Louis Bout Will Head
Ambitious Program
For Spring, Summer
BY the Assoeiatsd Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-The fight
game. frisky from new shot in
the arm, is heading into one Of its
most ambitious spring and sum-
mer schedules in years.
At least five world champion
ships are slated to be put up for
grabs between now and the August
dog days, with Joe Louis one
last-time heavyweight title defense
heading the bill.
Other champions crowding into
the picture are MiddleWeight
Marcel Cerdan of France, Welter-
weight Ray Robinson of New York.
Lightweight Ike Williams of Tren-
ton, N. j., and Featherweight
Willie Pep of Hartford, Conn.
Robinson's foe for his first title
defense since last June was plotted
yesterday when Williams and
Cuba's intriguing Kid Gavilan
were signed for an over-the weight
bout at Madison Square Garden
March 18.
Williams Busy Champ.
The winner is to be recognized
IN New York as the leading 147-
pound contender. Gavilan won a
split decision from Williams last
January % in a bloody, hammer
and-tongs slugfest.
The active Williams, besides
shooting for crack at the welter
title, also has agreed to defend his
own crown April 81 at Los Angeles
against Enrique Bolanos of Mexico
City.
The lightweight king will re-
ceive only 7l2 per cent cut of
the gate in this charity affair for
the Lou Costello Junior Founda-
ton.
Cerdan is scheduled to give Tony
Lale a chance to win back the
mlddleweight c h m p onship in
June under the auspices of the
tournament of champions.
The T-of-C. which promoted the
September brawl in which Zale
lost his title to the Frenchman
on l2-round knockout, is figuring
on staging the show in Chicago or
some city besides New York.
It's freely accepted among the
fight faithful now that Joe Louis
didn't mean positively" when he
retired after the second Jersey
Joe Walcott scrap last year and he
will put his crown on the line at
least one more time.
Savold Faces Decision
This would be an outdoor at
traction in June against either Lee
Savold Of Paterson, N. j., or Ezzard
Charles, the vicious shipper from
Cincinnati.
Just this week Joe told Savold
he'd give him a week to decide to
meet Charles in an elimination
bout to determine the logical con-
tender.

back his featherweight crown from
Sandy Saddler last week in the
