Godoy Developing New Fight
Style For Bout With Louis

! I'm other words, Manager Al
WE'LL pointed out, whichever style
Louis expects from Godoy-he'n
get the other one."
He worked both ways today and
the experts" who were on hand
found ony one flaw in his armor.
He appears to get tagged quite
a bit by left hooks to the body, a
punch Louis has been working on
considerably in his training. But
both Arturo and his Manager, Al
WE'LL, insist this is deceptive from
outside the ring-that he really
catches most Of these blows on his
elbow and forearm. 's9sn'''''
One thing stands out about Co
doy more than his accent. He is
as strong as old cheese and in far
better condition than the last time
he tangled with the boss man OF
the ring. On that occasion, he was
just getting over a heavy cold
which has confined him to bed.
In his five weeks here he has
done $50 miles of road work and
has boxed u rounds. He will have
only n more sparring session, at
most.
His strength impressed even the
most cold-eyed of the boxing men
around today. Jimmy Johnston, the
fight manager, predicted today If
Louis doesn't get Arthuro in an
early round the heavyweight
crown stands a very good chance
of taking a boat ride south.

Nongot Tribesmen Kill

MANILA, June 17-Monday)-
R-Ilongot tribesmen took the war;
path again today, killed three
women and wounded a man in a
small village in the wild cordillera
mountains.
Reports Of the raid were sent
here by Philippine constabulary Of
fcers who asked that they be sent
reinforcen4ents to hunt down the
slayers.
Investigators said they believed
the head-hunting foray raj in re-

BY SID FEEDER

CARMEL, N. Y, June 6-R-
Arturo Godoy admitted today thai
"Arturo-he ees no suckair".
Arturo has a date in Yankee
stadium Thursday with Joe Louis,
with the heavyweight Championship
OF the world at stake. Four months
ago, Godoy befuddled Louis for Is
rounds with his crouching. weav.
ing squat tag type Of ring work.
Most folks expect Arturo to come
right back with the same style,
land they figure the bomber has
learned how to solve it. AS a re-
suit, the general opinion is Godoy
will be walking into a couple of
buzz saws.
And that's why the one = time
fisherman from Chile is laughing
that he is by no means a ''suckair"
That Louis, he explained after
going over a pair Of sparmates
for four rounds at his training
camp here, He figure I crouch
the same way and then know what
to do thees time. Well, I can fight
different, too. And maybe Joe get
a surprise.
The inference was that the
South American way" may be
changed somewhat from the game
Of squat tag" Of last winter, in
which Godoy dropped a split deci-
sion. to a more stand-up style, in
which the Chilean will crowd Louis
continually, keeping on top Of him
all the time and giving him no
'tpunchig ROOM.

gram, he was asked whether pre-
paredness work for the government
would interfere with regular auto
mobile production. He replied:
II see no reason to get hysterical
about preparedness, nor why our
part in it should interfere with
our regular production-unless, OF
course, supplies of raw materials
are curtailed, and there appears
no immediate prospect of that
happening.
I'm fact, America can be pre-
pared for all emergencies before

Get Nightcap, 81

BOSTON, June 10 @RE Int
Chicago Cubs earned an ever
break in their four.garle series
with the Boston Bees by splitting
a double header today, dropping
the opener, 5 to 4, in eleven inn
ings through sloppy defense play,
but taking the second game, 8 to l.
An eight run outburst in the
sixth inning and Claude Passeau's
fjve-hit pitching decided the night
cap.
The opener was a see-saw con-
test, with the Cubs getting off or

manager Gabby Hartnett's first
homer of the year with Billy Her.

Moore doubled home a run for the
bees in the third, and Boston went
ahead with two more in the seventh

sacrifice.
Chicago regained the lead with
two in the eight, but allowed the
Bees to deadlock the count again
IN the ninth through a poor defense
play. Cooney, batting for Rowell,
walked to open the inning and was
sacrificed to second. Then, after
Miller flied out, Billy Herman
threw wild on Joe Sullivar's
grounder, the bail hitting the
pitcher in the face and bounding
off while Cooney scored the tying

while the work gets on the nerves
