SPORTS ROUNDUP
BY BUS

by BUS
Sugar Ray Robinson, one of the
best fighters, pound for pound, in
the history of the fight game
easily defeated Charley Fusari last
Wednesday night at Jersey City to
retain his welterweight title. Most
score cards gave the Sugar IA of
the Is rounds, and Substantiated
most of our opinions = if Sugar
could make the weight-the fight
was in the bag. 1t was necessary
for Ray to weight in three times
before taking off the pounds to
come in at 147. Robinson has
stated that if match can be ar
ranged with Jake LaMotta with
his middleweight title at stake that
he will relinquish his welterweight
title, but only then. Sugars purse
was donated to the Damon Run
yon Cancer Fund-he received 81
for his efforts last night. Whata
Man!
Ike Williams, lightweight cham
pin will get a chance to avenge
his recent defeat by George
(Sugar) Costner, welterweight.
But since then he has been de-
cisively defeated by one of our
Arizonans, Charlie Salas of Phoe-
nix. This fight was supposed to
have been a breather for Ike,
but like the Costner fight the un-
derdog, had no trouble in beating
him. Now he has another tenta-
tive revenge fight with Charlie
Salas, for early Sept. at Wash
ington, DC. Our advice to Ike
is not to fight anymore over
weight fights before he avenges
his last two or all of his future
fights might be for the purpose
of avengement-maybe he is go
ing back! Anyway, Salas is on his
way up and it is my opinion that
his victory was no fluke and was
well deserved. Charlie is nice
guy-good luck fella!!
The two hottest clubs in the
National League, the onrushing
New York Giants and the youth
full league-leading Philadelphia
Phils, start very important series
tonight wednesday,. At the pres
ent time the Phillies are leading
the National League by five full
games and this series could make
or break their chances to cop
their first flag since 1915. Those
amazing Giants have won IL OF
their last 10 games, and are nine
games behind. Speaking of the
Phils and also speaking of one
reason for their present gap in
the race, brings to mind cousin
Don Newcombe" that is, cousin
to the Phils. Newcombe has faced
them four times this year and each
time he has come out on the losing
end. His latest effort was last
Tuesday when big Don was on the
losing end of a 6-5 score.
Hank Thompson, Giant third
baseman has been in a batting
slump for some time and should
soon break out with some base
hits; this would please Leo and
Hank. Rookie Gilbert, Giant first
baseman has. been benched by
IDurocher in favor of Monte Irwin,
who as an outfielder, has made
an adequate replacement at first
base.

NEW ORLEANS, La, (ANP)-
The end is in sight now for Ne
groes who, have fought a losing
fight for two decades, to have
the city clear away an eye-sore
in the heart of a densely Negro
populated area, and as well pro-
vide an elementary school in keep
ing with the times.
Architects who furnished the
plans for the contemplated new
school, presented the school board
with a 116-page volume, telling
the needs for the school, and the
type of school best suited for pre-
sent day child education.
The architect, Charles J. Col
bert, a former Tulane university
in modern school design, challeng-
ed the school board in that he
suggests that the city as a whole
be aided by the erecting Of a
functional school geared to til
needs of the neighborhood.
Mr.. Colbert is of the opinion
that because of the major part
that juveniles play in crime and
other besetting activities, the new
school should embody the follow
ing assets:
1. Sex education for the area
in which "sex crimes rank high in
number and in Importance as ju-
venile offenses."
2. Health education with en-
phasis on veneral diseases which
IN the area under survey is more
concentrated than in any other
section Of the city.
8. Showers where students can
battle. (The report shows humid
reds of homes in the survey have
no private toilets or baths.
4. Adult education as well as
education for minors developing
racial, community, and civic pride"
to provide a bulwark against crime
(The section has the highest num-
Der of crimes in New Orleans).
5. Spacious recreational facili-
ties for both young persons and
adults to provide outlets for en-
ergies that might otherwise be de
voted to crime.
6. Education related to propel
housing to make students Mindful
of the Indecent, unsafe and un
sanitary homes in this, the 'wors
housing area ofthe city"
Money for the prosposed schoo
has already been made available
but no site has been selected. Plan
for the model school have bee
placed in the hands Of each schoc
board member, but what the re
action will be no one now ca:
predict.

much to offer onthe surface be-
cause neighbor fighter is much of
a crowd pleaser. Charles is eff
ficient but not sensational, and
Maxim is clever, but not very art
istic.
One sports writer, however, sug-
gests an idea to make this bout
really an attraction. He wants it
billed as a fight for two titles.
Charles is a natural It's FOUNDER
so the point isto match them for
both the heavyweight and light
heavyweight titles with Charles
weighing in at IT'S pounds.
On this basis they would be the
first tow men to fight in the
rings for two championships at
the same time. What a night this
would be!

