Schmeling opens his camp for the
Joe Louis Bout on May 18th, al
though the Uhlan will not don the

midnight on the same evening.
In his training camp, there will
be Accommodations for three thou

WRENS T Ak E
CITY CAGE
TITLE

The Wrens Basketball Team
closed a successful season, We'd
nesday, April %, on the st. Clair
Community tennis court, by de-
feating the Tal-Hal basketeers, 3S
to Is, to win the city recreational
championship. The game was fea-
tured by a fine fourth-quarter rail-
ly by the victors.
The game was closely contested
throughout the first three quar-
tiers, with Wrens holding a slim
one-point lead, the score at that
time standing Is to II.
At the beginning of the fourth
quarter, Russell Middleton, lanky
forward, started the fireworks for
the Wrens, by caging a neat two
pointer.
From then on, it was a question
of how large a score the Wrens
would pile up, as they swarmed
under the Tal-Hal basket, with
Middleton leading the attack, to
chalk up 20 points against their
opponents.
Middleton, by scoring II points,
was high-point man; and Harrison
Stewart, stalwart center, was run
ner-up, with points. Zemar led
the Tal-Hal scoring, with points.

Well, well, we'll! Look who's

believe me, he knows plenty and

The Stone grill on the Boule-

crowd in on (weak) ends; and my
dear friend, Flo Madison, is
dishing out the torch songs, which
the patrons go for in a big way.
They can't say that the little lady

BLACK WINS
SUIT FROM
EX.PARTNER

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Black,
co-manager Of Joe Louis, leading
heavyweight title threat, will not
have to split his share of his earn
ings with julius Browdy, Jewish
ex-partner of Black, Circuit Court
Judge John Prystalski decided Fri
day. Browdy announced immedi-
ately he planned to appeal the case.
Blacks former partner declared
he and the Louis co-manager were
still in business together on July
7. 1884, when Black took $4,000 OF
the partnership funds and invested
in the career of the Brown Bomber.
He contended he was due a share
of the reputed $4,000 profits gar
nered by Black as a result of the
rise Of Louis.
That he and Black were co-own-
ers of a policy wheel was Browdy's
allegation. Irwin c. Mollison, at
torney for the Louis manager, did
not admit his client was involved
in this type of business but in his
motion to dismiss said that if such
were so, Browdy would have
no recourse at law as court
equity would not inquire into and
enforce the rights between parties
to an illegal enterprise.
Previously, according to Molli-
son, Browdy had contended he and
Black were partners in the opera
ton Of a cigar store, night club
and a restaurant. It was testified,
however, that the cigar store was
operated jointly only from May to
November of 1926; the Apex cafe
existed in 1927 and went out Of
business in 1923, and the restaurant
was also discontinued in 1926.
It was in 1884 that Black enter
ed an agreement with John ROxbo-
rough Of Detroit by which he was
to pay training expenses for Louis
in return for one-half of Roxbo-
rOugh's one-third Of the fighters
income.

led hands soft and soothing.
Then-an usual sound arose on
the evening air. A loud clamor and
the rushing Of many feet on the
pavement.
Cries of Lynch him! Lynch
him!" were heard.
There was a hush inside the
church as if the sinister words had
not penetrated the minds of the
congregation.
The church door was thrown
open and the cries of Lynch
him." seemed to burst like a can
non in their midst.
A tattered figure ran stumblingly
down the long aisle. Hatless, his
thin brown hair was matted with
blood. His coat was torn and COW
cred with dirt and bits of leaves
He stood swaying drunkenly. In
his eyes a strange light seemed to
shine and glow.
The ushers hastily locked the
doors as the congregation arose in
alarm. There was a rush for the
aisles as a feeble voice, filled with
anguished cried out,
ooh Joe, Joe my boy"
There was a pounding on the
locked doors, a crash of glass as
stone was hurled through a will
dow. Women screamed in terror,
while little children began to cry
in fright. The men of the church,
with voices hoarse with anger, be-
gan pushing toward the church
door. The church was in an uproar
The deep rumblings of the mob
with shouts of,
well get him if it takes al
night. Lynch him, burn him."
Then the voice that had swayed
them Sunday after Sunday fell like
soothing music on their beating
hearts.
"Stand back, my children. God
will lead the way"
There was a hush. The church
stood still as if for a benediction.
Then the organ burst forth with

Buenos Aires at last! We opened
the day after we arrived, and be-
gan broadcasting the same night.
1 am quite thrilled at the way
everything is being built around
me. The papers are more than
kind; the notices have been marve-
lous; and the photographers act as
though they have had a dearth OF
camera material. They met us at
the boat. l am sure that Cairo is
responsible for this. He is quite the
Zeigield of South America.
But the city-it is marvellous |!
The beautiful skyline that meets
one as he enters the harbor is as
impotng as that of New York, only
the buildings are not as high and
piled up. There is a,piled up effect,
all right, but it is not as exagger-
ated. One gets the idea that every
thing is built of white cement, and
that is about true.
The most peculiar thing about
Buenos Aires is the left hand
drive. It is. quite correct to drive
to the left, as they do in the
British Isles. One knows 1t is the
hing to do because the cops smile
at people who hug the left curb. SO
different from Chicago's hard
boiled cops.

is turning autumn. Yes-isnt It I'M

But if Jason warmed the pastors
heart, the sight of Jason's pretty
companion, Nancy Thomas, the pas

Thomas was more than proud to

He could see Nancy's large dark

proud smile. The sight OF t hat

How many times had he warmed
