Gus Says He'll Kayo
Mills, Then Go for
Heavy Throne
BY the Assoeiosed Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Just one
more fight as light heavyweight,
then Gus Lesnevich goes after the
million dollar prize-the heavy
weight championship Of the world.
That is the plan of the veteran
Clif1side, N. j., fighter who lost his
175-pound crown to England's
Freddie Mills last month in London.
Gus, who returned to the United
States yesterday. is booked for a
return title bout with Mills in
Ebbets Field September %.
I'm going to stop Mills next
time" 33-year-old Gus Predicted.
That's something I've meyer said
before"
Gus added the fight will be def
nitely my last as a light heavy
weight"
Lesnevich hopes Joe Louis will re-
consider his announced retirement
as heavyweight champion. Other
wise he believes confusing"
tournament will result.
In any event, Gus is regarded as
one of the leading contenders for
the heavy crown. He mentioned
Jersey Joe Walcott, who went Is
rounds with Louis before being
kayoed, and Ezzard Charles as other
contenders, but added, Charles
hasn't shown anything outstanding"
Charles is matched with Jimmy
Bivins in a coming Washington,
D. c., bout and Walcott said yester-
day he is willing to meet the winner
provided the MIA would recog-
inize the winner of this latter bout
as heavyweight champion. If the
MIA agrees to this, Walcott then
would want 100000 or 271a per cent
of the gate.
Meantime, boxing returns to Mad
ison Square Garden tonight with
Tippy Larkin of Garfield, N. j.,
slated to meet Willie Beltram of
New York in 10-round feature.
The welterweight scrap tops a
card which includes three round
and two four-round preliminaries.
The show is the Twentieth Century
Sporting Clubs second promotion
since its switch from Friday to
Thursday nights during the summer.

role of this picture stands II hands
and weighs 1900 pounds. Other
horses had to be big enough to
carry a stalwart knight carrying

You can't stagger an Iowa horse

Bergman in a full suit of armor.
Dore Schary, new production ex-
executive at Metro Golden-Mayer, is
making no sudden changes in the
company's personnel or policy, but
he has just come up with deal
that sounds enticing. First new big
name added to Metros roster under
Schary is that Of John Huston. Mn.
Huston, a writer-director- producer,
Is the all-around man who repre-
sents Schary's ideal Of the film
maker.
Huston, son of the Actor Walter,
began his film career as a writer
on the Warner Bros. staff.
His best picture this year, Treas
ure Of Sierra Madre," is a candidate
for whatever honors the movie
colony will have to offer at the end
of the season. Most likely of these
is the supporting actor prize to
Huston's father for his portrait of
the philosophic old prospector in
the film.
Technically only was it a sup
porting role. BY any honest meas
urement it was not only the biggest,
but the best played, in the screen
drama.
The KaninS, this time Fay, wife of
Michael, are sticking to Washington
as the partial background of their
plays Heroine of her "Goodby, My
Fancy" is a beautiful Congress
woman. The play will open on
Broadway next Wednesday with
Madeleine Carroll in the prin-
cipal role.
Born Yesterday" brother-in-law
Carson Kanin's play which has had
two seasons on Broadway, also has
a Washington theme.
X Il
Newest Hollywood feudists, at
least in the minds of the colony's
columnists, are Judy Garland and
Ginger Rogers. Their stories go
that Ginger's work with Fred AS
taire in ''The Barkleys of Broad
way" has inspired M-G-M to invite
her back for another musical. 1t
won't be shot, however, until Miss
Garland has finished using the lot
for Annie, Get Your Gun"
The idea is that the premises are
not large enough for both girls at
the same time.
Probably quite false, considering
the size of Metros acreage.

Willard johnson, general secretary

by the General Assembly year ago
1t instructed the Economic and
Social Council to draft a convention
on genocide for presentation to the

Action on the recommendation

genocide.
At the behest Of Yugoslavia, the
General Assembly's Legal Committee
has decided to draft a new con.
