knocking out 30 of the 34 men who

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

Tnuls fins find It Easy.
Even Dempaey couldn't whip box-

Ocne Tunney, proved beyond ques

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

March 28, lens than six months ago,
he was working his way atesdlly
up the heavyweight scale against
Nstio Brown, tough fellow, but noth

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,

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

Joe JusJ; couldn't resist the temp

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

be the nrrntest of all heavyweights.

PICK LOUIS FOR
EARLY VICTORY
(By John W. snider.)
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. Sept. 34. 0P1 A fem-
j nine heart will fultter t the ring-
mae Ionian i. a joe and Max
Baer sock out an answer as to which
la the better man.
Maybe It'll be Joe Louia bride.
"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.

Line up and take your choice. To
night la the end of arguments as to
, who will take the Baer-Loutt fight.
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.
