BLACKBURN
TELLS OF
JOE'S STYLE

NEW YORK-(C)-Jack Black
burn, trainer Of Joe Louis, tells Of
why Joe fought as he did against
AL Ettore in Philadelphia last
week. In an interview with Ed
ward Van Every, Joe's biographer
in the New York Sun, Blackburn
said: ut was a nice job that Joe
did. Some of the boys seem to
think that he pressed too hard.
with the result that he did a lot
Of missing. Let me tell you that
Joe fought exactly according to
instructions, got his man readied
for the finish by doing what he
was told, and finished up the job
real stylish when the time came.
Against a fighter with a style
like Ettore's you could not go in
for strictly counter-fight, at which
maybe Joe is best. What is more,
that Ettore baby was not going 70
be knocked out with one punch,
because with his wabbling around
when he is full of the old pepper
he is hard to nail with a clean
shot SO what?
"Joe had to salt him a bit so
he wasn't quite so fresh, and he
did it by crowding the crowder.
Which is okay against a mauler.
Joe got in one damager in the
first which was almost, but not
quite, enough. In the fourth Joe
got Al good and was able to pick
his shots in the next round. Once
Joe can do his picking he doesn't
have to do much shooting"

SPEAKER AT
NAZE RALLY

New York-Avery Brundage
who barred Jesse Owens from
amateur ranks because Owens OBJ
jected to transforming through
Europe after running and jumping
his heart out at the Olympic games
in Berlin, is scheduled to be one of
the speakers at a rally in Madison
Square Garden October of Ameri-
can Hitlereites using the name
"The United German Societies of
Greater New York"
An idea of the attitude Of the
German Americans supporting this
rally is found in a statement in a
local Nazi paper "Deutsche Week
ruf and Beobachter' as follows:
All Germans, though they ac-
quire American citizenship, must
be loyal to Hitler After all we
share American citizenshi pwith
Cinnamon and Niggers. Being an
American is an outward formali-
ty."
In other words the American
Nazis, although technically Ameri-
can citizens, have contempt for
their fellow American citizens who
are not white, and subscribe whole
heartedly to the race hatred doc
trine of Hitler. Avery Brundage,
who barred Americas greatest
track star from amateur competi-
ton, evidently feels at home in this
kind of company.

SCRIBBLINGS
(By VIM. t. PATRICK, Jr.)

Last week end we found our
selves attending an affair over on
the East End section Of our town
and were astounded with a report
of Joe Louis death. 1t all started
when two dashing young fellows
who had dropped down to the cor
ner drugs for a sundae or So
came back with the report that our
Joe had been fatally injured in an
automobile accident. They had
heard it announced over the ra-
do down on the corner they as
sured us. None believed them:
they had heard that one before
They just laughed it off
Undaunted by the reproaches
that they had encountered, the two
carried on and soon became 50
profound in their contention that
few began to believe them. And
thus a rumor made its way from
mouth to mouth throughout the
gathering, carrying with it a cloud
of gloom that enveloped them. Cab
Galloway was swinging at his best
over the ether waves; but one by
one the couples left the floor and
made their way to the side to con-
verse with someone as to the
truthfulness of the rumor. Some
really believed it and were heard
to murmur their sympathies and
praises for this great gladiator of
the modern ring. The music went
on, few couples still danced, and
the gloom remained. Everyone
was waiting for the extra" 10
boom forth with the news of the
, tragedy. An half hour passed, but
none came.
Then across the street daily
news truck was spotted and the
driver Immediately mobbed, with
inquiries as to Louis reported death
which of course he had heard moth
ing of and he told them so. Thus a
rumor was expelled and with it the
cloud of gloom that had enveloped
a merry group for thirty minutes
this all goes to show the love that
people have for Joe and what dam
age one of those detestable rumors
can cause.
Sure we had heard such rumors
before Of plane and auto crashes
that Joe had been in, but this Is
the closest we have ever come TO
the origination OF such a plot.
Rumors have, are, and always will
follow those before the public eye.

