Dominion's attack, the biggest question being,

"Will spin overcome speed?"

Long, lean, tireless Bill O'Reilly, with his whirling legs and arms, his ability to turn the ball even on hard Australian wickets, his cunning changes of pace, his speed off the pitch, will I expect, { have to do most of the bowling.

"Idleness does not agree with Louis." Jacobs explained. "The Schmeling fight proved that. If you don't keep him busy be gets loggy. He loses his edge. Even when he's training, his handlers have to keep after him to prevent him from sleeping too much. So it's up to us to keep him busy-if for no other

Jacobs, of the 20th Century Club and Hippodrome, who has a 4-year contract on the "Brown Bomber's services, added that Louis also could make plenty of money by keeping busy, and that this was an important angle in the carter of any boxer- particularly for one of the greatest drawing cards the ring ever-
