ROWING ALONG SPORTSDOM
BY MABE K0UNTzE
Would Bench Gill

That B. C.'s affection for Colored
People is simply tremendous is
proven this week by Boston College
football schedule reports for next fall
which lists more "jim crow" elevens
than ever before, among them Tulane,
Clemson, Georgetown, Auburn, and
Tennessee.
Should Gil Walker (who was star
freshman halfback at B. c., remem-
ber?), turn out for varsity football
next fall, he will set a new record for
being benched-at least five times
during a single season.
Presumably, Boston College will
have to tender five testimonials for
Walker. Such a benching will GER
tainly rate high in B. c. estimation!
Walker is too good a boy for Ever
EFT citizens, including the Mayor, to
allow him to continue his schooling at
college which defes our leaders.
Walker can and should be the pride
of Everett He deserves every chance.

Bullock Spoke

Reliable and secret sources inform
me that the Hubs great current states
man, Matthew w. Bullock, arose and
addressed the B. C. representatives
at the recent testimonial to Lou Mont
gomery.
The daily papers told what Mont,
gomery said, and, (of course), told
what certain paleface celebrities said,
including a typical cracker joke by
Coach Frank Leahy. But only the
GUARDIAN reporter what Matt Bull
lock said. I suppose only the GUAR
DIAN will comment upon what Mr..
Bullock said. There seems to be an
effective censor against Matthew w;
Bullock's brilliant and fearless stand
against B. c. discrimination even
though the gentleman told the high
and mighty football barons what he
thought right to their teeth and further
more told 'em to take the message
back B. C.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Matt
Bullock spoke.
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1941-02-01
B. u. Good School

Boston University, Tufts. and
other New England colleges exist for
those who cant play" at Boston Col
lege. These schools now send teams
to distant places. Once "little"(?)
Tufts College will offer Gil Walker
just as much, if not more, track fame
than he will get at B. C. and, as
matter of record, Walter Hall, the
crack hurdler, is a B. C. transfer if
anybody wants to look it up. Hall
figured he had a better chance at
Tufts.
Then there's Boston University which
has had more colored athletes and less
"benching" over a long period than
B. C. will ever have. The Eagles in
two years have done more benching
than B. U. has in 100 years.
AS for jobs, after graduation, B. U.
placed Jesse Chase as coach at Sam
Houston College, Texas, and Rolly
Bernard at N. C. A. & T., while Tufts
has Randy Taylor as head coach at
Tillotson, Texas, Bi-state grid cham
pions.
l could go on, pointing out Dart
mouths Matt Bullock, Harvard's Bill
Lewis, Brown US Fritz Pollard, and
others. Boston College isn't so big!

Blasted B. C..

There is a tendency among some Of
us to "talk low" when amidst the
masters" who come to honor US be-
cause we've stepped aside to allow
them to raid the ice-box of democracy
(all for themselves). AS long as we
do this we can expect numerous head
pats and bright new "honors" of all
sorts. And as long as the speeches
ran along in this groove last week, l
can imagine the militant Matt Bullock
awaiting his turn desperately.
But appropriately enough it was a
clergyman, the Rev. F. Havis Davis OF
Union Baptist Church, Cambridge, who
set the stage for Mr.. Bullock and
according to the uncensored reports
reaching me) Rev. Davis did nice
piece of Suggesting. Thereupon up
rose Mr.. Bullock.
Well, you know the rest from what
your friends and the GUARDIAN

pink to red.

prejudiced white lad and comrade Of
Eddie, suffered a stomach ailment but
ran a courageous and thrilling anchor
for the Tufts mile relay quartet after
team captain Digger sped the Jumbo
relay off to a good first leg over Col
gate which never caught up with the
Tufts team, one of the best at the
moment.
Archie Harris Here
One of the greatest all around ath-
letes in the country, Archie Harris of
U. Indiana was in the Prout Games
without any advance fanfare although
Archie is a Big Ten outdoor field event
champion and one of the best college
football ends in America. However
Harris is not a great indoor runner, in
fact, has never tried the relay before
and he showed it last week altho the
Hoosiers beat Princeton. Archie and
Mare Jenkins, the other colored relay
competitor, were the first Indiana U.
boys seen here in years.
Dave Lawyer and captain George
Hagans of N. Y. U. ran the Holy Cross
relay into the ground and Bounding
Bob Dixon, running for a much in
ferior talented Rhode Island State
relay, delivered sparkling but futile
anchor against Fordham. Dixon is
still picture of pretty performance.
Northeastern was aided considerably
by Reggie Cook in the freshman relay
win over B. C. and NJ. l. T. Cook has
the makings, as has this Lew Watkins
who again led the Mechanics Arts to
victory over Rindge.

