New York-Johnny Style will have little time to go in the water if he tries to wear all the million and one attractive accessories provided for masculine beach and boardwalk loungers.
 Window-shopping on beach robes alone quickly brings the conviction that there are just too many good looking ones around to be described in small space. So here are e few of the high spots that impressed:
 Because of its light weight, cool ness and absorbent qualities, terry cloth continues to be the favorite material. The designer of one terry robe seems to have thought of everything. This model has Q con- vertible collar that buttons high for protection against chill breezes, @ patented gadget to prevent the belt from being lost, waterproof pockets to save you from soggy cigarets, Q handy-sized towel and sandals. These latter two items are patterned to match the design of the robe.
 Another smart robe goes neatly nautical with Q design of sailors knots in white against a navy blue background. This robe is of pique with shawl collar and wide belt of contrasting white ratine.
 Shirt and Stacks Ensemble
 Beach robes skate up and down the spectrum from conservative sol- i'd colors to gaudy exotic patterns such as Sumatra prints and other Oriental motifs. But between the ex- tremes there is a vast assortment of respectfully colorful plaids, checks, stripes and foulard figures.
 Enow-dodgers at our southern rec sorts last winter eagerly took to the ahirt and slack ensemble that has been practically 6 uniform ct smart Mediterranean resorts for some sea- sons past, and these c0l0gful outfits promise to attain even greater paptl- larity this summer.
 Shirt styles and colors match the sands of the lMach in number. Here tufore knitted shirts ok the polo pull-over persuasion have he'd the

any good, and they get out soon as they can."
 Musky was sitting by the ring side as he told me this, and even as he spoke the announcer intro- duced the first of the days sparring partners, one George Clark of New ark. George Clark was 8 skinny lit- tie negro, whose pants, faded by many washings, hung almost to his nkees. He wore plain tan tennis shoes, not sneakers, and his nlouth- piece split his mouth into 6 silly grin. At the bell he ran awkwardly toward Louis, and paved ct him with trembly rights and leftS. Unblink- ing, and with @ face that was a mask, Louis circled George Q few times and then - bingl Bangl Bing [ Whackl Georges head wobbled crazily from hook, bounced straight up from right. His belly doubled from another left, and his mouth and nose bled. The led him out.
 Salvatore Ruggirello, 6 giant Ital- ian who walks unsteadily on his feet, was next.
 "Watch this guy get it," someone whispered at the ringside. "Hc worked a round with Joe last year and after hitting Joe on the chin with his best punch, said his ankle was sprained and quit. Joe'll flat- ten him."
 Joe didn't flatten Salvatore, but 1t would have been the merciful way. He banked the big fellows scared face a nasty red, and beat great red blazes on his sides and back. Salva- tore tried to make 1t from the ring by himself, but as he walked down the little steps his legs failed him, and he skidded sillily to the bottom. They tried to get him to come back for another round, but he mubled no, and circled off toward the showers.
 Young George Godfrey was the next to get kicked around, and was followed by Roy Williams. Louis toyed with Williams until @ minute before the end of the round, then he backed him in the corner and beat on him until Williams, out of his head, slumped across the mid- de rope.
 The workout yesterday was the first time had seen Louis since he disfigured poor old Pauline with q punch on the mouth, and he's much more of e man now. The boyiSh- ness is all gone out of his face and out of his build. The added weight hasn't slowed him down a fraction, and hes '.taoinshrdlushrdlucm and he's hitting even harder, if such c thing is possible. If you like Schmeling, e dollar will get you six today. But I wouldn't advise you to place a bet now. You'll be abIe to get upwards of ten to one when fight time rolls round in June. Copyright, l936. by United press)

By Henry McLemore Limited Press Staf4 CorrespOndent)

Lakewood, N. J., May 27 - (UP) - If you were walking down the street and saw the same sort of fight which Joe Louis puts on here four or five times an afternoon, you'd call e cop and tell him to stop 1t.
 Your sense of fair play simply wouldn't let you walk on past g helpless fellow getting his head knocked off by Q man who viewed his victim as coldly as butcher whacking up c side of beef.
 Yet that sort of thing goes on here every day, and hundreds of peo- pie pay 50 cents a throw to watch 1t. And it's not far off the street at that, for the tent in which the De- troit negro IS preparing himself for the million dollar fight with Max Schmeling, the German, Is pitched only @ few yards off the main high way that leads from New York to the Jersey seacoasts. Neighborhood kids, lacking the 50 cents for tickets. sprawl themselves on the ground and swing from tree branches for Q peek into the outdoor abattoir.
 The training rules laid down by razor -sliced faced Jack Blackburn call for Louis to box five and SIX rounds each day, and it's up to Mushky Jackson, camp attache. to get them. Mushky. Q fight manager himself for 20 years or so, IS one o1 the best flesh procurers in the bus. mess, but he has been hard pressed to keep Louis supplied with targets; };
 T done just about run out" Mushlky forlornly confided yesterday. T bring lem in here, but they don't last but 6 day. That Louis busts their brains out. He's worse'n Dempsey ever was. When he knocks 'em down he picks 'em up and says: you feeling all right2' If they so much as nod their webbing heads, he let's lem loose and whacks again. Punches like that don't do anybody
