FOUR ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG. OREGON. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1942. Joe Louis Isn't Quite Sure About Plan to Quit Ring By ART EDSON ' KANSAS CITY, Oct. 13 (AP) The Joe Louis controversy will he or won't he fight again? has ended. Both sides are right, Ser geant Joe, on his way from Fort Riley, Kan., to Lo6 Angeles for a two weeks funiough, diplomati cally voted both yes and no while waiting for his plane. Ho hasn't exactly retired. Still he doubts If he ever does any more heavyweight title-defending. (In Omaha Sunday Joe told David B. Kaufman of the Assocla tod Press his lighting days were over. Later from New York came Promoter Mike Jacobs' cry thut Joe had boen misinterpreted). "When I said In Omaha .1 wasn't going to fight again," Joe explained, "I meant I'd probably never have another chance. "This war is my business now. Say it hints two years. I'm in lufi the duration and six months after. That's a long time to be out of training." Then he figured he was through with the ring for keeps? It depends, Joe replied. "May be the competition won't amount to much. And it depends on how I feel. You can't tell what kind of shHpe I'll be in when this war is over." Joe, now 28, reiterated what he said in Omaha, that he would be pretty old for fighting when the war is finished. "Layoffs sure don't help none," he pointed out. "Longest I ever went without training was five months," he re called. "Getting in shape after that, I regretted every mile of It." On the other hand the army doesn't ruin one's condition as much as might be expected. "I got to feeling good quick while training lor Conn," he do-, dared. . And speaking of Conn, I ho boy whom Joe was to have fought un til the army gave it the gong, Louis doesn't think Billy's chances look too brilliant either. "Probably be some youngster coming along who can beat every body," was the way he put it. KNUCKLES DOWN FOR UNCLE SAM!

Dr. Fisher, who now is employ ed in St. George's school In Van couver, li. C, Is a British sub ject, but Is a graduate of Columbia university, lie was one of the last Englishmen to leave Japan, departing on the very last Japan ese ship bearing passengers to the United States. Following his return to this country, lie revealed to civilians the extent of Japanese war aims. So startling were the revelations made In his address at Seattle that he was immediately engaged by the Seattle Rotary ciub, which made arrangements through oth er clubs for his appearance in principal cities of the Pacific coast stales. Wherever he has gone his talk has attracted the greatest of In terest and comment. Members of the Roseburg club In July went to Marshfleld, where they heard his address.