1t is the duty of every musician
TO avail himself of this opportuni-
~, to see, hear, and meet Mr..
Handy in person. Do not let the
others show more appreciation for

porary American Music.

or that may have been his.
Will the same be Simmons fate p?
We hope not.
In the same game Bernard JEFF
ferson, big Northwestern fullback
who halls from Grand Rapids,
made his debut in the big time.
Reports state that he played fine
game of ball and was especially
impressive with his punts and
shows promise of future greatness.
He is only a sophomore and has
much time to develope. We failed
to find mention of Clarence Hin
ton having played in the game.
Hinton, a halfback now in his jun
ior year, saw a little service with
the Northwestern team in 1885.
Don Simmons and Homer Harris,
ends, also saw service for Iowa.
Chocolate Returning!
Kid Chocolate, erstwhile bon bon
boy of the ring of several years
ago, attempted another of his
"comebacks" recently at Havana,
outpointing Jose Santos, of New
York, in ten rounder. "The
Keed" is reported to have display
ed flashes of his former greatness
in capturing nine Of the ten heats,
Santos managing to even matters
in the other. Glad to see him
win, but Chocolate will never at
tain the heights Of yesteryear for
"they don't comeback" and / might
add, usually.
This is only one of the numerous
times that he has attempted to re-
turn, but they always end in mel
ancholy failure.

every member of the cast eager for
opening night, October Is.
A big factor in making this eff
fort on the part of the members
of the New Theatre Union a sue
cess, however, hinges upon the re-
ception of the play at the Art In
stitute when it is presented. If
the colored population of Detroit
does not support this effort to tell

stage, the group will have to a
bandon it's attempts in that direc-
ton.
The support of "Stevedore" and
a real theatre movement depends
upon the colored population of De-
troit. It's support is vitality neces-
sary if plays dealing with the as
pirations and struggles of colored
people are ever to be unfolded in
the city.

that unless private industry alb
sorbed large numbers of the I'M
employed, he would seek at least
$500,000,000 more from congress
next January.
Indications were that, instead of
a reduction in need, relief rolls
will turn upward this winter.
Latest estimates show there still
are 100000 unemployed in the
country. Last summers drought
added to the burden.
To meet the need, Hopkins will
continue WPA activities attacked
so bitterly as "wasteful" and Eek
travagant" by Landon and the Re-
publican national committee. All
WPA subdivisions financing work
for white-collar needy, student-aid
for youth, writer's projects and
women's activities will be extend
ed.
The United States re-employ-
ment service will be expanded,
financed by a new $1,125,000 al
lotment announced by Mr.. Roose-
welt during the campaign.
The agency will seek to find
Jobs with private firms for needy
through suboffices, keeping a close
contact with employment condi-
tions.

A conservative Democratic block
is developing in congress today,
led by such statesmen as Senators
Carter Glass and Harry F. Byrd,
of Virginia, Senator Royal S.
Copeland, New York, Senator Da-
vid |. Walsh, Mass, Senator Eli
son d. Smith, S. c., and Senator
Josiah w. Bailey, N. c. Outside
official life the Al Smiths, John

filiation with Mr.. Roosevelt's par
ty and the battle is or with those
elements attempting to regain
control of the Democratic label
from the president before it fades
entirely under the imprint of the
New Deal.
Therefore, the party division
between nominal Democrats and
nominal Republicans in congress
does not reflect the actual divi-
sion of political philosophy as 1t
exists in congress and the politi-
cal differences existing among
congressional Democrats a n d
among the millions of Democrats,
independents, left wingers, Soci-

Political observers are wonder
ing, for instance, how long the
uniformly conservative leaders OF
southern thought can be kept IN
step with the more liberal or rad
ical political paraders OF the
great industrial centers. And on
the political horizon are storm
clouds of a mighty contest for
control of the machine Mr.. Roose'
Welt has created because four
years hence some man must faii
heir to it.

extended further in fields hither.

many horses, mainly those train

appears to be spreading. Several
well-backed horses have been
withdrawn from recent important
races because they were victims
