WaIc0tt Welcomed
Home by 100000
Cheering Neighbors

Camden, N. j. (NNPA) = Jer-
sey Joe Walcott, bringing home
the worlds heavyweight boxing
championship which he had won
by knocking out Ezzard Charles
with a left hook to the jaw in 55
seconds of the seventh round of
their fight at Forbes Field in
Pittsburgh Wednesday night of last
week was greeted here last Friday
night by 100000 wildly cheering
neighborS.
Welcomed home by the most
extraordinary reception in South
Jersey history, the 37-year old
fighter reacted almost shyly.
only in this country could l
have gone so far" he said through
loudspeakers from the steps of
Camden City Hall to thousands
gathered on the plaza at the end
of a triumphal motorcade.
Walcott was beseiged by sounds
from the time of his arrival at
Central Airport, Pennsauken, from
Pittsburgh, at $40 pm.
Thousands broke through police
lines. At the airport be was greeted
by his wife and six children, who
had been brought. to the airport
in green convertible Cadillac, as
part of an eleven-car motorcade
escorted by motorcycle police.
Carol, 6, got away from her
mother, who cried: "My baby i
where's my baby" Mayor George
E. Brunner had the child safely
in hand.
An estimated 100000 lined the
streets through which the motor
cade passed en- route to Roosevelt
Plaza outside City Hall. Walcott's
wife, Lydia, and their six children
rode with the champ to city hall
where elaborate ceremonies were
neld.
The welcome almost bordered
on carnival atmosphere, although
it was supposed to have been a
formal reception. Small boys and

other spectators swarmed all over
Walcott during the ceremonies.
Mayor Brunner hailed Walcott
as "now the real champion" allud-
ing to a similar homecoming ac-
corded Jersey Joe after he lost
split decision to Joe Louis in
December, 1947, at which time
Drummer had declared him Cam
den's world champion"
Drummer introduced Felix Boo
chicchio, Walcott's manager, and
Dan Florio, his trainer. They had
accompanied Walcott on a plane
lent by Thomas E. Millsop, presi-
dent of National Steel Corporation.
Mrs. Walcott was introduced.
She smiled silently. Finally Jersey
Joe was called upon. He was
given a thunderous ovation.
Quickly, then, Jersey Joe was
rushed into Mayor Brunners' Of
flee to make recordings to be
broadcast to Portugal, Spain, Italy,
Germany, the Far East and Latin
America by the State Department
Voice of America.
For overseas listeners, Walcott
said: Trust in God. Only He can
bring you fulfillment." His inter-
view was translated into the Ian
guage of the countries to which
IT was to be broadcast.
Deputy Director of Public SAT-
ETY. said the crowds that cheered
Walcott at the airport, along the
nlotorcade route and at City Hall
were as large as those that greeted

here. But I also found flagrant
cases of discrimination and they
shall also be recorded here.
During the first two days of my
visit each time 1 noted flagrant
cases of discrimination against
colored people and inquired about
pit, was told by white officers
that colored personnel on the base
had asked that it be that way.
By the night of the second day
I was about prepared to state in
an article that what segregation
existed at Fort Lee existed be-
cause the colored people there had
asked for it. This conclusion had
been based on what I had seen
and the results of my talk with
colored officers such as Lieutenant
Harris and others.
But late that night wandering
around the base alone, I ran into
the majority report. I walked into
group of about nine colored Of
ficers on the base and suddenly
realized that the men I had pre-
viously talked to at Fort Lee were
the men whom officials wanted me
to talk to.
Then 1 got the complete story
from the majority viewpoint. In
brief this is the majority view
point at Fort Lee among it's col
ored personnel: General Graham is
operating the base in full segre-
cation of colored people and has
set up on the base a rubber
stamp" Negro advisory council
which quickly approves" every
step he makes on segregation so
that whatever he does it to all
intents and purposes approved" by
his colored personnel. Actually, it
is approved by no more than five
colored officers who are especially
favored on the base and whose po-
sition is so powerful with the gen.
eral that any colored man oppos-
ing them is quickly transferred
from the base and often sent to
Korea.
AS. previously stated, these are
no idle charges: First I shall list
the determinations I found and
then present the proof:
1. Fort Lee is currently spend
ing 100000 to build an officers
club for "colored officers only"
with no other intention in the
world but to keep them out of the
half fillion dollar Officers Recrea-
tional Center located on the base
which serves as a virtual "Riveria"
for white officers and their civil
ian friends for a radius of more
than 100 miles.

