proposed 12-round bout between Babe
Varila of New Bedford, former N. E.
Middleweight Champion, and Henry
Chmielewski, the current N. E. Middle
weight Champion, scheduled to take
place at the Boston Arena Friday night
was postponed when word reached the
promoter that the clever Babe was the
victim of influenza and confined to bed.
Consequently, the return clash was
called off. The promoter plans to stage
the affair at a later date. Verila
dropped 12-round decision to the
hard biting "Chemmy" in a searching
encounter held at the Boston Garden
last month Babe claimed he did not
appear at his best as he had entered
the ring before fully recovering from
an attack of grippe.

What Is Segregation

Segregation is the special Amer
lean means of branding Colored
Americans as the interiors Of in
feriors in public status.
when the white South found it
self confronted with the federal sta
tus of equality for Colored people,
the former slaves-equality Of citi-
zenship, of freedom, Of franchise
rights, backed by the national gov
ernment-it selected the denial Of
presence and of service in places
opened for public patronage as the
one great way to brand Colored
people as having been a slave race
and make them forever the scorn Of
civil society.
ut is a very effective measure.
Colored people are traitors to them
selves to aid and abet the idea BY
self-segregation."
