Joe Louis. heavyweight champion
of the world. will defend his cham
pionship against John Henry Lewis,
light heavyweight titleholder in a
mid-winter tuneup bout.
The match came as a complete
surprise to the fight experts be-
cause Lewis and his manager failed
10 fall in line when Mike Jacobs
came into promotorial power. Lewis
also has 100000 damage suit pend
ing against the New York athletic
commission because that body va
Gated his title on the state.
At first glance the match looked
like a conspiracy between Jacobs
and the commission to rid them
selves of the pest" by letting
Champion Louis belt John Henry
into the daffodils.
Closer Inspection
But upon closer inspection. the
bout assumes the aspects of a real
battle. Lewis is a rough, ring-hard-
ened warrior who has never been
knocked out, and he packs the
punch to kayo the glass jawed
champion.
Joe, with a 20 pound weight ad-
vantage, will undoubtedly be a
heavy favorite. John Henry, how
ever, is as young as Louis and Is
a better boxer.
Jacobs and the Louis camp re-
gard the bout in the nature of a
tuneup. a chance to pick up some
easy change before a big outdoor
title defense in June. But perhaps
they are fogetting that Joe grows
.oggy with idleneSs. He hasn't had
A fight since June %.
The lone obstacle is that the
might withhold ap-
oroval of the match unless John
Henry agrees to withdraw his $780,
700 damage suit and abandon the
light heavyweight crown.
Lewis may agree to the latter
because he announced after his
uccessful title defense last Friday
light that he would prefer TO cam
'aign in the heavy ranks because
here were no opponents in the IT'S

"HOT MIX" ADVERTISING
CAMPAIGN

Orders for a four months institu-
tional newspaper advertising cam
paign beginning Sept. 1, and de-
signed to acquaint the public of
Ohio with the value of hot mix
hot laid asphalt mixtures as a paw
ing and highway salvaging material
have been released through the Of
fees of the hot mixed bituminous
industry of Ohio in Columbus. The
advertising is addressed to the cit
izens of the state as ultimate own
ers and users of streets and high
ways and invites the public to per-
sonally inspect their highways that
have been paved or salvaged with
'hot mix-hot laid asphalt mixture,
known in the division of highway
specifications as Tbs" Through
out the entire series of newspaper
advertisements special reader at
ly erected, designating the begin
paved stretches throughout the
state.
The industry's advertising plan
calls for the persistent use of two
hundred line advertising copy in a
b.
Throughout the entire series of ad-
vertisements the attention of the
taxpaying public of Ohio is directed
to the advantage and uses of hot
mix-hot laid asphalt paving, So
called "T-135.' "The general pub
lic," say leaders of the industry,
"have failed to realize that all black
surfaced paving is not ''Hot Mix"
and certainly but relatively small
percentage of the total paving
through the state is represented in
the formula "T-135" Many people,
throughout Ohio, are of the opinion
that the hot mix industry is rela-
lively new. AS matter of fact,
the industry has been in existence
and operation right here in Ohio
for more than half century,
cit is our intention in this adver-
tising effort to acquaint the news
paper reading public with the prac-
tical value of the products we are
manufacturing and the stability and
standing of the men identified with
the industry in Ohio
It has been pointed out that the
permanent hot mix manufacturing
plants located in Ohio represent an
investment that will exceed five bill
lion dollars. The forty-two plants
in the state are owned and operated
by thirty-four companies which in
clude the Muskingum Valley AS
phalt & Supply Co., GAINESVILLE.
The advertising for the hot mix
bituminous industry in Ohio has
been placed in the hands of the
Harry M. Miller advertising agency
with offices in Columbus and Gin
cinnati. The advertising is sched-
uled to start in the entire list of
newspapers during the first week of
September and will continue
throughout the balance Of the year,
