PART II

A drizzling rain was beating down outside James E. Coogan's s 4th floor office window in the Hall of Records. New Haven's we'll liked Park Recreation Dir. leaned back in his swivel chair conver- sationally and the talk wound around to baseball's oldItimers.
 Originally a New Havener, 52 years old, in sports or connect ed with recreational work prac- tically all his life, MT. Coogan re- calls easily most of the promin- ent Negro athletic stars in and around New England. Names like Pop Smith, dean of Negro base ball coaches in New Haven, Nom Harris, t'Canonball" Smith, whose name for years appeared in the line-ups of stellar Negro baseball clubs hereabouts.
 Pop Smith is a warm friend and great rooter for the genial Park Recreation Dept. director but for that matter so are all and sundry high or law among New Haven's Negro sports lovers. AL ways affable and admirably prac- tical, sincere, MT. Coogan has the knack of making his friend ship unaffectedly flattering to all indiscriminately.
 Buck Ewing, one of baseball's greatest receivers, is his favorite Negro star and received bookings from him often in the days when Buck" Ewing's travelling All Stars toured New England areas. Y" Buck used to catch 'em with one hand" says Coogan, land used a glove with hole in the center-with no protecting mate rial" Stars from Tuskegee, Hampton and many Southern Col legs have from time to time com peted in contests which he direct ed hereabouts and he is actually more familiar with many names of Negro athletes and coaches than are many of the race.

25 years older than the current crops of vets; they have different interests-where they can be shown to have any interests at all-and their veterans bodies, even at their primes, did no civic, social, economic or political good with any thing like the spectacu- lar ease with which they pitched drunken conventions in the major cities of the country. The new vet lives in a day when young people are doing things; it is an age in which they want their years of war service, their shat tered bodies and their broken bones, to mean something more than night in jail once a year for pulling up women's skirts in the public square. They will not get these benefits through the older organizations of veterans.
 Exceptions Are Few
 There are exceptions among the older veterans groups, of course. There are similar organizations which HAVE done things, and even chapters of the larger bodies which outrank their national bodies and do some things on their own hooks. These are

Even before the ship brought him back to these shores on his way to the demobiliZation center, the soldier who fought in the re- cent world war knew that he needed a strong, militant veterans organization to safeguard for him the hard-fought gains he had made in the four years of con- flict. What he probably did not know, though. was that if he eX- pected to do anything toward working out a future for himself as a veteran, he would have to shun like poison the existing vet erans' organizations, and would have to make a very careful choice of the many new ones before re- linquishing himself and it's mem- bership to one.
 It's A New Vets Age
 In the year that has passed since VI Day, it has been made clearer and clearer that the vet eran of this world war has noth- ing whatever to gain from any organization formed and domin- ated by the veterans of the other world war. The vets of the earlier unnecessary world holocaust are
