many owners 10 show profit on
what was previously an expensive
hobby.
Although hoping with the run
ming horse followers that Judge
Miller's decision will be reversed
in The supreme court. the trot-
ting horse crowd is looking ahead,
planning that if il comes to the
worst and the Judge is upheld
they will carry the question TO the
people on a referendum.
In II should be necessary 10
carry the horse racing question
TO q vote, the trotting horse
people plan to link forces with
the running horse crowd
The trotting crowd believes IL
can build up strong organi-
zatton outstate, and let the
others try to swing the vote In
the city.
One OF the most powerful argu-
ments for horse racing and one
which should have an appeal out
state, is that the sport is pain
less form OF taxation q, . the 81
100000 or more 1t can produce
each year might come in very
handy in a postwar depression.
Since the citizens Of Detroit
pour most OF this money into the
state treasury. the outstate resi-
dents shouldn't object -. It's
only at the Detroit track that the
state takes a percentage OF the
pari-mutuel handle The trot-
ting tracks pay only $50 a day.
Incidentally the Worthwhile
track officials, who had planned
10 open May IL. have become
desperate because of the fall
ure OF the winning attorneys In
the race track injunction case
TO bring I'm the decree to be
signed by Judge Miller.
Since Mi1ler's decision ism
binding until he signs the decree,
Worthwhile Downs. Inc. has con
sidered opening the track and run
ming until the decree is signed .
They figure Judge Miller would
either get the decree signed IN a
hurry. or they could keep running
and make a couple of dollars ir
feed money for the trottine
horses which have filed every
stable at Worthwhile for sepera
months.

Byrd Sights
Split Match
But Rutan, Harmon
Give Nelson Edge
By NJ. F. DRUKENBROD

It's going TO be tough match:
That's how three Detroit eot
pros who made the winter tour
with Byron Nelson and Sam Snead
view this pairs clash Of the COM
ing weekend.
Nelson and Snead will meet at
SO holes medal play next Satur-
day at Fresh Meadow on Long
Island, then at Essex in New Jer-
sey at SO holes match play the
following day.
Sam Byrd of Plum Hollow, who
consistently finished closest to
them on the tour, thinks il will
be a draw. Nelson is his choice
at medal play. Snead at match.
DIFFERS FROM EXPERTS
Most experts view 1t the other
way, saying that If Snead IS to
win II will have to be at medal
play. But Byrd refuses 10 be in
fiuenced by them.
Both Claude Harmon Of Loeb
moor and Chick Rutan Of Bir-
mingham pick Nelson to win and
don't bother TO draw any lines
between the two styles OF play.
They figure it will be so close,
though. il can be rated a tosSlp
almost, but not quite.
Nelson and Snead are the
finest hitters of the ball we
have today" Byrd says, "and IL
Il conceivable the result of both
halves OF the match can hinge
on the last putt.
HOW 1T WORKS
T'm giving Snead his big
chance In match play because
he can have one of those lapses
and suffer no more than the loss
of a hole. But In medal play,
strokes thus lost are gone for
ever; especially against Nelson,
the steadiest player In the game
| today"
"The more tightly trapped
/ northern courses put premium
on accuracy, and Nelson is Old
Man Accuracy himself" Har-
mon says in explaining why he
leans toward the Toledoan.
Courses like Fresh Meadow de

Snead will have the adyantaR,
there, Harmon wants IL known tina

MRS, BETHUNE ON 10th
BIRTHDAY LOOKS TO FUTURE

WASHINGTON, July II (ANP)
The future presents a "great

Mcleod Bethune on the occasion of
her 10th birthday. To-day, | begin

Look fit, spirited and none the
worse for the hardships she has en-
countered in life of service, Mrs.
Bethune received the plaudits of
her friends, admirers, and co-work-
ers at a gala party given in her
honor at the Howard theater that
night. She heard Secretary of Com
merce Henry Wallace, speaking for
the Truman Administration, speak

She heard messages of congratu-

the Charioteers stimulated her
heart when they sang "Let Me Call

DR.. ALLISON DAVIS Says
NEGROES SEEK full
ACCEPTANCE IN HUMANE SOC.

NASHVILLE, July II (ANP)-
In a discussion on Racial Status
and Personality, DR.. Allison Da-
Wis, assistant professor of education
at the University of Chicago, the
only Negro on the faculty there this
year, gave the Institute of Race Re-
lations being held at Fisk this
month an analysis of the Negroes
reaction to the American racial
system of caste.
He pointed out that 'it is true
that psychologically, Negroes are
trying to be white" but said that
"these efforts are merely an indi-
cation of the desire to be accepted
fully in human society as white in
dividuals are accepted. This is not
an effort either to have white skins
or to be accepted socially as whites,
but psychological drive for ac-
ceptance as a human being"
In related discussion, DR.. M. F.
Ashley Montagu, anthropologist
from Harvard University, told the
group that ''the physical and cul-
tural differences which exist be-
tween groups have been used to set
those groups against one another in
America and to divert public atten-
ton from the real sources of evil" 4"
DR.. Montagu said that racial
prejudice is socially-learned and So
cially-sanctioned, and that it is a
convenient tool for political and
economic exploitation of the masses
of both the Negro and white popu-
lation.
In a series of lectures on the
psychiatric aspect of race relations,
DR.. Helen Mclean, psychiatrist for
the Illinois Institute for Psychon-
analysis, said that racial conflict in
America is due to unconscious fears
of both Negroes and whites living
under the stress of racial prejudice.
