gees and perhaps even the British
fleet might very easily flee there.
II is inconceivablc that the Cana

States 10 protect them. We are
obligated TO do so. not merely on

in the long run there is only one
country in this hemisphere where
they can obtain adequate repairs,

United States. IL the British fleet
transfers its permanent base 10

This will be, an additional in
Movement for us in the present
war. We could not refuse TO re-
celve such vessels without the risk
OF losing their cooperation. They
might be sunk by their own crews.
We cannot receive them without
opposing Hitler and making it
more certain that we should be
part OF new long-range hostilities.
II Hitler wins in Europe, we can
assume that he will adopt a policy
toward the United States designed

to be added is the fact that the
largest crowd in the history of the
big game, even exceeding the $4,000
who sat III two years ago, is expected
to be present to watch the two great
squads seek to break the four and
four tie in victories. The East won
last year.
Voting begins immediately to
determine the makeup OF the two
squads and ends at midnight on
Wednesday, July Is.
The East players are to be select
ed from the teams of the Negro
National League-NeW York Black
Yankees, New York CubanS, Pitts

Louis saw his big chance. He
stalked Conn, crushed him into
pulp with another welter of
brisk, jarring rights. Bills brain

Again and again, Louis whack-

slowly retreating gladiator from
Pittsburgh and buried right
uppercut of only about four feet,
range under his already poorly
guarded chin.
Conn toppled to the resin with
a resonant thud that brought
strange hush over the nearly
$4,000 souls-all on their feet
who had, just a moment before
been virtually insane over pros
pect of one of the greatest up
sets in modern heavyweight fight
history.
Now, it was a different story,
the inevitable had come. Louis
had again displayed his fitness
to wear the heavyweight crown
The rest of the battle was a
mere formality.
Louis, after the fight, said, |

STAFF CORRESPONDENCE

NEW YORK CITY-(S N S.
Members of the New York Yankees
baseball team were gathered EN-
maSse at the Louis-COnn heavy
weight title match Wednesday night
at the Polo Grounds.
Diplomatically, few Of the play
ers wanted to be quoted as to whom
they thought would win the fight
But Red Ruffing, star pitcher Of
the Yankees, who is not regarded
too seriously as a fight fan, chimed
IN to this strain:
"Who has the punch? Louis? Well
how do you figure a guy without
the punch TO win a 15-round fight:
"I'd like to see Conn take the
title" Irish Joe Mccarthy, pilot
of the Bronx Bombers, broke in
ahead of the battle Wednesday.
Continuing, he said: mot that
Louis has not been q worthy champ
ion, and a great one, a credit to
the game But it's time for some
one else to begin getting the gravy
and being credit to the game"
Queried as to whether his own
Irish blood had not largely affect
ed his opinion, Mccarthy said
rather frankly and convincingly he
hadn't given it a thought.

NEW YORK-If you have any
doubt as to whom the credit is
due for Joe Louis spectacular
18th round kayo of Billy Conn
here Wednesday night at the
Polo Grounds, credit it to the
canny trainer of the Brown
Bomber, Jack Blackburn.
Once again, Blackburn, the
old fox, delivered with the blue
chips on the line. 1t was a mighty
gamble, too, the biggest risk
Louis ever took with the heacy-
weight title which, after Wednes-
day, had hiked his gross earnings
to more than $2,000,000.
The trick pulled by Blackburn
convinced that Conn would never
let Louis catch up with him as
long as he sensed danger, was to
have the champion play the neat
est little game of "possum" you
ever saw in the 18th round.
Louis, rushing out of his corn
er, with the speed of lightning
in all previous rounds, faxed,
struggling trifle to come off
his stool in the 18th. What is
mere he actually appeared uncer-
tain on his feet and left his chin
strangely unguarded. He threw
leather and effected purposeful
misses then when Conn found
the range repeatedly with punch
es the Bomber didn't strain to
avoid taking, Louis did the
grandest job of appearing all but
down and out you ever saw.
Conn completed the "exciting"
18th roul4d at binding speed and,
to the unsuspecting eyes of
54,487 wild eyed fans, even Louis
supporters, it appeared we had
a new champion. No other hope
seemed within the realm of rea-
son.
In his corner again after the
''crucial' 18th round, when one
Of Conn's punches that he made
in effort to block admittedly hurt
Louis, the champion was told by
Blackburn: "That's the stuff,
Joe, va got i'm coming to you
now. Go out there, Chappie, and
place the ''crusher."
Louis came out convinced Conn
had played right into his hands,
so it is recalled
Billy stormed in like hurri-
cane crowding Louis for in
fighting. Bang, bang, Louis
caught him flush against the
temple with a jolting left and
dynamite-laden right. Conn look

The greatest fight gate at the Polo
Grounds since September IA, 1923,
when Jack Dempsey and Luis Angel
Firpo attracted million dollar
response, was reeled off here this
evening.
EXPERTS WERE FOOLED
It was one of the moSI singular
of all previous Louis contests. The
experts were fooled. They said Billy
couldn't bother Louis with his al
legged powder puff punches. But at
least half dozen times in the first
IL rounds, it was that same Conn
who Whacked away at Louis optic
region trying vigorously to cut him
up and set up the one big chance
he would have to win. Make no mis-
take about it; Louis was in there
with a man for whom he gathered
disdain with each seemingly fast
terminating round, but it was man
he had to respect. Conn's business
like left thrusts were meaningful.
An element of doubt as to the out
come crept Stealthily into the issue
in ithe later rounds as Conn depart
ed from back-pedalling tactics to
storm Louis with an aggressiveness
he encountered, of late, only from
the heroic Buddy Baer.
CONN BECAME COCKY
just when it seemed a new world
champion lOOmed and deepest hyS-
terra developed every nook of this
massive National League Ball Park,
Conn's Irish blood misinformed him
He became too cocky. took too much
for granted and charged bravely
though foolshly into the supposedly
befuddled champion.
Canny Jack Blackburn and the
alert champion, if what this OBJ

and 18th bells did not miscarry
