JOE LOUIS AND HARRY THOMAS FIGHT TONIGHT Heavyweight Champion 20-1 Favorite To Wallop Thomas Chicago, Apr. 1. U.RJ A new/ confident Joe Louis, eyeing his mil lion dollar rematch with Max, Schmejing, tonight wilt meet tile last of his tuneup opponents in a ‘ scheduled 15-round heavyweight I title fight at Chicago stadium , against Harry Thomas, awkward but sturdy trailhorse from Eagle Bend, Minn. The champion was a 20 to 1 favorite to retain his title in the third ' defense since he won it at Com- , iskey park last June by knocking ; out Janies J. Braddock. Odds of 10 to 1 still were being I quoted that Louis would score a quick knockout. A disappointing advance sale indicated less than 15.000 will see Chicago's first indoor heavyweight • title fight. Pormoter Mike Jacobs said the bout may net 175.000, of which Louis will receive 40 per cent and Thomas 12H per cent. Both fighters also will share receipts from an exclusive radio broadcast and motion pictures. | For Thomas, the shot at the championship was a dream he never expected to realize. Except for his recent New York fights against Schmeling and Jimmy Adamick. the bulky Minnesota towhead never has headlined a major card. For Louis, it's a chance to show the world he can dispose of Thomas in less time that it took Schmeling. This means he must stop Thomas in less than eight rounds. Joe thinks he can do it in five although he refused to make predictions. Despite the prohibitive odds in his favor. Louis will take no chance with Thomas even to beat Schtneiing’s effort of a technical knockout in eight rounds. Thomas has a kick in both hands. He believes Louis will not be a great fighter if he is hit ' cleanly on the jaw and likely will

risk all his hopes for one solid punch to the champion's head. "I'll keep throwing punches until 1 hit him," Thomas said. “He'll be hurt, all right.'' The champion's two weeks of ,i boxing drills ended with the most I vicious flurry he ever went through lin Chicago. Training tor BradI dock, he was more like a scared I kid trying to learn to keep his chin protected, than the deadly i puncher who knocked out Primo : Camera.

Mr. Roosevelt's "quarantine” speech, he said, in- | ferred a combination of democratic ' nations against fascist dictatorships. Hoover deplored the rise of fascism in Europe, but asserted that "the forms of government which other peoples pass through in working out their destines is not our business." “You will recollect we were once animated by a desire to save the j world for democracy." he said. “The only result that time was to sow dragons' teeth which sprang up into dictatorships. “We can never herd the world I into the paths of righteousness with the dogs of war." He denounced proposals that ' democracies combine to enforce ' peace. Mr Hoover visited 14 European ' I nations, found 370.000.000 persons 1 ruled by dictatorships who once ' lived under democracy, and en- ! countered forces which he said threatened civilization, this country's as well as Europe's.

CHICAGO EVENS HOCKEY SERIES Chicago -Blackhawks Score Overtime Victory Over New York Chicago. Apr. 1 The two - surprise teams of the national hockey league Chicago's Blackhawks ami the New York Americans headed east today for their third and deciding battle in the semi finals of the Stanley cup playoffs. One game down, the Blackhawks squared the series at the stadium early today by defeating the -»ierks. 1 to 0, after 33:01 of overlime. Winner of the semi-final series will meet the Toronto Maple Loafs, who curried off the first place series with three straight victories over Boston. Cully Dahlstrom. Chicago cent- : er who was voted the year's most valuable rookie, proved his right to the title by thumping in the only goal of the game in the second overtime period. Louie Trudell, veteran wing. : broke into the open during a heavy i scrimmage and rifled a shot squarely at goalie Earl Robertson. Robertson blocked it neatly, but the re- : bound caromed straight back to Dahlstrom's stick and he slapped I it past Robertson in 13:01 of the! second overtime. Despite the severe checking of | the first and third periods and sec | ond overtime |>eriod. there were i few penalties and no fights al- | though Joe Jerwa of the Americans ; and Alex Shill. Blackhawk wing. ! almost came to blows as they drew , minor penalties for unnecessary | roughness. The Blackhawks, who scored only | once in their first game with the Americans, were the aggressors throughout the game. They knew they had to break through New York's rigid defense which had j baffled them all season and ear- • ried the fight from the start. It was Chicago's first victory of ‘ the year over the Americans. They . dropped six games and tied two i during the regular season. The i Amerks won the first game of the | semi-finals. S to 1. o |*At the Training Camps I By United Press »-. — — • Dodgers Clearwater. Fla.. Apr. 1. (U.R? Larry MacPhail. general manages - ; of the Brooklyn Dodgers, said to- , day that it was “silly" to alk of the Dodgers being a first division ! club this year. "We were 17>£ games behind the fifth place Boston Bees last year and the clubs do not improve that I many games overnight." he said. ■ "We have a much improved team, and will be stronger as the season , progresses, but it takes a well- j balanced, as well as a strong club to finish in the first division and the Dodgers are not in that class ; at present.” The Dodgers tackle the Boston I Bees in an exhibition game today. . Yankees Tallahassee. Fla. — The world champion New York Yankees make their first stop of a 14-game bam-! storming tour here today to meet the Tallahassee club of the Geor-1 gia-Florida league. Browns San Antonio. Tex. —The St. Louis 1 Browns and Toledo Mudhens of the/American Association met in the second of their five game series today. The Browns won the! opener 7-6 on Ralph Kress' 10th in- ■ ning home run. his second of the game, yesterday. Phillies Biloxi, Miss. — President Gerry Nugent announced that the Philadelphia Phillies had signed pitch-| er Ed Keusser. formerly of the St. Louis Cardinals, today. Heusser > was made a free agent by Judge I Landis' decision against the Cards'; farm chain operations last week. I She Phils licked Buffalo’s Bisons 9-1 yesterday. Cubs Los Angeles.—Chicago's two maj-1 or league baseball teams broke camp today, the first lap of their spring training series here completed. The Cubs defeated the White Sox 9-2 yesterday and held the long end of a 5-2 game count. Phil Cavaretta, with a man on base, knocked a home run in the seventh and broke a 2-2 tie. Then in the eighth the Cubs pounded Bill Dietrich for five runs. Both teams planned to move east today. t Fotos 10c. 240 W. Madison.
