The champ was first on hand for the regatta. Walking through the Concrete corridor which runs past the Yankee dressing room, Joe pointed out the tunnel to the field. Down the steps came the replica of a Mountain torrent, sans trout, The champ said two unprintable words, but his head down again and plodded on to his dressing room.

» » HE WAS IN the doghouse right from the start. “They put him in the old umpires’ dressing room. Walcott waded in a few minutes later. He took the visitors’ dressIng room. Most relatives should stay just about that long. They were playing “Carolina Moon Keep Shining” over the public address system. Either the wires were crossed or they should get a New needle. It went round and ‘round but it didn't come out here,

UP IN THE front offices in a huddle were Mike Jacobs and Sol Strauss of the 20th Century Sporting Club and Tom Gallery of the Yankee organization. A cordon of policemen guarded the room closer than the gateway to Ft. Knox. ; The board of strategy was phoning all airports within a radius of 50 railes, checking on the water output. They didn't want anybody to Imow they were calling off the fight. It might have cost them a few

fight was off. They kept him in solitary, however. Nobody got near enough to him to say hello. :

Walcott, too, was kept in seclusion. Probably so nobody could say “Joe Louis,” or “boo” or something equally frightening, Both fighters were standing up under this endurance dressing contest pretty well. Walcott's weight was said to have given a little from squeezing inside his tights so often.

No profit. : But from the way it was raining when they went out, one thing is sure. Neither one is going to be able to use Louis’ alibi of last time and claim they were “too.dried out.” That will take quite some time the way things are going. : The cops were their usual gentle selves clearing the newspapermen out of the corridors. It's a shame they don’t have brass knuckles. One thing sure. If they don’t get this fight over soon I'nt going te
