Ask How Negro
Athletes Fare
In The South

New York, Dec, 81, (ANP(-
Spors writers from the metro
politan dailies are beginning to
decry the action of the A. A. u.
with reference to the Olympic
Games in Berlin. Says the chief
of them all, Dan Parker: DAILY
Mirror" america will partici-
pate in the Olympic Games next
year, but it has served notice on
Germany that it doesn't approve
of the religious and racial hatred
being fomented in Maitland. When
almost so per cent of the votes
cast at the A. A. U. convention
called upon America to boycott
the games, it is a convincing DEM
onstration of the fact that feeling
against the present regime in
Germany isn't confined to the
small racial group that is being
prosecuted by the Hitler govern
ment.
"Now that we have taken ac-
ton on a fragrant abuse of the
code of craftsmanship 1000 miles
away, it would be a good idea to
consider a situation just as unfair
right here in America. I refer to
the discrimination against colored
athletes in the South. Jewish
athletes in this country aren't
barred from he Olympic team, if
they have sufficient athletic abil-
ity to make it. But if a colored
athlete is unfortunate to live be-
low the Mason-Dixon line, his
chance OF making the Olympic
team r just about as good as
Halle Selassie's of becoming
Speaker Of the House Of Rrepre-
sentatives.
Wouldn't it be poetic justice if
the German people started a move
to boycott the u. S. team on that
account?"

With both sides claiming that

of the alleged gun battle stag

noon, October 20, during which
Lucy Cannon, 8 yea rold daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. j. c. Can
non was seriously wounded and
EnOch Houser was killed, and
the date of the trial was set
for Monday.
According TO reports follow
in gthe hearing before the
grand jury the charges of man
slaughter against Blackburn
and and Parnel that of murder
against Bowman was changed
to assault with a dealy weapon
with intent to kill based upon
the shooting of the little Can
non girl and in addition to be-
ing indicted on the aforemen-
toned charges, Joe Louis
trainer also faces a charge of
perjury due to his persistent
testimony that he was unarmed
and did not participate in the
battle.

Colgate Coach
And Team Are
Square Shooters

New York, Dec. 81, amp
When the final discussions of the
brilliant football season recently
closed, have been ended, one of
the things that will stand out in
the minds of all who followed the
gridiron was the very fine stand
taken by Andy Kerr coach of the
noted Colgate University "Red
Raiders" who played Iowa and
0zie SIMMONS. Before the game,
Kerr told his men to forget that
Simmons was colored and to treat
him just like any other member
of the Iowa team. This is in dis
tinct contrast to instructions
given cher teams where it is al
legged that get Simmons" was
tho password. After the game
which Colgate lost largely
through the super-efforts of Sim
mons, the colored star went to the
Colgate dressing room and told
Kerr that his team was the great
est bunch of sportsmen he had
ever played against. This was
q tribute to the entire Colgate
team as well as to the coach, who
has never been guilty of a faux
pas along the color line. Kerr is
one of the football instructors at
the annual school held at Hamp-
ton Institute.

MEET OTIS THOMAS

ways be a pleasure TO IaIk Win
Otis Thomas, former Golden
Gloves heavyweight champion,
nov following the trail blazed by
Joe Louis, because one a feel
a six foot, one inch 198-pounder
like your correspondent to now
and then be in the company of
people who could look upon him
in the physical light of a little
brother, Otis Thomas, except
when fighting, weighs around
30 pounds.
Quite naturally one is very
polite in addressing Mr.. Thomas.
| mean, a sensible person doesn't
take undue liberties when talking
to a young man built powerfully
enough to go lion hunting with a
broken arm and no gun even if
the young man does resemble a
college student. Furthermore,
Mr.. Thomas was showing us very
impressive pictures printed in the
st. Louis dailies of his f%ive-round
knockout victory over Irwin STRIFE
bel, 243-pound Italian leather
singer, on Dec. A.
III haven't lost any n of my
four fights since turning profess
sional last june" Mr.. Thomas
told us, but I was held to a draw
by Adolph Water"
This Water chap is something
of a trouble maker. He was one
of the few to stay the limit with
Joe Louis and the opponent Joe
says has given h ny his hardest
fight. Striebel, too, had been q
trif1e bothersome. Twice before,
when both Otis and the Italian
were amateurs, they met and
Thomas got both decisions, al
though spectators pr OF e d.
Their recent bout was a natural
for ST. Louis, and this time Otis
gave his ring foe a personal taste
of Adowa. It's getting to be a
habit for a kinsman of Mussolini
to lose out in the same ring with
one of S~olassie's cousins.
Mr.. Thomas, as he told of him
self, sat playing the steam radi-
ator like an accordion. This was
all right, as in cold weather the
radiator replaces the ~frigidaire
anyway. But next time he comes
by, I shall arrange to have a sup
ply of iron crowbars. 4 imagine
he could tie some fancy knots in
them.
It seems the young boxer, now
"a, was born in Charlottesville,
Ark. He has been boxing since
coming here two years ago. In
1884 he was national and interna-
tional Golden Gloves champion
and last year was r%unner-up, los
ing to Lorenzo Pack. Since turn
ing pro in June, Otis, a south
paw, has been made over into an
orthodox right handler which has
greatly improved his effective
ness. AS a matter of fact, when
Thomas went to the A. A. u. meet
in st. Louis in 1884 critics won
dered who would go farther, Otis
or Joe Louis.
Thomas loves to fight. He is
one of the strongest looking lads
since Hercules, and if he takes
care of himself should be one of
the best for the next eight or ten
years. He at present lacks Joe's
cleverness, but I'd rather be
kicked by a mule than hit by
Thomas. In addition to Joe and
Otis, two other Golden Gloves
champions were destined to do
their bit to muss up the boxing
picture. Lorenzo Pack is really
going places, but Clinton Bridges
seems to have fallen by the way
side.
BY the way, Striebel was cham
pion of Missouri, which makes
Thomas kingpin now of that
state. There are only At more
to go to get the U. S. diadem.
Otis is managed by David H. Cap
low, and assistant-managed by
Chandler 0wen-which he may in
time overcome.
