CALEX|C0 WINS
ON FORFEIT OVER
COL0RED YOUTH

Central Union High school forfeit
ed the game with Calexico last Sat-
urday, refusing to play the border
town because colored boy, Meyers
by name, appeared in the lineup Of
Coach Hardness nine.
The game is the climax of an
agreement made by the Central and
Imperial high schools last fall stat
ing that they would not play under
those conditions. This ultimatum was
declared at the meeting Of the ath-
letic directors held in imperial soon
after the riots in Chicago and the
Kansas City trouble last year Braw-
lev. Calexico, Holtville and Calipatria
refused to take any action at that
time and it was. thought that they
were opposed to the move made by
Central and Imperial.
Nothing more was done until Fri
day when the list of eligibles was
handed to Professor Randall by the
Calexico coach. The two teachers de-
cided to let the matter rest with the
boys of the team. They settled the
matter in short order by refusing to
play the contest. The game was ruled
