The fans appreciate his considera-
ton, though some swear that folks
at home in Memphis can follow a
Johnson-umped game in Atlanta
simply by raising the window.
OFF the diamond Johnson keeps
his voice in shape by aiming multi
syllabled words at his friends.
Often he is not particular about
how the meaning fits the conversa-
ton. johnson was 50 proud of his
behavior during one melee on the
field that he admitted to Red
Jones. his umpiring partner, that
his performance was nothing short
of sheer, saponified courage"
Come Again?
RED didn't know exactly what
"saponified courage" might be,
decided to check up. He found
that "saponifed" means CON
verted to soap; SOFT slippery,
soapy." Jones will never let Steam
boat forget that one. "How's the
guy with the saponifed courage?"
he howls. That doesn't bother the
Steamer he figures Red just
can't appreciate the musical quail
ity of words.
johnson started umpiring in the
Ohio-Penn League in the days
when there was only one official
to a game. WED call balls and
strikes from behind the catcher

Steamboat landed in the South

me an hour and a half to get to my
room, sneaking through alleys
while the mob patrolled the main
street."
But in spite of his pugnacity,
most players admit he's a top
notch umpire. He's a showboat
as we'll as a steamboat" says
Fresco Thompson, former New
Orleans manager. ''But umpires
don't come any better. He's
firm in his decisions and his
eyesight is perfect"
That eyesight is a matter of
special pride with Steamboat.
Each spring he visits registered
optometrist. Armed with a state
ment that his vision is right on the
2O-2O beam, he rushes to notary,
has the document officially sworn
to. He carries it with him every
where, fishing it out of his pocket

BaSebau'S 8 most cOIOrful
umpire is a 6O-year-old
gent who's been ducking
pop bottles for 81 years
"ARRY SAMUEL JOHNSON esti-
Ill mates that 5000 bottles have
been thrown in his direction in the
past 81 years. But they don't
worry him too much. He considers
each one a left-handed compli-
ment and boasts that only rs have
connected with his person.
For 60-year-old Harry Samuel,
better known as Steamboat, is a
baseball umpire, one of the Oldest
in service and probably the most
colorful in the country.
He got the nickname because
his voice sounds like the Robert E.
Lee coming round the bend. And
he's such a pugnacious, super
confident arbiter that he's become
an institution in the Southern
Association. Fans come to see him
as much as to see the ball game.
Bull's-eye
HE's been involved in more
baseball brawls than he can count,
but one he'll never forget hap
pened back in 1915. Steamboat
called a decision against the Troy
team of the New York State
League and an enraged bleacherite

caught johnson over his right eye.
The local fans hooted and whistled
at him. But they couldn't shout
the Steamboat down. Between
swabs at the deep cash in his fore
head he vigorously thumbed five
Troy players off the field, got the
game under way again.
Il had hard time getting back
to the hotel after the game" he
recalls. The crowd was after

geant said that he paid only twelve
dollars for it in the United States,
and that it was old and didn't keep

the watches he wanted in the Ameri-

that?" I said. "In return for the

incriminated himself.
"DDN'T he ask you questions about

Eyes, he did ask questions. He

Russia, and sometimes he believed

Eminent Negro
Scientist

Washington, ID. G. - The late
DR.. Ernest Everett Just, Internal
ionally known scientiest and head
of the Department of Zoology at
Howard University for twenty-six
years, was highly respected for
his researches in the biology of
the cell by his associates in Fran
ce. This fact was revealed to Pre-
sident Mordecai w. Johnson, of
Howard University, last week
when he received copy of La
Pensee, French Journal, which con
tanned an article entitled ernest
Everett JUST written by DR.. RI
oul-Michel May, of the Science
faculty, University of Paris.
The complete text of DIR. Mays
article is as follows:
It is only recently that, with
great sorrow, we have received
confirmation of the death of our
friend, Professor Ernest Everett
Just. The most distinguished col
ored biologist died prematurely on
October 27, 1941, at the age of
fifty-eight. Diven from Paris by
the Maize invasion. he had return
ed to the United States, but re-
luctantly, for he had found in
France spiritual climate much
to his liking, and had established
firm friendship there.
What poignant drama this, of
man who had achieved renown
through his research in cytolegy,
who, springing from the most un-
favorable Origins in his country,
succeeded by his work in rising
to the level of great scientists,
but without ever succeeding in
breaking the barrier of racial pre-
judice-

logy of the cell, which he expert
mented with over a period of yrs.
in an effort to exploit the riddle
of life. He won an international
reputation for his research work
in laboratories in Italy, France
and Germany, where he remained
for eight years.
For distinction gained IN con-
nection with studies on the origin
of life, he was awarded the Sping-
anr Medal in 1915. For twenty yrs.
he spent his summers in research
at the Marine Biological Labora-
tory, Woods Hole, Mass.
NOTED AUTHOR
More than fifty scholarly pap
ers have been published based up
on his researches, and he proved
himself to be an effective writer
in his books General Cytology"
and Jerome Alexanders Colloid
Chemistry" published in 1884 and
1928 respectively.
Together With several well-known
scientists, in 1924 he published
an outstanding treaties on systo-
logy. Later he was chosen by the
leading biologists Of Germany as
the best fitted among the worlds
scholars to write a treatise on
fertilization. He was also one of
the editors of the international
journal, protoplasma, and of the
official organ of the Marine BiOlo-
gical Society.
AT HOWARD "a YRS
DR.. Just was a member of the
staff at Howard University for
81 years. He received his Phi. d.
degree from the University of Chi
cago in 1916.
The professor was vice-president
of the American Society of Zoolo-
gists, 1930-31, and at his death,
~as a member of the following
national and International learned
societies:
American Association of Zoolo-
