Good-Time Charley as his friends
cal him, was born in Texas City,
Texas on September Is, 1922. His
parents died when he was very
young and Charles was raised by
his grandparents. His entire family
had been musicians, and the grand
parents had decided there had been
enough musicians in the family
and wanted something else for
young Charles. Still, they couldn't
keep him away from music COM
pletely. There was too much in
his blood. When he was ten years
old, his grandmother started giving
him piano lessons. He was attend
ing grammar school in Texas City.
His grandparents sent him to Gal
weston to complete mis- final two
years of high school.
He graduated from high school
with hOnors at the age of 16 and
went to Prairie View College at
Hampstead, Texas. He majored in
science and math at college and re-
ceived his B. S. degree when ne
was twenty years old. One thing
his grandparents did not know was
that while majoring in science and
math, he was also playing piano
with the college band. After gra-
duation from college he became
head Of the science department at
'the George Washington Carver
High School at Goose Creek, Texas.
Charles with mis- aggregation is
scheduled to appear at Riverside
Park, the Home of Name Bands,
Friday, February %.
The name "Smartie," with which
Charles has always been tagged
because of his unusual educational
background will stick with his
group which is best known as Good
Time Charley and the Smarties.

CHICAGO, ILL. - The Golden
Gloves boxing tournaments are the
greatest Jewelers." in sports today
and have probably opened box
ing's door to more young Negro
fighters than any other boxing
event." says Arch Ward, sports
editor of the Chicago Tribune and
founder of the Golden Gloves tour
nament, in an article in the cur
rent issue of EBONY, Negro pic
ture magazine. -s-s.-
The Golden Gloves are respons-
ible for the great number of Negro
boxers in the ring today, since
they have provided the opportun-
ity for the young colored boys
"who, because they had to battle
their way through poverty and
hunger to survive, BECAME top
notch competitors, Says Ward.
There have been cases where
Southern white boys objected TO
entering the ring with Negroes,
''but we have never flinched in
our determination that the Golden
Gloves champions Woufd.abe cham
pions of all qualified boxers rather
than all-White or all-Protestant,"
says Ward. "We are proud that
we have given Negroes st41e oppor-
tunity of winning fame and for
tune in the ring lin contrast to
the early days Of boxing when
often discrimina ton played a big
part in keeping competent colored
battlers like Sam Langford and

Answer to Question No. 3:

Opened The Door To Neqro Boxers

Harry Wills from getting a chance
to become champions"
Ward says there were difficult
moments at first because of mixed
bouts, necessitating pre-tourna-
ment meeting of all officials, at
which time they were asked if
they harbored any intolerance
against Negro" a Protestant, a
Jew or a Catholic. Officials with
prejudices are kept from officiat-
ing where his prejudice would en-
danger the calling of a fair deci-
sion."
Ward, naturally, cites the cases
of Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, Ray
Robinson, Harold Dade, as out
standing examples of Golden Glove
Negro fighters who have and are
continuing to inspire other Negro
youngsters entering the tourna-
mentS.

I. The use of hospitals has
grown remarkably in recent
years. One important reason is
the spread of disqualification in

financial burden Of hospitaliza-

Arthur Godfrey says, cts not too hard to live on
a small income if you don't spead too much time trying to
keep it a secret"
It is unfortunate indeed that too many people feel
prone to try to live up to economic and social standards
which are far in excess of their means. 1t is frequently de-
scribed as trying to keep up with the JoneseS."
Perhaps there is a deep underlying psychological
factor involved. People want to rate, to be important, and
to be recognized as a scintillating success. We live in a
culture in which, too often, a person is Judged by the
things he possesses.
Many people in low-income brackets get the idea
that their social status in the community is based on their
income and the economic liberties they can take, so they
overdo it trying to carry the impression that they are in
position to do big things too. Consequently, they take
pride in announcing that they buy their clothes from the
high-priced clothing stores and their food from exclusive
food shops. Sometimes they buy the largest car they can
find and use many other methods to try to fool the pub
lie, to try to hide the fact that their income is low.
With the spiral so close to initiation, low-income
people of America today are finding it most difficult to
get along, however cautious they might be. And they have
a right to enjoy the vital necessities of life just as any
other people. Our country has a great responsibility to
the people an should make it possible for their level Of
living to be lifted into a bracket of responsibility without
too much strain on their part. But when it is all said and
done, the people themselves will have to develop a differ
ent philosophy of life if they are to make the best of
their opportunities.
We have learned today to judge the quality of
every thing in terms of the dollar mark. This is one of
the great fallacies of our times. Modern advertisers have
capitalized on this cultural weakness, and have been
successful, for example, in having women to junk per-
fectly good clothes by seasonal shifts in styles and fash
ions-and no woman wants to be out of style and out of
step with the times.
Thus a lot of people are continually strained be-
yond their means trying to keep in line with good So
clal taste" If we could just realize, however, that the
things for which we spend most of our money are fire.
quently those things which are the least important!
Moreover, one does not have to be extensively dressed.
nor does one have to drive the most expensive car on the
market to get a good ride.
The things of real value, in the final analysis, are,
the realm of the spirit. And many persons whose names
are numbered among'th immortals are people who lived
simple yet noble lives on meager financial incomes. The
quality of a mans life is determined by his attitude to-
ward persons and possessions, his purposes and the center
around which those purposes evolve.
There is nobility in the simplicity of life, and this
nobility is within the range of discovery for every indi-
vidual.

Chairman of the workshop was
Joseph XII, a young Negro from
French Africa, who was praised
by delegates for his intelligent
and dispassionate handling of the
group. XII visited the campus of
Antioch College at Yellow Springs,
O. today. The NAACP was repre-
sented at this workshop by Walt
er Darlington, president of the
Harvard University NAACP chap
ter.
The use of radio and motion
pictures to combat discrimina-
ton was urged by the group,
which aired its belief that ra-
cism gives Communism an OPP
portunity to create hatred and
distrust among people. "What
Communism is doing-and prom
ising," XII said, places the chal-
lenge squarely before the World
Assembly of Youth. WAY. must
