Bf proouctlon In whole or In pari strictly forbidden) POM.TON LAKE, N. June 14 "Next Thursday morning I will be the heavy weight champion of the world." Dressed In a white shirt, grey flannel trousers and an old cap turned skywards from his forehead, Billy Conn, the fighting Irishman from Pittsburgh, uttered these words to your reporter this after noon with all the apiomo oi a aip lomat stating that he likes a nice hot cup of tea.

Midst the greatest excitement in the boxing world since Max Schmel ine trained for his second tight with Joe Louis at Spectacular, N. I came here today to una out from "Billy the Kid" in his own words how he was going to wrest the heavyweight title lrom louu in the Polo Grounds on Wednesday. June 18th. The picture of fine condition; Billy sottly but nrmly declared: am prepared lor any Kind oi fight that Louia makes. "If he rushes me, he will find himself swinging at the empty air.

If be electa to stay back and box that will be my dish! And contrary to published reports. I. am not going to make the mistake of starting off slowly in this ngt. I will be warm when 1 start I'll cet hoder as 1 go along and I'll be sizzling at the finish. "Louts.

I am afraid, will be thoroughly "Now. don't get me wrong about overconfidence. No one has ever accused me ef being a braggart. win all mv f1pht in tha rinr. umkl toil llval'i flt that I'linUa could lick luis.

Here, at last, is my chance. And put it down in! your book that 1 said 1 am not going to miasl! "You ought to know that Louis has won most of his fights on punch alone. In my opinion he has never met a top notch boxer. I pride myself on being a student of scientino boxing. 1 may not punch as bard as Joe.

but by the same token, he has spent so much time learning to punch that he has neglected to learn all tho fundamentals of boxing. "Moreover, in his laat few fights, Louis has demonstrated that be is no longer the 'Brown Bomber' of the second Schmeling light. This has made me more positive than ever that I wil be declared 'the winner and new champion lSow Joe Louis in person must be accused of making me some what skeptical of the words of a challenger for the heavyweight champion crown. "I still wanted Mr. Conn to teu me how this ma sic works.

WelL brother, hold on to your For here he comes with the details. Bill Conn still broadcasting: "Joe is going to see speed. I'm not going to stumble around the ring like Abe Simon. Pastor, Go doy or Farr. For the first time Joe is going to be up against real boxing ability, both offensive and defensive.

"He is going to look like a truck horse trying to keep away from my left jab and hook. And every one Knows mil move just as easily and swiftly to either right or left. He never pitted his wits against in is Kind or shiftiness. I am not going to worry about Joe hitting me. I've been hit by many others and I know that I can take It becauae they mostly hit me either on the move, my elbows or my glove.

That's where boxing aouuy counts. Six fighters went the distance with the champ, didnf they The Dig ainerence in my case win be that with every passing three ute rouna, win oa that much nearer to the heavyweight championship of he world!"
