Joe Is Not The Man The Writers Say New York City. . (CNS). .The man who has done the most for sports this year is not the heavy weight champion of the world, ac cording to the sports writers who vote on these things every year about this time. Joe Louis, who has been the champ since way before the Pilgrims came, and who will probably lemain in that condition until the next war, did not get enough votes to get him the nod. though he was in there all the way. The champ lost to a football player and if he feels badly about it, he should get some consolation in the knowledge that it wasn't personal. The boys probably considered the two fights in which Louis en gaged and decided that one-sided murder is not beneficial to sports by any stretch of the imagina tion. Joe suffered, in this case, from the poor calibre of the op- j position. Had one of his oppon ents been a real contender. Joe ;ould have shown more stuff, and he probably would have gotten :he distinction. From where I itand, it looks bad for Joe again rext year too, unless he gets cnocked out. f .. -— s “/( Pays To Look WeW* MAYO’S BARBER SHOP Ladies and Children’s Work A Specialty 2422 Lake Street ^ -/ -BEATRICE L.

The idea for the group came from Haroletta Garrison, whose mother Mrs. Harold A. Gar rison, is now sponsor of the club. To date, the club has given two concerts, presenting selection by the instrumental ensemble, direc ted by an adult (Robert B Tres ville, former army bandleader), by the chorus (under the leadership of Freita Shaw, film choral direc- ' tor) and solos by gifted individual members of the organization. The club also has made enough money to give three $100 scholarships to worthy young musicians. It has donated money to the Los Ange les Community Chest and has sent canned foods to Europe. This year the young people are making' do nations to orphanages, and will help other organizations. They in tend to buv a lot and to build their own clubhouse on it. In March, 19*5, when the grouo first came together there were 15 young people in it. Today there are 75. They have their own con stitution. will have a charter re t year and are planning a concert for the s ring of 1947. They have many offers from people who wish to manage them, but have not accepted anv of these offers as yet. They rehearse regularly, once a week and have ret a contrac tive model for the youag people of the community.
