CHICAGO, June 16.-The first
really important chunk of betting
money to appear in Chicago since
the matching of Jim Braddock

with the announcement of Frank

championship next Tuesday night
in Comiskey Park.
1t is believed the clinking gold
coins were sent here by an East
ern syndicate after their scouts
had carefully examined Louis in
training and found him slow and
shiftlesS while Braddock, for most
of his training period, opened
their blinkers with more stuff
than he has, shown in his IL years
in the ring.
Why, in face Of the training
camp exhibitions, the big time bet.

for every one they might possibly
win on Louis is a matter that
must be placed among the lido

Possesses Punch
It must be taken for granted
however, that they figure Louis
in spite of his sluggiShness which
has been sadly genuine and most
decidedly has not been the result
of a prepared build-up for the
gate, packs a heavy enough punch
and enough power Of youth to de
feat Braddock, who already has
been beaten 10 times.
Louis, they figure, as bad as he
is, is good enough to whip Brad
dock, as good as he Is.
This is the first time a heavy.
weight champion has gone into
the ring against the challenger
with the odds overwhelmingly
against him, and it's also the first
time the champion has donned
the gloves as a veritable pauper
while the challenger wallowed in
silver dollars. Braddock is broke ;
Louis has several hundred thous.
and Smackers.
When ever a heavyweight title
match is made, a table always is
printed in some odd thousand
journals showing that the betting
commissioners were q bit touched
in the head in making their odds:
the champion invariably has been
made a heavy favorite as a matter
Of routine.

After l read your paper l looked
around at my neighborhood mer-

my money there, sometimes as

l have been trading there have the
two partners employed a boy of

don't think it is fair, do you? I'll
wager over 1000 of the customers
of that drug store are Negro, as /
am. In the three grocery stores
controlled by our white friends
there is not a colored boy even
making deliveries. Now maybe
this condition is not the fault of
these business men. Maybe it's all
our fault. Maybe we have never

condition. l have two children and

Azo&AMAmDtAazlma@aMSacE S&ANouosSoe1l0sHSeSA
Last weeks issue of the Satur-
day Evening Post contains an in
teresting article on o. o. Mcintyre,
whose column New York Day by
Day" is published in hundreds of
daily papers and is read by millions
of readers.
The article disclOses that McIn-
tyre secures the material for his
column from four sources: His
bOyhOOd memory, his reading, his
observation and from his mail.
From his correspondents come
about half of the material, which
recast in the Mcintyre mold be-
comes the Mcintyre column.
Whereat this columnist turns
sad, for the conviction is forced
upon him that from none of the
Mcintyre aides can he expect to
draw very deeply. His boynood
memories are clouded by the all but
nsurmountable difficulties that
faced the Negro youth of that day,
struggling for an education in the
separate schools of the period,
fighting his way many tunes
against physical obstruction and
always opposed by barrier OF vo-
cal insult hardest of all to bear.
Desperately discouraged when a
democratic victory in the national
elections gave new life to the
lynching spirit of the South and
threatened the death of the meager
opportunities that were his.
There is little in that bOyhOod
experience to make for pleasant
reading in this day, save the
thought that the discOmfOrts and
discOuragements could not quench
the spirit of thousands OF Negro
youth, ambitious and brave, VINO
went on to develop a Booker L.
Washington, Dubois, a COleridge
Taylor and a host of men and
women whose lives remain a living
memory of mdOmitable courage
and accomplishment.
From reading and observation
have come a more abundant foun-
tain of precious notatiOns, fortu-
nately not yet exhausted.
But from the reservoir of pub
ic-expressed opinion has come just
about nothing at all. None OF the
thousands of hints of interesting
happenings, of anecdote or anus
ing incident, of exciting experience,
of unnoticed but important history
of persons or things. Not even the
concentrations and censures, all o.
which have helped the Mcintyre on
to fame.
But at least we can approve, as
we have already adopted the Nc
Intyre code of ethics: Never use
the power of the press to fight an

ahead is quite hazardous. Had Sena-
tor Simmons bolted AL Smith in 1886 in
stead of 1928 the chances are strong
that the Senator would be breaking
the all-time record for continuous SEN
ate service. But it was fatal timing
in 1928 with it's nearness to 1880.
Similarly, Senator Bailey may find
1912 voters less liberal toward him
than the primary Of 1886 was. But
the reputed "Stand-by-Bailey" club is
believed to have more concern for
1910 than for the two years later pri-
mary in which Bailey may be can
didate to succeed himself. The Stand
by-Bailey people probably would op-
pose the Roosevelt candidate for pres
ident. It is not yet accepted in Ra-
leigh that Bailey may himself be
candidate for the nomination, though
this suggestion has been made innum-
cradle times. And color is given to it
by very close friends of Senator Bailey
who would not be surprised if Bailey
is seriously considered as the nomi-
nee." 49, 90 ss
Beyond the purpose of promoting
more conservative presidential candi-
dacy than the Roosevelt success or
prove or of advancing the Bailey name
for national conservation, the propos-
ed Stand-By-Baileyite could formu-
late no timely excuse for such a club
but there are good men everywhere
in the State who think that such
club is to be formed.
