men were exploited to help Notre

Dame.
And, proselyting has been going
on for long. Colleges have sought
outstanding high school students
over the years in music, science and
other fields. Why not outstanding
students in sports? The music stu
dent may not know any more
about science than the scientist
knows about music. Why, then,
expect the athlete to knaW all
about Bach, or why keep him out
of college because he doesn't
know? He intends, no doubt, 10
make his living in sports, just as
the musician hopes to make his
or hers in music. 1t doesn't take
much imagining to realize how
much money Sherman White, Ed
Warner and others might have
earned as professional basketball
players.
Now about sports scholarships
and the scholarship of an athlete:
Much has been said about the 10
OF some of the players in the re-
cent scandal. One radio commen-
tator said two or three of them
never should have been allowed to
enter college. Well, what is the
purpose of college? Perhaps it's
function should be redefined. IT
had always been my opinion that
a college was an institution of
learning to train and equip men
and women for public careers and
good citizenship. 1t seems to me,
then, in the light Of the present
controversy, that a college today
might we'll consider sports as a
major course in it's curriculum,
just as it should consider radio
and television techniques. Fine car
eers await men in both fields. AS
a matter Of fact, just to cite one
case, young Bobby Brown of the
New York Yankees baseball team,
is doctor, but has has chosen to
continue in baseball. There are
many other college trained men
in baseball, and at least one base
ball manager is a former profess
sor. Practically all the professional
football players are college grad
yates.

Errors Cost Baker
In Loss To Henry
BY Horace Carter

ian Clarence Henry, forcibly
gained a bout with ex-heavyweight
champion Ezzard Charles, by his
eighth-round upset knockout Of
Pittsburghs Bob Baker, at Madi-
son Square Garden here last Fri
day night. Baker had the advan-
tage in weight of nearly twenty
five pounds, scaling 209, in the
reach and in the scoring of the
three officials up to the eighth and
final round, when he made the
same error once too often.
The repeating of this error
showed either inexperience or
over-confidence, and led to his de-
feat, arousing speculation by ex-
perts on both aspects. Baker had
had only twenty-six profights in
cluding this bout with Henry,
twenty-four which he won, seven
teen by knockouts, one draw on
his previous outing and this upset
loss to Clarence Henry.
In the second, third, sixth, sew
enth and eighth rounds, Bakers
chin was made to order for Henry,
when he kept leading with his
right. All of Henrys blows didn't
land on Bakers chin; he was too
hard to miss and was cut over
the left eye as early as the second
round.
On the other hand, Bake's right
lead might have been used repeat
edly because of Over-confidence,
feeling that one of them would send
his lighter opponent, who expected
the jab, to a ten-count slumber.
Even as Baker entered the ring,
he was aware of the betting odds
and the opinions of the experts.
He ran into a snag only where
Henry's potent left hooks were
concerned.
For Henry, the victory was an
important one and he was lifted
from his feet like a lightweight
after his knockout, by one of his
seconds, for this was the win to
get him the near-title shot with
Ezzard Charles.
The bout started off with plenty
of action, with both fighters doing
more. than feeling each other out.
Solid left hooks to the head by
Henry and rapid rights by Baker
sent both fighters off to a crowd
pleasing start. The second and
third rounds had the same tempo.
However, what appeared to the
crowd to be a showdown from the
fourth to the seventh round, found
Henry getting under Bakers long
jab with solid and telling blows to
the body. Baker gave an indica-
ton that the blows were telling
when he kept momentarily pulling
at his trunks, and gave away with
the effect of the blows precious
wind he needed later to ward off
the futry of Henry's left hooks.
Baker did unusual leading with
right in the eighth and final round.
When the Pittsburger rocked the
Californian and made his knees
buckle and his legs sag early in
the round, hard lefts and rights
to Bakers head and body lasted
2:14, when Baker found himself
half in and half out of the ring,
befuddled, surprised and beaten.
He left the ring, however, under
his own power.
Referee Ruby Goldstein, who in
step it up in the final round, scored
cidentally told the fighters to
one round even, and three rounds
for each fighter. But the points
went to Baker, the aggressor.
Judge Joe Agnello had Baker in
front, four rounds to three, while
the ever controversial Frank
Forbes, former boxer, and the
other Judge had Baker five rounds

Lao In Realistic
Thinking Factor
In Sport Scandals

! Situation points to new concept;
college of Athletics" seen urgent.
By julius j. Adams
! Editors Note: The following ar
ticle by Julius ]. Adams, presents
an entirely new idea both in the
field of education and in that of
| economics. 1t concerns therecent
scandals in sports. The article goes
beyond the question of crime and
punishment and discusses what Mr..
Adams describes as a new concept
that must be explored and re-
solved if the colleges are to achieve
a realistic position in the field of
sports conSonant with the posi-
| ton of sports in our economic and
professional life.
Sports today, Mr.. Adams aserts,
is major industry, and men
] must be trained for it, just as
they are trained for engineering
and medicine. Mr.. Adams, who di-
re cts Sports for Global News Syn
dicate, is a veteran of more than
20 years of newspaper experience.
He has been managing editor of
the Chicago Defender, and Sports,
and managing editor of the New
| York Amsterdam News. He is au-
thor of a book, "The Challenge,
A Study in Negro leadership" and
a number of pamphlets and articles
on sports, politics, business and
national affairs, including his
tory of Tammany Hall, profile of
a Peacemaker" Ga story of DR..
Ralph J. Bunche) and "The Gen
tlemen From Illinois" "a story of
Negroes in Congress-.
New York (GlobaD practically
everybody has had at least one
say about the sentencing of the
young athletes in the basketball
/ fix cases and of the Vitriolic COM
ments of Judge Saul STREET in
melting out justice. This is my
! piece.
I, First, I am not going to ascend
the bench and judge the case.
That was Judge Sterit's job and
he did it, obviously to the best Of
his ability, and I am told he is a
competent jurist.
Frankly, I think much of the
comment on the whole matter has
been wild and illogical. If the boys
were guilty of crimes in the eyes
of the trial judge, then he had no
recourse except to punish He was
bound by law to do that. So that
point is not one for debate.
There are many critics who are
blaming recommendation in
sports, and are arguing for an end
of athletic scholarships. They would
like to see football and basketball
returned to the "good old days"
confining sports to a minor place
in college life with little or no en-
phasis on them.
Well, it might be just as hard
TO turn back the clock in sports
as it is to turn back the clock in
our economic, social or political
life. There are many who advocate
reversing ourselves in all these
areas. They have learned, how
ever, that this cannot be done;
that it is not necessary for us to
do it; that the main job is to re-
adjust our moral actions to the
new concepts.
For another thing, football and
basketball are not the only phases
of college life where there has
been cheating, but nobody has
suggested accomplishing engin-
eering or military science because
a few buns were found steal
ing their way through. You simply
punish the culprits and then en-
ploy all possible safeguards to
prement a recurrence of such cases
as those that involved the players
