NEW YORK.—It looks like Joe Louis’ next victim will be either Max Baer or Tommy Farr—with the odds leaning quite heavily in favor of Baer. Mike Jacobs says it all depends on Baer and whether he is willing to come to terms: As there doesn’t seem to be much doubt about his doine that, all that seems to be left is to pick out the spot for the fight. On the other hand there is Tommy Farr and the $200,000 purse guarantee offered by Armand Vincent, a former Montreal promoter. Vincent wants Louis to fight Harr in London and as $200,000 is no small peanuts that angle can’t be ignored. As far as Baer is concerned no one would appear to be particularly excited about such a bout. . Farr, who has stayed fifteen rounds with the Brown Bomber, continues to assert his right to a returm go with the champion. Promoter Mike Jacobs is reported to be willing—if Parr wall first meet Schmelling this fall. In the meantime, Jimmy Braddock has announced that he will break his retirement for a go at the Nazi horizontalist. MOSCOW .—The Soviet press made no attempt to conceal its de- light at Joe Louis’ sensational knockout of Max Schmeling~ Izvestia, Komsomolskaya Pravda (ergan of the Young Communist League of the Soviet Union) and other Moscow papers feature the Tass agency report from New York giving details of the fight. Komsomolskaya Pravda published the story umder a two-column headline: “Negro Joe Louis Wins Fight With “‘Pure-blooded Aryan’” The story is illustrated with a photograph of Louis in a fighting pose. The Komsomolskaya Pravda, which expresses the viewpoint of millions of Soviet sport fans, said that the significance of the fight was not limited to the fact that it was witnessed by a crowd of 80,000 people. The paper declared: “Hundreds of thousands of people in the United States and the whole world understood and felt perfectly the political significance of this bout between Louis and an avowed representative of German fascism. It is even charged by various newspapers that a considerable portion of the cash which Schmeling is due to receive for his part in the fight is slated to go into the fascist treasury.” ORANGE HALL 1 BOXING and WRESTLING EXHIBITIONS Vancouver Sports Club SATURDAY, 3:30 PM.

CANADIAN BAKERIES LIMITED Continued From Page One CCF Convention a full slate to office. They have succeeded in nominat— ing Matthew Glenday for president, Don Smith for first vice-president, J. Gloutier for secretary-treasurer, and A. Ferguson, R. Bullock, Don Smith and Frank Roberts for the five executive seats. Bullock has published a mimeo- erapbed Trotskyist bulletin cireu— lated in North Vancouver. Glenday and Roberts were branded as Trotskyists when they ran in Van- ecouver Centre in the provincial elec- tion last year. Don Smith, until ousted a few months ago, was editor of the Federationist and under his editorship the paper took a bitterly anti-Soviet Union, anti-unity atti- tude. Bullock and Rod Young, avowed Trotskyist who was suspended last year, have both been nominated for chairman of the organization com mittee, while Glen Lamont, another Trotskyist active in the Canadian Federation of labor, has been nom- inated for the economic relations through this Key position to SS) committee, co-ordinating body be- tween the CCE and the trade unions: Chief among those who, by articles in the Pederationist and public speeches, have shown them-— selves to be definitely under Frots- lkeyist influence are W. W. Lefeaux and George Weaver, whose sneering comment on the Soviet Union and the Communist party features the “Sage and Onions’ column of the Federationist. Both have been nom-— inated for various offices. Im reply to a question concern- ing the attitude of the CCF toward the Canadian Federation of Labor, Gargrave stated that the CGE re— garded the ABUL as the trade union Centre of Canada and would take no part in any attempt to split the trade union movement. There is a proposal before the conference to obtain associate members among those who, though not in agreement with es entire ©CGE program, will yet sup- port the CCE on many issues. Another question which is ime : certain to come before the conven-— tion is that of house leadershiag If it does, Gargrave stated, it will — be settled by vote in the convention. | By decision of the convention last year, when the Conservatives © formed the official opposition, - no house leader was named. But sines al- Bj then the Conseryatiyes have lost Dewdney, Seat of the late Dr. Frank Patterson, Tory leader. Both the CCF and the Conservatives: now hold seven seats. There are two in- dependents, Tom Uphill, Labor, and R. Bruhn, former Conservative. Tf it becomes necessary for Lieuten- ant_-Governor Eric Hamber to des- igmate the official opposition it may well be the CCF as the Opposition — Party polling the largest vote. Mentioned as possible nominees for the position of leader in the legislature are Harold Winch, Dr. Iuyle Telford and Mrs. Steeves. There will be some 100 delegates | at this convention, as compared to 178 last year and 258 in 1936. The ~ drop is partly accounted for by the fact that this is the first conven- tions to be held outside Vancouver and many clubs cannot afford to Send more than one delegate. In addition, the ratio of delegates to members has been increased. Board To Meet CLOVERDALE, BC, June 30.— Dorothy ~ The first meeting of the board of ~ arbitration for Surrey salaries meets July 5.
