THE COMMHNITY CLEARING
HOUSE-POSt-P Want-AdS.
BY HENRY McLEMORE

NEW YORK, July 7 up The
country which I have nicknamed
La Belle France is said to be deep
ly concerned over the selection OF
Tony Galento as No. l heavy
weight challenger by our National
Boxing association.
Frances alarm is easy to under
stand. 1t recognizes in the N. B.
A. an organization capable of max
ing serious bid for boxing's olaf
finess championship, long a
property of the Partisan body, the
International Boxing union.
France is very proud of the
spade bearded, absinthe-d drinking
zanies who, from their headquar-
ters in a wing Of the building
that houses the Coincide Fran
caise, issue nonsensical edicts un-
der the title of the I.B.U. Every
true Frenchman applauded the
LBU. a few year back when it
named OF Harry Wills champion
of the world, and Pierre Charles
as his foremost challenger. OF
Harry was hog-fat and wrestling
fer a living at the time but that
didn't bother the IB.U.
Neither did the fact that Pierre
Charles was well past a prime he
never had. These rulings, and doz-
ems of others of a like nature, en-
abled the IB.U, year after year,
to brush aside all challenges to
their Stiffness supremacy.
But now France is worried for
its beloved I.B.U., and rightly so
Because any organization which
can sit in solemn session and
name Tony Galento as the No
challenger for Joe Louis title, and
then call in reporters and ask
them to broadcast the selection to
the world is no mean threat to
honorS for Weakness. And that is
exactly what three profound gen.
tlemen who are the National Box
ing association did.
They passed oyer Tommy Farr,
the scar-faced Welshman who went
the full Is rounds against Louis
without once hitting the floor
They passed over Max Baer, the
former champion, who proved he
was serious in his comeback by
beating Farr. They passed over
Bcb Pastor, another who went all
the way with Louis without get
ting hurt. And they ignored Max
Schmeling, man who has knock
ed out Louis just as often as Louis
has knocked out him.
And how did the learned N.B.A.
'ers get around one Arturo Godoy,
the rought and rugged heavyweight
from Chile? Godoy is no picture
fighter but he certainly made a
picture of Galento in their two
fights. He beat Tony all over the
