Chicago world. (Chicago, Ill.) 1918-????, 1949-02-05

MADISON, VISIBLE joined
the navy ain force during the last
war with the idea of seeing the
world but Cal Vernon, the Bad
gers reserve fullback and NCAA
light heavyweight boxing champ
never got into an airplane. and
never had a ride in even SO much
as a rowbOat, although spending
all of his 81 months Of service
in the southern part of the Unit
ed States.
Vernon's first ride in an air
plane was with the Wisconsin
football team in 1947 when the
Badgers played Yale at New
Haven, Conn, and during the
winter he travelled twice more
with the boxing team to Pullman,
Washington, and Minneapolis,
Mimi. So this year he can call
himself a real flight veteran on
Wisconsin's three game travel
ing grid schedule.
Strangely, Vernon, who has
achieved his biggest share OF
athletic fame as boxer, never
boxed before, or ever witnessed
a boxing match in ring prior
to enrolling at Wisconsin in the
fall of 1916.
After the footboll season of
that fall, when he won mis- num-
erals with the Badger Junior
varsity, Vernon was messing
around as he calls it, in the
,, Badger boxing quarters and
Gorge Makris, now Michigan
State mitt mentor, who. was the.
Badger assistant coadh at the
to go out for boxing. ''Sure" said
time asked him if he, would like
Vernon, not thinking any more
of it, and when the annual Con-
tenders Tournament came around,
Makris enrolled Vernon, surpris-
ingly, he copied the 175-pound
crown. -4--
His rapid rise as a boxer, was
boosted along by a lethal punch
and he went on to win THE 194S-
Contenders and All-University.
titles. Then came the climax of
his career-the NCAA title last
| March. His biggest thrill of all
| his achievements was knocking
out the rugged Ralph Shoaf of
Virginia in the semi-finals Of the
tourney after the Cavalier APP
parently was ahead on points.
During his short two year box
! ing career he has lost only two
matches, the first against the
Badgers NCAA champ Myron
Miller. in the All-UniveTsity fin
ais in 1947, and the second in the
i quaTter-finals of the Olympic
! trials in Boston last June.
Vernon started his Badger
| grid career as a left halfback
but was shifted to fullback this
year to make better use of his
hard running qualities. .-<;@ i n
/ He was born in Marley, Iowo
in 1925 and moved to Mason City,

Watch for Next Step

Last Tuesday, the city commissioners successful
in purchasing several water companies which will improve
water service according to report of $500 water
This service is long past due there have been lots
of suffering and inconvenience to who have paid
for water outside of city limits although somewhat
disconcerting after reading the headlines in the daily
papers to find Souhsde which needs adequate water
service as badly if worse than any the county,

Mr. Gale Baker, city engineer said the purchase which
comprises the greatest number of users at the Palmer
Water Company south of Henshaw Road east and west
of 18th Street, between 10th and goth Streets which
1,244 customers, was bought at cost of $142, OOO
When the water superintendent asked by the
Sum- if the companies which served the Southside had
been bought, he replied "Not yet but that will be the
city's next STEP"
may be wise for taxpayers to watch for this next
step how long will take to make that next step
how long will it take companies serving in communities
where Colored live, to to terms Remember! it's
old Aerican custom that property in Colored districts
considered worth much but always sells at premium
prices.

DEWEY TALKS FOR
RECONSTRUCTION OF
REPUBLICAN PARTY
BY Alice A. punnlaan

WASHINGTON = amp - Ad-
uniting that the republican party
was split wide open, Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey of New York offered
some suggestion last Tuesday
night on how the COP might
be grought back together in one
common fold.
Although Miss Jane Hunter,
prominent social worker of Cleve-
land, appeared on the same pro-
gram with the New York govern
or; and a few Negroes were
among the 900 persons who had
gathered at the Mayflower hotel
to attend the Lincoln day dinner,
the former Republican Presiden-
tial candidate was perfectly mum
on the specific question of civil
rights and made no particular bid
for the minority votes.
At one point however, he did
state that the republican party
believes in human freedom. He
said he meant by that "a system
under which man is free to work
at the kind of a job he wante-
job which fits his own skill
and talent; to seek job or to
quit one: free to seek the educa-
ton he wants; free to start a
business free to create; free to
produce; free to benefit society
by the ablest use of his talents,
and free to keep enough of the
proceeds to provide incentive to
Others to go and do likewise"
Also in his human freedom he
described a way of life under
which government exists to pro-
tect the rights and equal oppor-
tunities of all its citizens = not
way of life in which the indi-
vidual lives to serve as a cog
in the machinery of government.
Miss Hunter confined her adj
dress mainly to the birth of the
republican party. 1t was the spirit
of Abraham Lincoln which gave
birth to this party, she said, and
ii is the challenge of this hour
that the Negro race furnishes
more capable leadership.
She praised the Negro press
for the splendid job 1t is doing
to mold public opinion, and point
ed out that the Negro of America
today wants equality in education
and labor.
American dreams means the
dreams of the Negro" she CONT
nued 1.-THE republican party born
upon the dream of Lincoln start
ed black and white citizens on
the way together. If the republi-
can party today would unite and
go out for justice of all men,
black and white, north or south,
it would win the day. The task
of the party has just begun =
challenge you to let freedom
ring" she concluded.
