: . NEW YORK, July 27-—Although Joe Louis has yet to sign a contract with the International Boxing Club for his comeback effort against Ezzard Charles in Yankee Stadium on Sept. 27, it appears virtually certain that the fight will come off. Joe's announcement that he is going to West Baden, Ind, to boil out before starting ring work at Pompton Lakes, N. J, comes close to being an official communique that the retired champion has been persuaded to undertake the old ordeal once more,. No word yet has come from the Income Tax Bureau concerning Louis’ offer to let the collectors take his entire cut of the Charles brawl in settlement of back dues amounting to $260
What with his liberal percentage of an expected gross of $450,000 for the stadium fight, and his bite of the television, radio and motion picture lagniappe, Louis would be fairly certain to be able meet Unde Sam's bill.
HOWEVER, THERE still would be the matter of * income taxes on his take from the Charles fight. Joe would like the Treasury Department to become his sponsor in the contest, and give him a quit claim on all dues on Sept.
