LOUISIANA BOUT
 ATSOLDIER FIELD?

Chicago, March 31-(UP)-Pro- moter Mike Jacobs was expected from New York today to dicker with members of Chicago's South Park board over rental of Solder field for the proposed Joe Louis-Max Sch- meling fight in June. Louis must first dispose of Harry Thomas in the stadium Rriday night. He was a 20 to 1 favorite to retain his heavy weight championship againnst Thomas and there was virtually no wagering on the bout at those odds.
 Although New York, Philadelphia and Detroit were considered for the million dollar return match between Louis and Schmeling, it was report ed hicago would get the bout if Jacobs can secure Soldier field for a satisfactory rental fee. The south park board demanded 25 per cent of the gross receipts for the Louis Braddock fight last June and drove Jacobs into Comiskey park.

United Press Staff COrrespOndent) New York, March 31.-UP)- Princess Baba of Sarawak and her graphing groom Bob Gregory today bemoaned the fates that led them into the clutches of Paul Bowser, Boston wrestling czar.
 Bowser has the couple under con- tract for performances three times a week, and these frequent appear ances are playing hob with their ambitions to perform in Hollywood's $ movies.
 The Gregory fact" was given last night in New York for the first time in an attempt to revive the grunt- andgroan art in Madison Square Garden. Both did their parts well. the handsome young Britisher throwing one Henri Lassartes of France in eight minutes and 45 seconds with a "surfboard" hold while the Princess cheered from Bobs corner. And not forgetting the co-feature, Steve (Crusher) Casey successfully defended his claim against fellow Irishman and -titleholder, Danno O'Mahoney.
 Bowser has Gregory under con- tract for two more months with an option to renew the document for another two months, which he sure- ly will do if injection of sex appeal into the mat game has stimulated as much interest at the box office as the publicists claim. The show drew almost 5000 persons into the Garden last night despite a rainy night, rival show starring Jimmy Londos in the Bronx, and feather weight champion, Henry Armstrong fighting at the Hippodrome.
