THE STORY OF THE WEEK
Open Letter 70 Joe Louis

the 9Th. Think of the impression the
many people you viii face will get
from such tour. They know you as
an athlete and it will be hard for them
to conceive of you being anything else
They're not going to take you seriously.
To be sure they will turn out in large
numbers no matter where you appear
or for what purpose but you will
run the risk of destroying their admira-
ton for speaking and fighting are
much different. Question your associ-
ates on this business, and make certain
that they aren't trying to use your
prestige and good name for their own
selfish end.
Think of the many people who have
followed you all through your fstic
career. They might not think so much
of your decision to campaign for your
candidate. They might not all be good
sports, Joe, and may take to staying
away from your fights as a means to
express their displeasure. You wouldn't
want that to happen, nor would count
less others but it's possibility.
Think of those countless kind who
admire you and aspire to duplicate you
in living. What a black-eye it will be
to them to hear the bad things that pass
between political camps. The kids
know you now as a winner, a straight
shooter their Champ. All that can be
lost in the shuttle of just few days of
active campaigning It's not going to
be worth it. You've got what a lot of
athletes yearn to have .. the respect
and admiration of the kids. And in
turn you have been giving them some
thing they always want winner
Don't gamble with either, Joe . they
can give you something politics can't
Hoping that you will reconsider your
decision to campaign for a political
candidate and remain one of our cru
saders against intolerance and discrimi-
nation in sport.
Hoping that you will feel with so
many of us sport writers in the country
that you are more necessary to the
great game of SPORT rather than
politics and stay with us
I wish to remain,
Sincerely,

cano, lost by default to Steve Kronis
for the title.
Beckles, one of the better light
weights of the past season, appeared to
be out of condition. He tired very
easily and toward the middle of the
second round showed signs Of fading.
1t was an unusual thing to see Beckles
in such condition for his campaign
ing in the past has always been marked
by his splendid condition
Heard stepped right out in front in
his semi final bout against Toscano and
piled up a comfortable lead in the first
two rounds and coasted through the
final stanza to victory At the start
of the third round, Heard received a
hard smash over his eye, one of the
'lucky punch" variety, but it did suffi-
cient damage TO keep him from appear
ing in the final against Kronis. 1t was
lust one of those unfortunate occur
rences that have a way of cropping up
now and then in the ring. Heard, had
the doctors okeyed him, would have
probably gone on to win the title in his
class for Kronis, although he won by
a knockout, was not too impressive.

Lou Dunning, the Milton South

plumb bashful about his batting records
that his mother had to give me the
GUARDIAN story last week. Pro-
vided Hitler doesn't move in, the pres

ten colored players entry into the

Dunning should keep on hoping. &.
Rumor has it that Dolly King, the
giant L. l. .. basketball star, has just
about been signed up by the n. Y.
Rens for next year. o.. King and Sidat-
Singh will give the Rens two brilliant
new stars. incidentally, Singh's
real birth name is Webb and he was
born U.S.A. and never saw Asia.
Singh fooled a lot of white sports
writers but almost every colored
sportswriter was "hep" from the be-
ginning. Chuck Thomas, the B. ..
sensational colored halfback, will play
today before home-state Ohio fans
while it looks as if Ray Guild will be
saved more or less for next year by
Harvard. Guilds only game to
date was VS.. Michigan, the toughest
team on the Crimson schedule.
