Louis Plans 60
Awry as Godoy
Bout Cancelled

NEW YORK. Feb. 20 CUP) -
Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis
may be forced to change his fight
a-month campaign into an eXhbi-
ton tour because of last-minute
developments among his scanty and
questionable opposition.
Last night Promoter Mike Jacobs
announced that the contracted
third-meeting between Louis and
Arturo Godoy OF Chile-scheduled
for April IS at LOS Angeles-was
cancelled definitely
This announcement came right in
the wake Of the Detroit story that
Chairman John j. Hettche of the
Michigan boxing commission would
investigate thoroughly the propos-
ed title tilt between Louis and Big
Abe Simon, scheduled for Detroit
on March 81 before sanctioning it.
Meanwhile. the state senate ju-
dietary committee at Harrisburg,
Pa, appointed q subcommittee to
consider proposals of an investiga-
ton into Monday nights abbreviat-
ed braWl between Louis and Gus
Dorazio at Philadelphia.
Imperial Valley press., 1941-02-20

The defeat wound up the season
for Holtville and left the Vikings
with a record of no wins, ten losses.
Calexico also wound up its Class
B league campaign with a l5-l1 vic
tory over the Holtville Eighties The
win gave the Bulldog Bees the iden-
tical undefeated record posted by
the CaleXico varsity.
Other league games remaining to
be played this week, match FL Gen.
tro against Brawley at Brawley on
Friday night and Imperial against
Calipatria at Imperial Friday al
ternoon.
Only interest in Fridays games is
attached to the Glass c battle be-
tween Imperial and Calipatria. Cali
patria is leading the league at the
present time with only one loss
marked against its record. A win for
the northenders Friday will give
the Hornets the title. An Imperial
victory, however. would deadlock
the Calexico and Calipatria cagers
for first place.
Calexico Gees maintained their
chance to tie for the loop lead by
defeating El Centre Gees, 26-l4,
afternoon. The defeat
was the ninth in succession for the
Spartan Eighties. Ray Muncill was
high scorer for the losers with five
points.

continue through Sunday.
Golfers will play them "aS they
lie" in the tournament this year
with only few exceptions, Herring
said. In the past winter rules have
been enforced but the tournament
committee judged the fairWays sui
ficiently robust that on Improvement
of lies will be necessary.
Only exception will be when the
ball lies on irrigation borders IN
players own fairWay. In that event
the ball may be lifted back and
dropped over the players shoulder,
no closer to the hole. This is only
when the ball rests in players own
fairWay, however. II outside play
er's own fairWay but in another
fairWay, the ball must be played
as it lies.
Herring called attention to four
penalty bitches on the course. The
ditch paralleling No. fairway on
the south, No. Oh the east, No.
on the south and the ditch run
ming behind No. 2 green and close
to No. 4 green will be played as
hazards. The ball may be played out,
but if it is lifted out the penalty
IS one stroke.
In some cases, the ditch running
east and west across No 8, No. IA,
and No 13 will be a hazard. Balls
may be dropped out without pen
atty.
The ditch in front of No. 13
will also be played as penalty haz-
ard, but the ditch in front of No.
IA green, as we'll as in front Of No.
II green, will not be. Players also
may lift without penalty from the
ditch in front of No. 8 green, but
not from the ditch in front of No.
Is tee. In all cases, if a player is
out of his own fairWay bitches will
be hazards.
Part of the array of trophies for
this years tournament was on dis
play at the clubhouse this week
They will remain on exhibit until

recovery since No. 7 with gains of

over a broad list. Volume increased
in the early trading but lightened
later and the total was around that

The principal reason for the
strength in stocks was an improved

yesterdays resistance to pressure

the market had been oversold and
hence was in a position to recover
substantially, given the proper in

