JEWS IN
SPORTS
BY MoRRIs WIENER

shock of a fighter laying it on the
line for nothing-they're intimat-
ing that Buddy Baer. might be the
next heavyweight champion of
the world.
WHAT ABOUT BAER?
Now Buddy Baer is no pale rep
lica of his madcap brOther-Maxie
Adelbert-whO. held. the. heavy
weight title for three sIap-happy
years. Buddy is a tOp-nOtch fight
er in his own right and in any
other era but the reign of Joe
Louis might have been champion
of the prize-mOney division long,
long time ago. Any fighter-who
stands an inch over six feet five
with a punch as hard as the
younger Baer's-iS dangerous. But
Buddy has some skill as well and
this really makes him a double
threat.
In all the fights that Louis has
had in the past-including the one
with Billy Conn in which the
champion was behind in points at
the end of the thirteenth round
Conn was flattened in the next)
no man came closer to lifting
Joe's title than Buddy did in
Washington last spring. A foot,
literally and figuratively, saved
the champion when the 245 pound
Jewish challenger catapulted him
through the ropes with a murder
GUS left hook in the first round.
If JOe'S feet had not caught him
in the top strand of the ropes and
broken his flight, he might have
landed in somebody's lap at the
ringSide and there is no telling
whether he would have been able
to pull himself together in time
to return to the ring before the
10 second count had elapsed. AS
it happened, Joe wound up on the
back of his neck on the apron of
the ring-a vivid and unfOrgetable
picture-crawled through the ropes
at the count of four and went on
belabOr Buddy so violently that
the challenger could not come out
for the seventh round.
Even the end of the fight was
problematical one. The sixth
round was fought in fast and
furious fashion. Punches-hard
enough to blast an ordinary NOR
tai from here into the middle of
next week-were thrown with all
the reckless abandon of pier
brawl. What Louis gave he got
back in return. Perhaps not as
hard but Baer was putting up a
whale of a show and the sports
writers who had never figured
Buddy to go beyond the first
round were amazed to see Buddy
standing up unflinchingly as he
was doing. So hard were these
two fighting machines at it when
the bell ending the sixth round
sounded, very few of the people
let alone the ring gladiators heard
it. Seconds after the gong had
resounded and one or two OF
Louis helpers and handlers had
jumped into the ring, Joe Louis
popped one smack into the middle
of Buddy's gut and although the
big boy did not go down-he was
unable to come out for the seventh
round.
1t was whizz-bang fight. The
same performance may be duph-
Gated again come January 8.
And even if Buddy Baer does con-
tribute his possible take of the
gate approximately $25,OOO) to a
Naval Charity-Buddy wants the
title so badly, he feels anything is
worth it.

ISRAEL SPEAKS

DR.. William T. Ellis, who syndi-
Gates Sunday School lessons in the
Miami Daily News and a host OF
other Rpers, has a pet peve &.
IT is the character of Jacob in
the Bible and anyone who has
followed Ellis writings consistent
ly, may expect by now to read
over and over again that the pat
riarch was but a gross deceiver, a
schemer, a scoundrel who deprived
his brother Esau of his rights.
Well. another Christian writer,
wearying of this delineation, has
come to the rescue of our father
Jacob . . In ISRAEL SPEAKS

SCENTS the other side of the story
A Biblical scholar might not
agree with him because he goes
bevond the actual text of the
Bible. reading between the lines
But we can afford to overlook
this deficiency, if such it is.
The motive of Pope in writing
is not only to answer 1.-THE bitter
criticism of well-known public
sneakers He also voices the
hone that through the media OF
nroper Biblical Interpretation "a
new point of contact and fraternal
feeling may be found between
Hebrew and Gentle"

DR.. Finkelstein, without dis
playing Partially toward any spe-
cific branch of Judaism, treats
succiently such topics as the place
of ethics and study in Judaism,
the Sabbath and the festivals, the
basic concepts of Judaism, etc. {.
The material reads easily, virtue
not possessed by many writer's on
religious subjects.
The introduction, consisting of
but seven pages, explains the Jew
ish attitude toward other religions
It does much to clear up for
the non-Jewish reader a number
of misapprehensions that he may
have on this score Jew and
Christian alike should read it . d..
Unfortunately, our own people
many times don't know the facts.
In these trying days one could
hardly expect to pick up anything
written by a spiritual leader who
does not express himself regard
ing the future of our people i.
DR.. Finkelstein has the type of
faith which has sustained Israel
for centuries ;. He ends on this
note: 1.-THE increase of hatred
and persecution in our day does
not weaken the Jews faith in God
and in his prophets or his convic-
ton that ultimately the age of
universal brotherhood will be es-
tablished on the earth"
