THE PASSING OF THE LATE

To the Editor of the Guardian:
Men and women of color in
Greater Boston, New England,

and breadth of this fair land,
have, in the passing of Richard
Grozier, late Editor of the Boston
Post, lost a good friend.
We love to think of one of the
policies of his paper which more
than demonstrated his fairmind-
edness.
1t was the late VIM. NJ. Trotter,
who, as editor of THE GUARD
IAN, requested Mr.. Grozier to
prohibit use of the word "Negro"
in the Post. Mr.. Trotter convinced
For from the East straight t,

Where naught is known

him that the word colorsd, as It
relates to racial incidents was more
sensible and acceptable. Since that
day, this highly Objectionable
word, "Negro" which intelligently
cannot be applied to the race as
a whole, has disappeared from
the pages of the Post. This dem
onstration of goodwill must be
credited to Mr.. Grozier, for, by
one stroke of his pen, it could
have reappeared.
Few of us have met this kindly
man. However, we have felt the
pulsation of his life through his
willingness to understand. OF
necessity, his mantle will fall
upon the shoulders of another.
May that person be inspired by

MYSTERY-CL0THED
 SOVIET TRACkMEN
 AT OSLO MEETING

LONDON, Aug. 20-A 35-man Russian track team, clothed in mystery, and purported to have broken world records, makes it's western debut this week in the European Amateur Championships as Oslo, Norway
 Not since 1923 have the Cossacks of the cinder lanes competed against the outside world And they are expected to spring some sur prises against the 20 other Europ- can nations entered in the biggest sports carnival since the last of the quadrennial meets in 1888.
 The mere presence of the Soviet team speaks for quality, since the Kremlin has a reputation for eX- porting only sure shots. The Soviet soccer football team overwhelmed British opposition last year and the Russian chess players have made several successful moves about Eu- rope.
 The four-day track and field meet, opening Thursday, will be watched closely as previeW to the l948 Olympic Games in London.

 Salmon generally sells at a much higher price than halibut, but the latter fish now brings six cent a pound more than troll-caught sal mon" Dando said.
