STRAIGHT
AHEAD
BY Julius j. Adams

New York, GlobaD.-Some of
the newspapers served by Global
News Syndicate complained to us
more than a year ago that they
were not getting adequate cover
age of sports events, particularly
baseball. We surveyed the situation
and began checking. We found that
+ Negro sports writer's, including
our own, were being particularly
assigned to most sports stories, but
that many of them, including MEM
bers of our own staff, had not Jared
too we'll in some of the baseball
parks.
In the first, place, here in New
York the Brooklyn Dodgers and the
New York Yankees followed a
policy Cor at least it was the prac-
tice) of issuing season passes 10
recognized baseball writer's. The
New York Giants refused to issue
season passes, but most of the
sports writers could get passes
from Road Secretary Eddie Bran
nick by calling at his office just
before game time. Garry Schu-
macker, the publicity man, usually
would ignore requests. The odd
part about these passes issued by
the clubs is that they do not admit
the holder to the press box, nor do
they entitle the holder to seat.
Either he must stand or find a
seat in the unreserved section. The
Dodgers, at one time, had supple
mental press section outside the
Arizona sun., 1952-08-29

press box, but that has been re-
moved.
During the past three years, this
writer carried on considerable COR
respondence with officials of the
Baseball Writer'S Association in an
effort to find some kind of solution
to the Negro reporters problem.
Up to this afternoon, no decision
has been reached. The following
is a letter writer to Ken Smith,
secretary of the Baseball Writer'S
Associations:
Dear Ken:
In your August 18th reply to my
letter of July %, 1851, regarding
accommodations in the press boxes
at the baseball parks, you said that
you and the president of the Base
ball Writer'S Association had been
trying to straighten out the mat
ter since there had been so many
similar requests by news services
and publications for press box ad-
mittance.
"You stated further that you
were trying to determine which
Services were big enough and
which were not, and you were go
ing to try to reach me by phone
in order that could explain the
scope of GlobaPs operation. You
also said you would have to account
for each case certified and wanted
to be armed with the facts. I shall
try to give them to you here.
"I know you have been away a
great deal of the time and perhaps
haven't had time to look after
strictly Association business. It oc-
ours to me, however, that the Asso-
citation might well re-think it's
whole philosophy if not on men,
berships, certainly on press box
eligibility.
GAS told you before, I can un-
derstand that when your organiZa-
ton was formed the rules you
adopted were adequate and fair,
and obviously provided for repre-
sentation by all newspapers and

gencies interested in covering
games. The editors and reporters
did not have the specific interest
in covering the games as they have
today. There was no demand from
their readers for specific reports,
but that is not true today.
Surely you must realize that

Twelve days later I wrote an
other letter to Mr.. Smith explain
ing how shabby Negro sports
writer's were treated at the World
Series and outlined a plan I thought
might be workable. He replied later
that he had been busy, but that
the Association was working on a
plan and that would hear from
him. I haven't.