Fort Lee, Virginia - Despite
President Trumans directive call
ing for integration of colored men
into the Armed Forces, army Off
Gals at Fort Lee, Virginia are
/. currently spending $4,000 in gov
ernment funds to build Jim Crow
officers club for colored officers
In one of the most brazen defiances
to the United States Government
since the Confederate Army fired
on the Stars and Stripes at Fort
Sumter, South Carolina.
Let there be no mistake about
it = Fort Lees answer to Presi-
dent Truman's order is open de-
fiance. There's no attempt to hide
segregation and discrimination
here. It's all out in the open for
the president and anyone else to
see and no one attempts to apo1-
ogiZe for it.
So far as colored personnel is
concerned, Fort Lee, named after
Confederate General Robert E.
Lee, is actually being operated by
Major General R. C. L. Graham
as though it is still one of the
Confederate states and as if Gen
erel Lee himself were it's COM
nanding officer. It is the worst
army installation I have visited on
my tour, worse than Ft. Benning
These are no idle charges. I
went into Fort Lee with an open
mind. For two days I combed the

ppeos Court Ruling Rebukes Judge Cock in Juvenile Case

The Municipal Court of Appeal;
yesterday gave the public one o1
its -are chances to look into the
operation of Juvenile Court by
much-critlcized Judge Edith H
CockIiI.
1t Gid SO in a decision reversing
the theft conviction of a 17-year-
old boy and rebuking Judge Cock
rill for two specific errors and one
apparent boner.
Judqe Brice Clagett. writing the
ooinioa Of the three-judge ap-
pellatc bench, ordered a new trial
in the case
Convicted Year Ago.
A juvenile Court jury con-
vlcteG the youth year ago of
stealing $3.50 worth of amplifying
equipment from the Church of
God, 1926 Evarts street NE.
The Government case rested
cnieflv on the boys admission of
guilt a, the time of his arrest, on
tre church pastors testimony that
the prCperIV had been stolen and
on testimony that the boy led
police to the recovery of the
stolen goods. The youth did not
take the witness stand in his own
defense.
Judge Clagett ruled the "con-
fessicn to police was properly
admitted into evidence by Judge
Cockr!ll.
But after examining the record

to testify in his own behalf L
one which the court is required tc
give when requested by the &C
cuSed.
The instruction as given did
not meet this test. This error
alone requires reversal"
Question Of Juror Bias.
The question of the bias of a
Juror stemmed from a conversa-
ton overheard by the youth and
ian acquaintance in the court cor
Iridor during trial recess.
Although this matter was not
presented to Judge Cockrill until
after conviction, the court later
was given two affidavits, stating
that the juror, who could be iden-
titled, had been heard to say that
the youth on trial should be given
"a truth serum" before he took
the stand.
This statement" the appellate
Evening star., 1951-10-04

with particular care to satisfy
oul selves that the proceedings
were IN all respects proper" the
appellate court discovered these
flaws:
l. Judge Cockrill refused to give
the jury a defenSe-requested in
.Struction stating that failure OF
the boy to testify on his own be-
half must not be held against him
in any way
/ 2. Judge Cockrill refused to in
quire closely into the boys COM
plant, during a new trial motion
hearing, that he had overheard a
Juror during a trial recess express
bias AGAINST him.
3. That aside from police testi-
mony as to the boys confession
the evidence presented to the jury
was Insufficient"
Remarks of Her Own.
On the first point, the court
found that Judge Cockrill had
substituted remarks of her own in
place of that requested by defense
counsel.
"(Her) instruction, while proper
in itself. did not meet respondent S
request" Judge Clagett declared
with this application:
1T made no reference to re-
spondent's failure to testify in his
own behalf. An instruction from
the judge that the jury should
draw no unfavorable differences
