TO IN ARMORY BOUT The PoUsh -German conflict ran true to form In the armory last night when Hans (Hitler) Bchulz, Nazi badman, conquered Joe Smollnskl, son of Poland, just about as quickly and easily as the relch military ma chine crushed Joe's native land. It must be said In Smollnskl's be half, though, that he put up a whale of a battle, and If It hadn't been for one of those freakish endings he might actually have beaten the huge German. As It happened, the match was all over In less than nine min utes, as SchuUe grabbed two straight tumbles. It was vicious while It lasted, wit neither grappler pulling a punch as they mauled each other around the arena. Schula got his first fall in five and a fraction minutes by vir tue of a crashing right hook to 6mo- unskla Jaw that dropped the big Pole to the floor. Bchulz then planted himself on top of the prostrate Po- lander for the fall. Just before Bchulz swung bis pay off punch Smollnskl was giving htm a new maneuver, seen here for tho first time. Joe had Bchulz' head clamped tight and was rubbing the letter's light ear along the top strand of the ring ropes, to the vast en joyment of the large crowd. That crowd, by the way, was 100 percent for smollnskl, a very unique situa tion. It appeared Smollnskl was on the verge of gaining a fall when Bchulz suddenly Jerked loose and fired his round-house right. It was a beauty, smashing full Into Joe's baby face and sending him limply to the car pet. Three minutes later Bchulz had his second and winning fall and again It occurred at the very moment ttmounskl seemed to have the situ ation well In hand. Joe was giving the uerman an unmerciful beating with right and left hand wallops to the head and body; such a beat ing, In fact, that Bchulz couldn't take It any longer and scurried for the ropes to escape. smollnskl caught Bchulz before he could clamber outside and started pulling him away from the ropes. Sclmlz held on for dear life, and Smollnaki heaved harder. Suddenly Bchulz came loose and down they ootn went, with Smollnskl on the bottom and his shoulders level with the canvas. There was nothing for Rf Earl Yoakley to do but count Joe out. Dave Levin, former heavyweight champion making his first appear ance nere. battled to a draw with Oeorge (Wildcat) Wilson In the mid dle event. A series of reverse body slams In the third round, followed by a body press, gave the handsome, clean-wrestling ex-champ the first tumble. Wilson came back In tho sixth round to equalize the match. using a bouncing body scissors to pin Levin. , It was a fine match. Levin spent considerable time working on Wil son's arms and logs and tho ex-football star retaliated with potent scis sor and arm holds. Not once did Wtl- I son cut loose with his sonnenberg. 1 Levin apparently being too clever to allow himself to get In position for the maneuver. In another sparkling bout, Billy Venable ued reverse step-over too holds to defeat Taro Ito. two falls to one, in tho opener. Venable's first fall came In the second round when Ito was forced to give up to save his foot from being broken. A com bination arm scissors and stretch gave the clean Japanese grappler the second fall in the third heat, but Venable wound thlnes up In the fourth with another reverse step-over toe clamp. PLAYER MAKES IMPRINT UPON BOSS WITH FOUL INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. IB. (API A baseball player for the Louisville Colonela made a real Impression on his boss but Isn't too hsppy about It.

Main LOUIS PREDICTS HE'LL KAYO PASTOR IN FIVE ROUNDS Champ Holds Challenger in Contempt Bob .Plans to Outbox Bomber Fight Slated for 20 Rounds DETROIT, Sept. 19. (AP) Joe Louis, ready to defend the world's heavyweight championship agalnat Bob Paator tomorrow night, haa con tempt and hatred In his heart for his challenger. Personal feeling rarely haa played any part In Louis' fights, but the negro title holder haa no liking for Pastor because of statements at tributed to him and his manager, James J. Johnaton. since Pastor sur prisingly stayed the 10-round limit with Joe In their battle In New York In January. 1937. Louis Confident Louis la determined to prove pas tor was extremely lucky to last the ten rounds. He la supremely confi dent of stopping Pastor within five rounds. The champion places thla time limit on the duration of the bout, even ahould paator attempt to run away from him. The champion aald: "I'm going to catch Paator Just" as fast aa I can. There ain't no use me foolln' around with him. The sooner I catch him the sooner my work will be finished." Tomorrow night's battle, scheduled for 30 rounds, will be the first over that route In 30 years, since Jeas Willard won the heavyweight crown from Jack Johnson In Havana in 1916. Supposedly, that distance fa vors pastor, who Is convinced he will out-flnlsh Louis because of his defensive skill and experience gained in longer fights. Pastor aaya Louie can easily be bewildered by feinting. causing him to miss his blows, blink hts eyes ond throw up his hands In an Instinctive defensive gesture. Pas tor aaya he will take advantage of that momentary befuddlement with offensive blows of his own. Pastor Bests Paator. Idle alnce last Thursday In an obvious effort to gain weight, breaks camp at Brighton, Mich., to day to move Into the battleground. He will hide away In a hotel here until time to weigh In. Manager Johnston said that Pastor. In re fraining from boxing, was merely fol lowing a custom of a long rest period before a fight. Dse Mall Tribune want ada.
