N0 Deal Made For Gordon Drillon Yet

TORONTO, Sept. 25—(CP>—-.Dlck Irvin, coach of the Montreal Can- adiens. talked rapidly for five hours here today and at the end of tiiltt time still lilidii't made a doul for Uurdon Drillon.

Irvin's talking purtiier was coach Hap Dav bf the Toronto Mimic Iieafs, a pupil of Irvin tvhcn the silver-haired Rieglnan was Loaf coach and Dav a player. lt was plain from the conversation that Leafs don't want to get rid of their slow-moving 20-goal man so much that they'll give him away.

Chicago Black Hawim also were reported dickering for Drillon as the two-day session of the National Hockey League ended. Toronto re- portedly won't sell Drillon. but wants another top-notch plnyer in trade. The big Moncton-born wing- er. who scored 23 goals for Toronto last year to lead the club in thnt department. fell into disfavor with Icafs last spring for lackndrtislcal performances. It was decided then he would be traded or sold.

Great Racing Program Hea 7721's Afternoon

_ For the final time this season the familiar word “Go” will be heard at the Exhibition Grounds as the Garden of

the Gulf Goodwill Race program enters

its second and

final day with four classes scheduled. And what a meeting

i0day’s promises to be.

Thursday racing fans saw a four class program that for close, nerve-tingling finishes could hardly be diuplicat- ed. Today one has just to glance over the list of entries in the big ad on this page to get an idea of what is in store

for them. 25 entries in four cl

asses, composed of the best in

the Maritimes will take the word and in each and every class just try and pick a winner. In the feature free-for-all pace many may think that the sensational Dudey Patch

will have a little bit over the that speedy son of Calumet G

field but in there with her is rattan, All Grattan who when

right will take a lot of beating; in addition there is Victor Lee and Tracey Hanover, two that can turn on the steam

and turn it on plenty.

Then there is the 2.19 Trot and Pace, the Classified Trot in which anything may happen and 2.26 Trot and Pace that is as unpredictable as any class ever put to-

geiher.

The track today will be lightning fast; the horses are

tuned to their highest pitch

and all that remains are the

sensational duels that will be witnessed in each and every heat. It will be a fitting climax to a great season of racing

so don’t miss it.

Races will get underway will glance at the ad on this horses will get away in the there.

War Secretary Stimson Cancels Heavyweight Bout Between Louis And Conn

wasnnvorou, Sept.

25—-(AP)—-The heavyweight

L

plonshfp

fight between Joe Louis and Billy Conn, scheduled for Oct. 1%, was can-

cclli-il today by War Secretary Henr

y Stimson on the grounds that it

conflicts with “the standards and interests of the army.” Ending the 24-hour investigation he began yesterday after announ-

cing hc was “shocked" over some "details"

the bout which Wll m be

held in New York's Yankee Stadium, Stimson ordered Sgt. Lou]; 5nd

CpL Conn “returned at once to their military du

The proposed return match of o

ties."

ne of the most spectacular heavy-

wciglut title tussles of recent years was wiped off the calendar with $300,. 000 worth of tickets already sold or ordered and with a 81.000000 gate In prospect. The War Secretary's statement was issued as the two soldier-

heavywvcights were climbing into th

e rings at their respective training

camps to go through their daily boxing chores.

Stimson issued his order after I. series oi‘ conferences with War De- partment men and officials of War Boxing, Inc. the organization set up w rlin the bout. He had confelnxd for several hours over various as- pects of the arrangements. among them the plan to deduct $135,451 from the gate to pav debts listed a- gainst Louis and Conn.

Of this sum. $50,805 W88 a debt Louis said he owed Mike Jacobs. who was promoting the fight at the request of the War Department and War Boxing, Inc.; $34,500 was owed to Jacobs by Conn, and. $41,146 was owed by Louis to John Roxboroiigh. one of his co-managers.

Attending the conferences with Siiiilson were Mal-Gen. A. D. Sui-lbs, head of the War Depart- niciit Public Relations; John Kier- an, h-cuzl of the sports writers com- iiiiiic of Wm‘ Boxing. lnC-Z Ray McCarthy, War Department oo-or- tiiiiatoi" of sports. and John Rieddy, utluliicv 101' War Boxiing. Inc.

At iLic conclusion of the meetings, Stimson announced that "the statio- ards and IIILJTESLS oi the army do itol. permit the proposed contest to be curried out."

“there is no reflection upon the principals." Stimson added. “furth- orillol-e, the army aDlJfeClflW-fi that Louis has heretoiore generously contributed his eilorts botn to the aiiny ltiltl the navy wlitiout return.

"I regret that I necessary to disagree with decisions oi lvlr. John lueran and his assoc- laws, who have given their devoted and patriotic S€l'Vl0<S to assist the Almy Emergency Relief."

In New XOIK, Jacobs had no conlment except to say that since ne was promoting the right under the direction of War Boxing. Inc. any slili/nlilcliit would have to come from Lflill. (JYHHlllZiil/IOII.

"wur Boxing, 1nc., asked me to licip ov proniuiiiig this iigiii. to ntlkc n luti: suin of nioncy ior Ariny Emergency xicllcf," JEICODS ad- dczl. "l tried w do just that. Ir the ilgnt is culled cli-yveil. then. its on. As iar as the money I've laiu out is concerned-War Boxing ask- co ine to lay it oiit and said it would reimburse me."

As soon us ivoru was received of the cancellation. the fighters made arrangements ic close their train- iniz cantps and return to duty.

"Iin terribly sorry about it." said Louis who was rounding into con- dition at his Greenwood Lake (N. Y.) tiuiiniiig base for his third strrtgiit defence of his heavyweight championship for the benefit of war relief. Except for the principals’ debts and promotional and training expi nscs. the gate was to have gone to Army Emergency Relief. Esti- niutcs as to how much the relief or- ganization would get ran from 8500.- uto to $000,000.

Last January. Louis fought Buddy Baer and gave his entire purse to Navy Riellei. Two months later. he knocked out Abe Simon and turned 111's entire Day~clieaue over to Arm! lei‘,

To Conn. who was confident he could win the heavyweight crown lrcm Icuis this time. the cancell- ation came as a. "terrible disa-D- pointineiit."

"’l‘liut‘s Just my luck." the Pitts- blirg Irish lad moaned at his camp at Jacobs‘ Rumson (NJ-i estate.

Thus, one of the most controver- sial heavyweight title tussles of all time was erased, at least tieimDor- Bl'lIV_ and probably for as long as thc Wfll‘ huts. The first develop- ment in the affair occurred on June l8, 1941 ln the first meeting between the two.
