New England bulletin., 1949-06-18

For some weeks now, the read CTS of this column have been en- frightened as to the accomplish ments of the 19d9 graduates of Hartford Public High School. There is, however, one whose name and contributions have eluded the public eye due to the fact that through his n1odesty and unselfish- mess, he has sacrificed public note for the sake of his fellow class mates. As Plato writes, "Modesty is a Virtue"-and in this particular case will not escape unnoticed.
 It is affab1e Ralph Davis of whom I speak. Ra1ph's accom- plishments in the athletic and or atorial fields, scholastic and SOC ial endeaVors, qualify him at one of the city's finest graduates.
 As a sophomore, of HPHS, Ralph was member of the Boys Club, track squad, and more important the first Negro to become a swimmer on the schools state championship squad. It was dur ing this year that Ralph won his first notable oratorial honors as he captivated HPHS audiences in win ming first prize in the Elizabeth Park Speaking contest.
 In the following two years, Davis twice won second place honors for competing in the 1909 Public Speaking Contests. As a junior, Ralph was a member of the Phy- sics Club and contributed as strong competitor on both the swimming and track squads.
 The first of his race to compete fin New England swimming meet, he swam 100 yards backstroke and 100 yards free style at Amherst College and at MT as senior. He competed unsuecessfully for 2 years in the American Legion Ora torial contests.
 Ralph, as a senior, orated to the semi-finals of the Tournament of Orators held in New York City He became an active member of the World Problems Club, the Chemistry Club, and was elected president of the HPHS Debating Club. As a representative of the Student Council, Ralph was chosen

SandIot Baseball
 Reaches New Hioh

Sandlot baseball has reached a peak this year due, more than like ly to the increased interest in the grand old American sport.
 Another reason-perhaps the main one-is the realization on the part of the younger generation that there are extreme. opportunities to be gained through constant play ing and scientific study of the game.
 With many present major league ball players drawing more than the President of the United States, sandIotters are doing all in their power to reach near per fection in the hope that they may soon get chance in the big lea gues.
 And from another angle comes the realization on the part of many Negro youngsters that they too have a chance to participate in ma jor league play if they are suf- fciently talented years ago the could not have this chance ev- en though they were tops. Now that there are more than 9 Ne gro players in organized baseball, these youngsters have a goal in sight a goal made possible by the brilliant playing of such men as Robinson Dolby, Paige, and CampaneIIa
 A hash-baclk into the childhood days of these now baseball greats will reveal many days which were spent in pastures and empty lots where these men sacrificed a good meal or community social event to

stretch the game an inning or two. Many times they knew they had a scolding or whipping in store for them, but baseball meant more than the punishment in store for them
 In this day and age however, parents are more 1enient for they fully realize that their son may some day have his name in head lines because of his diamond ex- ploits.
 Yes, the grand old game is fore most in the minds of today's young sters. Just drop by any make shift ball diamond and watch them put their very hearts into the game.

DEAR MIR. LEE.

While reading Sports Review in the May Fist copy of the Bull letin, I noticed that you ventured out on the proverbial limb with the belief that six Negroes now hold World Records in track and Held. A look at the record books as of today, June 9th, will reveal that 12 Negroes hold World Rec ords! This figure includes indoor as well as fresh air'' competition Some of these globaI marks are held jointly with fellow white ath- etes.
 The select dozen is headed by Olympic 100 meter champ, Harri- son billiard with six records. Herb McKenley and Jesse Owens tally three each, while John Borican, Barney Ewell, Eddie Conwell, and Ben Johnson have two apiece Rounding out the roster are Herb ert Thompson, Lloyd LaBeach, Hugh Short, William Carter, and the great Ed Tolan with one apiece.
 Through the medium of athletics, particularly track and field where the largest representativ bodies of tS1e Negro and white races meet, the Human Problem" that con-1 fronts our nation today may be appropriately handled. As a white boy who has entered inter-racial competition, am constantly aware of the fellowship and suitability, free from artificialfty, which re. suits.
 only hope that as the years pass, Negro and white will toe the starting line time and again. It is this keen rivalry, demanding nothing but fair play and equal advantage, that will produce the unslanted gentleman of tomorrow.
 Sincerely
 JERRY PENN
