lRubenstein and Laub to shave

Feinberg, the statement said,

Baseball Fans Pave Way
For True Sportsmanship

NEW YORK - NC) - Negro
athletes, particularly in baseball,
have changed the racial attitudes
Of thousands of sport fans in the
past five years, according to a not
ed Negro baseball scout, Frank
Forbes, who spoke here this week
at a forum of the Catholic Inter
racial Council.
The advent of the Negro ball
player in the major leagues, he
said, gave many players and fans
their first opportunity to see for
themselves that skin color doesn't
determine personality or competi-
tive ability. He predicted that this
lesson learned in the spirit of
sportsmanship will be carried by
the fans into their many other
fields of interest.

II seems that the USA is not
the only place where the cry for
investigation into the athletic scene
is being heard. According to an
ms sports writer, the sports fans
in Spain are calling for a clean up
of the game of bullfighting. II
seems that neither the bulls or the
fighters are as good as the patrons
are paying for. For one thing the
bulls are smaller than they used to
be; three-year-olds are being pan
ned off for five-year-olds. This is
not fair to the bulls or is it the
bullfighters? And then the practice
of cutting off the points of the
horns of the bulls and slowing
them down with purgatiyes has
been heavily criticized as unfair
to the bull and the fighter. Even
the picadors are under fire for
twisting the goad. Well, maybe
some Spanish Kefauyer will get ION
the bull" and make things happier.
