LOUIS-FARR FIGHT.
ENGLISHMAN’S CONFIDENCE. United Press Assn.-—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright NEW YORK, August 23. A Pompton Lakes message states that Joe Louis, owing to bad weather, punched a bag Tor five rounds instead of his usual six-mile road work. His manager announced that Louis was not being matched with Schmeling in 1937 regardless of the outcome of the bout with Farr. He said Louis was leaving on September 4 for a holiday trip to London and Paris. A Long Branch message says that Tommy Farr cancelled his light workout owing to rain and went to the cinema. He asserted that he will beat Louis, saying: “I believe the man doesn’t live, who can knock me out.” According to a Philadelphia message, Montanez knocked out Lew Massey in the third of a ten-round bout.
