Conn no chance tvith Louis Orv Matthews leads ten man Sooner track team here for dual BY HENRY McLEMORE. LOS ANGELES. (UP). It being birthday, when the truth is especially sacred, the chances are that Gene Tunney was telUng the absolute truth when he told me that Billy Conn belong in the same ring with Joe Louis. Here In California to enjoy our weather for a few weeks, the former heavy'W'eight champion of the world says it is absolutely ridiculous to expect the 175 pound Conn to last more than a few rounds against the heavyweight champion, "I saw the story you had quoting Jimmy McLamin as saying he thought Conn would defeat Tunney told me.

understand McLarnin feeling that way, because I know that he was a magnificent boxer himself and understands the game thoroly. What does he think Conn is going to win with He is 25 pounds lighter than Joe, ha.sn’t much of a punch, have as much experience, and while he is faster on his feet than Louis, as fast with his hands. And the hands, you know, are what you hit and win with. The next time you see McLarnin give him my best and tell him like to make a little bet with All Want To Bet. But not going to tell Lamin.

He is sick and tired of people wanting to bet on Louis since he went on record as liking Conn. "Everywhere I go everybody wants to get a bet Jimmy told me. get a letter or two every day telling me to name my price and get my dough Tunney thinks lack of a punch will be the chief reason for his early downfall at the hands of Louis. "Louis is a terrific fighter at all Tunney explained, put him in there with a fellow he knows hit very much and he is vicious. Knowing that Conn hurt him, Joe will undoubtedly bull his way in close, swarm all over his lighter foe, and beat him down in a round or two.

Remember John Henry Lewis, another light heavyweight champion who tried to make a go against Louis? Well, in my opinion Johnny Henry was a better fighter than Conn is, but he never had a Tunney ranks Louis as one of the great fighters of all time. "Joe is the greate.st right hand hitter who ever Gene says. "There never was anyone who threw a right hand punch with the devastating power that Louis does. Not only is it a tremendous punch, but he throws it so fast. That is the real reason for greatness.

His speed with his hands. left hook was a bit faster than but when you take both hands into consideration, he is the fastest puncher the game has Service Man Next Champ. Tunney believes that the next heavyweight champion will come from the army, the navy or tlie marine corps. "Tens of thousands of physically fit young men in army camps will turn to boxing for he says. out of that vast group there is sure to come a rugged, ambitious, smart youngster who will eventually dethrone the veteran Louis.

I never would have been a professional fighter but for the opportunities to learn the game afforded by army Tunney feels that the matches they are making for Louis these days are ridiculous. He blame the he would be foolish not to make such easy money. But he does blame the promoters, or rather, the promoter, Mike Jacobs. is just the opposite of Tex Rickard as a promoter. Tex was always trying to build up a fellow to knock down the champion.

He nursed and coddled prospects. But Jacobs rushes newcomers straight into bouts with Louis, with the result that they are has-beens before they ever had a chance to get Flu hits Oklahoma trackmen Favor Hiiskcrs indoor test BY WALTER E.

For a long stretch of years Jones has been winning games; with the single wing back forma -1 tion which is far from a three or 1 four or even a dozen play setup. In fact, there are a hundred or more variations that can be used. Defense Steps Up. Jones holds that the defense has stepped up in the last few years.

Not that the offense has lost power, but that more and more defensive setups have been plotted to meet all fxmdamental types of wherq the play variations come cross up almost any type of defense used against a system. And if at all possible, be seeing a lot of boys wearing the Scarlet next fall in actual combat, for Jones is one to keep an eye on the future. Recalling the loss of all but two of his first team of last fall, Jones commented: "When you substitute like we did last year sometimes sacrifice something in the timing of plays for a period, but worth it when the next season arrives and you have the benefit of Despite his wholesale lo.ss of veterans, the major is hopeful for next fall if all the boys keep eligible and the draft losses are not heavy.
