Joe Louis Wins
Go

BALTIMORE, Nov. 7. (UP)-Ser-
geant Joe Louis used the lighteSt
bombs in the rack Monday night,
but demonstrated his old-time pre-
cision long enough to win a deci-
sion over Charley Crump, Baltimore
coast guardSman, in three-round
exhibition bout in the jam-packed
Century Athletic club.
Performing for the second time
as an added feature" in scheduled
string of exhibition fights, the
Brown Bomber boarded his heavy
artillery and gave Crump only few
samples of his sharp punching.
Four thousand fans gave Soldier
Joe a laundering ovation as he
climbed into the ring. The champ
weighed 212, and appeared to be
flabbier than the sleek machine he
was at his preWar peak.
In the main event of the eve
ning's serious slugging, Holman

unanimous 1a-round decision over

CHICAGO, Nov. 7. tUP)-Elmer
Layden, president of the National
Football league, anc Coach Harry
Stuhldreher of Wisconsin, believe
that an international sports pro-
gram can prevent future wars.
Speaking Monday at Football
luncheon meetings Layden urged
that physical training and competi-
tive sports replace the proposed
program for compulsory military
training while Stuhldreher asked
that the U. S. organize an interna-
tlonal sports program to create
better under landing between ma
tionS.
LayCen, outlining a suggestion re-
Gently made by Coach Edward
Slip Madigan of the University
Of Iowa, said compulsory military
training would only serve to take
year out of boys life. Instead
of the routine life in the army camp
he could increase his value by en-
gaging in physical training with
backbone of competitive sports
Stuhldreher said that the United
States should take steps to meet
the need fer international competi-
ton and set up an organization to
sponsor Olympic games each year
in such sports as baseball. football,
golf, basketball, track and tennis.

Author Of Negro
Spiritual Still
Stays UnsoIved

NORMAN, Okla, Nov. 7. tUP) -
Was the Negro spiritual, Swing
Low, Sweet Chariot" composed by a
slave on a Red River plantation?
Nobody knows for sure. but some
evidence indicates that the song
may have been composed in Okla
homa, believes Kenneth C. Kauf-
man. head of the department of
modern languages at the University
of Oklahoma.
Most people have heard that the
slave in question belonged to Rob-
ert. M. Jones, a ChoctaW Indian He
came to the territory with the
Choctaw tribe a 1882, settling
near old Fort ToWson, at Doaks-
vile. Jones was part owner Of the
trading post at Doaksville.
Jones owned several steamboats,
which piled the Red River and the
Mississippi, one called the "R. M
Jones' anot er the Frances
JONES' after his only daughter.
About ten miles west of Fort Tow
son, Jones built a Southern colo
nial mansion. The furniture was
imported from Europe or brought
up from New Orleans. Today only
a grove of cedars marks the place
Miss Muriel Wright, who never
tires of tracing curious bits of Ok
lahoma history, located a certain
Frances Banks, once a slave of
John Kingsbury of Boggy Depot
She said that her grandfaph her
Wallace, who belonged to Brett
Willis, another prominent and
wealthy ChoctaW living near
Doakesville, composed not only
Swing Low" but STEAL Away tC
Jesus" The Angels Are Coming,
and I'm a-Rolling."
Uncle" Wallace and his wife
Aunt" Minerva, had quite a repu-
tation in the Doaksville commun-
ity for their singing Of plantation
songs. But it is quite probably that
no one will ever know the origin
of the song, Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot" Prof Kaufman believes.

Head for Title
BY WALT RYERS

CHICAGO, Nov. I. CUP)-A pair
OF forgotten gridiron powers, a soft
spoken Irishman and his glcry-
hungry football team, were title
bound Tuesday for the national
football fame which has been ig-
noring them so far this season.
With little drum beating and hull
labaloo Lieutenant Commander Jack
Meagher brought his Iowa Pre-
Flight SeahawkS back from an OPEN
ing defeat by Michigan to where
now they loom large as one of the
country's top teams and are eX-
pected to win their third straight
national service championship.
For Meagher. head football coach
at Auburn from 1888 to 1943. it
marks well-Shaped victory.
The former Notre Dame star has
taken a conglomeration Cf football
talent from the nation over and
shaped smattering of veterans
and high school students into a
well-oiled touchdown machine. His
cross buck "T" has won seven
straight games, including victories
over the Second Air Force Super
bombers, Purdue and Tulsa.
The Seahawks defeated Tulsa, A.
27, Saturday and their victory over
the SuperbomberS-whose passing
is handled by the renowned Glenn
Dobbs-ended a three-year winning
streak.
In the Big Ten this week end, un-
