The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1940-02-24

Hello folks pardon the delay
hat this correspondent has been as
busy as q Russian eating Finan-Had-
die meanwhile the Washington
Omegas trounced the 372nd basketball
stalwarts in a most interesting contest
5000 which piled up a few more ce-
menf blocks for the foundation of st.
Marks gymnasium project. . Au-
brev Townes made Helen Butler his
wife ait a very charming ceremony
and reception which was largely at
tended by friends and well-wishers -.
Count Basic took over the Roseland
State Ballroom for the Dunbar Asso-
ciatas and iammed the jitterbugs into
cauacity while the wrecking crew
rifred out the old Zone O'Clock Jump"
and that new dance sensation, "Tux-
edo Junction" Hattie Mcdaniel
was nominated for the Annual Acad-
envy Award of the Motion Picture Arts
and Sciences for the best supporting
role based on her brilliant perform
ance as Nanny" in "Gone With The
Wind Joe Louis retained his
world heavyweight title in a champ
ionehp battle with Arturo Godoy, the
Argentine strong boy, who went the
entire rout of fifteen rounds by out
foXjng the champ with his unorthodox
style and stamina Artuso has
proved one of the best sportsmen to
enter the ring and has become en-
dcared to fight fans by instilling new
life into the dying fistic industry . &.
his recent appearance on "We, the
People, with Joe Louis was much in
the nature of an old time vaudeville
act with both fighters exchanging
snappy repartee and high comedy =.
the amazing discrepancies between
the fight broadcast and the sports
writer's was further heightened by the
motion pictures of the contest which
! think you will thoroughly enjoy
Joe Louis's excuse for not knocking
out Godoy in the early stages of the
match because he feared to injure his
hands on the rock bound Uranium of
Artuso has been discussed pro and
con but Joe is perfectly right because
his dukes are his fortune and look
what happened to Henry Armstrong;
mitts. go.
