Beaumont and In New York and
Philadelphia before coming to
New England where we are in
clined to regard him as an ex-
elusive local hero. I always
think of Jackman pitching for
New England ball clubs, not
ably the famous old Philadel-
phia Colored Giants under man
ager Danny Mcclellan. Jack
manis now nearly 46 years old.
We know most of the rest. He
used to pitch at least three
games a week and earn SITS. per
game, plus $40. for every strike
out. He'd strike out from 1919
batters a game. He's now play
ing for the Watertown Arsenal
club and still going strong. Any
way you look at this story, Big
Bill Jackman is. a wonderful
guy. And so too is Jerry Mason
of the Boston GLOBE.

Colored boys being barred from
the Majors. After all we fans

not then matter how many
times the sepia National Leag-
uers are slapped down by Fore
River, or any other club not
listed on the Major League ros-
ter.
Since / have received a fine
letter from a group of Boston
baseball men who declare they
are working toward the objec-
tive of placing Colored players
into the Big Leagues, / somehow
feel they must be inclined to
agree with Mr.. Isaacs that the
present happenings at Fenway
Park have only served to estab-
fish the Colored National League
somewhat below the industrial
workers league represented by
Fore River. AS AL Smith would
say, we can only go by the rec
ords.
If it is going to take the unit
ed efforts of Josh Gibson, Sat-
chel Paige, Willie Wells, Mule
suttleS, Sammy Bankhead, and
all the rest to beat Fore River
then the Colored National
League is not so hot 1t is time
somebody proved otherwise.

League Loses Prestige

On the way into the Boston
Victory Rally last Sunday I met
Walter IKE" Isaacs, well known
baseball and basketball star
who is well up on Colored
league players.
We'll, l see that our boys
have lost another game out at
FenWay Park" said Walter who
used to follow all the games
down at Lynn and who has al
ways hoped that Colored league
teams would some day play in
Boston.
ut seems to me that the Col
ored National League is losing
prestige by all these defeats, :"
said Walter who is one grand
athlete himself, And if the Col
ored League stars can't beat a
little workers league outfit how
can they expect to impress the
average white fan that Colored
are good enough for the Major
Leagues?"
This is good question. 1t
should be considered by the pro-
motors.

Stirring Notes
From Arena

Gov. Leverett saltonstail
sent a message which said in
part: Never before in the his
tory of the United States has
there been so great need for
true understanding, mutual
trust, and complete coopera-
ton between Americans Of ev-
cry race, religion and creed.
Such meetings as yours give
new life to the principles OF
freedom which brought our
fathers to Plymouth Rick over
300 years ago"
Rev. A. v. Bliss declared
This is a global meeting be-
cause this is a global issue. Our
freedom is not secure until
the freedom of China and III
dia is secure" The meeting, he
said, shows the world where
Boston Stands-where 1t has
always stood since the days of
the Abolitionist Movement. I
wish it could be reported in
Berlin as well as in Detroit"

Representatives And
Senators Endorse Plan
Made By Francis {. Kelly

Former 1t. Gov. Francis e.
Kelly has received answers
from more than $50 Congress-
men and Senators, in answer
to his recent letter to each
Congressman asking that they
take the proper action to COM
pei Major General Lewis B.
Hershey, head of the Selective
Service to establish a separate
class for persons physically
unfit for military service, in
stead of the present procedure
of placing all such persons in
Glass 4-F, which class has been
officially designated by Gen.
Hershey as the class for all
persons mentally, morally or
physically UNIT and dishonor-
ably discharged service men.
Kelly pointed out in his letter
to Congress that Major Gen
eral Hershey had designated
many other separate and dis
tinct classes, including that of
Alb for exempt government
officials.
Some of the answers follow:
Copy of letter received from
Senator David I. Walsh, Chair
man, Naval Affairs COMMITTEE:
My dear Mr.. Kelly: I have
before me your letter of July l.,
and have read with interest
your correspondence with Ma
jor General Lewis B. Hershey

sition, in my opinion, is sound,

Cu1ans Star AfieId

Cubans we're dazzling in the
field as the visitors turned in
spectacular stops, catches and
throws not exceeded by the Red
soX Or Braves this season.
Nevertheless these were not the
CubanS at their best. Their ace
pitchers, including Dave Barn
hill sat this one out. The regu-
lar batting order was juggled.
Hard hitting ShoWboat Thomas
was not at first, Rivero was not
at second and Brooks, catch
cr was playing the outfield,
LinarCS the left fielder was
playing first base where he
made one of the two errors of
the game. Why the visiting ball
clubs scramble their line-ups
when they come to Boston is
not known to me. Ball fans of
Boston read the out of town
papers and box scores and are
quite hep to the changes. We
only hope they don't have Josh
Gibson pitching and satchel
Paige catching when and if
those two ball players visit our
town.
The game summary:
Fore River, 3 runs, 9 hits and
no errors.
Cuban Stars, no runs, 7 hits
and 2 errors.

1T occurs to me that one of
the greatest pitchers who ever
scraped his toe cleats on the
mound is Will Jackman, a man
whose color-like that of Sat-
chel Paige-prevented him from
becoming a baseball immortal"
So begins a grand tribute by
Jerry Mason in the July 10
morning edition of the BOS-
TON GLOBE in a page-length
column devoted exclusively to
Boston's famous battery-mate
of catcher Burlin White.
1t was the above story lead
that drew the fiery remarks
from a paleface friend whom
I've already quoted. 1t is in
deed a tragedy that Jackman-
and many other sepia stars
have bloomed and blosSomed
unseen land unknown by the
average major league baseball
fan. This tragedy must cease.
The Boston GLOBE, more
than any other local daily, is
now running articles on Colored
ball players that deserve thanks
and warm support. The reason
for these aticles must be obvi-
Gus.

Also included among the 15e
replies were letters from Con-

now 210. To this, Joe said:
THAT amt gonna help him.
Conn's not the kind of fighter
to carry that much weight. His
style is based on speed and he'll
lose that speed with extra
weight-and it won't help his
punch any"
Joe, now 220 pounds, looked in
perfect fighting trim when he
refereed 3 rounds of amateur
boxing with 10000 spectators.
Louis praised Bivins by remark
ing: Jimmy is a real good
fighter who doesn't always put
out all he's got. I've watched
him and I could see in spots
that he's got the stuff. He just
seems to pace himself we'll
