Loughran Raises
Broken Hand Issue
In Baer-Louis Fight
Doubts If Louis Gould Have
Beaten Baer At His Best.
London, England, Nov. 30,
(ANP)—The ghost of the Max
Baer-Joe Louis fight at New
York in September was taken for
a public walk this week when
Tommy Loughran, former light
heavyweight champion and danc
ing master of the ring in England
now to take on the local crop of
tfst fodder, spoke for public print
on the “real” story of the rise and
fall of the Livermore Larruper.
According to Loughran, Baer
was still bothered with those egg
shell hands when he tackled the
Detroit Destroyer. Tomimy swears
this is so, despite examinations by
disinterested physicians prior to
the bout who declared Max’s
fists were as fit as they would
ever be The American says in
juries sustained by the Californ
ian prior to the Braddock battle
had never healed
roo rroua to leu
“Before the Braddock fight,
Max confided in me he had broken
his hands while training,” Lough
ran asserted. “He was so cock
sure of himself, however, that he
would not tell the public. He was
going on with the fight confident
he had nothing to beat. J sug
gested that he postpone the fight
until his hands healed. Max act
ually tried to do this. But he was
persuaded to go through with the
fight to schedule.
“Against Joe Louis Max was
still bothered with his fists. He
simply couldn’t put up a fight. He
told me after the Braddock bout
he would not fight again for a
year. That would have given him
time to get his hands fit and
hardened.
“I doubt if Louis would have
beaten Baer at his best.”
Lauds Brown Bomber
“I saw Louis topple Camera.
‘IHe’s a great fighter as Is the
Detroit Bomber. What I like
about hirr< so much is he’s a na
tural fighter. Everything come
easily to him. He looks the part.
He covers very quickly and easily.
No movement is wasted. And he
punches very hard.
“Joe Louis is the kingpin of the
lot. That mi|eh is just about
.certain. I can’t see any of the
others back there to touch him.”

SPORTS CHATTER
ON PACIFIC COAST
By Byron “Speed” Reilly
(For ANP)
San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 30.—
John Henry Lewis, new light
heavyweight champion of the
world will fulfill the contract that j
will send him against an out
standing opponent in this city at
Dreamland auditoriurry shortly.
Lewis was signed for a fight
by manager Gus Greenlee just be
fore the pair left for New York
to meet Abe Feldman at Coney
Island. Promoter Palazola in
sisted that John Henry return and
go through with the bout and
when he failed to do so, Lewis
was suspended by the California
commission, which takes in Chi
cago and New York. The local
promoter was consulted before the !
title match was signed and agreed
to waive his prior contract if the
ring star returned to t h e coast,
win, lose or draw. The same pro
cedure was used in the case of
the New York Garden, who held
a contract on the ex-champ, Rob
Olin.
However, there may be some
conflict, as both organizations
want to use the same foe against
Lewis, — his recent conqueror,
Feldman. Lewis has wired that
he Is returning for the catch in
I December, but having an open
date on November 27, the Dream
land head hopes to stage the bout
on that date.
“Tiger” Jack Fox, who holds
Maxie Rosen bloom even and
shellacked him in his last two
starts, arrived here last week
looking for work. With his two
mentors, Lonnie Austin and Hal
Morris, hurling defies to any 175
pounder or heavyweight on the
coast, Fox is training daily and
ready to step in the ring at a
minute’s notice. Fox is a much
improved fighter since h i s last
appearance here, when he lost to
Red Barry. The “Tiger’s” stable
mate, Bob Milsap, is also having
no little trouble finding oppon
ents.
Wirt Ross and his two Pacific
Coast champions, Young Peter
Jackson and Henry Armstrong, ar
rived in Oakland last week. Jack
son, king of the 135-pounders,
shellacked Gaston LeCadre,
French champ in his last Oakland
start, while Armstrong, head man
in the California featherweights,
faces Leo Lomelli, Mexican star,
in an 8-round match on the East
Bay Club show at the Oakland
auditorium.
Billy Newman, manager of Leo
(KO) Kelly, arrived here from
Australia Monday—alone. With
Newman was supposed to have
been his hard hitting colored
light heavyweight, but I learned
that the promoters made Kelly
such tempting offers to stay, that
he remained to accept four bouts
at a $1,000 per bout. Clippings
from the Anipode country show
that the colored Deacon-boxer is
one of the most popular boxers to
ever visit that country and they
are still talking of his great bout
with Ambrose Palmer, light
and heavyweight champion, now
in England.
DIXIE DOPE
By “Melancholy” Jones
(For ANP)
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 30, (ANP)—
Scoring for the year’s greatest
upset in SIAA football circles, the
Fla. A. & M. college “Rattlers”
eked out the vaunted Tuskegee
Institute Tigers recently at Tal
lahassee, Fla., in a bitter contest
that was not decided until the last
few seconds when Williams, Fam
cee fullback, placed a beautiful
placement kick through the up
rights for a 3-to-0 victory. In
many ways, Williams’ “ninth in
ning” boot was a duplicate of the
Frank Merriwell kick from the
field that wrecked Howard Uni
versity 9-to-6 in 1933 in Famcee’s
first “Orange Blossom Festival”
classic. Oddly enough, this same
young naan’s toe decided the 13
to-12 victory by Famcee over Vir
ginia State in last year’s classic
at Tallahassee. This December,
Famcee will play Kentucky State
in the Orange Blossom carnival.
Upsets, apparently, were the
order of the day last Saturday,
Clark University pulling what
was believed the impossible by
nosing out a formidable, highly
favored South Carolina State
eleven, 2-to-0. Carl Ray, Louis
ville, Ky., youth and All-Ameri
can prospect for ’35, blocked Sol
Johnson’s punt which the Caro
lina triple-threater recovered be
hind his own goal line, only to be
nailed by Langford and James,
Clark University guard and cent
er, and that gave the South At
lantans their margin of victory.

