LOUIS A MERICA'S famous Negro prizefighter who rose from poverty to earn a million and a half dollars in six years is usually called Joe Louis. But this is not his full legal name, which is Joseph Louis Barrows. His mother, Mrs. Lily Barrows, married a second time and is now Mrs. Brooks. When Charles Roxborough met the aspiring fighter in 1932 and asked him what was his name, he got the answer: "Joseph Louis Barrows." "That's too long," snapped Roxborough, who was to become manager, "we'll.just call you Joe Louis." And thus was decided a name that has become famous. : (Public Ledger--WNU Service.) ;• • Fit Shoes by X-ray ' • Five thousand stores fit shoes by X-rays, at least one manufacturer designs his shoes with the help of the machine. • si:;.;..-*--.
