The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-07-18
By DILLON GRAHAM SLgrts Editor, AP Feature Service

NEW YORK, July 18-Lou Nova says his September heavyweight championship fight with Joe Louis won't go more than two or three rounds.
 "We1l get together pretty quickly and start punching he says. "Then, someone's got to fall.
 q think it's gonna be Joe"
 I'm sure Joell go down." says Ray Carlin, Lou's manager. Gosh, I'm as sure of Lou winning now as I am that the sun will rise tomorrow.
 T had few little doubts. be- fore the Conn bout but no more. Goodness, that powder puff punch CT had Louis groggy. Think what Leu will do to him. Boy, Lou would have knocked him stiff if he had had him that night" Ray said.
 Lou Won't Cover
 "All those other boys cover be- fore Joe when they're hit. Lou won't cover. He comes back slug

JUNEAU BOY E SLATED TO WIN
 AQUApLANE RACE
Los Angeles Herald Says Donald Clark Is Best s Bet in Big Race
H. -C--gN

Donald Clark, a Juneau boy, has been named in the Los Angeles Her aid as standing a very good chance of winning the annual Catalin-Her- mosa Manhattan Beach aquaplane race to be run on August 3. He is the son of Mrs. w. A. Montgomery of Juneau.
 Clark is a former Empire news boy and went through the grade school here. He finished higa school at Redondo Beach, Calf He return ed to the Territory and attended the University of Alaska and studied architecture. After leaving the uni versity Clark worked in this city for Juneau Motors.
 In February the youth went south to enlist in the Army but he applied for work in the Douglas airplane factory just to see if he could get a job and landed one in the drafting department. His position is in an essential industry and exemption
 
 from military service has been re- quested.
 The aquaplane artist is now at tending Santa Monica Junior Col lege and working nights.
 Juneau citizens may remember five or six years ago seeing Clark performing on his aQuaplane behind an airplane.
 The article from the California newspaper is as follows:
 Trained by the icy water of the Alaskan Bay, Donald Clark from Ju- neau, Alaska, is here to win the Catalin -Hermosa Manhattan Beach aquaplane race on August 3, accord ing to Cliff Willets, General Chair man of the seventh running of the Ross Channel race.
 Slight, but sinewy, Clark closely resembles Bob Brown, present worlds titleholder. Taking the first ride in Southern California's waters yesterday, Clark expressed belief that the hazards of the 44-mile course had been greatly overrated. The water is warmer, the air is warm and the aquaplane much i'm proved over those used in Alaska, declared Clark.
 Whether or not the dark, curly haired Alaskan boy can make his boast good remains to be seen, ac- cording to those who watched him ride. Clark has not yet teamed up with a pilot and boat, though an announcement is expected this week from George Harper, entry chair man."

tonight at the First Methodist Church on the use of the Bible in everyday life. With his address, he will show number of colored slides.
 As a representative of the Am erhan Bible Society, the Rev. Bay less is travelling in Alaska and has visited a number of the coast towns. While in Juneau he is speaking to audiences on five oc- casions.
 The organization which the Rev. Bayless is representing has an in ternational scope, having affilia- tions in 45 foreign countries. In it's 125 years of work, the Society has distributed approximately s. 100000 volumes of the Scriptures every year. These volumes are pulp lished in 1059 different languages and dialects.
 The Society carries on it's func- tions through four main channels: translation, publication, distribu- ton. and special volumes for the blind. The latter are either sold at fraction of their cost, or given freely. as the organization is not commercial one.
 During the past year of nation al emergency, the Society has taken over the work of branches in II foreign areas, as well as raising $100,00O to provide copies of the Scriptures to foreign populations. and to the Army camps in the United States. The War Depart ment has erected 600 new chapels in the camps, and the American Bible Society has furnished an ap- propriate pulpit Bible for each of these. It has also provided Bibles for all the new Navy ships being ] built. d
 The whole purpose of the Soci- ety, according to the Rev. Bayless, is to provide the Scriptures when-a ever and wherever they are needed.

ging and carries the fight to you
 Anyone will tell you that Max Baer is a harder one-punch hitter than Louis. He isn't as good a finisher and he won't hit you IS many times but blow for blow he hits harder than Joe. And Lou took his best shots, didn't he? He not only took them but he pound- ed Max heavily, cut him up and scored technical knockouts over him.
 If he can take Baer's punches, he can take Joes Sunday pitch.
 And what about Joe? Well he won't be able to take Lou's blows. He has shown that he doesn't take a blow any too well But those who have hit and hurt him either didn't follow up or, like Conn, didn't have quite enough .power to kayo him.
 "Lou'll Do It"
 Lou will hurt him and he'll be all over him punching for t h [ knockout" Ray said.
 Yeah, it shouldn't go more than three rounds" Nova agrees.

Ap FEATURE SERVICE

NEW ORLEANS, July 18-No- sody's heard lately from Old Black Joe, but if the nanny singers are worried about the supply of south ern mammies running out, they can forget about it. The streets of New Orleans are positively cluttered with them-in bright bandanas and girghams, with neat white aprons.
 For years no southern novel, play Gr movie has been complete with out the heroine's nanny" prefer lbly stout and fussy, with a heart of gold beneath an ebony skin. Shop owners in New Orleans old French Quarter, capitalizing more and more on shoals of tourists, now are making Negro mammies part of their business.
 A shop selling pralines, the de- licious confection of brown sug- ar and oceans, began it. Mammies n checked ginghams, wearing the traditional ban dana headband, made the pralines while visitors watched. A dummy nanny of cotton was placed outside the door.
 Then praline shop across St. Peter Street went it's rival one bet CT. It installed a real, live nanny, moking corncob pipe. The idea :aught on, and now there are man. mics, or stuffed cotton limitations, Ill up and down the Quarter.

I've said for three years that I would become heavyweight cham pion. Nothing has ever made me change my mind. I'm more sure of it now than ever before.
