But, a strikeout | CHICAGO, Ill, June 21. — The‘ World's heavyweight champmn.sh)p‘ tight between Joe Louis, challenger,! and James J. Braddock, defending, title-holder, set for Comiskey Park‘ here tomorrow night, moved Loddy toward its climax with calm indica-| tions polnting to an atttndance of ‘ 60,000. Louis is the favorite at odds oi three to one; one of the few times a challenger has ever made such a long odds favorite in a title bout. Braddock is in high spirits. Simultaneously with disclosure of a possible July junket to Pica- dilly, there was a prohounced switch in expert sentiment in favor of Louis’ chances to lift the heavy- weight crown from Braddock’s brow. The development of the program calling for the winner of Tuesday | night's fight to battle Tommy Farr, British champion, coincided well with authenticated reports that the Bomber had been under wraps. With betting commissioners in[ Chicago rating the Negro a thxee, to one favorite, fight writers, who| have been more wary than usual,| have about made up their minds to join in what looks lke a Louis| bandwagon. It is considered a co-| incidence with the. English talk| that Mike Jacobs has Louis under a long-term contract, whereas Braddock may be subjeect to legal; entanglements.

New Man on Rubber Manning, however, sigled to s Niemi from second and the day wi still dark for the Moose, Nelson rest- ing on third while Manning had reached second. The Black Sox call- ed a hasty conference and it was done for the nonce, Clancy Converse coming in to tce the rubber in his place Converse faced Erskine at the plate winding up with the heavy end of a 4 to 2 score. Third-sacker Werner also had u hand in the putting over of the first Moose run, laying down a tidy bun. in the nd inning to put Joe Snow across with the first marker of the ball game. From then on until the eighth inning, the battle was pretty much of a hurling duel between Jimmy Manning for Doug- las and Southpaw Johnny Smith for the Moose, though both chuckers called heavily on their support to get them out of tight spots. Many Threats The Paps made unfulfilled threats in the third and fourth frames,' and the Islanders worked their way | into scoring position in the fourth and fifth innings, only to see their efforts came to naught. In the fifth, Douglas filled the bases with only one away, but Werner grabbed Roller’s roller to force McKay at the plate and a pop fly retired the side. Game Sewed Up The first of the eighth was when the Moose sewed up the game squeezing across three runs when Tritz Schmitz led off with a single, Haglund bunted and was safe on Manning’s heave over first and An- drews dropped second basemen Me-| Kay’s toss cn Martin's grounder to! fill first and third while Schmitz romped home.

If Braddock is worried he con- ceals it, Jimmy has never been a great actor, It is reasonable to as- sume he is not losing any sleep. The air of Braddock’s camp is one of informality. There is a lack of tension. No troopers guard the champion. He is less protected than when was getting ready to meet |Baer for the title. Braddock always has insisted Louis i8 vulnerable. Even before Max Schmeling took the Bomber lapart a year ago, Jimmy said Louis was one man he could whip. The confident look Braddock is ace with' which he hopes to trump the challenger’s lead. The underdog role is not new |to Braddock. He has played that part so often (and so well) that he |likes it. Against Pete Latzo, Jimmy Slat- terq, Corn Griffin, John Ksnry Lewis, Art Lasky and Max Baer he entered the ring decideed the short-ender. But Jimmy upset 'em all. None, with the exception of Lewis, was much good after Brad- dock finished. It will be okay with Braddock if Louis is the big favorite when they the better, for the showdown. The balls strikes were worked to three and two; then, with the large turnout of fans at fever pitch and set for anything, Erskine lofted a lazy fly to Martin for the final out. Joe Snow, for the ona game o the day, led his side in batting; get- ting a single and a double in four trips, while Fritz Schmitz was righ behind him with two singles in five times up. Manning and McKay each got two for four for the Is- landers, while Claude Erskine pounded out two safeties in five tries.