/ tary school, had no idea of includ-
ing it's program, such a sweeping
innovation. In fact they were
merely interested in a social en-
bracing 46 academic rooms to
house IS children each, an indoor
play area, and a cafeteria seating
800 students. Other than that, the
board had no other detectives in
mind.
The architects, after bounding
the area in question, showed that
"sex crimes rank high in number
and in Importance as juvenile Of
fenses." The head of the police ju-'
venile division Capt. William A.
Walker, stated that the major
reason for the high incidence Of
sex crimes must be attributed to
the low level of. sex education.
It was pointed out that the
proportion of delinquency in girls
is much lower than in boys; how
ever, the survey studied showed
that a very large number of
young Negro girls are annually
charged with sex crimes and pose
a serious problem to schools in
the area and to the city as a
whole.
The area studied disclosed that
most Negro elementary schools do
not allow girl students to leave
the playground during the school
hours. To nail down one of the
probable causes of delinquency the
architects wrote:
"Children ranging from eight
through 10 years of age are
brought into daily emotional, men
tai and physical contact. Fully
mature male youths sit alongside
; young girls not yet undergoing
adolescent. Obviously many forms
of juvenile delinquency, including
sex crimes, are actually initiated
by improper age-grade placement
and classroom instruction" =
To aid in correcting juvenile de-
linquency the reports suggests:
1. A full time recreational pro-
gram.
2. An adequate playground
carefully planned for ease Of SUI
pervision.
8. Hobby shops and work cen.
tiers for extra %curricular as vel
as class time usage.
4. An assembly space for tn,
+ schools, parents clubs, civic groups
and the Parents Teacher associa
ton.
,, s. A library and browsing room
Not one Negro school in tn
. city enjoys such facilities, an

: groups have pointed out the neces
sity for there expedient asset

: ear to them.

Ronkin's
Hote-Mongerine

Rep. John Rankin. the most
vocal of anti-Semitic Congress
men. is daily continuing crude
propaganda circulated to create
the impression that Jews and
Communists are linked.
It is known that Rankin does
not aim his speeches at the intel
ligentsia. His stuff is designed
for the fellows in the neighbor-
hood bar-the pool room element
with little or no education. Ran
kin'S speeches are widely reprint
ed and orally quoted by hate
mongers from coast to coast.
Rankin entitled a recent speech.
''Faker Einstein." suggesting that
the great scientist was a Com
munist and should be deported.
On the same day he made an
other speech which is perhaps
typical of the stuff he has been
spewing for years. Presenting
his topic. "Yiddish Communism
Versus Christian Civilization"
Rankin said:
''Those individuals who pirate
about slavery do not hesitate to
join in this Communistic move
ment to enslave the white people
of America, to destroy the Amer
lean way of life and to wreck
everything for which the great
mass of the American people
stand.
You have an illustration now.
Our Yiddish Solicitor General
has taken it upon himself to go
into the Supreme Court and mis-
represent the American people
by filing a brief in the Henderson
case. He pretends to be doing
this for the Negroes. He and his
gang do not give a tinker's dam
about the Negroes. They are
doing the Negroes infinitely more
harm than good. This is part Of
the Communistic program. laid
down by Stain approximately 80
years ago. Remember. Commun-
ism is Yiddish. understand that
every member Of the Politburo
around Stain is either Yiddish or
married to one.
'They have murdered more
white Christians in the Ukraine
in the last 80 years than have
been killed in all the rest of the
world since the Crucifixion."

