Caswell w. Crews, editor OF
BRONZEMAN Magazine predicts the
separation of the African Methodist
Episcopal church by North-South
} division unless something is done to
"curb the rising tide of aggression
against the North by the numerically
superior South"
The magazine editor viewed with
alarm the rise of sectionalism as evil
denced by the recurring division along
sectional lines by the delegates in the
recent Cleveland conference.
About three months ago, Clifford c.
Mitchell who writes weekly column
"Digesting the News" for 72 odd Ne
gro weeklies scored the decision Of
the Elk's lodge to hold their annual
national convention in Los Angeles,
despite the chaotic condition of the
country. Immediately after Mitchells
broadside Elk's Grand Exalted Ruler
Finley Wilson proclaimed to the wait
ing Elk world that the annual con-
clave would be held in the California
city as scheduled despite rumors to
tho contrary. Ten days ago, the Los
Angeles entertaining lodge. Golden
West No. Sc, sorrowfully went on rec
ord requesting the Grand Exalted
Ruler to postpone the meeting sche1-
uled for that city August % to a..
Current depression is blamed for the
decision of the Californians to beg for
postponement.
With another hard winter staring
all in the face even before summer
begins the Elks and all other orders
would do we'll to cancel all expensive
conventions. :
The problem of the "class publica-
ton editor" is made very difficult by
the fact that all news is not "good
news" The only paper in the coun-
try that does not carry what may be
properly called dad news" is the
Christian Science Monitor, the daily
organ of the church of that name.
There is a noticeable disposition on
the part of news readers to feel that
unfavorable news is all right as long
as that news does not come close to
home" Newspaper editors do not
knowingly cause people to commit
crimes nor do they cause domestic diff
ficulties that end in the divorce courts.
1t is of course their business to tell
of such occurrences as accurately as
possible. The close contact that the
editor of small class weekly like the
HERALD has with his readers some
times make the task of giving the peo-
pie the news, they pay for, very diff
ficult task. Editors of the average
big daily seldom know personally over
per cent of their readers, while the
average Negro weekly editor has a
speaking acquaintance with the ma
jority of his readers. Hence, when
some of them get into difficulties he
is faced with two alternatives: One
is to allow personal friendships or
considerations to keep the news from
the people, violating the sacred tradi-
tions of journalism, or to publish the
news and thereby lose possibly the
good will of the parties involved. HUI
man impulses and kindly disposition
towards the human frailtfes quite
often makes the editor forget that his
first duty is to his readers and not
to his private desires.
There are some people who are of
the opinion that the average news
man is anxious and even happy to
picture in his paper the unfortunate

The Chicago White Sox were to
break camp here today and HE
themselves to Fort Worth for a
series of games against the Fort
Worth club, of the Texas League.

to reach first, that one on a walk.
SAN FRANCISCO, March "a.
Though the Chicago Cubs had
added another victory to their

JOHNSTON

NEW YORK, March 24.-The
old report that Jack Dempsey,
former heavyweight champion,
plans to fight Primo Camera in
Reno, New, this year was re-
vived today as a result of con-
ference held here between Demp-
Sey and Bill Duffy, Cameras
American manager. Jack said
Primo would be a satisfactory
opponent.
Dempsey unleashed blast at
James j. Johnston, Madison
Square Garden promoter, who
frequently has announced plans
for a Dempsey fight.
Says Dempsey:
Johnston would do we'll to
attend to his own matchmaking
instead of paying too much
attention to mine. 1 will never
fight for the Garden as long as
Johnston is associated with the

Petrolle Win May SerDe Ring Interests Best
BAT FIGURES
IN WEIRD
BATTLES
By FRANK G. MENKE

