up real champion, and as a rule
real champions always express
themselves just as they feel.
The writer has had various ex-
perienceS in his own field. AS an
example, while coaching and play
ing in the coal region, a young
fellow reported to our team who
called himself O'Sullivan. It was
later found out that O'Sullivan
was not his real name and that he
was of Jewish extraction. At that
time they had never had any Jew
ish boys playing football in that
section Of the country and the
management became very incensed
and had the chap, over my pro-
teStatiOnS, run out of town on the
pretense that he had been dicker-
ing with a neighboring team. The
majority of the management and
players in that section were COM
posed of Catholics. On the other
hand, have talked to the man
ayers of some teams on which l
have played and they had these
same prejudicial feelings against
Catholics
The management of the Yankee
team could be perfectly honest in
their claim that up to the present
time no boy of color has been in

their fran system, or has been
discovered by their scouts who is
qualified to play on the Yankee
team. The writer cca readily TN
derstand this because the team has
been of championship calibre for
the past years.
They have also stated that they
did not want to take a cOlOred
player merely to exploit him, and
this writer can appreciate very
much, because ha feels that in the
case of the Yankees it is not neceR
sary to exploit any player because
they have sufficient drawing power
as it is.
It is a we'll known fact that IN
order for one of our boys to make
any of these teams he couldn't be
just as good as the other fellow,
and until such time as the Yankee
scouts find someone who is going
to be better than some Of the men
they have, the writer feels that
they will not go out of their way
to put the boy on their team be-
cause of'his color.
Based on 40 years of experience,
this writer believes that when an
other Jackie Robinson comes along
Dan Topping and his fellow asso-
ciates will accept him on the same

terms as other teams have accepted
our other boys.

Many of these articles have been
devoted to the fight against social
ism because socialism is the major
menace Of the day. Writing against
socialism, arm like a farmer
spraying his fields against a plague
of insects. Everyone of us knows
that when such menaces come they
have to be wiped out before any
thing else can be done.
But every farmer knows that
spraying against insects is only a
protective measure. 1t saves a crop
that is already growing and the
crop wouldn't be there in the first
place unless a lot of other good
work had been done, starting with
the preparation of the soil itself.
Moreover, even after the insects
have been killed, cultivation of the
field must still go on.
In the same way, we fight against
socialism to keep it from destroy
ing our free enterprise system. Yet,
spraying the Reds is only a pro-
teetive measure after all. Il saves
our system from one type of men
ace. Just as crops fail from many
causes, the free enterprise system
is also subject to many dangers.
And the greatest danger of all
arises when the people of a nation
play fOllOw-the-leader instead of
setting their own course for them
selves.
In a recent article, / made the
point that in recent years we
Americans have let Washington
make toe many decisions for us.
/ mean that instead of sending
people to Washington to do definite
things for us, we have relied on
Washington to tell us what to do.
In another article, / pointed out
that Politicians do not actually
lead a nation, but instead, try to
please a majority of voters.
Now when the majority of voters
are confused, and therefore fail to
take clear positions, party leaders
try to assemble a majority of their
own. They do this by granting spe-
cial treatment to specific groups
within our nation. In short, they
use the power Of government in an
effort to sway huge blocks of
vOtes-the labor unions, or the
farmers, or some religious or ra-
cial minOrities, or anyone else
This clearly is what has been
happening in America in recent
years. The groups, as groups, have
received certain benefits. But the
nation, as nation, has become di-
vided on class and OccupatiOnal
lines.
We, the people, are ourselves to
blame for most of this.
Never before in the history of
this country has there been so
great a need for the people to re-
examine their situation, and reach
their own decisions.
In this Presidential year, we will
all have to vote more or less blind
ly, accepting one party or the
other more or less as such party
roughly and approximately stands
for what we want, or opposes what
we dislike. A vote on November
4th will be a vote for a package"
rather than a vote for every item
in that package. But when the next
Congress cOnvenes, we will all have
a fresh opportunity to consider our
major problems singly and care
fully, one at time, as bills are
introduced.
It will be the clear duty of every
American to have an opinion on
every major point, and to make
that opinion known to his repre-
sentatives.
That way-and that way only
can representative government and
genuine free enterprise flourish.

During modern Olympics athletes
have been allowed in a few cases
to use both hands in throwing Ger
tain objects. This has resulted in
longer throws than with one hand.
Forty years ago, for example, a
Finn made a two-handed discus
throw of 271 feet 10H inches. This
record was set up at Olympic Games
held in Stockholm, Sweden.
At the same Olympic meeting,
E. Lemming of Sweden made a
two-handed javelin throw of 35S
feet 1I1a inches That was a bit
of a distance to hurl a javelin!
The records of shotputting may
seem tame by comparison, but it
is hardly fair to compare this sport
with the others. The round metal
ball is hard to send through the
air!
The 16-pound shot used at Olym-
pics must be hurled or "put" ac-
cording to definite rules. American
athletes have stood out as shot
put champions. In IL modern
IOlympics before the present year,
Americans have made the top mark
10 times. A German and Finn
won in the two other OlympicS
but Wilbur Thompson, an American
holds the all-time Olympic shot
putting record up to this year. Foul

The word exotic got off to a bad
start in the United States. There
is no record of the writer who first
misused the word in the meaning
of "alluring, voluptuous. orientally
glamorous," but the error
persists. In a recent magazine
article it was said, His past was
humble, his present is exotic, his
future is uncertain"
Turning to the dictionary, we find
that exotic is from the Latin
exoticus, meaning foreign. out
