LOUIS-CARNERA FIGHT TONIGHT TO DRAW CROWD Detroit Negro Slight Favorite To Whip Giant Italian New York. June 25. — (U.R) - The pugilistic paths of Joe Louis, Deloit's unbeaten negro with the dynamite fists, and Primo Camera. Italy's giant former heavyweight champion, cross tonight in a 15round bout in Yankee stadium. Fight fans rolled into New York today from Chicago, Pittsburgh. Washington, Detroit. Philadelphia, and other cities attracted solely by the prospect of seeing one sight —Camera’s big frame, 6 feet, 7 iaches and 25S pounds, stretched on the canvas for the count by the Xl-year-old negro who has been fighting professionally less than a year. Promotor Mike Jacobs expects the crowd to exceed 50.000 and gate receipts to go above $350,000. majt-

I i;;g it the biggest non-champion-i ship bout since the Dempsey-Shar-key battle in 1927. Bookmakers report the heaviest -betting since the Dempsey Tunney bout in Chicago. Louis, because |of his phenomenal knockout tecI ord and his spectacular training I work, is a. 6-5 favorite, with a ! chance that he may go into the ' ring a stronger choice because of , an influx of midwestern money | backing him. The spectacle of the young dei seated puncher jabbing at the giant I Camera, has awakened more inter- ■ est than any Ight in years. More than 400 newspapermen, -the btgi gest group since the Dempsey- . Carpentier boat in 1321, will cover the battl ZThe recent M ix Baer- • James, J. Braddock heavyweight i title bout is dwarfted in comparison. Al hough Louis’ record has made him the popular favorite., many ring wise experts are doubtful of his ability to concede Camera approximately 58 pounds in weight, 6 inches in height. 4 Inches in reach, and 8 years in experience, and still triumph. A year ago I/>uis was working iin a Detroit automobile factory. He turned professional July 4 last year, and received SSO for knocking out Jaj.k Kracken in one round. ! . Knockout followed knockout until I he battered his way into pugilism's headlines. His ardent backers say | he is the greatest hitter since Dempsey, and some even- say he is , greater than the Manassa mauler., | Tonight’s oout will not settle Louis' final place in fistiania’s : ranks, as he can lose and still come back, but it should shed considerable light on his punching powers. Last year Baer had Camera on the floor 12 tiipes but couldn’t keep him there. Louis' - i supporters claim that once Joe| finds the range and drops the ltal-l ian man mountain he will put him down for keeps. Camera has proved his gante- ' ness, his ability to maul and rough I it, and stick through tough going, I His followers expect him to bruise i and maul the inexperienced Louis I into submission and score a tech-1 i nical K. O. or win the decision if the bout goes the limit. YESTERDAY'S RESULTS National League Cincinnati, 6; Philadelphia 4. > St. Louis. 12; BrooKlyn, 7. | Chicago, 10; New York. 9.
