Ever since Godfrey licked that

against prize fighting. We, too, are

it before Godfrey fought the BASQUE,

been equally opposed if the white

The Examiner, at least, answers
for itself; in an editorial following

aminer" says: Negroes fighting
white men is bad thing"
Get that? The Examiner" does
not say that white men fighting Ne
groes is bad thing. II when white
men fight them, the Negroes would
either run or stand still and take
the beating, perhaps the Examiner"
would think it not quite so "bad" a
thing after all. Notice carefully
the Examiner" does not even say:

Winter League Ball
Players Show Form

Several ball players well known in
the West are showing rare form down
in the Florida winter league. Ac-
cording to reports drifting northward
Smokey Joe Williams is pitching very
good ball and is winning his share of
games, despite the fact that his sup
port at times is wobbly.
Red Ryan up to date has turned in
some wonderful performances both
in the box and at the bat, having won
three games.
Bobby Williams, who reminds one
of Joe Dugan, looks good. Incident
ally Bobby is leader of the Breaker
outfit. Burlin White, favorite mask
man is handling the pitchers nice
ly. Among the outfielders Charley
Jones, a youngster from Buffalo, and
Lefty Williams have been pre-emin-
ept.
The ball being played by the two
league teams, the Breakers and the
Poinciana is the best seen there for
four or five seasons. The league
crowds that are turning out bear out
this fact. The series now stands
Breakers 3, Poinciana 4; two games

Know Mamie Smith?
She Started Something

When Mamie Smith, an Atlanta
girl, went beyond the footlights some
IL years ago and had her "blues"
canned in "race records" she started
something.
In the short time that has elapsed
several hundred artists, good and
bad, have had their work preserved
for future generations. Incidentally
they have earned amounts which can
hardly be estimated in dollars and
cents but it is known that family lar
ders have increased materially from
that source of revenue. The weekly
press has benefited also by advertis-
ing of their wares.
According to Billboard, a theatre
