Louis Leaves Fans
Sour After Pair Of
WEAK Exhibitions
By the Assoeioisd Press

DETROIT, Dec. 15.-Retired
Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis
toyed with two oponents last night
in a pair of flye-round exhibition
bouts that were more of a f1nan-
cial than a f1stic success.
Louis had the same old deadpan
expression as he chugged through
his chores with Irish Johnny
Flynn of Rochester. N. Y. and the
veteran Roscoe Toles of Detroit.
The former heavyweight king S
weight was announced at 225- but
he looked to be even heavier than
that. Flynn came in at 210 and
Toles at 225.
A crowd of s,257 paid a gross
gate of $19,778.96-at that. less
than half the expectations-to see
the show but they missed the best
scrap Of the night.
Before going on. Flynn baked
heatedly at the arrangements, de-
mandtng 2-minute rounds such as
when he went 10 with Louis al
Kansas City last month.
Increase Flynn's Pay.
Finally the Michigan Boxing
Commission and the international
Boxing Club settled for minute
and-a-half intervals between
rounds and upped Flynn's share OF
the gate from $3.50 to, $2.120.
Flynn apparently was weary
from his verbal battling for he
did little in the way of flsticuffs.
After d healthy booing the two
decided to do a little fighting
Louis bloodied Flynn's nose, but
he never really .opend up with his
10-ounce gloves.
The second bout. between Toles
and Louis, was q little better. but
drew almost as many boos.
One of Toles' chief claims to
fame is that he was knocked out
by Louis at Flint in 1886 when
both we're young pros.
His 15-minute affair with Louis
last night was a sort OF cat and
mouse affair.
Fans Walk Out.
Toles was q busy boxer. but
every time he bothered Louis the
|ex-champ slapped him around
without too much enthusiasm. A
lot Of fans walked out midway
in the bout.
It was Louis fifth appearance
on the seven-flght exhibition tour
to end with shows at Salt Lake
City and Oakland, Calf.
Louis said he might go to South
America for an exhibition tour
after the first Of the year. If
that falls through, he plans sew
eral more exhibition bouts.
Asked If he had changed his
mind about returning to the ring
for some real scraps, Louis re-
piled:
Nothing that has happened in
these exhibition fights has got me
to thinking that I should 60 back
into the ring for regular fights. +"
That was a repetition Of Louis
oft-repeated assertion that he was
through with regular fighting.
