ON PRIMO CARNERA

MILAN, Italy, Nov. 22.-(R-
Primo Camera, one-time world
heavyweight boxing champion,
said today hat spectator forced
him at pistol point to enter the
ring for a losing comeback bout
With Luigi Musina last night.
In an interview with the Asso.
clated Press, the 264-pound Car
nera blamed his seven-round tech
meal Knockout on upset nerves
and demanded return bout.
Il had undressed and dressed
three times for the bout when
finally it was announced that the
match had been called off be-
cause OF the behavior of the
crowd" Camera explained. land
after the second announcement of
the postponement 1 was convinced
that the fight would not be held.
Il had become chilled in the
dressing room and drank a glass
OF cognac to warm me up and it
iut lie III the legs. l also smoked
a cigarette.
Then a spectator threatened
me with a pistol, saying L want
satisfaction if the match is not
held
I entered the ring very cold
and very nervous" Camera con-
tlnued land surely hope Musina
will give me return bout under
better conditions. l was in good
shape last night but a fight under
those conditions is foolish and ter
rible.''
After last nights bout the ref
cree said the match ended as
had been foreseen.' He said
Camera slumped to the mat two
times in the first round and that
IN the seventh he stopped the
light because of "Carnera's OBJ
vious inferiority.''

An effort was made in some

express surprise that Joe DiMag-

rangy centerfielder had done some
energetic holding out on numerous
occasions. AS a matter of fact the
only surprise would have been if
he didn't sign promptly. The club
was required to pay him at least
the salary he was receiving when
he went into the service. He could

CUlLF0RD, 33T0 0

GREENSBORO, Nov. 22-Pc
William Greene, one of the ma
tons leading gridiron scorers, ran
his total to "a points for the season
with two touchdowns as Catawba' S
prize eleven defeated Guilford here
this afternoon in Thanksgiving
day contest. 80 to o.
Handicapped by muddy field
and a hot defensive Quaker team
which has steadily improved under
Doc Newton's tutelage, Catawaba
was unable to roll up the high score
which every one expected.
High-flying Charlie Gabriel was
also slowed down by leg injury,
but this did not interfere with his
stellar passing, as demonstrated
by his 13-yard throw to Harlem
Gudger for the third score and
numerous other successful aerial
thrusts, not to mention his plunge
through center late in the last
period for his single tally.
The Indians scored in each
period making one touchdown in
the first, third and last quarters,
and two in the second.
The first score came on a 20
yard pass from Jack Ward to Carroll
Bowen. The second quarters two
touchdowns were made on five
yard plung by Vjene and 10 yard
pass from Gabriel to Gudger. The
Indians added another score in
the third period on two yard
smash by Fullback Greene. The
last tally came on five yard buck
by the busy Gabriel.

81 Yard Drive In
Eight Plays

Marching to touchdown on
eight plays covering 90 yards the
first time they got the ball, the
New Hanover High school Wild
cats closed their football season
last night by defeating an over
rated Winston-Salem Bowman
Gray squad, 81 to -, at American
Legion stadium.
The visitors were handicapped
by the absence of their two start
ing tackles, Atkinson and Ander-
son, both flu victims, but it, is
doubtful whether the two huskies
would have helped, for the local
team seemed able to gain at will
both on the ground and, through
the air.
The touchdown parade saw four
players score for the Wildcats.
Touchdown plays included the fol-
lowing:
After a tumble on the opening
kickoff had set the Wildcats back
to their own eight yard stripe the
New Hanover team put on their
most impressive show of power Of
the evening and for that matter
of the season. A Sykes to Gibson
pass was good for 48 yards after
Sykes and Bannerman had chug-
ged to the 30 yard marker. Ban
herman picked up five yards and
then Sykes turned the Greyhound
flank for IS yards and the score.
The Winstno-Salem team bounc-
ed back into the game when the
visitors main offensive threat, big
]. R. Jones threw a long, lazy
pass to End Masten for SO yard
touchdown play. When Jones kick
ed the point after touchdown the
score stood at z to 6 in favor OF
the visitors.
In the second quarter the Wild
cats bounced back into the lead.
Don Hyatt, Wilmington center in
tercepted a pass on the Winston
Salem As and carried it to the 80.
A Bannerman power play carried
down to the 10 from where Jimmy
Piner on a quarterback sneak out
smarted the Winston-Salem for
wards by. cutting down the side
lines for the score. Sykes convert
ed to make it 10 to at the end
of the second period.
On the fifth play of the second
half Sykes connected on II pass
to Kenneth Rogers. The lanky
halfback caught the pass on the
midfield stripe and jaunted the
rest of the way for another touch
down. The conversion was missed
and the score stood at 10 to z.
A Winston-Salem tumble led to
the next local touchdown. The
Wildcats recovered on the Gray
High 40 yard marker. Johnny
Symmes dashed to the Greyhound
-. After a loss of two yards,
Stymmes cut past the Greyhound
right end to score. The conversion
was not made. Score: Wildcats
Is, Grayhounds Z.
An unnecessary roughness
penalty on the Wildcats placed the
Grayhounds on the local one yard
line climaxing a long Winston
Salem drive covering II yards.
Jones bucked over for the final
Gray High touchdown. Their con-
version was blocked. Wildcats Is

