On the evening of Jupe 4, in s
Philadelphia, Cincinnati's dank ?
i\ cobra pf the squared circle, Ez- ^
I zard Charles, attempts to do ^
what no former heavyweight
champion has ever accomplished?win
back the title. 1
J Blocking his history .making ^
aspirations is Jersey Joe Walcott,
. again, ring-wise holder of the *
W crown and knockout conquerer
m''- owr Charles Jast-July-18. Pre-flght
predictions run alonj
L, the normal path. Both men oozi
p1" quiet confidence. Charles says, ~f
"I beat him twice; I can do it a.
p,. gain." Walcott voices a terse,

'Charles is undertaking a tea
I that six former champions trier
and failed ? Bob Fitzsimmons,
Jim Corbett, Jim Jeffries, Jacl *
Demps*y, Max Schmeling, and
Joe Louis. It was Charles whr
spiked the Louis endeavor.
Neither the champion nor thu, ,
challenger is overly popular will
the. public, probably because it'i
a tough assignment to follow

Editors' Poll ^
ey and Louis. Many experts J]
imply r~gari? them tops of ?
urrent'ly poor crop. But the fact
ttmains that they are the bes' ty
1 th* business even though va
usiness standard my be low. . re
In Charles' corner will be the A1
dvantages of age '(he will be hc
1 July 7), has fought three
imes since losing the crown, is Pi
cknowledgid a better boxer. R*
In Walcott's corner will be al
he adyantages of /'they-never- th
oms-back" ring history, the ?r
mythological lift of being cham- m
>ion, more at stake financially s0
vith a big family to feed.
Th? latter angl" is important. ^
Ml
rp? Louis in a rorpnt interview '
expressed: "Only on? thing .^
lakes good fighters?hard tmes.
' cl
!*he man who hasn't enough to
cc
at will climb in a ring to eat n
. i , - ? ., SIC
nmself a square meal. He takes
iard, head-splitting punches but
loesn't fall down, hitting back
)ecause he knows that it's the
mly way there is to fill his J
tomach aft'?r the fight."
Now Walcott's stomach isn't Mj
exactly empty and his family C
sn't suffering from malnutrition.
ret they have been hungry in
ire past and conceivably couk r,
eel the pangs in th'? future. It ^
rr^ay b? this haunting specter jjj
hat causes Jersey, Jo? to hang ar
in to his title. The cha-pipicn fi(?
38, a fairly advanced-age_ J?_Lth
art looking for a n?w job. m
By posing tne question of who
/ill win "the Walcottvs. Charts
fight, the National Sports h(
Iditors' Poll forced the sport
ditors of the daily- newspapers
j crawl out on a trembling limb.
Rather than chancing the limb
reaking and finding themselves ^
n the wrong end of a predicon,
a surprising number ol fU
ports editors decided to play m;
t ;safe by checking the "No ?
pinion" section of the query. .
?4 > Ol
H:re is the result of those ex- an
erts brave enough to predict th? M;
Btpom? of the heavyweight wj
lampionship:
harles will win ....... 60 pet
ralcott will win ...... 17'pet. jn
