lust About WASHINGTON
By Hope Ridinss Miller

Congress certainly has its share
Of feminine Douglases these days.
Three out of 10 to be exact. With
the advent of Georgia's new Repre-
sentative Helen Douglas Mankin, a
Democratic trio of women, all hav-
ing the same name, either middle
or last, swing into action. All are
married, and all are mothers. One
was born a Douglas: the other two
acquired the name with their we'd
ding rings. How nice, having an
other Douglas on our side of the
House." said Representative Helen
Gahagan Douglas when she well
coined Mrs Mankin to Washington
Representative Emily Taft Douglas,
also on hand to greet her, observed
that the new addition would even
things up. We now have as many
Democrats as Republicans among
the women in the House"
A glimpse into the future indi-
Gates, however, that unless a num-
ber of feminine candidates are grid
ing themselves for campaigns in the
near future, the House of Repre-
sentatives will have several ladies
less, next year. Representative Glare
Booth Luce has announced she won't
run again for the Office she now
holds. tRumor has her entering the
ace for Senate seat, but she de-
clines to confirm that Representa-
tive Helen Gahagan Douglas is toy
ing with the idea of heading for
the Senate. If she does, you'll have
to hand it to her for courage. She'll
have to battle quite a powerful field
of opponents, among them Will
Rogers, jr.
Meanwhile, however. Represent
aVges Margaret Smith, Frances
Bolton, Edith Nourse Rogers, Chase
Going Woodhouse and Emily Taft
Douglas are quietly planning return

AN EDITORIAL

Orchids to Bob Teller, who heads team of all-star players from the major baseball leagues, now on a transforming tour. and meeting
 players from the coIored top leagues. Thanks to his forward
 looking effort, Teller, greatest of the current white league pitchers, was able to give five thousand Pittsburgh fans the thrill of seeing him pitch a three-inning 1-1 tie against Satchel Paige, greatest of the Negro pitchers and probably equal of any hurler in the business.
 A fragrant bouquet of garlic to the maj0r-league owners and man. agers who persistently refuse to employ colored players. These men fooled nobody with their stalling over the past several years, fore ing the millions of baseball fans to go through the war on half ratlons' on the diamond as they felded inexperienced CT worn-out players rather than use the excel. lent Negro material available and thus keep the game up to the box office prices. Teller has shown them the way; Paige, Jackie Robinson and others have shown them the available material The odds are ten-to-one, taking all corners, that they STILL will not do away with the silliest discrimination ever
 known in the field of so-calIed sport. (MR)

team of stars against the all-star team of the renowned Charlie Dresser. Dresser will be remem- 'bered as one of the great man. agers of all time in the majors, piloting a N. L. farm club, Nash vile, before graduate work in Cian- cinnati and St. Louis.
 The second meeting of the races in baseball uniform will be staged at Chicago (and, later, in other cities) when Bob Teller, who this week passed the all-time strikeout record, puts a team of white all- stars on the field against a team of colored stars led by Satchel Paige. (This game will have been played by the time this is printed).
 The clash between Satchel and Bob is expected to be one of the outstanding meetings of pitchers in the history of baseball. Behind the moundsmen will be, on Eel ler's team, will foe: Frankie Hayes, catcher, White Sox; Rollie Hem sley, catcher, Philadelphia; Spud Chandler, Yankees; Buck Newsom, Washington; Bob Lennon, Cleve- land and Freddie Hutchinson, De- troit, all of the last four pitchers. On first will be Mickey Vernon of Washington; John Bernardino, sec- ond; Ken Keltner of the Indians, third and Phil Rizutto, shortstop. Charlie Keller of the Yankees, Sam Chapman of Philadelphia, and Jeff Heath of the Indians will complete the team.

Servo Is Still
 Weller Clal1ll,

CLEVELAND, Oct. 1 = Marty Servo, despite the fact that his hardest ring fights recently have been those he waged in getting away from a meeting with Sugar Ray Robinson, is still welterweight champion, the National Boxing Association ruled here last week.
 There's a catch in it. however; Marty will have to meet Ray for the belt on Dec. 1st. If Ray doesn't choose to fight Servo by that time Che's been dying to meet him) then Servo must meet who ever is decided to be the logical contender of the moment.
 The action of the NBA does not follow that of the New York Box ing Commission (regarded as The Works by many fighters). The NY group simply vacated the title and threw Servo the heck out re- gently in New York after the fail ure of another of the Servo-Robin- son bouts to materialize.

 Greetings, everyone! The CWBL opened their 9th season last Sat urday night as promised. Sixteen teams lined up at the Hutington Club Alleys and at 6 o'clock the balls started rolling.
 First, a word to all you folks who are interested in our girls but who are not familiar with the game. It is an indoor sport for folks of all ages and from all walks of life. A good score in candle pins, while more or less a matter of opinion, for man or wo- man is 100 and most of us women are forced many times to settle for less. A dummy score in our particular league is 65 which is used when no one else can be had to fill out a team (consisting ot five members each) due to the ab- sence of a member, because it is seldom that. a member isn't able to do better. There are points that can be won by any team ir any one game, one for each string and one for the total pinfall.
 The mighty VOWS have done it again. The poor Cyclones battle as they would didn't have a chance to even take one point for them selves. The first strike of the even- ing was made by the Vows new member, Tene Ashby, in her first string.
 The captain of our leading Tues day night league of last year and my esteemed assistant, Ruth Da- wis, brought home the first spare of the season, as if that wasn't enough, she followed it up with another spare and strike for a no string, putting her team in second place for the high three. The good old Flashes, not to be outdone, got the second high sin gle and are in third place for high three. The first double spares of the evening were made in the first string by the new member of the Ravens, Irna Watson, the girl is prospect. Although the Arrows won their 4 points from the An chors, they did not raise any par ticular cain but you Vows, Eag- lettes, and Flashes, all watch out when they do get startedI They also have new member who isn't exactly standing still.
 Featuring a WOW
 FOLKS, THIS IS WHAT PRAC- TICE WILL DO FOR YOU! The alleys were filled with noise when Harriet Johnson, anchor girl for the Vows who has been practic- ing all summer made 89-112- 117, total of SIS, setting a new high average of 1O6. Our last years leader, Bea Wiggins came through with ali average of 97.3, but we're sorry, Bea, that isn't enough.

