some excellent publicity re-

the best displays is the cover
painting for the September issue
of Readers Digest" 1t is the
work of artist Paul Sample and
while the foreground has been
"souped up" to glamorize the
scene Perry's Memorial is easily
recognizable. We're all pleased
to learn that the well-known mag
azine has selected Perry's Memoir

painting is one of the series being

DAWN TAYLOR, the blond
soprano who appeared with
the Lakeside Quartet at the Ro-

is a natural for a brilliant career
as musical comedy star. With
her pixish charm, vivaciousness

could star in several of the pres

her serious music career. She'll
study in New York this fall and
she'll have to keep her abilities
hidden or some producer will
draft her for a musical comedy
lead.

CHAMBER URGES
zONINC LAWS
Fire Prevention Measure Is
Needed To Retain City's
Low Fire Record

"Port Clinton has been unusn
ally lucky in net having any dis
astrous fires in recent months,
Foss H. Gragg, program director
of the Ohio Fire Safety Commit
tee, told Chamber of Commerce
members at their meeting in the
Colonial Clubrooms Thursday
evening.
at is only matter of time
before this city's excellent fire
record will be spelled unless we
instigate some fire prevention
measures, Mr.. Gragg told the
group. He asked that the local
chamber take charge of fire pre-
vention work in the county. as
did Fire Chief Walter Miller and
Department Secretary Jack Rid
die.
Carl Keller, chairman of the
zoning committee, advised that it
was his plan to arrange a meet

discuss the plan. Also to attend
would be Frederick Zeis, chair
man of the Industry and Trade
committee; AL Davids, chairman
of the Public Affairs committee;
Ex-Mayor A. w. Chapman and
Mayor Becker.
1t seemed to be the general idea
that much Of the ground work
that was done on this problem
several years ago, would now have
to be repeated. Object of the
meeting would be to determine
just where the zoning committee
should start in reviving interest
and action on the proposed zoninR
ordinance,
at is a peculiar situation. Most
everyone believes and says we
need such an ordinance but there
seems to be too much reluctance
on the part of certain officials to
push the matter along, Secretary
Tom Finefrock stated.

Ezzard Charles Has First
Anniversary as Champ
Last week a historic date went
by unoticed by sports fans in gen
eral and boxing fans in particular
June % to most people was the
first day Of summer. June 20 to al
great number Of fans was the
date that Joe oLuis in 1887 lifted
the heavyweight crown from the
brow of courageous Jimmy Brad
dock.
To this ringsider, June % is
also the date that Ezzard Charles
won his MIA title that Louis held
so long before him. Charles top
ped Jersey Joe Walcott in a rather
slow bout for the National Box
ing association version of the title.
Ezzard began his reign as if
he meant to surpass every record
the groat Brown Bomber establish
ed He had to do this because al
though he was officially the
champion the fans regarded Joe
Louis as the real Champ.
First thing he did was to sign
to defend his title in September,
less than three months after he
had won it - sooner than ever
had won it - sooner than even
Joe Louis defended his. He kayo-
ed Gus Lesnevich, debated former
light heavyweight champions who
refused to give Charles a chance
at his title when he held it.
Although he defended this
crown in New York, the state of
New York refused to recognize
him as titlist, and still does. In
that state there is no champion.
Charles then went out West to
battle an overpublicized Pat Val
entino in the Cow Cow Palace in
San Francisco. Again, he scored
a lockout, but still he was reco-
gnized only by the MIA and the
International Boxing club which
promoted his bouts.
Later came his fateful signing
for a bout with Freddie Beshore
in Buffola, N. Y. First the fight
was postponed because Of a train
ing camp injury to Charles. Then
it was postponed again. Finally,
it was postponed because Charles
has a "bad" heart.
So, today, slightly more than a
year after he won his heavy
weight championship ofthe world
Ezzard Charles probably is the
first champ to be sidelined be-
cause Of his ticker. He is a champ
who wants to fight, but cannot
be permitted to enter the ring.
He has to wait until August
to learn. the true status, of his fut-
ure in the. ring. At the same time
some people over in Europe have
decided that a never-has been, Lee
Savold. is worlds champion How
could they?
