Goes to Texas League

Finally Rowe took stock of his case and decided to go to the Texas League to try to bake the aches and pains out of his arm under the broiling Texas sun. He worked hard at Beaumont, where they play no night ball, and finished off with 20 victories and nine defeats. But last vear he was still far from the pitcher of old and was able to win only 10 games against 12 defeats. His earned run average was 4.99. But he was making progress. This geason new sirength returned to his aim. He began to cut loose — not with the power of 1934 and '35 when he hurled a ball so fast it looked like an aspirin tablet—but there was a hop on his fast one again. Brought along gradually by Del Baker, the lean, lanky Arkansas boy has now reached the stature where he may be the trail blazer in the 7igers’ stretch drive for the pennant. Only his teammate, the loud and boisterous Buck Newsom, has a better winning percentage—13 and 2

it already does if I didn't yank off and make it say something in prot I signing of Billy Conn for a heav | Joe Louis. | With Conn still in training for) a fight with Bob Pastor he is said to have been hustled off to a side] room, set down at a desk equipped | with pen, ink and paper, and en|gaged to do battle with Louis late | |in the summer. What kind of busi- | ness 1s this? Any ethical monkey | would shy away from it, because || |it would sound too much like monkey business to him. But it has been done by Promoter Mike | | Jacobs, the young and handsome | Conn., and his manager, whose ‘name I never can remember.

What's Mike Thinking About?

I don't blame Conn and what's-| his-name so much, but for the life fof me I can't understand what |

Jacobs is thinking about. As a] | matter of fact all I can understand | lis that he must not be thinking! {about the public. Has he given a| thought to the public's reaction to} {this whole thing? Does he realize | that, in effect. he has gone on record as saying he believes Conn will | beat Pastor? Evidently not, because Jacobs is| a shrewd operator and not given to doing things to hurt his own business, and this is bound to. Why should fight fans pay money to see a bout which the promoter feels will be so one-sided that he gayly goes ahead and arranges a future match for one of the principals? The logical thing for them to do lis to save their money until the title match comes off in September. Of course, Conn may not have actually been signed. No one I know has laid his eyes on the document. Even so, the promoter has allowed reports of such a contract to go undenied, and the damage has been done.

Bob Is Nobody's Fool

Just what are Conn’s chances of | beating Pastor and making the re- | | ported contract stand up? From | | what I've seen of the two men I| ‘don’t think they are so good. Pastor | | is nobody's fool in the ring. He is] ja cute boxer, a quick-thinker, a | | keen analyst and game, | Unless Conn has hit on a magic! | formula in recent weeks, he is just | a fancy boxer in my books. And | | not a big fancy boxer, either, but | a little one. | If T had to make a bet today (and 'T never, never wager unless forced to, being of the opinion that {gambling is wicked and sinful and |leads to more serious vices such as | smoking, bunny-hugging, and going jon straw rides) I would bet on Pastor. Not only would I bet on {Bob but I would give odds.
