SPORTS

According to Sphinx, Mrs.
Manley feels that the Negro
leagues are on their way out, at
least in the large cities. The
livelihoods of 400 Negro ball
players are in jeopardy because
four players have been success
full in getting into the major
leagues.
She says the Negro fan would
rather watch Dolby, Robinson,
Campanella and Paige than
Negro league game any time.
She feels that there has been
a lack of sincerity on the part
of certain major league owners
in their purchase of Negro ball
players. In conclusion she begs
the Negro fan not to desert
Negro baseball and warns GER
tain interests that they cannot
ram the Negro player down the
throat of the baseball magnate.
Mrs. Manley is the gracious
lady who blasted Jackie Robin
son as an migrate for his indict-
ment of Negro ball. We think
about as much of her latest
statements to Sphinx as we did
about her remarks about Robin
son.
1t is about time we faced the
fact that Negro leagues are on
their death bed. They should
have been dead long ago. They
were born out of prejudice and
lack of opportunity for the
Negro athlete. Player conditions
were atrOcious and the caliber
of ball was poor since most
teams had only three or four
capable players. Since coaching
was below par the players sell
dom developed to the fullest
extent.
Mrs. Manley's plea about the
poor 400 families of players in
Negro leagues is farce. Now
that the barriers are broken
more and more Negro players

Rent Director Tighe E. Woods
said he would ask the 81st Con-
greSs not only to extend, but to
strengthen rent con tr o but
tenants were still faced with the
problem of what to do about
month to-month leases. Should
they sign, or shouldn't they?
Sidney Ordower, chairman,
Progressive Party Rent and
Housing Committee, told The
Standard:
Tenants are already protect
ed to some extent from eviction
without signing m n t h-tO-
month leases-until termination
of rent controls in March. Pub
lie pressure could win continual
ton of controls then"
1t was problem-and not
the only problem facing tenants.
Next big headache was the
growing percentage of rent in
creases being granted landlords
by the Chicago Office of Hous-
ing and Rent Control. Many of
the increases were retroactive to
May and June.
Progressive tenant groups
urged tenants be alert to rent
increase frauds. They suggested
the following fraud detectOrS:
/. Tenants should insist that
they be notified of their land
lords petition to the Office of
Rent Control for an increase.
2. That they demand to be al
lowed to examine material sub
mitted by the landlord support
ing an increase.
3. That they insist on mott
fication from the Rent Office
should an increase be granted.

Lewis repeats
defense of
French miners

WASHINGTON (FP)-United
Mine Workers Pres. John L.
Lewis repeated his support for
striking French coal miners Oct.
80 in a memo to AFL Pres. Will
liam Green.
Lewis said, your Minneapolis
statement was honest and COM
mendable. You went as far as
you dared to oppose the shoot
ing of hungry French mine
workers" According to press
accounts, Green expressed SYM
pathy for the French mine work
ers when questioned in Mime
apOlis concerning Lewis first
letter to him.
In his Oct. 80 memo Lewis
added, 1T was known to me,
however, that upon your return
to Washington the Truman ak
men and your personal enemies
in your own office would force
you to retract.
Lewis concluded by saying, Il
realize that your position is most
difficult and that your footsteps
are constantly logged by your
own reactionary outfit. If your
position is such that you would
wish another secret meeting
with me, send me word in the
usual way and l will arrange
something"

title, as they defeated hard
charging Los Angeles Ram team
81 to 6 before 56,263 in Los
Angeles. The Bears scored on
the first play of the game on a
69-yard pass from Johnny Lu-
jack to Ken Kavanaugh.
But it was the brilliant play
of J. r. Boone, the 158-Ib. scat
back, that led to two touch
downs in the fourth quarter to
ice the game. Boone scored on a
twisting 35-yard run and two
yard quick opening play.
Dec. 18th when the two teams
meet head-on, is not far off and
both teams seem determined to
come into that game without an
other defeat. Both teams have
lost one game.
The Chicago Rockets held on
doggedly to their cellar position
as they did the same old thing
in the same old way, dropping a
44-21 decision to the San Fran
cisco 49ers in San Francisco.

Legality Of un-Americon
committee to be tested

WASHINGTON -(FP)- The
civil rights problem posed by
the House unAmerican commit
tee will be considered by the
U. S. Supreme Court for the
first time, it was announced
Nov. 8. The high bench agreed
TO hear argument on the case of
Gerhart Eisler, Austrian Com
munist convicted of contempt of
the committee.
The case is of widespread in
terest in the civil liberties field,
since the Supreme Court has
previously avoided ruling on the
many-sided question of congress
siOnal probes. In addition, the
behavior of the House labor COM
mittee of late has brought the
subject of probes run hog wild
directly into union circles.
Questions still unresolved,
raised by House unAmerican and
labor committee action, are: How
far may a committee go in prob
ing the personal life, associations
and beliefs of a witness? What
rights do committee witnesses
have? What procedures should
be followed by committees?
The Eisler matter revolves
principally around procedure,
since Eisler was held in con-
tempt by the committee for re-
fusing to be sworn. The witness,
however, said he was willing to
be sworn after reading a
3-minute statement on the politi-
cal persecution methods of the
committee. The ruling of the
high bench may be limited to
this narrow issue.
In another order, the court
denied an appeal by John How
ard Lawson that his case be
heard directly from U. S. Dis
trfct Court, without first passing
through an appeals court. The
government said the appeals
court should hear the case, and
the supreme court evidently

Cards stun Lions 500;
Bears whip Rams 21-6

Last Sunday was welcome
back day for Pitching Pa ul
Christman and he reciprocated
by throwing three touchdown
passes as he led the Chicago
Cardinals to stunning $500
victory over the inept Detroit
Lions in Comiskey Park before
23,501.
Christman was ably assisted
by the slashing cunning of
Elmer Angsman, Pat Harder,
and Charley Trippi as they
romped up and down the south
side gridirOn with reckless
abandon in one of their best
performances of the year.
After leading by the slim
margin of TO at the end of the
first quarter the Car d i n a | S
turned on the heat to push over
three touchdoWns in the second
quarter. Detroit was never in
the game thereafter.
The Chicago Bears kept pace
with the Cardinals in their bat
tie for the Western Division
