Joe Louis Last Stop

Joe Louis says his return engage
ment with Jersey Joe Walcott in
June will be his last stop.
1t has been long time since the
Bomber came out of Detroit and the
Golden Gloves to knock out Jack
Kracken in one round, in his first
professional fight. No one should ex-
pect Louis to be the same fighter he
was at that time or when he won
the title. When you reach the top
you usually begin to soften up in a
short time, and the wonder is that
Louis is still champion. The main
answer has been lack of COMPETE
ton, lack of quality in the other cor
ner.
The public at large was bad
ly j0lted by the BOmber's per-
Torrance against Walcott. They
took 1t for granted the Louis Of
1947 was still the Louis Of 1887.
There is mighty big difference.
Jack Dempsey was at his peak at
the age of "a. He was over the hill
at the age Of 81 and through at the
age Of 80. Louis is now three years
older than Dempsey was.

To Be but Fair Souvenirs

At the Chicago Worlds fair &C.,

sands of souvenir clocks were sold
bearing a portrait of Columbus
and the date 1892, says Golfers.
Years later upon the death of the
original purchasers, a large num-
Der of these souvenirs came into
the possession of descendants and
others, many of whom, believing
they owned "a clock brought over

The Star AlL.Arounder

Who is your nomination for the
best all-around football player of all
time?
We happened to be at a gathering
that included such well-known
names as Jeff Cravath of Southern
California, Mel Helm of the Giants,
Joe Stydahar, Bob Snyder, Morley
Drury and perhaps a dozen 9TH
ers known to gridiron fame.
More than few names were en-
tered in the argument. Jim Thorpe,
Ernie Movers, Red Grange, Bronko
Nagurski, George Gipp, Don Hutson
these were all among the leading
candidates for this highly mythical
honor.
''If you were picking the great
est backs, l suppose you'd have
to name Thorpe and Nevers,"
Cravath said. "PrObably Thorpe
on his big days. But for the all
around combination, 1 don't see
how you can get away from Ma
gurski, great tackle, a star
end, a wrecking fullback and
passer. I believe the Bronx
would have made a good quar-
terback. While he weighed
around 225 pounds, he was also
fast and shifty.
"One answer is that II Nagurskis
could wreck any other one-name
eleven, although II Nevers and II
Thorpes wouldn't be any shove
arounds after little line expert
ence. Seven Bronks would be too
good line to run against"
Cravath's statement drew heavy
backing from most of the others.
Oddly enough, it happened to be
Grange who led all others at the box
office. Red had an appeal beyond
Thorpe or any other single star, al
though he was only a fair passer.
Grange made more out of football
than any other star-more than
double the amount, when you con-
slider all the cash that came his
way through his football fame.

And let's not forget that the fish trap children would not over crowd our schools as the children of fishermen, barhers, merchants and draymen unquestionably do. Just think what a relief it would be for oul teachers. And the bene- fit here is double and cumulative since it would relieve the fish traps themselves of the necessity of paying so much Alaska taxes
 And considering the number of fiddlers that have been canned m Alaska this year as echoes, there can be no question that the fish trap is nobly doing it's part to save the trollers from burning up so much gas.

The coming fish trap referen- dunn has promoted considerable discussion but it seems to us some of the talk has been i'll considered.
 It should be perfectly apparent to any serious minded person that it would be easier. for instance. for a barber to shave one fish trap than a hundred fishermen. And if the hundred fishermen are forced to leave the Territory. as a thous- and others have done. then the barber would have more leisure to enjoy the climate
 However. it appears to us that Il fish trap would probably eat fewer beans than a hundred fish ermen, wear less overalls ana boots. drink less coffee and beer all of which would make life so much easier for the poor harassed merchants, and especially for their salesmen and delivery men. In fact if all the fish were caught in fish traps we could all take life easy while the fish traps relieve us work. After all, why should we work? This is the machine age.

The matter is simple. Heed not those seiners and gillnetters. nor the trollers who have large vested interests. All together now, three cheers for the traps. The popula- tion of our Territory can never be built up without them. Let's all vote to perpetuate the fish traps and then all go off and die. And don't forget the man who fathered this attempt to save our fish traps for ten years.
