during the war years, and that
one of the necessities is food, and
if the Negro grocers are to sup
ply their portion of that demand
it must be done through cooper
alton rather than individuals.
During the years of horror on
foreign fronts which every phase
was felt on American shores, a
new people have appeared on
the face of the earth, and new
methods must be Incorporated
If we are going to be able to sur
vive is to organize and do things
together instead of trying to
fight Individually" Concluded
Mr.. Barnes.

himself in the efforts to organize
the grocers, as having knowledge
of many Negroes who are on the
city's who is who" list that will
walk by Negroes grocery
every day in the week to have
their purchases handed to them
by white hands still there are
many Negroes who are associated
with the common man" who
will walk by white grocers to
patronize their color. "These are
the people spoke Mr.. Barnes
who practice race cooperation
instead of talking it," And these
are the people Mr. Barnes is
pleading to the grocers to or
ganize that they will be able to
give these people the same stan
dard Of groceries that can be
found in any other store at the
same prices, if not better prices.

LightWeighted at 116 pounds

swept into the lead at the quarter
pole of the mile and one-eighth
race, shook off a sharp challenge by
Buzfuz a quarter mile from home
and went on to win in 1:483s.
Jockey Joe Renick, 35-year-old
veteran of the turf wars, piloted
Concordian as the chestnut gelding

Pilot Plans, as Mats Check in at Comp
By Burton Hawkins
Stor Sfoff Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla, Feb. 16.-Previ-
ously announced plans OF installing
Rookie Gil Coan as the Mats regular
center fielder were discarded today
by Manager Os Bluege, who also is
returning Buddy Lewis to right field
and abandoning the idea that Lewis
would be Washington's 1916 third
baseman.
"Our outfield will consist OF jeff
Heath in left, Stan Spence in center
and Lewis in right" Bluege said as
he greeted batterymen struggling
into this lake-studded citrus center
for the launching of Washington's
spring training activities on Monday.
IF Coan is exceptional enough to
make me bench Heath, Spence or
Lewis, that will be all right with me,
but those fellows are established
major leaguers and until I'm shown
otherwise they rate the edge"
Coan Rated Best Minor Grad.
Coan, a .372 swatter with Chatta-
nooga last season and who was voted
the outstanding player in the minors,
comes to the Mats with one of the
rosiest regulations ever to precede
a rookie into Washington training
camp. He led the Southern Associ-
alton in batting, betting home runs,
doubles and triples. He was on top
in base stealing, total hits, total
bases and, in fact, paced that league
in virtually every vital department.
"Coan will get every opportunity
to make the grade" continued Os.
Every job on this club is wide open,
but if / had to name an outfleld
right now I'd have to go along with
Heath, Spence and Lewis. I'm de-
pending on Coan and George Binks
to make it hot for them. Binks
gave us a grand job last year and
he'll help us this season.
Lewis is a good outfielder and he
is not an outstanding third base
man. I'm afraid that if place him
at third base he'd fret too much
about making the grade there and
it might affect his hitting Right
field is his spot
Robertson Highly Rated.
"At the moment I'm figuring on
Sherry Robertson as my third base
man. Dozens of people who were
stationed in the Hawaiian Islands
with him volunteer the informa-
ton that he is the most improved
player to return from the service
Cecil Travis will be at shortstol

With one Of the best displays of
shooting and floor play witnessed

man Don Durkin led an underdog
Catholic University quint to a stun
ming 40-to-32 upset victory over
Western Maryland last night in the
Brookland gym.
Durkin contributed 10 of the Car

dribbling down the middle of the
floor.
1t was only the Cards second tri-
umph in II games to date.
After being outplayed in the early
minutes of the game the Terrors
took the play away from their
smaller, younger foes and finished
with a 22-l8 lead at the end of the
half. During this period the lead
changed hands five times. The
score was tied as many times.
Western Maryland increased the
lead to 1922 early in the second
half, but with 13 minutes left the
Cards came to life. Chuck Dudley,
Durkin and Fred McGrane cut it
to 1927 and then, after Thompson
Of the visitors rang up four con-
secutive points the C. U. five made