-
NEW YORK, March 24.-Billy
Petrolle meets up with Battling
Battalino in Madison Square
Garden here tonight and the in
tereStS of boxing would be served
best if Petrolle knocked Batta-
limo into Shanghai.
Battalino has served as gam
bling tool for a long, long time.
He has been part and parcel Of
some strange affairs de fiSticuff.
He did a staggering and sWoon-
ing act in Cincinnati with Eddie
Miller that should have brought
him perpetual suspension from
the prize rings of the world.
He was matched to meet Lou
Feldman in New York at the
featherweight limit. He knew
days before that he could not
make the poundage. He did not
notify the Garden. Rather, he
waited until 2 in the afternoon
of fight day to make his ap-
pearance before the commission
weighing 10 pounds or so over
the class.
Bat Has Following
The fight was called off and
Battalino suspended.
But Battalino has a following.
The promoters recognize it, and,
instead of refusing to do ouSl-
ness with a fighter of his type,
they hand him headline chances.
He was sent against Eddie Ran
in Madison Square Garden two
weeks ago, his suspension being
conveniently lifted, and put up a
fight wherein his main effort
was to keep out of the way OF
Rams right hand.
Now they are going to send
him against Petrolle.
The sharpShooters confess them
selves puzzled in trying to guess
the outcome.
Paralyzing Right Hand
Well, if Petrolle doesn't win by
either a knockout or q margin
as wide as the Sahara Desert,
then Petrolle ought to turn his
share of the purse over to charity.
Petrolle has a great right hand
and the most paralyzing left hook
seen among the little fellows
since Charlie Whites time. He
has speed, stamina, experience
and a keen ring brain. He has
taken the punches of some of
the hardest drivers in the game
and laughed them off.
Battalino never had much more
than durability and courage to
recommend him. He never stiff
fened anything other than a glass
jawed human in his life. He
knows little about the science of
the game. He is basically a
clincher, a holder and a mauler.
The Washington times., 1932-03-24

Boyle will be returned to the
team from which he came-the
Baltimore Orioles. This means
that Washington fans will not
see the youngster who was kept in
preference to Johnny Gill, the
other Oriole outfielder purchased
Ia st summer, for he will go back to
the Maiselmanaged club the day
the Orioles break training on
March 81.
There's been little doubt that
Boyle would go when the fact
seeped out that Owner Griff would
have had to part with fat sum
of money should he keep the
youngster. Still, there were sew
eral reasons to believe that the
outfielder had a chance to beat
Dave Harris out for one of the
utility outfield jobs because of
the promise he displayed in early
workouts.
Too Big a Price Tag
But Boyle is to go, not only
because a big price tag is at
tached for his services, but be-
cause the lad has failed to i'm
press at bat-a little item the
Griffs are looking for in every
player this year.
Boyle was quite a surprise to
your Uncle Clark Griffith when
he first reported for practice. The
lad had weight, one of the chief
reasons why Griff figured he had
a pretty good chance to make
the grade as a big Lacquer.
Boyle'S failure to sock decided
his fate. Griff likes the player,
however, and plans keeping an
eye on him throughout this year,
with the hope that he may d..
velop at bat to compete with the
pitching as served in the big
leagues.
Hit .312 With Orioles
Boyle hit to the tune of .312
for Baltimore in 1881. A nice
average and one of the reasons
why Griff, after seeing him in
action several times, figured he
might prove of some value in
Manager JohnSon's scope of things
this season. But it seems the lad

Though both Fort Monroe and

championships, the former was

Ike Boone Lucky

And while we are on the sub

1t develops that Ike Boone

have his wife, two children,
father and sister join him in

Too, from the South comes
word that Uncle Wilbert Robin
son, for II long years manager
of the Brooklyn club, opines
his former club got the better
Of the deal with Cincinnati.
In a letter to a friend Uncle
Wilbert echoes the general
opinion of baseball men that
the Brooklyn club will miss
Herman but will be consider
ably strengthened by Stripp
and Cuccinello.
"After ALL" he says, Herman
made many great plays in right
field and there is no denying
that he can hit. They'll miss
him in Brooklyn. Any club
would miss him. When Cucci-
nellO and Strip get in shape
Brooklyn should have a real
good infield. A lot will depend
on Wright holding up. I'll be

AS a fielder, Boyle can go and
get 'em right now with any per-
former. But it's hitting, as said
before, that both owner Griff
and Manager johnson are looking
for this year, and Boyle does not
fit into the scheme, particularly
with Dave Harris socking the ball