ions, won their twelfth game of the
season by defeating the powerful Dun
bar Associates of Cambridge Sat. al
the Lincoln Jr High Gym in Maiden
From the starting whistle it was a
fast game with the Dunbars taking the
lead. They were soon overtaken by the
Royal Celtics and from then on the
local boys were never overtaken. Scott

the visitors and their aggressiveness
kept the Dunbar fighting all the way

800 Yd. Northeastern

The 18th Northeastern Interscholas-
tic championships at Boston Garden
last Saturday afternoon featured a
new 300 yard meet schoolboy record
by lanky Lew Watkins of Mechanic
Arts H. S.
Artisans Triumph
Watkins, looking like 'old times,
raced his 300 yard trial heat in the
new meet record time of 1876 seconds.
And for the second straight year,
the popular Boston schoolboy won the
Northeastern 300 yd final and cham
pionship. Watkins, on the pole
Jumped out front to defeat State cham
pion Al Pochowskey of Brockton, in
BASS, and thus helped the locals to
dethrone Lawrence H. S.: by 212
point margin over second place Rindge
Tech of Cambridge as Lawrence fin
ished sixth.
]. Lewis Versatile
Jerome Lewis of Rindge Tech aided
his team to second place by winning
the high jump at SIT II inches and by
finishing third in the as yard high
hurdles for 8 of the 16 points scored
by the Technicians.
Watkins who divided his time be-
tween the high jump and 800 yd. trials
took one last hurried jump before
rushing back to the 800 final, and he
also led off the Mechanic Arts relay, tc
share the versatile chief roles with
Jerome Lewis who really looks like q
conner.
Ed Medley, Lawrence H. S. track
captain and defending so yd dash
champion was shut out in one of the
surprise happenings of the meet in
which Barton Conrad gave Rindge
Tech a point with a fourth behind Kir-
kiles of Lowell.
st. Clair Ward led off the second
place Boston Trade relay in a race won
by Worcester Classical; AL Jackson
anchored the third place Boston Com
merce; Chef Arnold anchored third
place Roxbury Memorial in a race won
by Brighton, and Rindge Tech, aided
by Charlie West and Ralph King, de-
feated the newly crowned Mechanic
Arts.

LEFTY BROWNS
DIAMOND DOPE

Editors Note: In tOday's baseball
column Lefty introduces GUARDIAN
readers to several stars of the National
League.
STARS OF TODAY
To write a column without mention
ing Terrible" ferris McDuffie, age 80,
and former super right handed pitcher
of the N. Y. Black Yankees, is like
writing a book without moral.
McDuffie In Mexico
ferris should be lift to you fellows
who would like to be pitchers but who
haven't as much "stuff" on the ball as
desired. McDuffie's greatest asset is
control, he having almost no curve at
all. In three games pitched against
the number-one moundsman, Satchel
Paige, ferris emerged the victor twice
and last season saw 'Mac" in Mexico
winning 25 ball games to cop the hurl-
ing prize of 1910. And if the "player
ban" is lifted McDuffie will receive his
contract from the Homestead Grays
this year.
Curry Bats $40
Next we have Homer "Goose" Curry,
35 year old Baltimore Elite Giant out
fielder, hailing from Memphis and who
gives one the impression of aunt Emma
in the field. l believe he has contri-
buted to pitchers having heart failure
more than anything l can think of.
But Curry makes up his deficiency in
the garden when he comes to bat. For
the last five years Curry's batting
average has been well over $40 and
beside leading he League in stolen
bases he will steal your heart with his
sensational base notwithstanding
home from second base on an inield
ground-out! Curry, without doubt is
our greatest crowd pleaser.
'Lennie" in Porto Rico
About the most versatile of the
younger diamond greats is six footer
Leonard Pearson, age "a, of the New
ark Eagles. This young giant, weigh
ing 200 lbs, played seven different
positions last season. Whenever a
player is injured, manager Dick Lundy
waves him into the spot which Lennie
fills most ably. He only pitched three
games last season, winning all. In
cidentally Pearson dropped me a card
from Puerto Rico where he is playing
shortstop and is hitting .419 after
three months. Yes, put this young
man on your star parade. Next week
I'll tell you about Leon Day.
AS I've said before, I am scouting
young ball players and would like to
hear from good prospects. Write me
in care of the GUARDIAN, and re-
member all questions about the Col
ored National League will be gladly
answered in this column. And until
next week, so long everybody.
