THE SPORTLIGHT
Louis, With Every Fistic Asset, Strikes
Public Fancy-Sure to Get Title Chance.
BY GRANTLAND RICE

"a 70 ONE is around today ask
M ing this question, Can Joe
Louis i2ht?'
4 One might Just as we'll be
asking Can a mocking-bi sing?
Can a fish swim? Can a kangaroo
Jump"
No one can say at this momert just
how great a fighter Louis is. AS far
as one can see, he has everything a
great fighter needs. He can box and
punch with either hand-he is faster
than chained lightning and as cold
as Winter ice. Beyond that, he has
ring craft and cunning. with all the
cruelty that a true killer carries In
action.
For all that, Primo Carnera
was not any measuring stone
for greatness.
The mammoth Italian was dead
game, but he was never good fighter
and he had no offense by which one
could Judge the greatness Of an op-
pouent. For example, Max Baer
looked TO be q far better fighter
against Camera than against Jim
Bra6dock.
What about the pugilistic future Of
the brown blizzard from Detroit? Will
he be side-tracked as Harry Wills was
more than once? There snt a
chance.
Louis has grlpped the fancy of
the sporting public toe stoutly to be
cast aside. To draw the color line
in his case, to keep him away
from his shot at the main title, would
be to kill of all interest in the heavy
weight division.
The general opinion now Is
that Louis is the greatest heavy
weight of his day.
There is nothing against his
record outside Of the ring to
call for any criticism.
He has been carefully handled and
this care won't be relaxed. Those
handling Louis have pointed him for
the big title and they will keep him
on the path. Braddock, Baer and
Schmeling are still in the road, but
Louis today Is the big card OF the
fighting game.
No Negro fighter has been given a
shot at the heavyweight crown since

Huh" said Joseph.
The Louis boys plans for the future
are just shade vague. In Septem-
Der, to be sure. he will have the Baer

ised it to the public, and Max and
Joseph likely are to vote the same

mys cooking. One thing he'll begin
to do right away is see life. AS step
in this direction he plans to make
a trip this week or next to Atlantic
City, where life can be obtained in the
raw.
Joe doesn't believe you can
find life in New York City. He
is unimpressed by its tall build
ings and beautiful smokestacks.
AS for the $45,O00 he accumulated
by pounding Carnera to dull smudge,
Joe doesn't know exactly how he's
going to spend it. Some of the lovely
cash will be converted into suitable
flannel, gaberdine and all-wool gar
ments of brown, blue and purple. Joe
knows that a big shot heavyweight
must dress the part. He learned that
much the night of the Carnera fight.
when he saw Baer in a suit of hazel
gaberdine, Braddock in a lively black
and-white check number and Dempsey
in white pants and coat and vest OF
the purest robins egg blue. Mistah
Tunney was the only big shot who
dressed soberly, and Joe doesn't want
to be like Mistah Tunney except in
the. matter of cash profits.
Joe is fixed for life. now. Next year
at this. time he will have five times
as much money! He don't say moth
ing, but he must know something, and
he just keeps scowling along.

RACE NOT LIKELY
TO HINDER LOUIS
Critics Believe He Will Get
Title Chance if He
Merits II.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.


n YEW YORK, June 27.-While
nj discussion Of race problems
" likely is to be futile and often
4 distinctly out of order, the
subject now Is too timely and i'm
portant to be avoided in view of the
rise of Joe Louis, the Negro fighter,
as a candidate for the world heavy
weight championship.
Fact Is that the topic is not being
avoided since Tuesday night, when
the bronze Detroiter disposed of Primo
Camera in a most workmanlike and
convincing manner. Everywhere you
go, not only in sporting circles, but in
clubs. hotel lobbies and SO forth, the
question inevitably is raised whether
Louis will be permitted to try for
the title, provided he turns in ad-
ditional evidence of eligibility.
Think He Will Get Chance.
THOSE whose opinions on pugilis-
tic matters as related to politics
are worth while believe that If Joe
makes further progress he will have
his chance to win the championship,
such view being based upon his
demonstrated ability to win approval
and respect of the public, irrespective
of race and color.
This matter of further progress in
wolves line of thought which bristles
with prospects of strenuous action
Max Baer is the next rung on the
Louis ladder-if you can picture any
one so volatile and animated as Max
Baer in the role of a ladder rung.
Anyway, if the former champion
wants another crack at the title,
which he lost so supinely, he will
have to win his way to the attempted
comeback over route in which he
will find progress blocked by Joe
Louis-just as Max in turn blocks
Joe's road to glory.
Even so cheerful and careless a soul
as Baer hardly will be inclined to
view this obstacle with equanimity.
Yet he will have to face it. and, if
possible, surmount 1t, before he will
be entitled to another direct shot
at the title. This, so Mike Jacobs
says, he has agreed to do, and why
not?

Prospect of $750,0O0 Gate

BY ALAN GOULD,

n YEw YORK, June 27.-In less
than two weeks and with less
" than two dozen paralyzing
a punches, Joe Louis has forced
sharp revision of the f1stic picture.
Whether or not Louis gets shot"

Insiders feel certain Max Baer will

him to quit the ring. The reason is

Braddock Ready FOR All.
pUBLIC demand that Louis be given
chance to win the title, despite
prejudice against mixed champion
ship bouts ever since Jess Willard took
the crown away from Jack johnson
in Havana, might be strong enough
to force the rival promoters together
by next year.
This would depend on the ability of
Louis to blast his way past Baer or
'Echmeling. or both. before next Sum-
mer. The prospect is he can do so.
Braddock says he will be ready to
fight Louis or any other logical con-
tender, and he means it.
The dynamite in the Brown Bomb
er's" fists probably ended the fan
tastic fighting career of Carnera, but
boxing experts want to see what Louis
can do when he is hard-pressed be-
fore ranking the Negro youth with the
all-time pugilistic greats.
Louis is under contract for two
more major fights under the auspices
of the Twentieth Century Club, one
this September and the other next
Summer. This does not preclude the
possibility of between-the -big-acts
competition. such as a bout with King
Levinsky, the Chicago fish peddler,
some time during July or August.
