est Since Der Max

Simon doesn't have the night
ing equipment ever to lick Louis.
His best hand last night was
the left--a quick, worrisome
weapon, but not damaging one.
He pushes his right without
snap or venom.
Like Bob Pastor, who met
Louis at Briggs Stadium two
years ago, Simon could have
produced an amazing upset had
he been able TO punch. In the
fourth. fifth, six and tenth
rounds he was the aggressor
and more than held his own with
the tan leopard.
Abe actually laid a glove on
the champion more times than
any fighter has done since that
fateful June night of 1886 when
Joe was battered into submission
by Max Schmeling, the black
browed Teuton.
For his game, history-making
stand, Schmeling, too, received a
payoff--a second chance at Louis.
Louis, his pride injured almost
beyond repair. came close to
breaking the body of the Ger
man in half before the fight was
hardly under way.
Abe last night handed the
Brown Bomber a swollen, ugly
black left eye. This was some
thing that seemed to irritate Joe
in the dressing room, although
he didn't dwell on the subject
too long.

Abe Simon last night under the

more punches from Joe Louis
than any man the champion has
ever faced. He was still on his
feet after one minute and 2(
seconds of the thirteenth round
when Referee Sam Hennessey
stopped the fight.
Simon was knocked down -four
times, twice for a nine count in
this thirteenth round. and Louis
in the seventh round alone hii
him with enough rights and lefts
to chop down a concrete silo.
For this amazing show OF
courage, Abe Simon late last
night smiled through cracked
and pulled lips when his jabber'
ing, shrewd little m AM ger

courage you showed tonight,
