The Washington Post, carried the
following double column announce
ment on its sports pages:
For two years, the Washington
Post has sponsored the District of
Columbia amateur boxing cham
pionship tournament known as the
Battle of Belts. There have been re-
peated requests that entries of COL
ored amateurs be accepted for the
tournament.
THE District of Columbia ANA
teur Athletic union has consistently
refused to permit colored boys to
compete. 1t has maintained that po-
sition arbitrarily despite the fact
that the National AAU, of which it
is a member, has set forth that all
amateur athletes are eligible for
competition without regard to race
or color.
Bouts between colored and white
fighters in the professional ring are
sanctioned by the District Boxing
commission, and have been without
so-called incidents. The District
AAU, however, chooses to bar COL
ored amateur championships be-
cause of what it chooses to call it's
duty to 'Washington's social phi
losophy.'
''The Washington Post also finds
itself with choice. In the interest
of tolerance, it chooses to with
draw from the sponsorship of the
AAU boxing tournament, and here
