US. REFUSES BARBADOS
LEADERS, APOLOGIES

KINGSTON, Jamaica - (ANP)
The United States government,
few days ago, apologized to the
Government of Barbados, B.W.I.,
for detention of, and subsequent
refusal of entry to the US. of
Grantley Adams, majority party
leader of Barbados House of AS
sembly.
Bound for Berlin to attend a
meeting of the International Con-
federation of Free Trade Unions,
Adams sought passage through
New York. On arrival at New
York's international Air Port, he
was detained by immigration of
ficers who informed him he would
be herded off to Ellis Island.
Adams asked to be sent back to
Canada where he boarded plane
for Berlin.
Barbados protested through the
, British government. The secre-
tary of state for the colonies got
in touch with the state depart
ment in Washington and the Co
lonial Attache to the British EN-
baSsy.
Later, the Barbados government
received from the American con-
sui a full apology from the us.
government with explanation
that the incident happened
through misunderstanding. The
consulate also said that an apollo
gy was being sent direct to
Adams.
A barrister at law, Adams is
the distinguished coloured West
Indian who around 1949, raised
a rumpus at the Paris Confer
ence of the World Federation of
Trades Union, in defence OF
American and United Kingdom
foreign and colonial policies. He
had struck hard against the So
Wet Socialist intentions and was
as a result, dubbed by Russian
satellites, "a tool of the imper-
ialist powers"
In Jamaica, feeling ran high
this week, against the frequent
insults being meted out to West
Indian government leaders by the
US. government. Norman Wash
ington Manley who himself was
pushed off to Ellis Island on
visit to America couple of years
ago, blamed the British Embassy
in Washington for not making
sufficiently stern representations
to us. officials against these
atrocities. He added that the i'm
migration officers at the various
ports of entry in the United
States were distinguished for
toughness than for intelligence.
Other sources here feel that the
US. government was right to de-
tain every leader of political
thought in the Caribbean, as that
would bludgeon them into ac-
cep ing federation and self-gov-
eminent in the Caribbean area.

The story OF the 18th annual Or.
angc Bowl Classic has been en-
tered into the record book, but
a few facts will have to be omit
ted.
First Of all. Baylor was the bet
ter of the two teams: some will
disagree of course, but when they
tried TO stall with Seven-pOint
lead in the second half against a
team like Georgia Tech. they ma
turally defeated themselves.
Several things hurt Baylor. One
was the pass defense that Tech set
I'D in the second half The three
passes that we're intercepted could
have hccn r. d. 5 but the alertness
of the Georgia Tech defensive back
field told the story Of their victory.
The toe of Pepper Rogers. who
kicked the l4-yard field goal with
three minutes to play in the fourth
quarter was the final crushing
blow.
During the first half. Tech seem
ed TO work in Spurts, were Baylor
was going along smooth like clock
work. In the second half it was
just reversed.
The quarterbacking of Larry Is
bell was the work of master. His
deception kept the Tech line of ba-
lance during most OF the game.
If the ground, or ] should say
sand, (many spots were ankle
deep would have been harder, the
Baylor backfield would have pick
ed up additional yardage. Several
times with only the safety man be-
tween them and the goal their foot
ing gave away when they tried
to pivot from them.
The other noticeable fact that was
against Baylor was the roughneSs
penalties called on them. In the
Southwestern Conference football
is played hard, but when they tried
TO play the same kind of game
with Southeastern officials charg-
ed with roughneSs.
All that witnessed the contest
will agree that those two teams
we're evenly matched Many more
have gone further and stated that
this was ihesbest of all the games
played in the Orange Bowl since
its birth.
Much more can be written on
the game, but 10 me, as well as
those who sat around me high atop
the bowl. the game was worth the
trip. plus the expense.

is the half-time show put on by
