JEWS IN
SPORTS

This fight has more ballvhoo
and fanfare attending it than anv
of the champs twenty other fish
cuff fol-de-rols. Not since the
Brown Bomber stepped into the
ring to slaughter Max Schmeling
in one round at the Yankee Sta
dunn back in 1887 has the hoopla
and tub humping been as enthu-
siastic about a heavyweight title
scrap. Joe Louis, you will remem-
Der, signed for this fight with the
idea that the Navy Relief Organi-
zation was to get every penny of
his purse. Mike Jacobs, the pro-
moter, has donated another one
hundred percent of the impress
sario's revenue and challenger
Buddy Baer is kicking in with two
and a half percent. In all the
Navy stands an excellent chance
of netting well over hundred and
fifty grand as result of tonights
brawl. Mind you, there are some
who say that Buddy should have
contributed his entire fifteen per-
cent of the gate in the manner of
Master Louis but you must stop to
consider that even though Bud is
getting a crack at the lushest
prize in Fistiana, he still hasn't
earned fraction of what the
champ has collected in sugary
purses over a four-year period
and where Louis can get so many
items on the cuff, the junior Liver
more Larruper is still classified
among the wage slaves and coolies
of the fight game. At that, Bud
dy is probably kicking in with
some six or seven thousand dol
lars. The rest will be taken by
taxes and training camp expenses.
The charity angle is all well and
good. We're all for it. The main
idea is whether or not Buddy has
even a charitable chance of win
ming the title and emerging from
tOnight's fight as the winner and
new champion. We think he has.
1t would be foolish to go absolute
Iy haywire and predict that the
six foot four inch two hundred
and forty FOUNDER will knock the
Bomber out in just so many
rounds. But our dough is riding
on Buddy in this fight whatever
the prevailing ringside odds may
be.

Ter will forget it. Buddy belted
Louis with terrific right to the
Jaw early in the first round that
actually lifted the Detroit boxer
clear off his feet and hurtled him
over the ropes. Every sports
writer in the land agreed to the
TACT that if Louis foot had not got
entangled in the ropes as he was
spinning over the guarding lines
OF that resined arena, Louis would
have landed among the seats of
the thirty-first row. (To be sure.
Galento once sent the champ into
flop which the boxing writers
dubbed a knock-down and Galento
had even begun to believe that he
had done that mighty trick. The
next fight convinced one and all
that it was merely a marjahana
nightmare on the part of Two-ton
Tony and so Buddy still remains
the only man aside from Max
Schmeling to drop the champ for
! any length of time.) That blow
that Buddy sent to the chin of the
champ was terrific. The fact that
Louis returned to the scrap and
despite so terrific a punch could
still manage to win in the seventh
p: speaks well for the champ. That
Joe Louis could take it, could come
from behind and really turn on the
. heat is an old story to ringside
devotees. But that another fight
+ er exists with the mighty punch
displayed by Buddy Baer was a
j thrilling Innovation to the crowds
who had watched Louis NOV down
the opposition with the monoton-
GUS regularity of metronome.
Buddy hasn't lost that punch.
AS a matter of fact, we've heard
from different sources along CauI-
iflOwer Lane that Buddy's punch
is developing the lethal power pos
sessed by brother Max when that
madcap was heading for the top.
Veterans will remember that Max
Baer once killed man in the ring
as result of terrific uppercut
to the jaw of Ernie Schaaf.
/ Buds ability to dish it out is
known. His ability to take it for
seven rounds after standing toe
to toe with the champ and match
ing punch for punch is another
known item. Buddy is bigger
stronger, faster, younger. He has
the experience that comes with
one fight with champion Joe
Louis. The champ is still in per-
feet physical condition. His
punches are just as terrific but
the same lightning speed is not
there. The champ is almost twenty
seven. The wear and tear is be-
ginning to tell. Mind you Louis
is really the stuff of which cham
pions are made-but we do think
Buddy Baer will take him in this
fight At any rate we hope so,
every penny of our Chanukah gelt
is riding on the baby Baer who
sports the Mogen David.

New Rubber Contracts
With South America
Evidence Of Ample
Supplies Given to
Committee by Maj. Dove

BY the Associated Press.
A renegotiation of contracts
for South American natural
rubber was discussed today at a
closed session of a Senate Agri-
culture Subcommittee which
Chairman Gillette said received
ample evidence of ample sup
plies" to meet United States war
needs.
Senator Gillette would not re-

been cleared for publication by the
War Department."

Agriculture Department to increase
its paintings of guayule, rubber
producing shrub, from $4,000 to

House amendments.
The House vote came shortly after

gency rubber program, formulated
after the Japanese seized the world S
principal rubber resources, would
