 New York, April l4-(UP)--The Honorable Robin Pastor-president, vice president, secretary, treasurer and only member of the T want to fight Joe Louis third time" club has departed on another expedi- ton to the midlands for the ex- press purpose of reaftiming his ranking as the second best heavy weight boxer in the world.
 With the taciturn James Joy Johnston ringing bells, blowing bugles and honking horns at the head of the parade, the pastor en- tourage was last seen casting anchor at Cleveland. Tn that city the Hon. Robin will attempt to pick up where he left of with Lem Franklin q few weeks ago. This time he will exchange scowls with one Jimmy Bivins.
 The pleasure Of meeting young MT. B. has never been mine, but I am told that he Is a) 6 negro youth, and B) c boy who is rapidly rising in hsi trade. If the ii1forma- ton Is correct on both counts, my advice to MT. B. is htat he will be both happier and healthier on Sat. urday morning if he doesn't kep his scheduled date on Friday even- ing.
 This advice is not to be Inter- ureted as an aSpcrslon against Bi- wins reliability as e prize fighter. Tine boy must be competent to have defeated Billy Soose and light heavy champ, Gus Lesnevich. But you have to be much bettre than good against the Hon. Robin, or you are certain to develop a headache very early and retire before l0:30 D, m.
 Bad News
 As an irritant, he is more persiSt- ent than women drivers, Jersey mosquitos or the pass moochers who descended today upon colleague Jack Cuddy for tickets to the ball game. He is a combination of the night before payday, the common cold and a flagging mother-in-law. In short, his nuisance value is lIn- limited, unmatched and completely unsurpassed.
 To colored boys, he is particularly devagting. A number Of years ago Harry Wills created so much havoc among white fighters he was nick named the "Black Shadow" If I'm not stretching 8 point, Pastor has qualified for similar title--ir re- verse. If there Is any such thing as q White Shadow" the amazing Hon. Robin wins the title.
 He has spoiled the careers of many white boys, but he has done his best against the many negroes who rose from the ranks. Back in 1889 he broke the bubble of Tiger Warrington. Five months later he ended the menace of Roscoe Toles. Tn Hollywood last year I twice saw him pin back the ears of the men, acing Turkey Thompson
 Last November the boys around Chicago were lauding tho prowess of Booker Beckwith. Pastor went west and Beckwith thereafter went nowhere. Then came the Hon. Ro- bins peak performance. He appear cd il Cleveland against Franklin and he broke tho biggest bubble to appear on the American scene since the rubber shortage bit Sally Rand.
 This is mere history but 1t is worth repeating for the sake of MT. Biyl1s because histroy has the nasty habit of repeating oftener than the New York Yankees. In fact, 1t quite probably will repeat again on Friday night to the embarrassment Of Brother BiVing, his manager and the promotorWho once again will find he has lost Q drawing card.
 Better With Age
 l say this because 1 saw Pastor finish his local training at the Still- man gym anl he never was better, He worked with a zip and sock that was Bartling to see in a boxer who has been around for the better part Of seven years, who has been q party to 50 fights, who is 28 years old and who fought Louis twice and survived 10 tell the boys about 1t.
 Today the Hon. Robin is smarter than he was five years ago, he hits harder and he is better conditioned. He has lost little of his speed and none of his amazing ability to re- cuperate from a punch. He is still strong and sturdy where 1t counts 1nost-iSl the legs. And he is headed towards his third Joust with the MT. Big of the division.
 Now that Pastor has found the high road back to another title bout he ilas no intention of being side tracked at . way station, as Mir. Viving soon will learn. Maybe the Hon. Robin can defeat Louis the third time around and maybe he can't, but you could hardly blame him for trying-at something like AOg nnn asaA stya saAp tes,
