MIR Wins
ACAA Grown

As was expected, prior to tour
nament time, the Jones Hi School
girls basketball team ran away
with everything decisiyely to earn
the final shea at the high flying
Augusta five, whom they defeated
30-l6 in the finals Of the ACAA
Girls basketball tournament held
here last Saturday.
First round pairing found Augu-
sta VS.. Dunbar; Mariana, bye;
Cotton Plant VS.. Jones. Augusta
defeated Dunbar $3.50. Jones over
whelmed Cotton Plant 1920 Jones
was led in this triumph by Waugh,
forward, who accounted for %
points. Cotton Plants Jackson and
Davis fed 10 and 6 points, respec-
lively.
In the second round, Marianns
tangled with Augusta in hair
raiser that was nip and tuck from
opening whistle to the end. Mari
anna led 6-10 at the end Of the
first half. The second half saw an
aroused Augusta five come back to
take a last minute 1916 win by
virtue of basket by Morris in
the last 2 seconds Of the game.
The finals saw Augusta badly
outplayed by Jones, who won cas-
lily, 30-16, to cap the Safe Girls

Thompson's track career by many
expert track railbirds. The well
built mulatto streak lightning
was chronic sufferer from pulled
tendons bane of track athletes.
II prevented him from taking
the national crown last year at
100 yards, and it bothered him
greatly throughout the indoor sea-
son of 194l. But this year that
added PEARL HARBOR to Ameri-
cas- always to be remembered
dates, has seen Thompson stand
oue against a sensational field
like q sore thumb on an otherwise
sound maulie. A fortnight ago out
| Chicago way, Thompson ran 40
wards in 4:4 seconds as $4,000
wall-eyed track fanatics screamed
in delight. In order to run a short
stretch of 40 yards in such time,
an athlete must have absolut-
ely flawless reflex action to say
nothing of prime coordination.
Thompson accomplished a stunt
that Columbia UPS brown bullet,
Ben Johnson, had performed four
years prior in that very same city
But seriously, this Thompson
youngster is a real gritty lad. No
athlete in any of sports varied
theatres possess greater intestin-
al forti.ude (plain guts) than the
popular Jerseyite. His recent 81
performance for 60 yards (on
three occasions), rates him with
the greats of yesteryear and those
of the era that saw Jesse Owens
towrope the entire field. Oul

Blackburn Hears Fight From
Room; Champ Visits Him Sun.

, CHICAGO, April 2, amp
Jack Blackburn. who was kept by
pneumonia from helping train Joe
Louis for lis bout Friday night
with Abe Simon, heard Gil about
it in person Sunday when the
champion visited him in his pri-
vate room as Proyident hospital.
Louis felt rather badly about the
matter, for he had promised to belt
cut his huge Toe in three rounds.
Instead, it took six. He talked by
long distance telephone to Black
burn Friday afternoon, several
hours before the match, and also
told him he would drop around
Sunday.
The famous trainer, who has
been in the corner at all of Joe's
previous professional appearances.
returned to Chicago from Hot
Springs where he had been taking
baths for sciaAics and was floored
by pneumonia before he had .
chance to join Joe in training camp.
DR.. Harold Thatcher, brilliant
young Provident physician, pulled
him through.
The SO years old trainer had been
in Provident q week prior to the
fight and had to listen in by radio
when Dir. Thatcher wouldn't let
him 60 to New York. He heard
the announcer read his good luck
telegram over the air and then
turned his attention to the light.
AS tie gong rang, he stared at
the ceiling and kept looking up,
except for an occasional smile and
a slight cough, for five rounds. At
The end of the fifth, when Simon
was battered to the floor, he spoke
his first words:
"He's in the brig"
As the final frame started,
Blackburn smiled and nodded his
head. And he kept on smiling when
the light was over and Joe spoke
a few words to him over the ra-
do.
Joe's visit Sunday was very
quiet. While newspapermen and
photographers waited, the champ
ion slipped in and out Of Provident
having quiet chat with Black
burn without interruption.
Incidentally, had Joe been able
to visit the hospital several days
sooner he might have seen his
brother, Alonzo Barrow, who earl
Ter in the week underwent a tom
at Provident.

ENTIRE NATION HAS
RATIFIED S5-MILE SPEED

Governor O'CoDor as chairman q
he Council 81 State Governments
has notified Joseph +, Eastman. head
- shs Ofsscs & Defense Tra-S2ss~
tation that al forey-elghC States m
the Union have put into effect the
S5-mile victory speed limit.
Governor O'Conor received notice
from the five remaining States, Ari-
iona, Arkansas, Nevada, Nebraska,
and North Dakota, that the new speed
limit had been made effective either
through proclamation or legislation.
The action was taken by the States
at the suggestion of Governor O'Con-
or after the Baruch report had re-
commended that such speed limit be
put into force as means of saving
necessary rubber.
The voluntary action by the States
beats by days, and even weeks, in
some cases, the Federal thirty-five
mile speed limit which became eff
fective last week,
