PXGE FOUTt MEDFORD HAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOKU OREGON. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24. 1935. BATTLE TONIGHT IS' FOR JOE Li Go With Baer Expected to Show Whether Negro One of Greatest of Prize Ring History, or Just Lucky By EDWARD J. NEII. (AsMielalril Prr Xnnrts Writer) POMPTON LAKES, N. J. (API foe Louis 1 either the grsetest lighter In all the history of heaTy welghts greater than Dempsey, Tun aey, Johnson, Jelfrles, Flt7,almmons. Oorbett or the victim of courage vHthnnt. annn direction, curse ot snnst fine young prlte tighten. If Louis, tho "sable sphinx," only m mn old. onlv 14 months of Joe ton in. professional prize fighting behind Dim, Is as good aa he looked to be knocking out 30 of the 34 men who have faced him, from the rankest of patooka up through Prlmo Car era and King Levlnsky, then he if- composite of all the great heavy weights of the past. It Jiiat doesn't esem possible that a boy ao young, go comparatively Inexperienced, could trade through that field with the terrific punching power the negro Sua shown, without being the great tot of them nil. Tnuls fins find It Easy. Even Dempaey couldn't whip box- tan, which Willie Median. Billy Miske onco. Bill Brennan, and finally Ocne Tunney, proved beyond ques tion. Tunney hud many troubled momenta end wsa whipped soundly by a middleweight, Harry Grob. be fore he found himself against Demp Hy. All pjont. fighters of the past hi ve encountered atumbl Ing blocks. But Louis, up to his duel with Mux Bt tonight In New York, has never met a mnn who pressed him. forced him to put on pressure, and Louts has fought boxers, sluggers, giants, Tcry type the ring knows, without turning a hnir. He comes up to this battle with ttie free-swinging Cnlifornlnn shy of Just one thing experience, Last March 28, lens than six months ago, he was working his way atesdlly up the heavyweight scale against Nstio Brown, tough fellow, but noth ing to shout shout. Ho knocked Brown down In the first round, failed ta finish him In ten. But he wes making progress. Now he's battling Baer, the rough est, toughest all-around fighting mnn In the heavyweight division, rd that even though Max did ream-puff hla wav out of the title In a sickening duel with Jimmy Braddock. Baer proved lie could take ri, then turn around and murder the dealer, when he demolished Max Bchmellng. He crushed Prlmo ear ners end King Ivlnky before Louis did, and Louis may have done it all the easier for having hsd finer as hie predecessor, A Hasty Rise. Joe JusJ; couldn't resist the temp tation to bntter down Carnem, and M a result there's nothing left but BBr. Perhaps he'll hammer hla way paet the great lover, and there will he nothing left In front of him, at SI. except Jimmy Braddock, and be yond Brad:!ock nothing at all. But If Joe doesn't get past Biwr. and I don't think he will, the ghosts of Art Lasky, Steve Hamas, Walter Nevmel. Ray Impellltlere, TVtmmy Loughrnn, and all the ret of the men he could be using to gain ex perience will rise to haunt both him and his managers. After all, ha didn't have to tackle Baer this soon. There were still fields far a 31 -year-old to conquer. He may be the nrrntest of all heavyweights. He mny flatten Bnrr. Tf he doesn't the glory glow is off him. And there waa no need at all of meeting the test now.

WJien dusky Jo Louis ewwis into the ring at the huge Yankee stadium In New York tonight, for his 18-round go with Max Baer, he'll hare solid block of Med ford fans behind him. In a "pick the winner" contest, conducted by the Golden West Brew ing company In this territory, which closes At 8 o'clock this evening, Joe Louis Is a strong leader. Of the 1300 entries, 816 caet their votes for a Loula win. Aeoerdlnc to this pre-flght poll, Loula will knock Baer Into ring eternity In the sixth. Baer la a alight favorite In the event of a decision, but few favor him to win If the battle ends before the tenth. Can Baer take It? Well, tf W. L. Vewter has predicted correctly. Butch er Boy Baer will take hla dive In the first round. On .the other hand Ralph Palmer of Portland predicts that Louis will be pushover early In the second. O. H. Thompson, local negro, and an ardent fan of young Joe Louis, snya that he has the "Inside dope" on the outcome. "Louis In the fourth, or I'll eat my hat," he proudly boasts. "Toots" Estes, wrestler, kho gives his address as Hawaii, picks aBer to be an easy winner, and would almost, stake hla championship belt on it. JOE'S 'GIRL' TO WITNESS BATTLE KEW YORK.

