catcher's mitt to handle. He
doesn't have the variety of mo-
tions Baugh does, but he hits the
target, which is the important
thing.
Gilmer likes to throw to lanky
Bones Taylor, who can reach up
in the clouds and drag down
passes as easily as a scientist
trapping butterflies.
Hes got the knack of reaching
for the ball at just the right
time" Gilmer said. 80 many
receivers put up their hands too
soon, breaking stride and losing
ground. They'll miss leading
pass every time. But Taylor runs
hard, waits until the ball is just
over his head, then grabs it. He's
a good receiver"
Gilmer, too, likes the way Bob
Nussbaumer and Eddie Saenz
dart around the field. He thinks
their speed and ability to get into
and out of tight spaces will mean
many completed passes once they
get the overhead game properly
cO-ordinated.

But Scent International Title

The Union Printers baseball team
leaves tomorrow for Detroit where
it will join 10 other Typo mines for
the 34th edition of the Union Print
ers' International Baseball League
tourney.
The local lads are leaving behind
a dismal record in the Departmental
League where they chung tenacious
ly to last place, but according to
Charley Holbrook and Eddie Ed
wards, two members of The Stars
composing room staff, that doeSn't
mean thing.
Last year." reminds Holbrook
who holds down the Job of president
of the printers league, our team
wasn't as good as this one. Yet
we still reached the finals where we
lost TO ST. Paul by a close score"
That's right" says Edwards, who
managed the team to four straight
crowns from 1887 to 1941. And l
personally look for them to go to
the finals again this year. I said
that last year and put myself out
on a limb. Well this is a better
team. The hitting and fielding is
much better. They've played good
oall all year in spite of the records.
Most of the games they lost were
! by close scores"

tional inspiration to play heads-uI

ment record book which shows that
Washington has won the crown le
of the SO times the tourney has

after a years layoff, looked great
but injured his neck slightly on the
final play of the afternoon. Gilmer
gave the staff a hint of his poten-
tial offensive value by crossing up

" pc Vi campaign.
The late Gene Talmadge of
Georgia was the prophet of the
new era of racial hatred. The APP
peal Of these demagogues to the
baSer passions of the people has
dangerous implications This fact
must never be minimiZed or dis
counted. The Negroes of the
country have chosen to make a
frontal attack on southern tradi-
tons and it is not surprising if
these latter day" NegrophobcS
do not elect to counter in kind,
that is by frontal attacks.
Rise of the DixleCrats with
their state rights campaign is no
more than a polite way of saying
with the demagogues of the past,
keep the Negro down" The cur
rent campaign of South Cardinals
Gov. Strom Thurmond is hardly
more than a revamped Tillman-
ism, Bilboism, RankinlSm, Tai
madgism and all the other anti
Negro ismS that flourish in the
south.
Because the issues are so tight
ly drawn on state rights and the
implications thereof, the coming
election is going to be largely IN
the nature Of an lntCrraCial poll
telling where the Negro stands in
the hearts and minds Of the pco-
pie Of the nation. The DiXiecratS
will serve that one good purpose
of letting the world and the Ne
gro know how stands the case of
race relations in this country.
Story viii BE Told in November
The strength of DIXlccraCy is
the strength of the opposition to
the Negroes full citizenship. The
weakness of DiXlcCracy Will in
dicate how far the Negro has
gone in winning the war for de
mocracy for Negroes.
There are those of US interraC-
iallStS who at times grow hopeful
at some display of this nation S
more favorable attitude, while at
other times deSpalrlng because of
what amounts to a national gang
up" on the Negro in a drive for
his rights. But the story will be
told in November in terms that
cannot be mistaken.
A more momentouS election, as
it concerns the Negro, has never
been held in this country and II
all stems from the civil rights
stand Of President Truman which
set off a species Of resentmcnts

foundations. November will tell
the story! However the election
may go, Truman must be credited
with having focused the attention
of the nation and world on the
step-citlzenship of the Negro. A
large part of the nation is
ashamed and the others will vote
with the DixiecratS.

Editor: Thanks TO the paper for
commenting on the outlandish
behavior of some of our people,
young and old, on the buses and
street cars.
You'd think the ministers
would every now and then talk
to their congregations on public
conduct. It's so important to
minority groups that their people
make good public appearances.
We appreciate what the paper
did for our church in May very