You remember his feat of last
October Called from his rocking
chair as third base coach, when the
death of Fershberger and the in
jury to Lombardi rendered the Reds
catcherless, Jimmy, the ancient
one, stole not only base but the
whole show itself, with a magnifi-
cent bit of catching.
1T liked TO have killed me-" he
admits. Il still ache a little bit
from the effort, and there was a
while, right after the series, when
I was SO sore it was even money
bet I couldn't get out of bed"
But he doesn't regret it.
Who Would?" he asks.
Il did my part in winning the
worlds championship for the Reds
an extra $4,000 or so for myself
and I suppose you will have to give
the series credit for getting me
this job with the Cubs"
Managing isn't new TO Wilson
although coaching a strong, solvent
club is. He was boss of the Phil
lies from 1884 to 1893, inclusive
and the Phillies sell players a,
soon as they prove themselves ca.
pable of helping the club.
Wilson figures the Cubs have {
rousing chance to win the Nationa
League pennant this year. No
that he doesn't respect the othe
teams in the league, because h
does, especially the Reds. He know
them after two years as coach ant
has the highest regard for them
They'll be tough as boot leather,
he says of the Reds. They hav
tremendous confidence, as they ar
bound to have after knocking of
the American League champions
and their pitching will be of tn
highest class"
asked Jimmy if the Reds figur
ed TO have as good pitching as the
did last year.
Sure. Why not? Walters is jus
coming into his full power an
Derringer is strong as a horse"
Wilson is certain of one regula
starter on his club this year. That
Novikoff, the man who bears tn
delightful nickname of the Ma
Russian"
Il never have seen Novikoff,
Wilson said but 1 have hear
enough about him. Everybody tel
me he is terrific, both as playe
and as a personality. That's tn
kind I go for. The team can us
color and it can use an outfielde
who can knock the fences down
And Novikoff would seem to b
that combination"
AS for his other publcized rooki,
the second baseman, Stringer, h
believes he will make strong bi
for an infield berth.
"All l know is this Jimmy sale
IF Stringer is good enough TO bea

Fight Developments -.
All these poStponements, cancel
latlons and Investigations of the
so-called fight-a month club Spon-
sored by Joe Louis and troupe, may
seriously hamper the Bombers prep
arations for his most important title
defense against Billy Conn in June.
Louis needs serious activity like
the morning glory needs dew. No
lust for gold has made him the
busiest champion in heavyweight
history. His handlers, the smartest
who ever guided the destinies of
any champion, learned back in
1886 that Louis must be in action
continually TO produce.
And it is no secret, behind the
boxing scenes, that the Louis en-
tourage regards the elusive Conn as
the most dangerous opponent the
Detroit Negro ever encountered,
despite Billy's lack of punch and
poundage. Blackburn, Black and
Roxhorough realize that Louis,
though the most destructive punch
er the ring has ever known, still
is a one-styled thinking. shut
fling performer who could be out
witted as easily as a child. unless
he is razor sharp.
So the handlers have tried to
keep Joe active, and never in the
history of fightdom has cham
pion been subjected TO such an ar
duous grooming as Louis, as he
preps for Conn. Five title fights
in five months was the tuneup pro-
gram. before Joe should have start
ed training in May for Conn.
Three of them went through-Mc
Coy, Burman and DoraZio.
But now the April tilt with Go
doy is out, and the March engage
ment with Abe Simon is uncertain.
Louis, meanwhile, must find some
action to continue his preps for the
Conn meeting, because the men who
know the inside of boxing say Louis
is beginning TO slip. And Conn is
probably the niftiest boxer to enter
the heavyweight division since the
DAY OF Gene Tunney, the man who
busted the Dempsey myth.

at the LOWRY Hotel in st.
Paul the Association has the
privilege of celebrating one of
its most useful years at the

18th anniversary.
Notable among the current
projects of the Association is
Save 100 Lives" Committee.
Their purpose is to so crystal
ize interest in Minnesota on
highway safety that the total
highway accident deaths will
be reduced by 100 during a
IL month period. Inaugurated
in September 1910 progress
was already noted by Deem
Der 18th. The number of
fatalities in 1889 was 574,
whereas the total for 1910 in
the state is 554.
The committee budgeted its
task so many for each month.
An unusually favorable rec.
ord in December, with only 33
deaths against &c up to De-
cember %, 1889, which made
up for a less favorable record
in November. Results for the
first four months are as fol-

The Minnesota Editorial
Association represents 465
Minnesota weekly and daily
newspapers banded together
for mutual assistance and CO.
operation. A staff of nine
people, with offices in the
Palace Building in Minneapo-
lis look after the interests of
the Publishers spread through
out the state.
The duties of the Mime
sofa Editorial Association are
varied but in general include
Publicity Control, Clipping
Service, Clearing house for
all newspapers for various re-
quests from member newspa-
pers, personal visits by the
Field Manager and assistance
in providing speakers for mer-
chant and civic groups as
well as help in merchandise
ing and advertising.
Perhaps the most important
activity of the Association is
the assistance given the pub
fishers in National Advertis-
ing Promotion. AS one large
national advertiser said re-
Gently, You can't ignore the
two million people that live
outside the limits of the three
large metropolitan cities of
the state and the state news
papers that serve them.
In this area the retail mer.
chants do fifty per cent of
the retail business of Mime
sofa, the residents have over
half the telephones and one
third of the electric meters.
These folks elect over seventy
per cent of our legislators,
constitute the majority of di.
rect taxpayers, the majority
of Minnesota home owners,
the majority of church goers.
In fact they just about hold
the balance of power in our
state"
The Minnesota Editorial AS
ISOLATION constantly calls the
attention of national adver
tiSerS to the fact that the
