predict it will be a blood
lust battle, probably most COM
parable to the Dempsey -Firpo
fight of 1923.
For, along such a line of pro-
cedure lies MAJ Baer's only
chance to win, and for 81 days
and nights, or since he went
into his Spectator training
camp one month ago today, he
has been saying over and over
to himself-"I must win, I must
win!"
Boxing Too Risky
He dare not come out tonight
trying to box with the Slugglng
scientist, Joe Louis, of whom
many of my more learned breth,
rem speak in the same breath
with the great Sam Langford.
So Baer's best bet is to call
upon his ancestors of the Paleo-
zoic Age for the fiendish strength
and abysmal brutality to lay his
prey at his feet at the first pos
sible instant, for my friends, the
longer tonight's scheduled 15-
round fight between Max and
Joe with six-ounce gloves lasts

chances of the white hope.
use such a term merely as a
ring phrase, borrowed from the
mauve decade of pugiliSm, and
not because I have been able, in
my ramblingS between the camps
of the principals, to sense any
racial hatred or feeling in to-
nights embroglio.
In fact, after having watched
the public reaction here in June
when Louis whipped Carnera,
and in Chicago, in August, when
Louis made such short work OF
Kingfish Levinsky, I have be-
come convinced that America
has quite outgrown all hypocrisy
and bigotry when it comes to
sports issues involving nationali-
ties, colors or creeds.
sportsmen's Greed
I am happy to say of my fell
lowmen that insofar as athletics
is concerned America has but
one slogan:
"May the best man win"
The few thoughtless folks who
have expressed to me a blanket
hope that Louis loses, I have
been able to temper with the as
surance that if they knew this
boy as I do, had observed his
conduct under a variety of emo
tions, they would dismiss any
half-baked predictions.
To the casual observer of peo-
pie, Joe Louis is as likeable a
person as you'd expect any ordi-
nary American youth of his age
and background to be. He is un-
spoiled by the events of the last
year and half. Naked, he is as
though he were nodded of bronze
by an old master.
His smooth, graceful curves
presenting a perfect anatomy.
chiseled of flesh and bones such
as nature does only by her ia
vorite sons, could be a model for
the snootiest art class this or the
other side of Greenwich Village.
Compact Fighting Machine
But Joe Louis is more than
that. Besides being prize spec.
linen of the human species to
gaze upon, he has become ii a
marvelously short span, the en-
bodiment of strength and fight
ing skill-a potion the fight pro.
fesSion has lacked since Jack
Dempsey's sun commenced to
set. That is why I Introduced
Louis to you above as the child
OF destiny. He is on4y 81.
In Louis 200-odd pounds, give
