This scribe would like to make
a few first hand obligations on the
pride of Ohio, Ezzard Charles,
heavyweight champion of the
world from Cincinnati.
First, we might say that Benny
Jones, erstwhile D~aytonian and
University of Dayton basketball
player (when he was permitted to-
play by a seemingly prejudiced
coach is faring very well as an
integral part of the staff attend
ing the personal business of
Charles. Benny is we'll known by
most Daytonians. Altho originally
from Cincinnati, he moved here
after marrying Miss Jean Biggs Of
Boyer Street.
Those who are intimately &C.
quainted with Benny know that he
is as sincere as they come. There
is no pretense or conceit about
him at all. Benny is typical of most
Of Ezz's close frieds. They are
honest with one another. This is
unusual because the heavyweight
crown is the about the biggest
prize inthe sports world. Invariably
the phonies leech themselves onto
the champ. For instance, Joe Louis
himself honest, has been and still
is surrounded yb a large horde of
parasites all seeking personal ag-
grandizement. They have WEIGHED
Joe out of thousands.
Having spent a considerable
number of years in the Apple
New York;, this scribe is ac-
quainted with most of the phonies
who hang around trying to get
close to the celebrities with the
cash. He has see Joe's flunkies
surrounded by the fine chicks
hoping to get next to Joe. It did
his heart good to see Ezz, Benny,
Richard Christmas and the others
repel them with their native sin
cerity.
In his party the night after
Charles beat Lesnevich, your scribe
noted the expressed disgust of the
group against those who delighted
in being seen in the company Of
the champ. You know the type,
they sit and wave so that they
may be seen by everyone. In fact,
Ezzard's special guest at the fight
was a home town girl.
This modest quality of Ezzard
is something we had to write about.
Pride should be taken by Ohioans
that one of their number has reach
ed the pinnacle of ring fame with
out reaching the pinnacle of con
ceit. We hope he continues in the
same vein. We are sure he will.
