CHICAGO, Feb. 5.—A bold coup by the Illinois Athletic Commission brought the proposed heavyweight championship prize fight between Jimmy Braddock and Joe Louis right up to the contract signing stage today. Assuming a sit-tight attitude, the commission virtually assured a 15round Braddock-Louis bout in Chicago June 15. It did it this way: 1. Chairman Joseph Triner patched up a dispute between Mike Jacobs of New York's Twentieth Century Club, who has an exclusive contract to act as a®copromoter in the Bomber's fights, and Louis’ comanagers, Julian Black and John Roxborough. 2. He obtained a verbal ment from each contestant pear Monday to the match. 3. He announced a contract between Jacobs and the Sporting Club of Illinois, actual promoters, who offered Braddock $500,000 or an option on half the net receipts. Although Madison Square Garden has “an ironclad contract” te put on the scheduled Braddock-Max Schmeling title in New York June 3, none appeared concerned. “I see no legal entanglements at this end that might halt the fight,” Triner said.

This is the fifth annual TimesLegion Golden Gloves classic and the eight winners in the Open class will represent Indianapolis in the Chicago Tribune Tournament of Champions on Feb. 22, 23 and 24. 2 flock of prizes will be distributed to winners and runners-up in both Oth and Novice iio here.