NA&O5AOAAS AtAS~0se 0P~~A< This week marks the opening of the Boston Park Department Football Leagues. In the City League, the Panthers A will play the Moakley Club at tSavin Hill Playground. Here, one can have the opportunity of seeing Freddy Bear" Donelan and Buddy Howell turn on the heat and really play some ball. Last Sunday at the scrimmage game between the Ea- gIes A and the Panthers, those lads really showed their gridiron prowess.
 In the Hub Conference League the Panther Cubs (Redskins) will play the Hill Top AC at American Legion Field. This should be a great game. Also in the Hub Con- ference, the Eagles A will play the Volunteers from Roxbury at Ratch Field. For direction to any of the above playgrounds, see the managers of one of the clubs at Columbus Park on Sunday morn ing. All three games start at ZOO pm.
 **#*#*****#
 For all you who are not inter- ested enough to go with one of these teams, there will be two games played at Columbus Park St. Augustine vs St. Monica and St. Peter vs St. John.
 #***#####**
 Last Sunday the Partners A beat the Eagles A in a scrim- mage session by Ia score of 6-O' In the later period of the game, John Pope (P) unexpectedly scored leaving the Eagles slightly bewil- dered. Nevertheless, the Eagle schoolboys gave the Panthers some very stiff competition. Billy Raynor, Clyde Crawford and Dave Neville made a very fine showing. The Eagle coaching staff claimed that they were not very satisfied with the defense strategy of the Eagles, and they plan to have ex- tensive drill on their defense be- fore their first game.
 ####*###R#H
 Link Queeley managed to get his hands on the ball Sunday, while it was very much alive and he made a most beautiful run down the field. Billy Daughtry completed a possible touchdown pass, which was called back by the referee.
 Time and time again the Eagles were all set to hit the goal lines, but those Panther lads were too much on the alert. But, of course, when I call them "lads", that is putting it mildly.

Sporting Around
(Boston, Mass, SpeciaD

Let's give to Fats Johnson anc his Boston Colored Giants we'll deserved hand for what they have accomplished in bringing our com. munity a real great baseball team The Giants have won their City Twilight League with ease, and not one of their opposing teams gave them any competition. This feat was due to the remarkable pitching of Pop Jackman, who has ia record of winning 25 games with out a single defeat.
 Jackman is rated one of the best pitchers in the East by some of the best balEparks in the East, and has travelled as far as Philadelphia and Canada.
 The Giants are closing their sea- son and are looking forward to next year when they hope to have another successful season. We should like to see one of our Bos- ton big league teams give. some of our boys tryouts, as the Brook lyn Dodgers have done. Anyhow it would be nice to witness it happen here.

New Haven, Oct. 1 - That big noise heard out near the Yale cam pus wasn't a repetition of VI Day; it was the local ovation being giv- en to one of the most sensational things that has happened to Yale in a gridiron way since the days of Albie Booth - 20-year-old, col ored, Levi Jackson.
 Jackson, in violation of nearly all tradition, is a Freshman who has already earned the spurs usually garnered by the other greats in their last, perhaps post last years. Turning in a finished performance last Saturday, the Ebony Express crashed across with two touchdowns to set the pace by which his open-mouthed mates walloped Kings Point by a 33-zero score.
 During the first minutes of the first quarter it was feared that an injury might take Jackson out of the lineup. He came back in the second quarter, however, and al most immediately made brilliant 60-yard run toward the markers. In later run the fans got an idea of the real speed behind Jackson's running when he out raced the holder of 44O meter track cham pionship.

Sc[lelners Lose In Final Stanza
(Boston, Mass, SpecialD

Before a crowd of 700 to 800 spectators Sunday, September 29, on Boston Common, the Schemers Softball team had the strong Feds, City Champs, on the ropes with their late inning rallies. The Feds pulled the game through in the last chapter as Meehan the short stop doubled with 2 outs and then O'Connell singled to bring in the winning run and 7 to 6 victory.
 Both teams are post office teams and had eliminated all the other teams entered in the Boston Invi- tational Softball Tournament. The 1st inning the Feds got 4 singles, a double and a triple and by the third inning they had a 6 to 0 lead. In the fourth stanza, with the Schemers at bat and Moore and Welles on base, Andy Newton smashed a homer down the right field foul line. Fellow workers and families cheered as the underdogs finally tied the score 6 to 6 on a double by Lou Isaacs. In the 9th frame with 2 outs the lSchemers had the bases loaded as Andy Wells, star pitcher, was robbed of a hit as Herby Nelson, fashy .2nd baseman made a sensational catch Again in the 7th inning the Sche- mers failed to score with men on second and third.
