Question: What electoral ward of Manchester, England, did Leonard "Len" Benker Johnson spend time in prior to World War II?
Context: Moss Side is an inner-city area and electoral ward of Manchester, England.  It lies 1.9 mi south of Manchester city centre and had a population of 18,902 at the 2011 census.  Moss Side is bounded by the neighbourhoods of Hulme to the north, Chorlton-on-Medlock, Rusholme and Fallowfield to the east, Whalley Range to the south, and Old Trafford to the west. The T1 tanker or T1 are a class of sea worthy small tanker ships used to transport fuel oil before and during World War II, Korean War and Vietnam War.  The T1 tanker classification is still in use today.  T1 tankers are about 200 to 250 feet in length and are able to sustain a top speed of about 12 knots.  The hull designation "AO" is used by the US Navy to denote the ship is a T1 oil tanker and "AOG" that the T1 is a gasoline tanker.  The small size allows the T1 to enter just about any sea port or to anchor around a small island, this was very useful during the Pacific War.  The T1 tanker can carry about 48,000 to 280,000 BBLs.  Some T1 tankers were used to transport goods other than oil, a few were used for black oil-crude oil, diesel, chemicals and rarely bulk cargo like grain.  T1 tankers are also called liquid cargo carriers.  The T1 tanker has about a 6,000 to 35,000 DWT of cargo.  The small size also gives the ships short turn around time for repair, cleaning, loading and unloading.  A T1 tanker carrying dirty cargo, like crude oil needs a few weeks of labor to clean before carrying clean cargo.  Most T1 ships during World War II were named after major oil fields. T1 tanker are operated by the US Navy, War Shipping Administration and United States Maritime Commission.  Some T1 were loaned to England in the Lend-Lease program for World War II, after the war most were returned to the USA.  After World War II many of the T1 ships were sold to for civilian use.  Each T1 had emergency life rafts on the boat deck.  The ships had cargo booms and piping to load and unload fuel.  During war time the T1 are armed for protection with deck guns.  A typical ship may have one single 3"/50 dual purpose gun, two 40 mm guns and three single Oerlikon 20 mm cannon.  A T1 at war time normally had a crew of 38 and up to 130.  If operating as a United States Merchant Marine ship, the crew would be a mix of civilian Merchant Marines and United States Navy Armed Guards to man the guns. Leonard "Len" Benker Johnson (22 October 1902 – 28 September 1974 (aged 71)) born in Clayton, Manchester was an English professional middle/light heavyweight boxer of the 1920s, and 1930s, who won the Australian version of the British Empire middleweight title in 1926.  Johnson (who was of mixed race) was denied the opportunity to fight for championships in Great Britain because of the colour bar that existed in boxing at that time.  He was managed by his father Bill Johnson.  Johnson fought on boxing booths in the 1920s, and from 1930 to 1939 owned his own travelling booth.  Just prior to the outbreak of World War Two Johnson briefly tried his hand at professional wrestling, but once war came he lost interest in both boxing and wrestling, and sold his booth.  During World War Two Johnson was a member of the Civil Defence heavy Rescue Squad in Manchester.  Len Johnson was also a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain (joining the party in 1944 and later writing a boxing column for the party newspaper "The Daily Worker"), a trade unionist, a community leader in Moss Side, a local civil rights activist, and attended the 5th Pan-African Congress in Manchester.  Following the Second World War, he was a co-founder of the New International Society in Manchester, which provided a vehicle for black political and social self-organisation in the city and campaigning against racism at home and abroad, including organising a concert and a rally featuring Paul Robeson in support of the Trenton Six, which were both attended by 10,000 people. Dimitrije "Mita" Đorđević (Serbian: Димитрије Ђорђевић ; 27 February 1922 – 5 March 2009) was a widely published historian of Modern European history, especially of the Balkans.  Đorđević was born in Belgrade to a prominent Serbian family.  When he was a law student, the Germans invaded Yugoslavia during World War II and he joined the resistance movement of Dragoljub Mihailovic.  Đorđević was captured by the Germans and was imprisoned, ultimately in Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp in Austria.  He survived the war, but was in turn imprisoned by the communist regime in post World War II Yugoslavia.  