Air Transport Company
Refuses Colored Passenger

When Sherman Spates received a
telegram last Wednesday informing
him of the serious illness of his
mother in Monterrey, Calf, he tele-
phoned the Pacific Air Transport
Corporation and made arrangements
for an air trip to California. The
company agreed to hold a reserva
ton on plane leaving Thursday
and informed Mr.. Spates they would
send taxi to bring him to their
plane depot at Boeing Field. The
taxi called for Mr.. Spates, and when
he arrived at the depot he was told
a mistake had been made and his
reservation had been sold to another
person. Knowing this to be a subter-
fuge as the plane left with only a
few passengers, Mr.. Spates reported
the matter to Attorney Clarence R.
Anderson for LEGAL action. ATTORNEY
Anderson, accompanied by W. H.
Wilson, representing the Seattle N.
A. A. C. P. branch, in a conference
with r. F. Ahrens, local representa-
tive of the Pacific Air Transport
Corporation were informed Tuesday
that it was the fixed policy of the
company to refuse colored persons
transportation in their planes. Legal
action will be instituted against the
company.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-11-08

Besides this stellar attraction which will mark the first time in many years that an amateur cham pionship bout will be held in this city, Matchmaker Muiiigan has ge- cured. teams from New York, New Haven, Torrington, Bridgeport, New Britain, Derby, Hartford, and Waterbury's leading scrapperg to take part in t1fe show.
 Recently State Boxing Commis-. sioner Thomas D. Donohtie ruled that in the future all titleholders will have to defend their titles when fighting at the class limit. Angelo has agreed to come in at the bantamweight class and ft fs expected that he will scale 118 pounds for his battle with the local Italian. Sciaretti will not have any trouble making weight for the bout as the local youth has been doing most of his fighting in that division during the past month.
 Coming Along.
 Although Sciaretti will be mak- ing l1is first appearance of the sea- son at the local hall, he has been doing a lot of fighting about the state and has won all of his bouts. Two weeks ago he defeated James Duncan Stamford puncher, who previous to his meeting with the Waterburian won five straight fights by a knockout.
 A diamond studded belt that was awarded to Frankie Angelo in Bridgeport several weeks ago when he won the title from Spiro Morris, Bridgeport youth, will be at stake in his fight with Sciaretti. The belt will be in the hands of the local boxing deputy and will be awarded the winner.
 And Besides.
 Besides Sciaretti, other Water bury boxers that will find a place on the card will be Danny Martin. Jr., 140; Eddie Hogan, heavyweight champion; Joe Steele, middleweight champion; Frankie Alterie, 126; Jack Larriyee, .165; Tommy Mack, 120; and others.

MANHATTAN, C.C.
 ENCOUNTER TO BE
 ON AIR SATURDAY

New York, Nov 8--City College brings It's 1892 football schedule to close to-day with the game against Manhattan College at the Polo Grounds. It will mark the eighth annual clash between the local rivals. The opening kick-off Is set for 2 p. m
 4 crowd of 30,O00 Is expected to witness the Lavender and the Jas- pers strive to break the deadlock which exists in their gridiron se- ries, which started in 1925. Each team has won twice and three games have resulted in tie scores.
 Last year Q strongly favored Manhattan eleven was held to Q GO deadlock at the Polo Grounds, and the year before played a 6-6 tie at the L.ewisohn Stadium.
 Record FavOrs Manhattan
 Manhattan again enters the con-, test strong favorite. on the strength of a splendid victory over Oglethorpe University in the Jas perS last start, and also because Coach Meehan's team held Cath ollie University to a 12-7 score, whereas c. c. N. Y. lost by 47-0 to the Flying Cardinals. City College was beaten, 46-0, by Providence College last Saturday.
 However, the Lavender can al- ways be counted upon to rise to great heights against Manhattan. The Jaspers are City Colleges forem ost rivals, and a victory over the Riverdale eleven would atone for the lack of success in c. c. N. Y.'s earlier contests.
 Coach Bernie Bienstock rested his regulars against Providence, allowing his substitutes to play most of the game, and he has his strongest lineup ready for action.
 To Dcpekd on Acrials Forward passes and laterals will be Layender's main reliance for victory inasmuch as City Colleges runnii1g attack Is expected to make little headway. :. The Jaspers, on the other hand, are counting mainly upon their running attack, with Bill Fender. gast, their star quarterback, as the spearhead. Pendergast scored al three of the Manhattan touch downs in the oglethorpe game, two of them on runs of over bO yards In q preliminary contest, listed to start at noon, the Mannattan College 150-pound eleven will op.. pose the 150-pound intramnra team of Rutgers University. Tnli will mark hte first public game Q, the Jasper lightweights.
 The Manhattan-C. c. N. Y. game will he broadcast over the Colum. bia Broadcasting Systems WABC network and over Station WINS 1t was announced yesterday.
 The WINS broadcast will begir at 1:3O with a concert given by the bands of the two institutions | About 2 o'clock Ford Prick VII begin his description of events or the gridiron. The Columbia ac' count will start at 2:S0. Ted Illus ing and Les Quailey being the an nOJncer9.

