THE WORLD OF
SPORTS
By L. VI. DAVIS for (ANP)

Despite the magnificent showing
of Howard Jones Of Virginia Union
university at the recent Penn re-
lays in which he pole vaulted Is
feet inches to tie for second, the
fact that he had to drop out at
that distance is a direct reflection
upon the typical Negro college in
it's treatment of track and field
events.
James d. Parks, coach at Lin
coin T., (Mo.) has plenty of pithy
comment to make on this subject
in the current Opportunity maya
zine, stating that in our colleges
the emphasis is given almost sole
ly to football while the track and
field athlete is left to shift for him
self.
l will go Coach Parks one better
and say that, despite the promi-
nence given Negro football in the
races colleges and the attitude OF
die-hard alumni and enthusiasts
who really ought to know better,
our version of the game is a farce
compared with that exhibited by
white institutions. The only col
legiate sport in which colored can
hold their own in competition with
whites of the same classification is
basketball.
Howard Jones, in typical fash
ion, was forced in spirit to fold his
pole in his hip pocket and go by
bicycle to Philadelphia. Where
white competitors brought out
large assortment Of the best bam-
boo available. Jones was lucky to
have what amounted to a couple Of
WORKOUT fishing poles which
should have been retired on a pen
sion when Dewey took Manila.
And if this amazing lad had not had
the advantage of high school train
ing under good coaches in Philadel-
phia, he would have had to drop
out at the typical Negro standard
of around IL feet.
Naturally, Virginia Union, like
most other dusky colleges, hasn't
got the money to hire a track
coach. The man who teaches foot
ball-and who knows little else,
often not even football-has to
handle track and field aspirants, if
any. This is in itself a good argu-
ment for the iunking of 20 per
cent of our little jerkwater colleges
and consolidating them into bigger
institutions where there will be no
duplication of courses.
There is no reason at all why
two schools within spittin' distance
of one another should have two
half-starved professors teaching
literature when one could handle
the combined students of both in
situations and still have enough
time left to write novel; or why
a football coach should sweat blood
trying to get together a team when
the annexation Of material from the
neighboring school now merged
with his would both ease his wor-
ries and make room for the hiring

LIV NC IN THE
ARGENTINE

Last week / promisd that
l would compare the Argen-
tine with the United States.
Perhaps it were wiser to at
tempt to contrast the two,
since there are far more
points of difference than
similarity.
We scarcely come in contact
with Ian english speaking person.
There is a colony, of course, OF
both English and Americans, which
is rather small. Because we like to
absorb the native atmosphere, and
because we feel that we have al
ready had a good deal Of expert
ence with English speaking per-
sons, we do not seek it or go there
often.
