Ramsey County VIEW. Will
Bar Bowling Tournament
Race Ban and Protest to ABC

Minnesota Veterans of For
eign Wars, have Joined the
ranks of those opposed TO
racial discrimination in sports.
Following an announcement
that a Bowling Tournament
would be held in st. Paul, April
20, Percy Green, Commander of
Twin Star Post, s752, presented a
resolution to the Ramsey County
Central Committee, inviting attsn-
ton to ABC regulations barring
Negro contestants, and requesting
some action be taken against tho
Caucasian clause.
The Veterans Committee de-
clared that there would be no racial
discrimination in a tournament
sponsored by the WV.
The resolution and action Of the
Ramsey County organization were
forwarded to national headquarters
where protests were made against
ABC racial attitude.
Howard Dannell, Director Of
Recreation for the VFW who is ar
ranging the coming tournament,
was very outspoken in his opinion
Of the ABC Caucasian race bar,
stating that the bar should be
dropped generally, and most GER
tainly would be in the case Of this
tournament.
Previously embarrassed by criti-
cism Of its stubbornness in remain
ing one of the last outposts Of
bigotry in sports, the matter Of the
dropping the Caucasian clause from
its bylaws is one Of the topics on
the agenda for discussion at the
next general meeting Of the or
ganization.
1t has previously been limited by
those in close contact with the ABC
that the present custom is 10 ig-
more the rule when protested by
influential groups. Now 1t Is
definitely stated that an all out
fight is going to be made for strik-
ing the race clause entirely.
Meanwhile veterans are girding
themselves for a new attack on the
"even after death" intolerance prae-
ticed in National cemeteries.
A resolution is to be presented
at the Memorial Day Association
meeting to be held next Friday at
Stem Hall, calling for a protest Of
the abuse of hero dead by submit
ting their bodies to Jim crow burial.
The resolution is to be presented
by Percy Green commander Of
Twin Star Post, WV, on behalf
Of the Veterans Of Foreign Wars.
A similar action Is expected FROM
Posts Of the American Legion fune-
tioning in st. Paul and Minneapolis.
In its present status, government
officials agreed to abolish racial
discrimination in burial after u
more persons are buried under the
cloud of prejudice, after August
l, l947.