 New York, Nov s.--(UP)-This was election day, and 1t found me bouncing back and forth on the sharpest two-prongcd, fur-bearing dilemma you ever saw.
 We couldn't vote for Hoover be- cause our garage accommodates but one chicken. and We have no pot.
 We couldn't vote for Upshaw be- cause we don't still believe in Santa Claus.
 We couldn't vote for Roosevelt because we didn't register.
 We couldn't vote for Thomas be- cause he didn't register. We couldn't vote for Foster be- cause he didn't register with us.
 Still, we had to vote for some- body 50 we just threw in q ballot for Army as the best football team in these United States.
 (Ed Note: The curtain will be lowered ten minutes to allow the supporters of PittSburg, Colgate, Brown, Columbia, Tennessee, Au- burn, U. 8. O., U. c. l.. A., Michf- gan, Purdue and others to give off their cries of 'shooooey".) And we don't blame the boys for crying "hooey", especially the Pittsburg boys. Pitt beat Army. We saw lem do 1t. Yet we aren't convinced that the Cadets who kicked fair Harvard 46 to o Satur- day are not the ball playingest babies in the country. To be hon. est about 1t, we think Pitt was lucky to beat Army. We believe that had Pitt met Army two weeks later the score would have been rec versed.
 Mind you. we're not trying to take anything away from Pitt. The Panthers are q ball club. Any team with such gentlemen as Hell Ter, Skladany and Sebastian would have to be. Incidentally, this man | 6kladany, appears to be in SO far as the better ail-America selections are concerned.
 It doesn't matter what eroup you talk football with--s sooner or later tho conversation drifts around to Brother Skladany and his end play. The boys who saw him work |against Notre Dame refuse to talk to pick him at both wings. But to get back to Army. The thing that made the Army team this season was the coming of age of Folk Pick vidal, At the begin ming Of the season. Pick was the No. 2 quarterback, and nothing

|RINALDI RESTS
 CONWAY IN DUEL

Tn a special match rolled recent iy at the Wooster alleys the Street department team added the Tire men to their list of victims. 1t be- ing just case of too much Rinaldi. several years ago Pete, who losses them down from the portside, was just about in a class all by himseil as a top notcher. Time rolled py and Pete was content with bowhng a little now and then until ne finally wound up with the Street Singers. !,
 Freddie Kelley who handles the reins of the Streetmen signed Pete LID once with the result that the Cityites won the Benedict Street league last season and are favor ftes to duplicate that feat. A ringer in the person of Leo Specs Con way was pitted against Rinaldi the other evening, but Pete didn't seem bothered and toppled the naples for 154 in his first game and for 398 for three while Con- way would up with 309.
 Al Demenski made a gallant cf- fort to save the match hitting S26. ebut his mates Harry Waters and Frankie Harmon didn't help him with 302 and 29S, respectively.
 George Dietz, who sends out the sad news for Al every month was the losers best bet. His double strike in the closing stages of the second game almost spelled defeat for the Street crew. George con- fributed neat 345 for his eve. ning's efforts. Harry Mathieu witf 20e. Bill Sullivan with 291, Fran kie Kerner with BIO and Freddie Kelley with S12 took very little oi the burden off their team -matt Rinaldi but enough to win tho match by 36 pins. Al brought about dozen of his girl rooteri along with him and they made things lively from the start to thu Irnish (Take a bow girls). At presi Nme Murray Carter representing
 e Street Dept team and Al De
 enski were still in huddlt
