After matching the great Max Baer look more like Mickey Mouse we are going this evening to take a sedative at Madison-square Gar den.

At this arena to-night Tons Canzoneri will defend his world light-weight title against a youth called Al Roth.

Nasty Taste

We are looking forward to Can- zoneri and Mr. Both to take the fnasty taste of the last· "heavy-

weight battle out of our mouth.

These may seem harsh words. but are bitter afcis, and maybe the reason that the taste stili - remains is that Max Baer, who was an undisputed non-contest- ant in that battle of no cen- tury, did not give folks in this country a run for their money. If the word "run" comes into the question, then the only man who did “run” was Max Baer.

It may seem a little late in the day to comment on it, but people who contributed to the million dollar gate are still hating the fact that they paid for something which they did not go forth to see meaning that although they thought the inherently great big Baer would be beaten, they hon estly expected him to go down fighting":"

Which proves how dishonest one's thoughts can be.

Best wisecrack. Aspectator leaving the ringside: "Joe Louis got married before the fight. He could have got married during the fight and still won it

Best simile of Louis's accurate ponching. — Tom Lairds, sporting editor from San Francisco: "This Yellow Louis can throw 'em fast and still thread a needle with either glove."

Following these gems we must give our own with due humility.
