FOR FIGHT FRIDAY
Chance That Bomber Will
Be Upset Proves Great
Crowd Magnet.
~ the Associated Press.

6y Lne ASSOClAteQ FIcoSs
n YEw YORK, January 23.-
M Sensing a possible but highly
VI improbable upset, a capacity
4 crowd of $4,000 spectators Is
expected at Madison Square Garden
Friday night to watch Bob Pastor,
fighting descendant of Suffragette
Rose Pastor Stokes, battle Brown
Bomber Joe Louis.
The match, for 10 rounds, was re-
garded far and wide as just another
Louis set-up until Promoter Jimmy
Johnston of the Garden began to
drum up the idea that Pastor, piloted
by Jimmy Johnston, jr.. could beat the
Bomber.
Johnston's prediction did more than
cause a furry at the box office. Pro-
moter Mike Jacobs, alarmed lest Joe
be caught unawares by better fighter
than bargained for. hustled his fat
and contented fighter into immediate
action.

Louis Spurred to Action.

T OUIS, a bit listless and overcon-
- fident, now has been stirred into
action. In his training camp at Pomp-
ton Lakes, N. j., the Brown Bomber
is working much harder than he did
for Max Schmeling.
II know what I'm talking about;
Pastor will lick Louis Friday night,
says Johnston, who reminds the ex-
perts that he was one of the very few
who picked Schmeling to trim Louis
"It won't take Joe more than a
round to polish Pastor off," counter
punches Trainer Jack Blackburn
"JoeIl be ready for him."
New York boxing experts, who'd
rather be right than President, now
that they've picked SO many losers,
can't see anything but Louis victory,
although they are punctuating their
speculation with plenty of loopholes.

OS ANGELES, Calf, January

OS ANGELES, CdlI., january
23.-The annual believing con-
test between Jay Hammer Dean
- and Branch Hickey seems bit
slow in starting this Winter.
Dean has done his part to open the
annual argument by demanding the
small sum of s5o,ooo-or is it 100000?
to cast base balls in his accustomed
manner for the st. Louis Cardinals
next Summer. To this casual demand
Hickey has answered nothing.
Hickey likely is saving his voice and
energy for the final tangle with the
tall pitcher. As an orator, Hickey has
few equals in base ball and usually
can talk any individual or gathering
into submission over the long or short
route. But in Jay Hammer Dean Mr..
Hickey recognizes rival Of equal dur
ability, If not skill. Dean lacks the
forensic talents of his boss and can
not match polysyllables or even geS-
lures, but when he mentions so grand
or is it 100 grand?-as the stipend
necessary to fetch him to the mound,
Mr.. Rikey becomes more or less
tongue-tSd.
Games Greatest Attraction.
nEAN always starts as party of the
first part in the annual believing
contest, but always winds up as party
Of the second part, when Mr.. Hickey
gets him in the final clinch. Hickey
knows Dean Is necessary to the sue
cess Of the st. Louis Cardinals, but he
also knows the st. Louis Cardinals
are necessary to the success of Jay
Hammer Dean, and the pitcher will
have to take what is offered
Dean won't get the SO grand-or is
It 100 grand?-but he will get good
wage, and the man is entitled to all
he can pry out of the st. Louis organ
ization. Without him the ST. Louis
Cardinals would be just another ball
team and the Gas House Gang would
run short Of gas.
Dizzy is the greatest individual
attraction in the major leagues; prob
ably third only to Babe Ruth and Ty
Cobb in the history of the game.
Lou Gehrig is great ball player,
but doubt If he attracts as many
customers to the parks as Dean.
Dizzy not only is the greatest right
handed pitcher in the business. but
a natural born Snowman. His antics
are as amusing as his pitching is
great and it is impossible to measure
his worth to the Cardinals.
Cards Stand to Win Flag.
THE Cardinals stand to win the
= National League pennant this
year If they get sufficient pitching.
Dean easily is one-third Of any
pitching staff, for he Is indefatigable,
always willing to work out Of turn
for the benefit of his team. With
Lonnie Warneke. secured from the
Chicago Cubs to assist DEAN the
