Joe Louis' Boxing Title

John Henry Lewis Wants A Try

In suggesting that as tough an op- ponent as any who could be found for Joe Louis would be a member of his own race, John Henry Lewis, I musi have been anticipating something. writes Geoffrey Simpson.

way

For last month the Americon scrumbled-car industry

agog over the news that John Henry had uppiled to Mike Jacobs for a place in his eliminating tournament, the win- ner of which is to meet Louis.

According to J, H, he will cheer- fully toss aside his world light- heavy-weight championship it grant- ed a chance of disputing with Louth, I dare say. There's bushels of dollars in it.

On merit there is no question that Lewis would be a worthy opponent for Louls. His work against Len Harvey in London advertised him as a great all-round boxer, but my the Aght will never guess is that take, place,

Does not Mike Jacobs hold all the heavy-weight strings, and in it not true that, the biggest promoter is also manager of the champion?

Doubtless John Henry is regarded as a dangerous customer, Just as Max Schmeling was so regarded when he wn squeezed out of a Louis match Just June.

In addition, there is the question: Should Negro fight Negro for the championship-and incidentally two Negroes whose names (in America) are both pronounced "Lewis"?

Such a meeting would, however, be a boon to the wireless commenta- tors. who, at any stage of the strug gle, Tulld -announce, Lewis Is in front," and be right every time.
