n YEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Natie
M Mann, like many young
" fighter before him, is con-
a vinced he is about to become
the worlds heavyweight champion.
There is hope and high excitement
In the hillside camp near Summit,
N. j.. where Matte, % and only three
years out OF the amateur ranks, is pre-
pairing for his l5-round 60 with Cham
pion Joe Louis on February %.
What matter that common sense
says Louis figures to win and that the
hard-headed gamblers of this city are
Offering 4 to l against the lad from
Connecticut. Matte is sure he will
knock the big Negro into the tcle-
graph instruments. and so is every
body else around his camp, including
the famed Nine. Bey.
There must be something contagious
about it. After watching Matte work
over couple of sparring partners and
hearing what he had to say this OBJ
server came away convinced he is the
best short-end bet since Jim Corbett.
Never Has Been Kayoed.
ITS a chance hadn't dreamed OF
getting this quick" said Mann.
It's a wonderful break for me. and I
won't muff it. Did you know that the
Governor Of Connecticut and about a
thousand others are coming down from
New Haven to watch me win?"
He feels that way, possibly, because
he never has been knocked out.
Il had to sign an agreement to
light Louis again within so days if I
win the title" he revealed, but that
doesn't bother me. If whip him once
can whip him again. No. I won't
necessarily fight Schmeling after that.
I'll fight whoever figures to pull the
biggest crowd"
Matte, who gains assurance from the
fact that he is 5 feet 10la inches tall
and weighs 1913 pounds, the same as
John L. sullivan in his prime, went
on to explain that Louis, besides Of
ferlng an easy target for a body at
tack, doesn't like good right-hand
sock on the jaw.
"Schmeling proved that" he added,
and did you notice how he batted his
eyes and covered up any time Farr
threw a right at him?"
Does All Asked of Him.
MANN, in his workouts with Johnny
Winters. a clever Negro heavy
weight from Detroit. has Winters toss
Ing lefts round after round.
While everybody can't share Mann's
optimism. It is conceded that he is
about at the top Of the countrys young
heavyweights. He has. as his manager,
Jimmy De Angelo. puts it, done every
thing asked of him. He beat both Bob
Pastor and Gunnar Barlund last year.
He licked Pastor more impressively
than Louis did. He at.least is as good
man as Tommy Farr, who lasted IS
rounds with Louis, and maybe better.
He is not Harry Thomas.
II there's anything in tradition.
Natie's chances of lifting th- ',e----
weight crown indoors are very slim. II
never has been done. Also, There s.
plenty OF those who point out that
boxing is a business, not a sport and
that nothing is going to happen to
that Louis-Schmeling natural next
June.
Still, maybe Mann doesn't know
about all that.