THINGS
THEATRICAL
(By Franklyn Frank)
(For ANP)
Music Hath Charms:
Twelve Negro jazz men started
improvising
Sweet pagan tunes that soothed
my anxious ears.
My woes were gone—the jazz
was hypnotizing,
For I was lulled to lands that
knows no tears.
With soft wierd melodies the
jazz men told
Of voodoo, jungle wiles, barbaric
arts.
And in their fierce refrains
could I behold
A land of tom-toms, brutes and
poisoned darts.
A jungle instinct surged within
my soul,
Made me a pagan in this civil
city.
I was a savage like the slavers
stole,
The crude black heathen civilized
men pity.
My kinsmen’s music woes me to
a state
That bids me cease to ponder
doom or fate.

Don Redman Doesn’t
Want To Compose
Don Redman, the rnckle beer
size orchestra leader, who has
just brought his touring troups to
New York after setting attend
ance records in St. Louis, would
much rather arrange other peo
ple’s good tunes than compose one
of his own. This in spite of the
success and popularity of such
pieces as “Chant of the Weeds”,
“How'm I Doin’,” “I Heard,” and
“Nagasaki."
“This composing is purely in
spirational, whereas I like work
ing things out,” the band man
confesses. “Take ‘Chant of the
Weeds’ for instance. I woke up
one morning with that whole
thing in m|y mind; I didn’t have to
work out a thing; there it all was.
I wrote it down quickly, and by
one o’clock the band was rehears
ing1 it. ilt didn’t catch on with the
public for a long time, but I didn’t
care, and then, when it did catch
on, the strange thing is that I
still didn’t care.
“But when I arrange tunes for
Paul Whiteman and other big
name bands, as well as for my
own, they have to compete with
other people’s arrangements of
the same tune, and that’s what I
call interesting work.”
Don also tooted his sax in sev
eral Duke Ellington recordings in
case you didn’t know. He played
USE
__ WE 3043 _
i n “Georgia Grind,” “East St
Louis Toodle-oo” and “Jubilee
Stomp.” He also arranged “Sen
sation” for Paul Whiteman, which
several years ago Edgar Jackson
mentioned as a step forward in
orchestral arrangements.
Paul had been after Don for sev
eral years to collaborate with Fer
di'e Grofe on a suite depicting the
history of the Negro jazz band.
Don says that some day they will
do it, but thus far he hasn’t been
so anxious. Just a case of hating I
to compose.
