CHARLOTTETOWN Says Louis’ Behavior J eopardizing Popularity By Whitney Martin NEW YORK. Dec. 1s —(AP)-As one who eyes the impressive array oi silverware surrounding our plate at l banquet in J0me bewilder. merit. and sneaks sideiong glanoeg at our neighbors to be sure we thllVE grabbed the right eating tool. may- be we're not in a good pgslflgn m give advice on public behavior. But because we have admired the guy so much and don't like to see h‘m clo anything which will un- dermine the prestige he has ncmm. ed in the last decade through his impeccable dmieanor and modest words, we'd like to tell Joe Louis hll actions and speech since his last title defence are , jeopardizing his popularity. The first crror was noted im- mediately following the bell ending‘ the fight with Jersey Joe Wolcott. Louis headed for the ropes as if the ring was going to explode any sec- ond ond hr- wanted to be among those absent. If he was befuddled. which we don't think he was, t-hcro would hnvc been some excuse for it. He must have kno-wn it would be a close decision. and if it went against him. the least he could do would be to congratulate the winner and new champion. lle said he was disgusted with] hlnself, which is undorstandablsxl But that docsnt altcr the fact. hoi should have remainrd in the ring! uutll the verdict wias announced. l l-lc didn't say anything in his‘. drei-sinc roan belittlin" Wolcott,’ possibly because in belittling an opponent who had given hiim such n battle would make the champion ihiimself look even worse. I-Te Just belittled his own performance. And if he needed any help in doing that there were several thousand spee- tators ready to volunteer. Hi3 statements since then have been slightly out 0f character, however. Maybe he's bccn coached to take part in a scheme to force Walcott to agree to a small per- centage of the gate in the nextl meeting. Allywuy, instead of coiling right out and saying he wants Walcott and nobody else as his next oppon- ent. thus proving he fears no mail. he says the next opponent doesn't necessarily have to be Walcoit, and mentions light heavyweight chognp- ion Gus Lcsnevlch as a possibility. That's sheer honey. and we hat-e to sec Louis a party i0 it. So many thought that Walcott really won that if Louis were to meet anyone else he would be accused of dodging the rightful challenger. Louis has ton much pride for that. This isn't the Louis we have come to know in t-lic last 10 years. The Louis we knew asked no quest- ions about any opponent, bellttled "0 00901161“. dodged no opponent . He didn't quibble ovor what man he wing to fight, or balk a-t a, return bout with any (rppflnelit. All he wanted to know was the time and place. and he'd be there. l-Ie met every man who could be considered a possible contender, and a few others for good measure. People admired this in hon. 20 Per Cent Or Nothing, Strauss Tells Walcott By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK. Dec. iii-ilk?»- Sol Strauss, whose dander rises at the drop of a writ, declared with desk-thumping emphasis to- day that Jersey Joe Walcott either can fight Joe Louis again next June for 20 per cent of the net receipts or remain in Camden, N. J.. with his memories. Sol, acting head of the Twent- ieth Century Bporting C1ub,sound- ed as though he meant it. l-lc feels deeply hurt. that Jersey Joe and his official family have turned on him liltCl‘ he gave them their big opportunity. "Nevcr-never-never!" he explod- en when asked if there was any chance he would grant Wulcott tlic 30-30 split in the spoils that Jersey Joe demands for a return bout with the heavyweight chom- pion. "Certainly we had a written agreement that they would split 30-30 in a. return fight. in the ev- ent ivalcott won the title. “But Walcott didn't win the de- cision. Louis did. and he's still the champion and entitled to the champions share." Strauss said he had seen none of the Wulcott crowd since the night of the fight 11 days ago. when he went to Jersey Joe's dressing room to congratulate him on his great showing. All he knows since then 1s what he has read in the papers. He refused to discuss Felix Bocchlcchio, the Camden promoter. who appears to have (merged. as WalcotUs chief spokes- man. "Should I got to them with my hat. in my hand?" Sol shouted. “I say not. If Walcott wants to fight for the championship again he will have to come to me and ac- cept my terms. lie not only will have to take 20 per cent, but he will have to sign a contract tu defend the title for .th.e Twentieth Century Club in the event he wins. "If he doesn't, I'm not Just threatening when I say there will be another man in the ring with Louis next June. Joe ‘mentioned Gus Lesnevich. I-ie’: not the only one. There's Oile Tandberg and Eszard Charles and Joe Bsksi. Remember, I'm the one who gave Walcott his chance when every- one said I was crazy. One writer said I should be thrown in Jai. for charging $80. Now what do they say? “Why should Walcott think he's worth more than 20 per cent‘! That's what Billy Conn got for fighting Louis the second time. MaxSchmeiing got 00 for his sec- ond fight with Joe. end he was a former champion. Is Waioott worth more than those two?" Strauss stressed that. to increase Walcott's cut to 20 per cent iron the 15 he received for the first bout, they were reducing the champion! share from 45 to 40. Strauss said. I180, that he is ready to give Walcott a slice of the radio profits the next time. Walcott Plane Sick -........ NIfW YORK. Dec. 16- (Ari- Jersey Joe Wsloott, the veteran Camden, N.

Pose Threat PARIS, Dec. 16—iR.euters)—- North Americans who scofl m, European ice hockey players can pause now and ponder this opin- ion: If Canada. or the United States expect to shine in the 1948 Winter Olympics they should send the best amateur team they can find to St. Moritz, Switzerland. This, say continental observers, is because “ize-ockee". as the game is popularly known in mos: European capitals, has come along. way since the early '30's when a few Canadians were "imported" to teach hockey fundamentals. Last winter, for instance, the United States sent a team from Boston to represent them in the so-called world's amateur cham- pionships in Prague. With little more than bright uniforms and enough sticks to go round. Boston lost more games than it won and by the time they reached Prague. reinforcements had to be "air mailed." But even the subsequent ali- star Americans were outclassed. particularly by the burly lswn tennis club team of Prague. cap- tained by the Davis Cup net star, Jaroslnv Drobny. Czech, Swiss, Italian, Hungarian and Swedish teams have perform- ed here this winter sgalnst the Paris Racing Club team. The lo- cals have beaten them all but. the Racing Club is an all-Canadian aggregation, except for two sec- ond-string French players. With such established perform- ers as Ossie Carnegie of Toronto, Manny McIntyre and Mush Moore- housc of Fredericton, N. 8.. Paul Herbert and Roland Forget of Montreal. "Le Racing" ins the nucleus of s good senior Canadian team. Carnegie still packs most oi the craft, speed and power which made him one of Canada's most sought- aiicr amateurs u. few seasons ago, but even so he and his experienc- ed helpmates have not been win- ning easily. The pick of this year's contin- ental visitors were those repre- senting the Prague First Lawn Tennis Club. The Czechs were big. fast and hockey-wise. At least one forward kept bor- ing in to pick up goal-mouth pass- es or rebounds; and the North Amerlcnn power play wasn't dc- sertcd. Next best was the Swedish "Aik" team from Stockholm and Swiss. Italian and Hungarian terms also showed up well individually but did not match the Czechs or Swedes on u. team basis. YEO TIIEATIIE I'll-TD A? ll! IATUI-DAI‘ "WILIFIIE" With T!!!
