and in his pocket is very fancy legal document guaranteeing him no fewer than 50 thousand dollars for a spot of work that might not require more than IS or 20 minutes of actual labor Not bad spot for a fellow who, a few years back, was groping in the blackness of a mine shaft.
 Without calling up Jack Doyle, my favorite betting commissioner, I would say that right now dollar would bring you seven or eight if youu wanted to wager on Farr's chances against Louis. It might not be bad bet at those prices. Farr can't be an absolute bust, being as he has beaten Baer, Neusel, Peter sen, Bob Olin and Tommy Loughran in the last year. In fact, that's a fbair record for a guy who stands straight up and depends chiefly on left jab and a stout heart. Ger i tainly it's a record that proves he isn't of the Phil Scott type, given to topping to the floor with the first sign of danger.

New York, July 7-(UP)-Tommy Farr, the Welshman with the stand up haircut and matching fighting stance, clears from Paris on the Bremen Saturday, bound for the United States and fight with Joe Louis.
 The way was cleared for this fight which will feature the holder of the British empire title and the holder of the worlds title, when the New York boxing commission, in yesterday shirt-sleeve session, named Farr as the No. heavy weight challenger. When the com missioners went in their great oak paneled room, and closed the great oak -paneled door behind them, the betting was even money that they would blackball Farr to revenge themselves on Promoter Mike Jacobs for taking the Louis-Brad- dock fight to Chicago.
 No Trouble
 But apparently they were as docile as lambs, because they not only hung out the welcome sign for Farr, but tentatively okayed Jacobs idea of staging show in which four world champions will defend their crowns. This latter item is the most amazing fight promotion scheme ever to buzz in a promoters s bonnet. It is Jacobs plan to have SiXto Escobar. Lou Ambers, Barney Ross. and Marcel Thil all at the post fin one night. One wag has suggested to Jacobs that he go the whole way and have Tunney sell Ing peanuts, Dempsey hawking programs, Braddock punching tick cts, and Canzoneri Jack Johnson and a dozen or more champions and eX-champions chopping tickets. Jacobs has taken this under advise. ment. He'll probably do 1t.
 But to get back to Farr, that young man probably will spend the first two days at sea pinching him. self to see If 1t really is true-that he isn't dreaming, but actually is on the ocean enroute to a heavy weight fight. Because 1t wasn't long ago. you know, that Farr was right down in those coal mines of Wales, working for very small wage. Two years ago he was just another British heavyweight-which is tc say he was working the small clubs for fish and chips money, without a great deal of hope for the future
