The Kind That Works

All of which taken together spells
citizenship with all that it implies
in a free country whose future
depends so largely upon its people
having clear heads, clean hearts,
trained hands and robust health
the goal of the All Clubs.
All Club work teaches citizen
ship; good citizenship in practi-
cal effective way. | know of no
other system of education that does
a better job of it.
All Club work fills a great need
in the lives of rural boys and girls.
1t has a great purpose-fine OBJ
jectives, and therefore has come
TO be a great movement.
AS we face the problem of win
ming a permanent peace what could
be more important that the train
ing given youth through All Clubs.
The boys and girls of club age
today will be the ones who will
determine the policy of government
25 years from now.

OBSERVER POST
Well-Known Sports Editor
To Enter Hotel Resort
Business

Jake Wade, sports editor Of the
Charlotte Observer, yesterday re-
signed that position with the an
nouncement that he intended to
enter the resort hotel business at
Wrigtsville Beach with his mother.
in-law Mrs. c. M. Lands, owner
of The Lands.
A familiar figure at Wrightsville.
Wade will assume an active part
in management of The Lands, Mrs.
Lands said last night in confirm
ing reports from Charlotte that her
editor s%on-in-law was resigninz
from newspaper work.
In Charlotte, Wade said he IN
tended to devote a portion Of his
time to special writing, and that he
might try a hand at some fiction,
in addition to his resort hotel man
agement activities.
Mrs. Wade, with her brother
Frank Lands, is co-owner and
manager Of the Trade Winds a
new resort adjoining The Lands on
the beach waterfront.

initial rounds over the Greensboro
Country club course, site of this
years tourney.
But Tuesday morning, with the
flights set up from the qualifying
scores, it will be the start Of a
72-hole battle to find the successor
to Aaron Rice, the High Point
youngster who was crowned last
year..
Rice won the championship in
his last year of eligibility and
thus will not be permitted back
to defend his title.
The field is more OF less wide
open since last years strongest
contenders have passed the age
limits.
However, from the list of early
qualifiers, some three youths are
temporarily occupying something
resembling the favorite's spot.
Frank Brooks, Jr., of Siler City,
N. c., and Billy Aldridge, Of Bur-
lington, posted 73s earlier in the
week which are still low. Bobby
Everhart, of High Point, turned
in a rs which attracts attention
and then Ed Barnes, a member
of this past seasons senior high
golf team posted a rs. A trio OF
others have come in for early
consideration on the basis of It's,
they are Frank Little and Karlo
Farrell, both of Greensboro, and
Tommy Langley, High Point.

is doubtful that it will exceed the
record receipts for a sports at
traction-the So, 65s, 600, drawn by
the second Jack Dempsey-Gene
Tunney extravaganza at Chicago
in 1927.
Mike Jacobs, irritated by pub
lished reports that the gate might
fall below 50. 900, 5000, declared
heatedly today, why, we've al
ready got more than two million
in the till He refused to predict
just how high the gate would 60.
BreWn-skinned Louis of Detroit,
making the 22nd defense of the
crown he wrestled from Jim Brad
dock in 1887 is favored at 1875 in
heavy betting to repeat his victory
over Pittsburgh Billy, who threat
ened to take the title on June 18,
1941, but was knocked ont in the
18th round after leading on points.
Irish Billy, who had gone into
that bout a Al underdog, put up
such a magnificent fight that many
experts believed he could have
"coasted' to the title had he not
made the mistake in the 18th round
of trying 10 slug it out with the
champion, Wno had been punch
groggy and on the verge of COL
lapse in the 18th.
The war-caused delay of their
return bout raised another ques-
ton, almost as potent as a build
up vehicle. Both men have aged
five years, sending Louis into the
ring at 80 and Billy at %. Thirty
two is a ripe age for any profess
sional fighter and particularly for
a defending champion. Because of
Joe's age, a major question is this:
has their tour-year absence from
competition taken more out OF
Louis than out of the younger
Conn:
Because of their contrasting
methods of training for the fight,
no one has been able to answer
this question with certainty.
Recent examinations by COM
mission physicians indicated that
Conn was in better physical condi-
ton than Louis-less likely to tire
if the bout lasts it's scheduled IS
rounds.
Both principals are heavier than
for their previous bout. Louis, who
weighed 1879 10 pounds in Al, ex-
poets to scale 210 Wednesday night,
and he has grown a full inch, now
registering six feet two and a half
inches. Conn's weight has increas-
ed from ia to 100 pounds and he
appears to be hitting harder than
in the past. Billy, who fails to get
his body behind his punches, eve
was q knockout artist.
However Louis has been one Of
the deadliest punchers in ring his
tory. In q previous title defenses
only two opponents lasted the dis
tance-Arturo Godoy Of Chile, who
was knocked out in a return bout,
and Tommy F'arr of Wales. And
the champion will enter the ring
with only enc defeat charged
against him since he turned pro-
fessional on July 4, 1884.
