Braddock in the eighth round at Chicago and took the, world heavy- weight title. Louis was a great champion. He had a 12 -year reign until he abandoned the title in 1949, and then followed the tradition set by Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons, Jim Jeffries, and other greats of the- heavyweight division. He failed in a comeback attempt, at the ta hidsof a victory yotty careeveteran Braddock off athe reliewho, ollapparently pto beat Laughing Boy Max Baer for the title, hardly gave Joe his, greatest ring thrill. �,. Of all the men Louis met in: the ring he ha&hatred: for.-.. only one: Max SchmeIing. He hated hitt not because the I German had knocked him out, but because of the things Schmeling told reporters after the fight. Tlfe Black Uhlan claimed his victory was the natural triumph of a superior inwould claiimed,lackdcouaLoge again well intlligne ewas a foul fighter. (Schmeling is the only man who ever accused, Louis -of being a foul fighter.) Louis nursed iris' anger for two years, then iinniiy vented it In a bout never, equalled for ferocity and savagery. Loris landed 54 punches on Schmeling in the space of two minutes. As Louis stalked in, a tiger ready for the kill, the best the plainly -frightened Sehmeling could do to .protect himself was to lean his head and shoulders .outside the ropes. Louis, having no other target for a right hand that thudded and battered, pounded it to Max' side and back, until he screamed in a high pitched voice, "Genug! Genug! Genug!" It was then that a white-faced Max Machen, Schmeling's trainer, threw in the towel that referee Arthur Donnovan picked up to throw out of the ring. Seluneling was taken from his dressing room to a hospital. It was three weolts before he was able to leave. And that was the battle, we think, that gave Joe Louis' his greatest thrill yesiressuomissadwrpg to tforMrWinosM'*iwwileewsJ M Eimar.Ferguson, % Calvert Mouse, 431 Yonge St., Tarsals, DISTILLERS .LIMITED!
