Louis in for Trouble
In Scrap With Abe,
Johnston Roars
Wearing 27-Ounee Mitts
Challenger Shows Neon

BY SID FEEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


SUMMIT, N. j., March l7.--Begin-
ming with James Joy Johnston's
voice-the big wind under the derby
hat-everything around Ample Abe
Simon's training camp up here IN
the north Jersey hills is big.
Naturally, James joys voice is the
biggest of all. That situation Is z
to 5 in any book any time the re-
formed boy bandit is in the neigh
borhood. The sound of the fury
even out-sizes Ample Abe himself,
.and that's no soft touch when you
stack up against a dainty 2oo-
FOUNDER.
Abe's paws are so huge he has to
wear training gloves weighing a
mere 27 ounces each instead OF the
conventional 16. Put head-boaroS
and wooden blankets on them ana
they resemble twin beds. Ordi-
narilv fighters drink water from a
Quart bottle between rounds. Abe
takes his swig from a magnum-
sized jar. Johnston insists this Is
not because the others so smal
he's afraid his gladiator would ac-
cidentally swallow the bottle.
Johnston Under Full Steam.
But somehow when you talk OF
the stylish size of things In these
parts, you always come back 10
James joys tremendous jawing.
And. brother, he's really under full
head of steam as time draws near
for Abie's return rassle with Joe
Louis for the Army emergency re-
lief fund in Madison Square Garden
a week from Friday.
OF course, you always try to duck
when James Joy is in this condition.
It's not contagious, mind you, but
the wind is something fierce. How
ever, after watching Abe go through
several fairly Snappy rounds using
a left hand that resembles a cross
between a California redwood and
the front end of a truck, and COM
pairing him with the slow, numbering
giant who went 13 rounds with the
Bomber year ago, you're willing
to give James Joy half an ear any
way.
Just look at that left" he will
holler, the derby bouncing up and
down with excitement. You can't
very well overlook Abe's portside
poke. When he sticks it out, it's
the only thing visible for miles.
Simon Appears Improved.
why" Jimmy adds, Hes great.
He's so much faster and steadier
than he was year ago he looks
like two other guys. Yes sir, Louis
was a greater fighter and a great
champ, and it's too bad he has to
reach the end of the road now,
But I can't think of a. nicer guy
to knock him off than my Able.
"Just look at him punching there
with those 27-ounce gloves. Think
how light and free his armsn feel
when he's wearing only those g.
ouncers a week from Friday in the
fight. can't bear to think of what
he'll do to Joe"
Along about this time, Jimmy's
Just warming up, so you head for
the nearest storm cellar. What you
take with you is the thought that
Jimmy hasn't changed bit. But
you also get the idea that while
Abie's best chances of beating Louis
would be to carry a ball bat and
a 30-30 rifle into the ring with
him, he still has improved enough
over his Detroit stand of 1941 to
last quite a way with the Bomber
After all, you can't blame guy for
trying.

Ceiling Aid
BY WILLIAM 8. NEAL

day delayed Senate passage OF a
bill expanding borrowing power of

The authority contained In the
measure TO make subsidy pay

production, processing or distribu-
ton of any article" brough [
charges that the whole scheme of

Senator Arthur Vandenberg (R)

provides authority TO subsidize
wages.
This Il an example OF the
difficulty we get into In fixing
prices without fixing wages, an
important part of the cost OF
production" said Vandenberg.
While conceding that broa d
power over wages is granted by
the bill, Brown said the measure
was not intended to subsidize
salaries. He criticized government
agencies for failure 10 heed direc-
ton in the price control law to
stabilize wages.
"T think that administrative
authority has failed TO use the
power and discretion given the
War Labor Board by the price

ton TO stabilize wages. I think
the President has intimated that
II should be done, and I believe
that IL IL contemplated"
