With booming voice, jutting jaw
military figure, General Hugh Sam
uel Johnson is striking parsonage
Today his nickname is "Old Iron
Pants" In his West Point days and
later in the army, he was called
fluffy.
Tough he is. But he is not devoid
of sentiment or of learning. Who's
Who lists General Johnson as sol
der, lawyer and manufacturer. But
while he was still a young man,
doing army service in the Philip
pines, he was writing books of fic-
ton for boys. He also wrote maga-
zine stories. He has a native gift
for words, and he writes as he
speaks, with bluntness, yet with pic
turesqueness, and often with humor
and apt illusions from the classics
and the Bible.
The general was born August 5,
1882, of old pioneer stock on an
American frontier amid Indians and
buffaloes at Fort Scott, Kansas. As
a boy he lived in Oklahoma among
Cherokees, Choctaws, and Com
anches. He ran away to enlist with
the Rough Riders in 1898, but his
father caught up with him and
brought him home. Then came
West Point, service at Fort Clark
Texas, at San Francisco during the
earthquaks, in the Philippines, and
back in the U. S. under General
Enoch Crowder. Crowder advised
him to study law for the legal de-
partment of the army and made il
possible for him to do so at the Uni
versity of California. In 1916, John
son was with Pershing in the chase
after Villa.
Now came the World War. Re-
called to Washington by General
Crowder, Captain Johnson wrote the
first drafts of what was to become
the draft law. He also sat in as q
member of the War Industries
Board, aiding it's chairman, Bernard
Baruch, in organizing American in
dustry under the war codes. 1t was
this training that brought him years
afterward the appointment as NRA
administrator.
After the war, johnson engaged
for Is years in private business, first
in the manufacture of plows and
other farm implements as chairman
of the board of the Moline Plow Co..
and later as head of the research
staff of Bernard Baruch.
1t is from a background of ex-
perience in war strategy, business
industry, law, and governmental
work that the general today writes
his column. Added to this back
ground of experience is his absolute
independence of party and of fac.
ton, and his talent to coin phrases
that capture the nations imagina'
ton. A blunt, colorful person, Gen
eral Hugh S. Johnson writes q
blunt, colorful column. His opinions
are, of course, his own.

This pattern CNo. 1868 proves
that the popular bolero is an ex-

it's correctly designed. The dress,

you a long, lean line, and it's
very soft and graceful. You'll like
it even without the bolero, and with
the bolero it's perfect for summer

trast add a note of sophistication
without detracting from the clean
cut simplicity so becoming to ma

cially smart in spun rayon, fat crepe
or sheers.

by a youthful. frilly. high-necked

the tailored bolero and you have a
love of street suit, pretty with big
hats, little hatsAall kinds Of hats.
With suspender skirt and bolero
of fiat crepe, thin wool or silk print
and two or three blouses--dimity,

TODAY'S SPORT PARADE

were spent watching Pastor work
four rounds agains two men with
styles similar to Conns as can be
found in sparring partner ranks.
Pastor never has seen Conn fight.
He purposely avoids watching a fu-
ture opponent fight another man.
He won't even look at movies of
such fight. He says no man
fights the same fight twice and
that there is no use planning an
attack or defense ahead of time.
and that if you do, it may prove
a disadvantage.
Pastor has been told plenty about
Conn, however. That is apparent
IN the attack he is using on his
sparringpartners. 1t is aimed chief
ly at the body. where the spidery
Conn is weakest. The Pittsburgh
boy may as we'll prepare himself
for plenty of right hand shots to
the heart. Both Pastor and his
manager, Jimmy johnson, talk long
and often of knockout. johnson
was all over stillman's distributing
mimeographed sheets on which were
listed all the men whose chances Of
fighting Louis for the title were
spoiled by defeats by Pastor. Ray
Impellittiere, Bob Nestell,. Lbu Nova,
Chuck Crowell, AL Mccoy, Make
Rosenbloom, Maurice Strickland and
RoScoeS TOles were among those
listed on this sheet of broken dreams
and battered noses.
Pastor still talks of another meet
ing with Louis, despite his two
lickings by the champion. He talks
lightly, almost gaily of their De-
troit meeting, in which Pastor hit
the floor four times in the first
round.
Maybe he isn't standing the heat
of Stillmans as well as I thought
he was.
Imperial Valley press., 1940-08-06
BY HENRY McLEMORE

NEW YORK, Aug. 6-UP)-It's
great temptation to pick Bob
Pastor to beat Billy Conn next
Tuesday night for no better reason
than that Pastor is training for
the fight in Stillman's gymnasium.
Right now, in the month of Aug
ust, searching party composed of
Karl Baedeker, Rand McNally and
Burton Holmes couldn't find a
more unattractive spot, a more un-
comfortable spot, than Stillman's
gymnasium, one flight up from
Eighth avenue where it crosses 54th
street.
If it's 80 on the street it's 100
in Stillman'S. If it's croWed at
the rush hour on Eighth avenue,
is much more crowded in Stillman's.
I went there looking for Pastor
yesterday, and after 20 minutes I
was almost pulmotor case. 1t
was a shock, to man accustomed
to breathing air all his life, to
step into the place and start breath
ing the combination of cigar and
cigarette smoke, resin dust. and
liniment fumes they use for air
there. There are one or two small
windows in the gym but they are
always completely filled by men
wearing caps and talking out of
the corners of their mouths.
Under the dim glow of electric
lights that accentuate rather than
dispel the gloom, little men, big
men, black men, yellow men, white
men, and men with Dashed noses,
disfigured ears, and men with va
cant stares. skip rope. punch the
bag, shadow box, spar with one
another, snort and grunt and heave.
In and out among the fighters
weave managers, trainers, gamblers,
seconds and all of the strange assort-
ment of characters who make up
the fringe of boxing. In same rs
or 100 chairs sit shirt-sleeved, seat
ing on-lookers, who pay twenty-five
cents to be a part, for time at
least, of this pugilistic potpourri.
Pastor is training at Stillman's
because he can not afford camp
in the country, but because of sup
erstition. He trained at Stillman's
for many of his early successful
fights and feels that the place
brings him good luck. My personal
feeling is that it isn't luck the gym
brings him, but a feeling that af-
ter surviving three weeks at Still
mans. he can withstand any hard
ship the ring might have to offer