Mr.. Ben-Gurion came out un-
equivocally against drafting a
constitution. He appealed for a
bill of duties and work for vet
'erans, citizens and newcomers
1llike. His main argument was
shat constitutional codes might
'oe needed in countries establish
'ed by revolutions, but for Israel,
where the revolutionary process
must continue for years to come,
II set of rigid privileged laws
would be harmful. IsraepS rev.
')lution was not against an au-
thority but a state of exile, and
It moved forward every time an
other boatload of Jews arrived or
more barren land was redeemed,
he said.
Mr.. Ben.Gurion agreed that
much legislation inherited from
the British and Ottoman regimes
must be changed. but a consti-
tuition would not accomplish this.
In arguing against the need
for special constitutional law,
Mr.. Ben-Gurion cited the army
service bill which he considered
of a constitutional character be-
cause it dealt with fundamental
matter. Yet six months after the
law was passed, a number Of
amendments were found neces-
sary. If the law had the rigid
status of constitutional law, there
would have been the anomalous
position of the same Knesset,
made wiser by experience, need
ing a special majority to reverse
it's own decision, Mr.. Ben-Gurion
said.
Israel requires a democratic
regime with legal code supreme
and meeting day to day prob
lens. A constitution would not
fill this need. he said.
The peoples sovereignty must
be supreme and no jurists or
Judges should be above the law
or be entitled to judge the law,
the Prime Minister emphasized.
He was particularly opposed to
supreme court or any other
body of men having power to
nullify Knesset legislation on the
grounds that it conflicted with a
constitution. A bill of rights was
included in the Proclamation OF
Independence which was signed
by all parties when the State was
created. he concluded.
The Knesset will recess from
March 81 to May 2, according to
Speaker Sprinzak. Debate on the
constitution will be interrupted
for two weeks and priority will
be given to education and the
budget. Mr.. Sprinzak said budget
estimates must reach the House
Committee this month if debate
is to be completed before the re-
cess.

PLAIN TALK
BY Alfred Segal
PARocHIAL SCHOOLS

Editor Gerhardt Neumann has
invited me into a staff meeting
Of his paper. the Detroit Jewish
Chronicle. and asks me to speak
on this. that and a lot of other
things which were discussed at
the meeting.
They were all about the mat
ter of being Jewish and Jewish
education with special mention Of
Jewish parochial schools which
recently have been appearing in
cities all around the country. On
his editorial page Mr.. Neumann
reports, verbatim, what his staff
said in that meeting. It's there in
place of the usual editorials.
Well. gentlemen. thanks for let
ting me in on this and may say
something about Jewish parochial
schools? It's on my mind every
morning. Every morning on the
way to work I pass the Jewish
parochial school in our town. It
occupies a large. handsome. re-
modelled dwelling on the main
street of our suburban Jewish
community. called Avondale.
It stands almost midway be-
tween the two public schools in
cur community-one at the south
end, and the other at the north.
I heard it has good teachers who
teach reading, writing and arith-
metic but Jewish education is
fundamental there. Its Judaism
is orthodox.
The large majority of our COM
munitY prefers the public schools
for its children but regards the
parochial school (called days
school) with becoming tolerance.
It is thought of as a meticulous
lady who in her own way is re-
solved to keep her children clean.
In her own house she can look
after them and protect them from
the dirty boys next door.
1 myself look at the school with
mixed feelings symptomatic Of
the Jewish confusion Of our
times. There was a time when
the idea of a parochial school was
alien to all Jews in the U. S. In
that time we all felt sure of the
perfect processes of the melting
pot, as it was called. The Jew
ish and Gentle kids were grow
ing up together in the public
schools, getting to know each
other and being friends, in &C
cordance with the American con-
cept. The noble inscription on the
Statue of Liberty proclaimed it.
True. there were some nasty
kids who. when they got mad.
called us Jew" but these were
like the occasional fly that annoYs
you in the summer time: you just
shooed it off.
After public school hours we
attended the Hebrew school
around the corner. Our parents
were thankful that the kids could
be brought up as good Americans
and good Jews at the same time
in this way. In our town Jewish
boys came out of the public
schools to take worthy places in
the affairs of the general COM
munity. Brought up in the public
schools, they couldn't think of
themselves as people apart. Their
mindS and hands were in many
things of the pubic good.
