stance he fought a white man.
For Negro fighters this may be
a boon. The fighters who won in
this years Golden Gloves were
youngsters : : newcomers to the
top Of this great amateur meet.
Some of them toppled old favori-
tes from their thrones. Golden
Gloves perennials fell this year,
and did not repeat.
Fans have been crying because
no young fighters were coming
up to replace the old. The armed
forces did not produce the army
of hungry anxious fighters after
the war that came after the first
war. This time the CT bill of
rights made it possible for ex-
CTS to seek other fields.
The new crop of Golden Gloves
champions with five Negro
champs may indicate that a new
era of boxing at last is coming. :.
On the Joe Louis front box
ing opportunities for Negroes in
the South may open up at last :
not because of this one incident,
but possibly a series of followup
events. There still are a lot of
poor folks in the South = color
ed and white. If boxing is opened
up there you may find the South
the training ground for future
boxing greats.
The South provides top base
ball and football players = why
not boxers? From this point the
south itself could stage big bouts
that people from all over the
nation would come to see.
Fights between colored and
white fighters could be a way of
substituting for actual race hate
in this section of the country.
Both races could let their boxers
fight battles for them. Something
like this could psychologically
help the whole South and the at
titudes of the races toward each
other.

You Can Have Your Crunt, I'll
Take The Stage III.
This week the international
Boxing club is having its troubles
again in Chicago : not troubles
putting on fights, but troubles get
ting fans to come out and see
them.
It seems that the American tele7
vision public likes to see a good
show, and boxing does not put on
the show that it's counterpart,
wrestling, puts on for people.
And since the advent of the big
time wrestling in Chicago, .big
time boxing has had a hard way
to go.
This week all the old-time
"names" of yesteryear = Jim
(the Golden Greek) London, Pri-
mo Camera Zone of Joe Louis
early boxing victims, Buddy
Mature Boy Rogers, and Gene
(Mr. America) Stanlee = will be
there in all their rejuvenated
glory. Then there is the Chicago
Stadium, Mar. "a where two days
earlier the IBC will have put on
a very fancy boxing show featur-
ing Bob Satterfield and Tommy
Gomez.
This ringsider must admit that
the muscle boys do put on quite
an entertaining show : the last
time a big show was held in Chi
cago, one Gorgeous George went
a little too far by taking a punch
at referee Jack Dempsey : : and
both women and men get a big
howl out of the whole thing.
All he can say to that is that
he still can see one Of several
good stage plays in Chicago's
loop if all he wants to see are
some good acts.
The IBC has an excellent card
with two kayo specialists, Satter-
field and Gomez, featured in the
main bout and cutie Freddie Daw-
son and Charley Salas of Phoenix,
Ariz. in the second ~co-feature.
Both bouts will be for 10 rounds.
The fight is on between box
ing and wrestling in Chicago.
Wrestling has won the prelimin-
airy battle : it has the better
night, Friday to boxing's Wed.
nesday.
Future of Boxing : Who Knows?
Predicting the future of any
thing is a hazy topic to say the
least : especially boxing. A
couple Of items in recent news
papers encouraged this particul
ar treatise.
One was that five Negro box
ers won titles in the recent Chi

IF any of your relatives, friends

writing as often as possible.
There is nothing better for the

We still think "groan" is the more
