of elimination, who should earn
the right to meet Jack Dempsey
for the heavyweight champion
ship of this world, we were one
of the 10000 persons in that
gigantic fistic bowl that memo
rable night, who saw Wills give
Firpo the worst beating of his
career in that 12-round bout, which
went the limit; tonight's fight
parallels that encounter in many
respects; in eliminating Firpo,
Wills removed from his path the
outstanding fighter who stood be-
tween him and Champion Demp-
sey; it is a matter of history that
Wills never realized his ambition
to fight for the heavyweight title.
Tonight Joe Louis, in his on
ward march to force Braddock into
battle for the championship,
will essay to eliminate Levinsky
and subsequently blast Schmeling
and Baer from the picture. AS
in the case of Wills, will history
repeat? My answer is in the
negative; the present economic
condition Of the fight game pre-
cludes the possibility of a box
office attraction like Joe Louis
being denied an opportunity to
fight for the championship of the
heavyweight division; during the
time Wills was fighting, big gates
and large purses were frequent,
but after the defeat of Dempsey
and the retirement of Tunney, in
terest in boxing almost became
nil; Joe Louis, with his tremen-
dous crowd-appeal, has revived in
terest in fstic affairs, so it is quite

JOE RECEIVES OVATION

Levinsky is introduced first and
received generous applause, but it
seems a Joe Louis crowd for Joe
receives greater ovation.
The bell sends them on their
scheduled 10-round bout; they
meet in the center of the ring and
approach one another cautiously.
Louis is the first to assume the
aggressive; he extends his left
arm it's full length, but makes no
attempt to use it; he finally feints
Levinsky into the desired position
and floors him for short count;
Levinsky is up and attempting to
land one of his famous right
swings, but Louis keeps on top
of him and Levinsky's efforts are
futile; a few seconds later LEVIN

Man Shot, Two
Held By Mill
City Police
WOMAN TAKES BLAME THEN
CHANGES STORY

One man is near death following
a shooting at north Minneapolis
home Monday, and a man and a
woman are being held in the city
Jail.
The wounded man is William or
John Wright, home address I'M
known, who was shot at GIG Jewett
Place, following an alteration
with Mrs. Ida Gilbert, 26, of that
address.
Conflicting Reports
When questioned by the police
shortly after the shooting Mrs.
Gilbert, who is also known by her
maiden name Jones, told detec-
tives that she shot him right after
he made indecent proposals to her.
In her first statement she said that
she shot him and would shoot him
again. Arrested with her was
Henry Williams, a roomer at the
same address, who was held for
questioning.
Stories Conflict
The story told by Williams and
the story told by Mrs. Gilbert did
not compare so police continued to
hold them for two days after their
arrest. Finally Williams admitted
shooting Wright in defense of the
woman. According to Williams he
shot Wright in the house as he
ran out into the street. Mrs. Gil
bert fired another shot in his direc-
ton, but Williams does not think
that this shot took effect. Wright
was found to have only one bullet
wound.
After Woman Attempts to Shield
Man
After police received Williams
second statement in connection
with the shooting, Mrs. Gilbert was
confronted with the statement and
she admitted that Williams came
% her defense and that her first
story was not true, that she had
simply sought to take the blame
n the case.
Wounded Mans Condition Serious
William Wright, the wounded
man, who is also known as John
Wright, whose home is in Dallas,
Texas, remains in a serious condi-
ton in the City hospital. Thursday
several blood tranfusions were
necessary to keep him alive.

Way Towards Fistic Top
By Defeating Levinsky
Hamlet Rowe Gives HighIights of Fight

obvious that the most biased man
ayers and promoters will not per-
NIT their prejudices to interfere
with their financial betterment;
it is the opinion of this writer that
Louis is sure to get a crack at the
title.
While waiting for the main
event, and still in reminiscent
mood, we recall that it was in
this ball park that we saw Young
Jack Thompson, Aug. 80, 1928,
knock out Champion Joe Dundee
in the third round of non-title
bout; and again we remember that
it was in Chicago that we saw
the late Tiger Flowers robbed of
his middleweight crown, when
Referee Benny Yanger gave the
verdict to Mickey Walker at the
conclusion of their 10-round fra
cas-, also that it was here in Chi
cago that we saw Jack Dempsey
victim of long count by Referee
Dave Barry; while waiting for the
gong to start Louis and Levinsky
on their way in their 1O-round
bout, we cannot help from recall
ing those unfair incidents, all
happening here in Chicago. We
cannot brush aside the veil that
obscures our vision from the
things of the future, but it is our
belief that Joe Louis will not be
a victim of a bum decision to-
night, for like Sam Langford, the
Brown Bomber. will take into
the ring with him tonight his
own referee, his mighty dukes;
Louis terrific blows are his
greatest assurance of a fair de-
cision. We won't have to worry
about the outcome much longer,
for it will only be a short time
before tonight's battle will be a
matter of history.

It is now 9:10 and the announcer

special appeal to the crowd to con-
form to the tradition of good
craftsmanship and to accord the
better man the proper considera-

motors, asked that vast throng not
to permit their passions to run
rampant on account of race, creed
or color. His appeal met with
vociferous applause.

Kills Sister = in Law
And Wounds His Wife
MAN ATTACKS WOMEN WITH
OUT NOTICE

on record, a St. Paul man fatally
slashed his sister-in-law, Monday,
killing her almost instantly in cold
blood and seriously wounding his
wife, in the offices of an attorney.
The dead woman is Mrs. Eva
Bobo, 522 st. Anthony Avenue,
who was fatally cut with knife
by her brother-in-law, Aaron G.
Shauntee, the other woman still
in serious condition in Ancker
hospital, is Mrs. Irene Shauntee,
wife of the crazed killer. Shaun
tee is held without bail in the city
Jail pending arraignment for the
murder of his sister-in-law and
awaiting the result of his wife's
injuries. The tragedy occurred in
the offices of Archie L. Gingold,
white, attorney, located at 801
Globe Bldg.
Couple Were Separated
The Shauntees were recently
separated. Mrs. Shauntee accom-
panied by her sister, Mrs. Bobo,
went to the offices of her attorney,
Mr.. Gingold, for a conference with
Shauntee on the matter of DISPOSE
ton of certain furniture owned
jointly by the estranged couple.
Attacks Without Warning
The two women arrived first and
sat in the ante-room of the Of
fees awaiting Shauntee's appear
ance. Suddenly Shauntee came
into the office and Immediately
without saying a word began to
slash both of the women. Mrs.
Bobo died almost instantly, while
Mrs. Shauntee was cut until she
lost consciousness. Gingold, with
the aid of other people in the
building, took the knife away from
Shauntee who after his deed sat
quietly in the ante-room of the
lawyer awaiting police.
Mrs. Shauntee's life was prob
ably saved when Arthur jain,
white, 1872 Iglehart avenue, eleva-
tor operator, hearing the women's
screams left his elevator and
rushed into the law office, took the
knife away from Shauntee before
he could infict fatal wounds on
his wife.
Crazy Over His Wife
Questioned Wednesday by E.
Bratter of the Ramsey County at
torney's office, Shauntee said that
he was "still crazy over his wife"
and that he had planned revenge
because she had left him. He still
hopes for reconciliation with his
wife if she lives. Indictment for
Shauntee for first degree murder
will be filed with the Ramsey
County grand jury. Mr.. Bobo,
husband of Mrs. Bobo, was re-
turning home from trip to Ron
do, Arkansas, at the time of her
death. He was reached by a
radio broadcast through the AS
sociated Press.
