St. Thomas Protege Of Father Divine
 To Show At Arena

If the state athletic commission suddenly decides to emulate New York state and compel boxers to use their right names, 1t may be embarrassing as all get out at the Arena next Monday night when new matchmaker Johnny Attell presents his initial fight card
 For, in the co-feature, there is a slx-foot, 200-pound colored young ster who insists his name is Saint Thomas. He won't answer to Joe Doakes or Thomas Henry Clay Jef- ferson Washington. It's Saint Thomas, nothin' else but. He is a disciple of Father Divine and in common with many of the devout followers of that sect chose a new name that reflected his "gittin' re- ligion."
 When Saint Thomas fights, Father Divine or a personal following cheers him on-hardly with the tra- ditional Divine watchword of Peace, Brother, Peace, but with approprite moral support witllal. But, here's the angle.
 Ackc MeeLS SaInL
 Monday night Saint Thomas will be pitted against Zeke Brown, also a 2O0-pounder, from Georgia, who is not a disciple of Father Divine. Zeke will be doing everything in his power to deny the divinity of Saint Thomas and will try, if possi- ble, to knock him into Father Diyine's lap. The Saint has had live bouts and won them all by knockouts. Hence Zeke's task may not be an easy one.
 The bout shares top billing with another six-rounder bringing new faces here. In it. Julio Galluci, 18- year old Hartfordite who fought in amateur ranks as Johnny Duke. will go after his 18th straight in an un- beaten pro career at the expense of Leo (Re0 Brown. l35-pound De- troit Golden Glove champion.
 Two other sizes and a pair of fours will complete the card. New faces, new prices-55 cents 10 $i.l5 will prevail along with an 8 D. m. opener

New York, April 6.-Had I been Jimmy Gallagher, Louis Noyikof would have sat in Los Angeles until well done on both sides, and with out as much as second offer. Lou NoYikoh could have stunned himself in southern California even though the Chicago Cubs finished ninth.
 Whether Novikof is right or wrong makes no difference. With the nation in war up to it's ears, the pickering Of ball player and his club in public prints is in poor taste.
 With millions of young men vastly more important than Novikoff risk ing their lives in the armed forces, here was disgustingly healthy 27- year-old athlete demanding boost ;S what, under the circumstances, undoubtedly was a fat enough con- tract.
 Novikoff's remarks: Its war of nerves" and I'm staying here until something happens are nauSeating
 Novikoffs attitude makes you wonder what he knows about war of nerves. It is just as well for the Mad Russian and others of his kind that the pick of our country's boys didn't "stay there until something happened" Much too much would have happened elsewhere.
 Wasting time, even If it's for play Ing baseball, is never justified and inexcusable now with good people counting the days, hours, minutes for obvious reasons.
 Reading about robust young men playing baseball for profit is tough enough these days. Reading about a malcontent professional ball player goes against the grain.

PrincetOn'S Harvey Kelsey Is The Brightest White Hope To Break Negroes Sprint Reign
By ROBERT MELLACE NEA Stan COrrespOndent

Princeton - Brightest white hope to break negro supremacy in sprint ing events is Harvey Marion Kelsey, Jr, of Princeton, sophomore of Pittsfield, Mass, who has travelled 100 yards in 9.5, 220 in 2ll, and who defeated IC-4A champion Pvt. Barney Ewell in the Penn Relays.
 Not since Frank Wykoff of Southern California was rambling the century in 94 dozen years back has the line of great dusky champions been pressed.
 It has had such swifties as Jesse Owens, Eddie Tolan, Frank Met calf, Eulace Peacock, Herbert Thompson, Eddie Conwell and Ewell.
 But Private Ewell, who has reigned the last three years, got a stern-side view of Kelsey as the 20-year-old Phillips Academy lad stopped over the soggy Franklin Field track in 98.
 You can make allowances for the fact that brown Barney may be beyond his peak, but you can't fall back on the hypothesis that Army life tied his heels.
 GETS ANOTHER CHANGE
 Kelsey Is an artillery private seventh class, lives in barracks at the University, and observes all the niceties Of the military,
 To get his name in that little black book, Kelsey must compete against Ewell again, next time in the 1C-4A championships Ran dalls Island Stadium, New York, May IS. Unfortunately, the meet has been changed to a one-day af- fair, which means Kelsey will have to run six heats to reach the fi- nals of tho 100 and 220. He tells you he'll do 1t If he has to run eight.
 As a freshman he did 9,6. but a nerve injury in his leg hobbled him late In the spring, In November a tank mine in an R. o. T. c. demon- stratlon exploded and fragments in his eyes and hands put him in the hospital where he was blind for l3 days. Indoor competition was out because Kelsey is slow starter, a strong finisher.
 LIKES TO RUN WITH BEST
 Princetonians didn't like 1t when Penn officials opened the field to service men because they didn't think 1t best to throw Kelsey in with seasoned performers. He loved 1t and ran away from Eddie Conwell, IC-4A 60-yard champion, on the anchor leg of the sprint relay the day before he got to Ewell
 A javelin thrower in his first year at the Andover prep school, Kelsey ran a sprint race in street shoes, finished second.
 His ambition has been to tangle with Ewell and other great runners because, like all champions, Kelsey wants to be i'll there with the best.
 Dark, five-ten, and 168-pound Private Kelsey will report for &C., tive duty at the end of May and he wants his name in that record book. Coach Matty Geis has to tell him nothing, and asks: How does one coach a boy who has run the 100 In 9.5?"
 Lest the Axis look upon this as a piece pitting the dark race against the white, one of Kelsey's biggest boosters is Private Ewell, the champ himself, who predicts his brother in-arms has the best chance of be- ing the sprint champion, and on this side of the pond the superman is still the guy who gets to the tape first without benefit of genealogy.
