HAVANA FIGHT WITH GASTAGA
 IS CANCELLED
Bout for December 29 Postponed By Mike
 Jacobs
By GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Dec. 10-(UP)-The first rift in Joe Louis amazing ring fortune developed today in a totally unexpected quarter-the chambers of a boxing commission.
 The "uncrowned" king of the heavyweights was under suspension in Cuba for failure to agree to go through with his bout at Havana with Isadoro GaStanaga. Promoter Mike Jacobs and Julian Black, one of Louis managers, also were sus- pended by the Cuban commission when the date of the Louis- Gastan- aga bout was postponed from Dec. 29 until Feb. 2.
 New York Angle
 Rafael Cepeda, chairman of the Cuban boxing commission, said that the suspension would hold in New York state, with which Cuba sup- posedly has working agreement. Brig. General John J. Phelan, chairman of the New York state athletic commission, however, de- nied that any reciprocal agreement existed.
 Bill Brown, member of the New York commission, said he was under the impression that New York and Cuba had a working agreement, but emphasized that this state was not bound to suspend the Brown Bomb CT unless facts warranted it. Promoter Jacobs announced the postponement yesterday in Havana after receiving a cable from Julian Black in Chicago that Louis was overtrained due to II months of strenuous activity and needed a months rest. Louis will make his next start against Charlie Retzlafi of Duluth, Minn., at the Chicago stadium, Jan. IT.
 The Cuban suspension is the first commission trouble in which Louis has become entangled. In and out of the ring, good luck has been the Brwon Bomber's invisible compan- ion during his dramatic rise to fistic heights. Up to now Louis hasn't been worried by the trials and trib- uldIIOllo WAAACAl 111dA hCO tAlC CdICCAE of other prominent Negro heavy weights such as Jack Johnson Harry Wills, George Godfrey, Joe Jeannette, Sam McVey and others His only obstacles have been in the ring and he blasted those out of his path.
 The opinion was prevalent in New York boxing circles that the Louis Gastanaga bout will never be helt in Havana. Among the reasons ad vanced were:
 1. Possible political unrest afte forthcoming Cuban elections.
 2. Danger of ruining the build-ul for Louis-Schmeling bout here il June if Louis should fail to k. 0 Gastanaga.
 3. Fear that Louis is being rushed along too fast and may really neet 8 vacation after steady campaign ing.
 4. Likelihood that the bout woule prove an unprofitable venture fol Jacobs and Louis.
 Louis is under contract not to eI1. gage in any bouts after Jan. 3. until he meets Schmeling, but Jo'

|NAUGATUCK HIGH
 HOOP SQUAD WON OPENING GAME
Junior Republic 4O-3O Victims of FOleymen-
 Sweeney Stars

Naugatuck, Dec. 2O.-The Nauga- tuck high school basketball team, victorious in its first game of the season will meet Shelton high here Saturday night at the local Y. M. c. A. Naugatuck trimmed the Junior Republic quintet of Litchfield 40-30 last night in Q game played in the high school gymnasium, the first contest between high school boys teams played there in IS years.
 Miles Sweeney was the outstand- ing performer for the Garnet last night. He swished the hoop six times for 12 points, some of these shots being highly spectacular. Ster- niak turned in nice game at right guard, getting seven points.
 Even Start
 Junior Republic matched Nauga- tuck in the first quarter, the score being seven-all at the end. However, the locals jumped into the lead during the second quarter and fin- ished the first half 1913. They vir- tually clinched the game in the third quarter, leading at the con- clusion of this period, 32-17.
 The game was occasionally rough. Coach Peter J. Foley gave some sub- stitutes a tryout. Socoloff featured for the visitors, scoring II points. Naugatuck had the large amount of 19 fouls called against it and Junior Republic scored on 10 of these tries. The visitors were only called nine times and Naugatuck sank four of these.

BOSTON BATTLE
 TONIGHT LOOMS VERY IMPORTANT
Mccoy and ShuCcO's I'm. mediate Ring Future
 Depends on Result
BY FRANK MURPHY

Limited Press Stan Corresp0ndentD
 Boston, Dec. 20-(UP.)-Boston born Tony Shucco and Al Mccoy. Bostonian by adoption, swap punch- es at the Garden tonight in q scheduled 12-r0und bout that means everything to their respective cham pionship ambitions.
 Shucco's New England heavy- weight and light-heavyweight championships are at stake in the Boston attraction. But both fighters will be looking beyond sec tional honorS toward dark-skinner John Henry Lewis and his world light-heavyweight crown.
 Far more active in ringfire dur ing the past year so probably in better fighting fettle, Mccoy will enter the ring favored by odds that have narrowed from 10-7 to 1O-9 in the past few days. Physically, the rangier Shucco, at perhaps 180, will enjoy a weight advantage of around five pounds.
 GVGu NnUkCG
 Quiet, serious boxing students, neither with a playboy complex, Shucco and Mccoy will bank on the experience gained from scores of first-rank conQueStS. Both have fared well against mutual Opp0- nents, a factor that makes the bout so hard to dope.
 | r E.sj3 Bob Olin, Joe Knight, and Al Gainer-but so has Mccoy. In ads dition, Shucco has kayoed or olit- pointed Jimmy Braddock, Maxey Rosenbloom, Unknown Winston, Al Stillman and Lee Ramage. Mccoy has conquered Tait Littman, Bob Goodwin, Johnny Anderson and Billy Jones.
 Aside from it's immediate eeC@ tional interest, the bout looms all~ important for Al and Tony as Te~ gards national ratings.
 An impressive victory for Mccoy might mean an early crack at Eub-, heavyweight Champion Lewis. It probably would mean a prompt re- turn bout with British Jock Mo- Avoy, who outpointed Al in their recent New York meeting, or bout with Pittsburgh's Babe Risko should he beat McAvoy in New York to- night.
 Sharkey? Shucco's progress toward Lewis bout would be slower, even If Tony should beat Mccoy, but the North
 End Italian has other things in view. He may get an early Boston match with veteran Jack Sharkey if he comes through.
 Johnny Rossi, Worcester middle- weight, and Frankie Britt of Fall River will meet in to-night's 10- round semi final. Six round matches
 will bring together Dick Hogan Of
 Boston and Eddie Gates of Pitts , field, heavyweights; Matty Bloom i; of Revere and Jimmy Ostall of Cam ; ada, heivyweights; Joe Ricciotti of , Boston and Irish Jimmy O'Bryne of Maine, welterweights; Johnny Bangs of Boston and Dave Castil-
 loux of Waterville, Me.

He asks Ferris to reg ister his strike and filler on the score sheet as he has never had this same problem before.

 Ferris sends Pic down to the offic. for a comptometer. Mulholland in quires "What for?" Ferris says, "S' we can add up the score. You knov we can't count on you" Now the, are in Mulholland's corner-ah-ex cuse mel must be dozing off
