movie actress Jeanne Grain this
Thursday morning, when Mayor
Carl Becker made the notable
presentation on the steps of the
City Hall
AS cameras clicked and bulbs
flashed, the mayor explained that
Jeanne has this extraordinary
honor because Port Clinton has
just become a city, by few days
and her loveliness and wonderful
acting "called for more than a
mere village key.
Jeanne oooohed again, "cry-
ing, that is thrilling tool"
She said, II am more than
proud to have this honor, because
| think Port Clinton is simply a
wonderful city, and l just love all
the good people who opened my
eyes to a vacationland which is
so different from little old Bal
stow, California;
At no time did Jeanne reflect
her early training from Orson
Welles, nor her fear of leaving
California when she played

lingering the huge key, she
gave Mayor Becker a Wide-eyed
smile which asked if the big key
would open a jackpot on any of
the Ohio slot machines.
For the first time in his long
political career of dealing out
personal pleasantries, Mayor
Becker was completely bushed,
but not for long.
THAT key, honey, he said can
unlock anything, like the scrump-
tious way we feel about you folks

AT The Ringside
By
LUX Virgil overbea
For AMP
LOUIS, CHARLES TAKING
NO CHANCES

Boxing fans can expect nothing
new in the heavyweight division
until next summer when heavy
weight champion Ezzard Charles
and ex-champion Joe Louis fight
again in a return bout for the
title.
Judging by the next fight that
each man has scheduled, this
ringsideer would say that neither
Louis nor Charles is taking any
undue chances of being upset be-
fore the big money bout.
Charles has signed up to meet
Jersey Joe Walcott in a rematch.
Jersey Joe already has lost to
Charles once, and in his most re-
cent bout lost to Rex Layne of
Utah, the only possible white
hope" in action today.
Charles figures to beat Walcott
again, especially since it appears
that the old man has been slowed
down by age. The champ also may
look bad against Wa-cott as he
did against Oma, thus giving fans
the hope that Louis might whip
him.
Louis is doing even worse in his
selection of an opponent. He has
picked up on Amelio Agramonte,
trial horse in the true sense OF
the phrase. He cannot help but
make Joe look good.
Joe may even knock this bum
out, thus flooring an opponent for
the first time during his Inflated
comeback. After all. Clarence
Henry from out West came East
for the recent Charles-Oma scrap
to all but kayo Agramonte in
eight rounds.
Amelio has made one appear
ance in Chicago recently, and
showed nothing to rate bout even
with a tired, aging Joe Louis.
After this bout, fans will be
raving about the new-found Louis
punch, and talking about what he
will do to Charles.
Fights like this may boost Joe's
confidence in himself, but will not
prepare him adequately to fight
an efficient machine like Charles.
With this buildup the fighters will
gain one consolation from the
summer bout-a good gate.
Joe Louis on his present showing
will be outpointed again, and
Charles will continue as champion
for at least another year.

The Fashion
Department

All the big fashion shows are
going on in New York right now
and designers are featuring the
latest trends for spring and sum-
mer. The rule-o-two seems to DOM
mate everything. For instance,
there are two distinct silhouettes:
ultra slim for suits and street
dresses, super full for coats, after
noon and evening clothes. Two
colors to every costume in another
trend. The monotone or all one
color ensemble is rare. Fabrics are
combined in twos also. Thick
with.thin fabrics or soft-with-stiff'
Fashion is seeing double in de-
tails. too, twin collars, twin belts,
double lapels, double sleeves, dou-
Bile hemlines, double brims on
hats, double tiers on capes and
double flounces on skirts. The
report on spring suits is that they
have a moulded, but not toe
tightly fitted waistline, skirts look
narrow, but designers usually com
nromise with "back Sits" Oh
Flares" for easy walking. Evening
dresses have gone Edwardian OF
18th Century again, with bonec
bodices, poufed overskirts, bach
buttons, petticoats, crinolines ane
even hoops. Even the short party
dresses have crinolined full skirts
and look very pretty.
Remember the "plunging neck
line" 1t has been discreetly ris
ing during the last season, an'
now necklines are up and tn
backs are going down. Even SOM
day dresses are cut low at tn
back and most of the short eve
ming dresses are that way too.

DREAM TEAM

With so many outstanding Negro
stars in the major leagues today
one cannot help imagining an all
star dream team. Strangely
enough, the Negro stars scattered
out in the majors number nine
and the positions they play form
a perfect baseball team. Wnat
managers heart wouldn't jump for
low if he could field such an out
standing array of talent. This
lineup would be a perfect cream
team: Monte Irving, Sammy Jetn-
roe, and Larry Dolby in tie out
field. Luke Easter at first base,
Jackie Robinson at second, Hank
Thompson at third, Artie Wilson
at shortstop, Roy Campenella
catching and Big Don Newcome
pitching.
