DUSKY DETROITER READY FOR GONG

NEW YORK. June 35. (AP) No
matter what happens tonight when
Joe Louis, "Brown Bomber" from De
troit, trains his short-range fire on
Prlmo Camera at the Yankee sta
dium, their box office appeal assures
one of the biggest financial successes
since pugllllsra took the country from
Old Man Depression.
Favorable weather reports, coupled
with extraordinary Interest aroused
throughout the country by the most
Important mixed match In more than
a decade of heavyweight activity,
boomed the ticket sales.
There was little chance of a sellout
for a park that can accommodate
close to 60.000 but It appeared cer
tain more than 60.000 cash customers
would contribute nearly $400,000 to
see Just how long It will take the
youthful negro, Louis, to bring down
the 200-pound Italian giant.
Dwarfs Title Bout Crowd
Such a turnout would dwarf the
relatively small crowd, less than 30,
000 paid, which saw James J. Brad
dock take the heavyweight title from
Max Baer two weeka ago. It would
act a new 'high" for non-champion
hip boutha since Jack Dempsey flat
tened Jae Sharkey In the same arena
In 1037.
The odds appeared likely to be at
least 3 to 1 In favor of Louis when
the clana gather at the ringside. There
was little Camera money In sight.
Broadway shared the general belief of
fistic experts and followers-at-large
that the huge Italian Is made to or
der for the deadly-punching negro.
Despite his advantage In alse, reach
and experience, Prlmo's qhanoea of
avoiding Louis' knockout punch were
not considered bright,
8ee Early Ending
The belief In well-informed ftstln
circles was that Camera, still shell
shocked from the terrific beating he
t;vk from Max Bner last summer,
would be lucky to last half a dozen
rounds.
Racial rivalry and the fact that the
fight occurs at s time when the gov
ernments of Italy and Abyssinia are
In s dispute has prompted promoter
and police to co-operate in taking
unusual precautions against the poa-

stblltty of an outbreak among spec
t so tors.
Authorities minimized the prospect
of any disturbance, but more than
1000 uniformed men were due for
assignment to the stadium.
Both principals were kept tinder
guard aa a result of unsubstantiated
rumora that attempts would be made
to "aproach" one camp or the other.
The commotion was reminiscent of
the old days when no big heavy
weight fight was complete without
alleged underwold activity, threatened
arrests or attempts to put something
In somebody's tea.
The preliminaries start at 7 p. m.
and the main bout Is slated for not
later than 9 p. m. There will be no'
broadcast.

HOW THEY

BY CITY BOOSTERS
Donkey baseball, said to be Ameri
ca's newest, wildest and most "fun
maktngest" sport, la scheduled lor
a debut In Med ford July 8, & and 10
In a series of games between teams
selected from local service clubs and
lodges.
Members of the 20-30 club who
are sponsoring the event, announced
that tentative plans are to have the
games at Van Bcoyoc field, where
the soft ground will probably prove
welcome to the backs and shins ot
the city dada who are expected to
take part.
Donkey baseball has become the
rage, according to Herb Brown, who
Is directing arrangements for the
local prevue, since Jack Bartlett in
troduced it at the World Fair. He
has a herd of well-educated, but
characteristically stubborn donkeya. j
which have been trained in the rules i
and regulations of baseball.
Each player Is seated on one ot
the beaatA, with the exceptions ol
the catcher, pitcher and shorustop.
and the results, during the course
of an otherwise regulation baseball
game, are said to be mlrthquaklng-
The game la absolutely, guaranteed
to keep one laughing from atart to
finish, and especially so when the
players are prominent local business
men.
Negotiations are under way to se
lect three teams, possibly from the
chamber of commerce, the Elks lodge
and the Eagles lodge, one game to
be played on each of the three days
of the series. Negotiations are also
underway to have Mayor Porter pitch
the Initial ball.
The donkeys are unshow, assuring
that no player be hurt, and the
long-eared quidrupeds are trained
probably much better than the con
testants will be In the wiles of the
sport.