"It's up to Joe." said Marva Trotter. Tnat wss the nearest she could come to giving the precise hour at which she and the busting brown bomber will be married. The ceremony, win. lose or draw, and whether before or after the fight, will take place in an aptrement In Harlem's Sugar Hill. Miss Trotter rather hoped It would be before the fltjht. She seld she wasn't much of a cook. "I guean I could keep a person from starving to death, but r think Joe would rather eat In restaurants." ihe said. f Rcgue River ROGUE RIVER, .Sept. 33.-(Spl.

This department has a sneaking sus picion that Loula 'will take the fra- iCas, but bull heatedly remains In the Baer camp. Like practically everyone elae In town, we want to see Baer win. and our opinion Is possibly colored by that fact. But If one of those whistling, looping rights of Maxte's ever land on that black konk, the colored problem will decrease, for a while anyway. We still see something fishy In that Braddock fight of Baer's. If his hands were hurt, they haven't healed yet. But If he let Braddock stop him In anticipation of the big gate tonight, then his hands are probably all right. That may be shooting too much sa gacity to the Llvermore lad, but he apent some time running around Hollywood and may have picked up some of their characteristics. Surely, at any rate, there la more Interest In this fight tnan In any since the Dempsey-Tunney affairs. That is more the result of the low caliber of fighters since than the eu perority of the present crop, how ever. Baer has taken some good men. and has looked pretty sick against .some mediocre ones, , The Brown Bomber hasn't licked anyone very tough yet. But the onea he's taken, he's taken rather decisively. In a pick-the-winner contest being conducted by Snlder's dairy, there have been 1300 entries so far, and 800 of them like Louis to win by the K. O. route. Those anticipating a decision also favor tha colored De trotter. Mack Li Hard has announced that an effort will be made to bring Dan ny Savlch back to Medford. Savlch llkea Medford, and Medford, appar ently, likes Danny. Hla butchering Sonnenbergs are the neatest trick of the night any time he WTestles here, even If he did miss Joe Hubka a cou ple of weeks ago and slither out onto the floor and Into unconsciousness. That match with Toots Estes la still drawing comment. It will be a long time before a more nearly perfect physique Is seen thsn that worn by Estes. For perfect sym metry, his build would be hard to beat.' And his flashing speed arouses the thought that he'd make a swell adagio dancer. One of these kinds where he is supposed to pick up a girl and toss her around like chaff. His good looks should make him a favor ite In the field., While Toy Aho will have the weight advantage In the coming middle weight battle royal, many are picking Roland Warren to win. Warren Is somewhat older than the others and his ring experience Is expected to stand him In good stead. But try to remember what happened to Al Karaslck In the heavyweight dog fight. Knowing him to be psrtlcu larly dangerous, the others plied him at the start, and he hadn't much chance. If Johnny Soos hadn't sneaked up on Pete Belcastro's blind side and cold konked htm In the opening minute, the Russian Lion would have been the first to leave. And he knows aa much wrestling as j the rest of them put together. Woods and Wolfgang .both local grapplera. may team together against, the field. Someone has to or they'd all get killed. In that case, the fin ishing bout, with Just those two, should be faat and furious. Coach Bowerman can't get a game jfor Saturday. He says he's called all over southern, central, northern and eastern Oregon, aa well as California, and Is still wondering what to do with his Saturdays for a couple of weeks. The alumni may sign. BULLDOG GIVEN FURIOUS BATTLE PORTLAND, Sept. 34. P) Bulldog Jackson had to fight bak, furiously last night to gain two out of three J falls from Ernie Piluso of Portland, in a middleweight bout. The allpery Italian opened the at tack with a series of rough head lock and then gained the1 first fall from Jackson In 48 second with the Bull dog's pet hold, the hammerlock. Jackson used low punches to dou ble Piluso and gain tho second fall In 11 minutes. 48 seconds. Piluso 's Injured erm was the target for an other hammerlock which ended the match shortly. Her bParks, Sanadlan middleweight, gained two out of three falls from Jim Lamb, rough Greek. Be correctly corseted In an Artist Model by Ethelwyn B, Hoffmann.
