-
cepting occasional help he received from his
family.
When Louis returned with the drink, the
colonel had again assumed his expression of
feroCity. The waiter stopped over the table,
and the colonel cried out:
Don't stand on my injured foot'
Louis saw that the left shoe was cut away
to make room for bandages that swathed the
foot.
What happened, sir?" he gasped with
look of horror. "Is it hurt?"
Seriously. I'm afraid said the colonel.
His face contorted, as if he were in agony.
ITS been three months now"
Louis watched him with open mouth. Then
he glanced furtively at the clock. 1t was
eighteen minutes past four.
"Nice tate of affairs he said to himself

"If it would interest you to know" said
the colonel, 'the history of my accident is

1T would interest me sure enough"
