The Story Of Joe Brown

By DON SMITH

Houston, May 15.

The world's lightweight champlon leaned back against the trunk of the big oak tree and sucked a lemon. He had just finished several hours of hard work before a crowd of better than 250 fight fans who had turned up at his YMCA camp to watch him tune up for his title defence against Ralph Dupas of New Orleans. "Man, I've fought main events before crowds not much larger than this one today," the Kille negro from Baton Rouge, said wryly.

Perhaps Joc Brown whs thinking of the time in 1947 when he fought and lost-tu later featherweight champion Sandy Saddler for a purse $400.