After he was pardoned and released, Đorđević was eventually allowed to commence study at the University of Belgrade, where he was a student of Vaso Čubrilović (one of the members of the Young Bosnia who conspired to assassinate Franz Ferdinand which led to the outbreak of World War I).  Đorđević was awarded his doctorate in 1962.  In 1970, Đorđević took up a position as a Full Professor of History at the University of California, Santa Barbara, joining a strong faculty in European History including Joachim Remak, Leonard Marsak, and C. Warren Hollister.  He was elected a member of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts in 1985.  A popular undergraduate lecturer and graduate mentor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in 1992 many of his former students contributed to his "Festschrift" entitled "Scholar, Patriot, Mentor: Historical Essays in Honor of Dimitrije Djordjevic".  In retirement, Đorđević published his autobiography, "Scars and Memory: Four Lives in One Lifetime", describing his World War II and post World War II experiences.  Professor Đorđević died in Santa Barbara on March 5, 2009. Robert Lee Sherrod (February 8, 1909 – February 13, 1994) was an American journalist, editor and author.  He was a war correspondent for "Time" and "Life" magazines, covering combat from World War II to the Vietnam War.  During World War II, embedded with the United States Marine Corps, he covered the battles at Attu (with the U.S. Army), Tarawa, Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa.  He also authored five books on World War II, including "Tarawa: The Story of a Battle" (1944) and the definitive "History of Marine Corps Aviation in World War II" (1952).  He was an editor of "Time" during World War II and later editor of "The Saturday Evening Post", then vice-president of Curtis Publishing Company. U-625 was a Type VIIC U-boat of Nazi Germany's "Kriegsmarine" during World War II.  The submarine was laid down on 28 July 1941 at the Blohm & Voss yard in Hamburg, launched on 15 April 1942, and commissioned on 4 June 1942 under the command of "Oberleutnant zur See" Hans Benker. Rubin Patiția (August 21 [O.S. August 9] 1841 –June 13, 1918) was an Austro-Hungarian ethnic Romanian lawyer and political activist.  A native of the Transylvania region, he trained as a lawyer, settling in Alba Iulia in the 1870s and using his position to advance the local Romanian community.  He achieved prominence as a signatory of the Transylvanian Memorandum in 1892, an act that eventually led Patiția to spend time in prison.  Soon after 1900, he began to withdraw from politics, dying near the close of World War I, shortly before the union of Transylvania with Romania. Coldhurst (or more rarely Cold Hurst) is an area of Oldham, and an electoral ward of the wider Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, in Greater Manchester, England.  At the time of the United Kingdom Census 2001, it had a population of 11,935, increasing to 13,201 at the 2011 Census.  The electoral ward spans most of Oldham's town centre, although the name Coldhurst conventionally applies to the area immediately north of the centre.  The district of Westwood and a small adjoining part of Chadderton in the Busk area also lie within the Coldhurst ward district. Weston is a suburb and electoral ward of Bath in England, located in the northwest of the city.  Originally a separate village, Weston has become part of Bath as the city has grown, first through the development of Lower Weston in Victorian times and then by the incorporation of the village into the city, with the siting of much local authority housing there in the period after World War II. Ward Leonard Control, also known as the Ward Leonard Drive System, was a widely used DC motor speed control system introduced by Harry Ward Leonard in 1891.  In early 1900s, the control system of Ward Leonard was adopted by the U.S. Navy and also used in passenger lift of large mines.  It also provided a solution to a moving sidewalk at the Paris Exposition of 1900, where many others had failed to operate properly.  It was applied to railway locomotives used in World War I, and was used in anti-aircraft radars in World War II.  Connected to automatic anti-aircraft gun directors, the tracking motion in two dimensions had to be extremely smooth and precise.  The MIT Radiation Laboratory selected Ward-Leonard to equip the famous radar SCR-584 in 1942.  The Ward Leonard control system was widely used for elevators until thyristor drives became available in the 1980s, because it offered smooth speed control and consistent torque.  Many Ward Leonard control systems and variations on them remain in use.
