dated the right Of the Rev. L. l..
Scott to claim leadership Of Ne

Sen. Bilbo had praised Rev.
Scott as a Statesman above the

the minister announced his ac-

DIR. GILBERT declared in his
letter to Bilbo that Negroes do
not accept a man as a leader
among them simply because he
has the ok. Of someone outside

that II we are dealing with a Ne

Negro but are still dealing with

Gilbert said:
Africa is no more the father

Negroes than Of glo-Saxons.

DR.. Gilbert also refuted Bill

and also received alright support
Rightf1elder Bert Hill saved him
in the sixth by his sensational
running catch with the bases loaded
Hill also batted in q run in the
same frame, singing after Bill

Jim Bergen's Fort Myer team
mates gave him ragged support
committing five errors, and he fal.
tered in the fifth when three passe.
and a wild pitch accounted for two
of Andrews three markers. Dor
Chase connected three times in foul
trips to the plate for the victors.
Pitcher Bob Love and his brothe

triumph. Bob moved down the op
position with eight hits while Ra,

times at bat, but Catcher "Knocky

Jim Youel from now on because
the time Iowa ace is returning to
the Redskins in a deal sending
Guard AL Fiorentino to the Cleve-

Youel once belonged to the Tribe

Youel is a COB at Great Lakes

not be available before next season
at earliest, but the Redskins rate
him good enough to part with one
