“They See Tonight if €onn or Les Are Worthy

- DETROIT, June 5 (U. P.). —Up from those where the dark and light fou meet come the curious, phe hore-town folk of Joe Luis,

to see for themselves whether Bill Conn ° ‘or Gus Lesnevich are good. enough little light-heavy-weights to whip their: good big heavyweight. . - Even if théy see the imbrobable— a knockout or a terrific bombardment by either fighter—they’ll boast as they lag down the dark trails into Paradise Valley that neither would last as long as a drumstick if the champion should shuffle after one of them.

#Wishing Won't Do It :

For all the intentions in the world won't make Conn, the light-heavy

champion, or Lesnevich, the chal-| lenger, grow another inch, pack af

harder punch, or add another pound where it counts. . , . Theyre still light-heavies, anxious to venture into the class of the big money and the Brown Bomber. The winner of tonight's scheduled 15+rou er at Olympia Stadium has been promised a shot at Louis next September—if he can get past Bob Pastor ‘or another ranking heavyweight.| Both fighters expect tonight's | title. serap | to boost them virtually through the maudlin class of contenders to the heavyweight crown. Conn is strictly a boxer—one of the cleverest in the game. In workouts he has attempted to throw a

stunning punch, but it comes from}

the shoulder and not from the waist. An indication that he might try to slug it out with the challenger has his statement that he would “carry the battle from the start and win as quickly as possible.” Conn |is a notorious slow-starter. In his bout with Lesnevich at New -York last November he lost the first six rounds, then surged back in a whirlwind finish for a 15-round decision. | Lesnevich Slugs

Lesnevich, who emerged as a first class fighter after a career as football and baseball player, chef, waiter and (bouncer, is a slugger, a twofisted puncher of the ‘hungry’ type exemplified by Lew Jenkins. Gustav George is hungry for fame and the fortune which would bring security to himself, his brothers and’ sisters back at Cliffside Park. N. J.

. Both fighters claifh to be in perfect condition. Although Conn has a two-inch advantage in reach and several inches in height, Lesnevich's | heavier shoulders are expected to balance the score with power and ruggedness. Conn said he had completely recovered from the attacks of boils which twice forced post-

CHICAGO, June §.—Dizzy Dean

in 1941. Long before the season opened,

Three principal reasons why he finally gave up on Dean and Bryant after two years are. Rookies Ken Raffenberger, Vern Olsen and Jake Mooty, the best trio of young pitchers ever brought up by the Cubs in a single season. With Dean and Bryant definitely out of the way, these three kids can get plenty of work. By next year they should be ready. If Dean and Bryant can come back—and few think they can—so much the better. Dean headed for the Cubs’ farm at Tulsa, Okla. waived out of the major leagues after nine of the ‘most hectic years any pitcher ever put in. Wrigley wished him success in’ his experiment with a sidearm delivery and assigned Dutch Ruether, one-time star pitcher and now a Cub scout, to coach the. Invalided Dean, Diz can be recalled at any time. Bryant, suspended without pay,