BRITAIN BARS SOUTH
AFRICANS FROM LONDON AND
OTHER LARGE CITIES

LONDON, July 16 (ANP).-
This city is '''out of bounds" to ma
tive South African ex-prisoners of
war who are in Britain awaiting
return to their native land.
That revelation was made by a
young South African who came
here to visit Africa House to thank
the Red Cross for the good care
they had taken of prisoners for
merly held in Nazi prisons.
The ruling thaat colored South
Africans may not visit any large
town was laid down by the South
African government, declared an
official of Africa House. Despite
complaints, the order has been en-
forced in Italy and North Africa
as well as in Britain, he added.

formed me that black South Afri-
can ex-prisoners of war are not al
lowed to visit London.
"He handed me over to his SER
geant, who also informed me that
he and other S. A. military police
have orders to arrest any of us
(ex-P.W.W.'s) they meet in Lon
don.
"When I produced letter from
the chairman of the South African
Red Cross inviting me to call to see
him when | came to London on
leave, he escorted me to the Red
Cross office.
"There l was welcomed by a lady
on behalf of the society, who said
she was very pleased to see me.

only benefits from them. There is

CLARIFIES LABOR POLICY
WITH WAR PRISONERS

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July III
(ANP)-The army says that pris-
oner of war labor will not upset
the Negroes economy in the south.
Answering an East Tennessee
News editorial, 1t. Col. Harold A.
Tyler, public relations officer of
the army service forces, Atlanta,
states that there should be no con-
Germ over prisoners of war displac-
ing civilian workers at wage rates
of 80 cents day. Tyler's letter
said:
"The 80 cents day in canteen
checks mentioned in the editorial
is what the prisoner of war receives
for his work. But this is important:
the person or firm employing pris-
oners of war must pay the United
States Treasury the same sum that
he would have to pay civilian labor.
If the prevailing wage rate for the
type of work being performed
should happen to be 80 cents an
hour, the cost to the employer
would be $6.40 per day, or the same
amount he would have to pay any
civilian workers. The difference be-
tween 80 cents and $6.40 goes into
the treasury. Thus you can readily
see that prisoner of war labor does
not attract employers as a matter
of economy on wages.
"Then PWs are available only in
labor shortage areas where civil
ians simply cannot be found to do
the work. This determination is
made by federal agencies independ-
ent of the army. 1t is on their GER
tification of acute need that PWs
are made available. This is to safe
guard against the very situation
discussed in the editorial to prevent
any prisoner of war taking a job
which a civilian can handle and is
available to take.

6-p0INT PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, July IL (ANP)
An intensive nationwide cam
paign around six major legislative
issues, including an appropriation
for the FEPC and it's permanent
establishment, has been mapped by
the CIO-Political Action committee
President Philip Murray of the
CLIO announced following meet
ing of the Committee.
The committee recognizes that
while the overwhelming victory
won by the democratic forces in the

a serious setback for the forces of
reaction, those forces have not been
routed, Murray said.
The major tasks as set forth,
apart from the FEPC objective,
are:
l. The revision of national wage
policy to permit generous wage ad-
justments to meet increased living
costs and to maintain the purchas-
ing power Of the working people in
the reconversion period.
2. Amendment of the Fair Labor
Standards act to provide an i'm
mediate minimum wage of Csc an
hour to increase the purchasing
power of the millions of workers
now suffering from substandard
wages.
3. Enactment of legislation pro-
viding supplementary federal un-
employment compensation benefits
and extending unemployment COM
pensation protection to groups such
as federal and maritime workers
who are not now covered at all.
4. Enactment of the Murray
