abdication of the throne on the
day he originally was scheduled to
make his 22nd defense against Billy
Conn in a return battle. The fight
was cancelled at direction of Secre-
tary of War Henry L. Stimson.
Jolting Joe explained that the
war and his increasing years had
rung down the curtain on his car
eer. At 28, the man who had de-
veloped from an Alabama planta-
ton pickaninny into one of the
rings greatest fighting machines,
said he was hanging up his gloves.
He said:
by the time I'll be out of the

too old for a champion. I'm too old
now"
IN EXHIBITION
Louis, who participated in an ex-
hibition drill here yesterday with
the Fort Riley, Kan, cavalry team,
eVinced little emotion at quitting
the business of leather tossing in
which his purses during eight years
totaled approximately $2,228,000.
1T doesn't make much difference,
now, l guess" Louis said.
Although Sergeant Joe declined
to amplify this statement, he refer
red apparently to the recent order
from StimSon which cancelled the
LouiS-Conn bout for army relief
when he learned that both fighters
were to be paid. No army boxers
will be permitted to fight for profit,
henceforth.
Promoter Mike Jacobs, who had
staged all of Bomber Joe'S import
ant bouts, was informed of the re-
tirement at his Rumson, N. j., es-
tate. Jacobs said the retirement
didn't surprise him much.
To tell you the truth, 1 thought
he quit the ring when he enlisted
in the army" Jacobs said. mo,
don't know whether his title will
be declared vacant" He added that
he had no plans concerning a pos
sible title successor.
Since Billy Conn also is in the
army, the next three ranking heavy
weights are Bob Pastor of New
York, Lee Savold of DeS Moines and
Tami Mauriello of New York.
MOST ACTIVE
Louis has been the most active Of
heavyweight champions. He defend

j. Braddock on an eight-round
knockout at Chicago, June %, 1887,

Bomber Joe enlisted in the army
as a private on Jan. Ia at the
height of a career that began eight
years ago in Chicago-July 4, 1884.
Since his professional debut, he
fought 81 times, scoring Al knock
outs for the most destructive punch

DETROIT, Oct 12-CUPD-
John w. RoXoborough, co-manager
of Heavyweight Champion Joe
Louis, said today he was satisfied"
that Louis remarks announcing
his retirement from the ring were
'misinterpreted."
Joe and I talked it over only
a week ago. Roxborough said, land
at that time we agreed that Joe
would retire when the war is over
if he found then that he was too
old to carry on. And I think that's
what Joe meant by his remarks
Sunday.
"If the war is ended in six
months or a year, he wouldn't be
too old. So, you can rest assured
that Joe won't officially retire un-.

MYTHICAL CROWN
AFTER End Loss

NEW YORK, Oct 12.-UPD-
The hunt was on today for a new
collegiate football king after mighty
Minnesota's second straight defeat.
The Golden Gophers lost little of
their Simon-pure prestige after a
defeat by Bernie Bierman's power
packed Iowa pre-light eleven. But
the bubble burst Saturday when
Illinois-convinced by the SeahaWk
eXample-mauled Minnesota, 20-13
Every section of the nation i'm
mediately came up with candidates
for the mythical title and the South
seemed to hold the edge on all
American power and polish. Head
ing the list below the Mason Dixon
line is Alabama's Crimson Tide. fol-
lowed by Georgia, Vanderbilt
Georgia Tech and TC.U. The mid
west banked on Ohio State and Il
linois while the far west had Wash
ington State and Santa Clara. In
the east it was Colgate, Army,
Brown. Georgetown and Boston
College
But no matter which team makes
the mythical crown, the real king
of the college gridiron' apparent
ly will be Biermal S SeahaWks.
They continued their crushing ad-
vance with 26-14 win over Michi-
gan after previous triumphs over
two other Big Ten teams, North
western and Minnesota.
Illinois, by downing Minnesota,
shared upset hcnors with Purdue,
the Boilermakers edged out North
