NEW YORK SUN
PRAISES OWENS

Phone Main 1920

NEW YORK (C)-The New
York Sun gave editorial praise to
colored athletes at the Berlin o.
ympics while taking exception to
the term "black auxiliaries" used
by a German newspaper Ia describ.
ing them as a part Of the Ameri-
can team. Says the Sun: s"Auxili.
aries Is scarcely the proper descrip-
ton for the Negro athletes who
took six first places, three second
places and two third places for
their team. Owens, Johnson. Wood
ruff, Williams, Albritton, Metcane,
Robinson, Pollard and LuValle ar,
athletes who would have made any
team of which they were members
s.rong favorites for the Olympic
track and field championship. They
elaborated with such colleagues
as Meadows, Towns, Hardin, Car
penter and Cunningham to make
the American sweep the mems
track and field events impressive.
The representatives of the United
States had a n.c. share in break
ing records. The most brilliant in
dividual performance was that Of
the Negro star. Jesse Owens, who
is entitled to enjoy all the superla-
tives used about him while he can,
for the way that records fell at
Los Angeles and again at Berlin
suggests that more records will
fall at Toxic In 194O."
