Parisian Boxing Czar
Finds Strange Peace
By OSCAR FRALET
(Onltod PrM Sporti Writer)
New York, Oct. 11 U.R Jo
Longman's eyes were gentle be
hind thick brown glasses, win
dows to a soul which was at
peace beeause the ravenous
hanger of revenge had been
ttsfled, and he was content to
be known as the manager of
Marcel Cerdan.
But the real peace must have
come yesterday as Longman and
his "boy' died In a plane against
a mountain peak In the Azores.
For there was no great am
bition left In the sturdy little
man whose eyes went bad In
the North African desert glare
as the free French army made
Ha legendary l.fOO-mlle trek
to do battle with Germany's
arrogant Afrlka korps. His
hopes and dreams died with
his mother, three nephews
and many friends In the con
centration camp at Dachau
and Buehenwald.
The flame and fury faded
from those dimming eyes in the
summer of 1944. That was when
Oen. Jacques LeClerc led the
free French back Into Pari!
and traitors and collaborators
paid their debt to Longman In
full.
Jo Longman, the "Mike Ja
cobs of Paris," didn't talk much
about those days In his recent
visits to America. He was In
tent now on regaining the mid

boy Marcel. But the gentle eyes

behind the brown glasses would
flicker momentarily when the
fight mob talked of his return
to Paris.
For In those days of late
1944, Wild-eyed Jo Longman
was an executioner. Armed
with a list of traitors and,
some whisper, more than that
he ferretted out the false
Frenchmen who had aided the
conquerors. It was no secret
that Longman and four com
panions, who had fled first
to England and then to North
Africa, "took eare of them."
"We paid them a visit and
they apparently were con
science-stricken," Longman ex
plained once In that quiet voice.
"There was a wave of suicides."
More than 80 "suicides" the
story goes.
And, as the "suicides" mount
ed, the flames behind the brown
glasses died to empty ashes. The
searing sorrow had been sati
ated. Longman was content to go
back to the business of pro
moting fights after his "visits"
ended. It was a business where
he could find solace In pick
ing up the prewar pieces.
Jo was an Englishman by
birth but a Parisian by nature.
His family moved to France
when he was a child and Long
man's boyhood was spent as a
messenger around the various
fight clubs. By the time the
war opened he was the leading
fight promoter In Paris and al
ready envisioning a world title
for Cerdan. But before his plans
could be fulfilled, the Germans
came and Longman left.
First it was England and then
North Africa, and the rage grew
as word came that his family
had been wiped out in the con
centration charncl houses. The
march which the free French
made from Lake Chad in French
equatorial Africa to the North
African coast Is om of the heroic
episodes of the Wi.r. Longman
was there, a footsore but pledg
ed part of It.
Then came the Psrls payoff
and as much peace as he
would. know while still alive.
He and his four partners form
ed nightclub called the Club
Du Cinq The Club of Five.
They branched out in various
other enterprises and Jo pro
moted boxing at the Palais Des
Sports. He managed his boy.

San Francisco, Oct. 11 Din
West Coast football now It on
the up-grade and should be able
to take eare of Itself In the fu
ture because competent single
wing coaches have been Instal
led In the major schools, Glen
S. (Fop) Warner, one time
coaching great, believes.
'The trouble with our foot
ball since the war " the former
Stanford, Carlisle and Pitt
coach said, "Is that too many
coaches think they have to use
the T-formatlon when they have
slnglewlng material."
Warner down through the
years never has reconciled him
self to the fact that possibly the
T-formation was just about as
effective as his single wings. It
has burned him when a T
formation club beats a single
wing and he will sprout tooth
paste ad smiles when a single
wing team comes out on top.
"Jeff Cravath down at USC
made the mistake of his life
when he shifted to the T
formation," Warner said. "He
should have followed In the
footsteps of the late Howard
Jones and used the power
available at USC in the single
wing."
The new single wing coaches
in the west are Red Sanders,
who has had remarkable suc
cess In his first year at UCLA;
and Kip Taylor, who also is
doing well at Oregon State, de

sickness and injuries.
