Men of that ilk contribute very little to-

degrade. They have a spotlight turned on Their
stupidity. That is all the bigots want in order
to claim some justification for allowing Ne
groes to be exploited. There have been out
standing examples of fighters knowing how
to take care of themselves outside of the ring
as well as in it, Harry Wills is one. He has
large real estate holdings in New York There
never has been a benefit performance for him.
OF course the most outstanding example
of prize fighter taking care of himself out
side the ring as we'll as in it, is Sugar Ray

his venture Robinson has been earning for
years. Besides owning some high income pro-
ducing real estate, Robinson owns some very
lucrative businesses.
individuals like Ray Robinson, Harry
Wills and Joe Walcott add to the stature of
the Negro race. They know how to take care
of themselves and the only people who are
respected in this world are those who have
what it takes to care for themselves.
We salute Jersey Joe and wish him well

Key 10 Success: Take Care Of Yourself
BY lauren White

There is much about Jersey Joe Walcott
that deserves our admiration and respect. He
knows how to take care of himself
Born with superior physical stamina, he
has lived in such way as to preserve himself
Waleott is at least 40 years old. Most athletes
retire from stiff competition long before they
reach that age. There is no record of any man
fighting for the worlds heavyweight champi-
onship at such an age. Many times those with
great physical strength, abuse themselves so
much in their youth that they are phsyical
wrecks long before they reach 40.
This is not the case with Wacott. He has
taken care of himself physically SO well that
he is still contender for the worlds greatest
athletic honor, He deserves respect for his
clean living and self preservation He has
been source of inspiration to many. Millions
of boys will be encouraged to live clean lives
so they will be able to emulate him. Many
other individuals who may have been inclined
10 think that all people of Walcotts hue are
undeserving and worthless, have to change
their minds when the consider the life of this
unusual person.
However, there is another interesting
phase of Walcott's life. He has proved he can
take care of himself out of the ring also. On
the New Jersey Turnpike, not too far from
his home, Walcott and his manager are con-
structing a so unit motel and filling station.
This project is costing around 100000 and
will net Jersey Joe about $3.50 week when
it begins operating, So, regardless of the out
come of any fight, he will be able to live
comfortably for the rest of his life.
One of the tragedies that has befallen
many prize fighters is that they have been
broke when their fighting days came to an
end. For a man to make a fortune in his
youth, squander ii, and be left virtually penn-

know is that some people have them and we
want them. We seem TO want freedom to in
duge our whims, satisfy our longings for ma
terial things, or to impress others.
When we strive for the freedom to enter
a particular field of work, it should be with
the hope of making our contribution to it..
When we strive for freedom of speech, it
should be with the idea of raising our voices
for worthwhile purposes When we strive to
live in a better neighborhood We must assume
the responsibility for keeping up the standard
Of our surroundings Our freedom to move a.
bout as we please. does not give us the right
merely to sWagger in and say we belong, il
makes us obligated to see that in exercising
our freedoms, we do not trample on the rights
Of others.
The American Negro has not long been

he has faced in the land where he was born
Many are not free even now T. was only

Freedom via Slavery
BY Robert Durr

While talking to the president (white) of
a large insurance company rs 900 policy hold
ers) engaged in selling burial insurance to
Negroes and for whom l serve as public re-
lation counselor, he told me of the largest
white owned insurance company in Alabama
which buried so per cent of all the whites
who died in Alabama last year, He wanted me
to meet an official of this huge company as
he is interested in Negroes
The man to whom he referred taught at
Howard college in Birmingham for 20 years,
resigned to do public relations for Birming-
hams up and going Chamber of Commerce
which refers calls for information about Biz

ton to this columnist and hence to his present
position.
W. B. Sowell president Of Service Insur-
ance recently introduced me to Dr. Brakefield,
who during our close to two hours conference,
praised the progress made by Negro people
as being more than made by any other group
in the amount Of time since the Negroes phys
icaI emancipation in 1865 by Abraham Lin

On Advantages and Responsibilities
BY Olive A. Adams

He was a young man, standing on the
threshold of a new life. For twenty six of his
twenty seven years, he had been blind and
now, as the result Of a corneal transplant Vi
sion was returning to his right eye, He has
an excellent chance Of reganing the fun sight
of that eye, and in the future there may be a
similar operation performed on his left eye.
He was telling his story in a TV inter
view and the master of ceremonies tried des-
perately to wiring from the young man some
wildly enthusiastic, emotional reaction to his
new found freedom But the young man was
sober and reflective and displayed a remark
able maturity
1t would certainly be nice to see he said,
but he added that he hoped the return of his
physical sight would not make him blind to
the wonders of the world as he had known
them when he was sghtless For in develop
ing his other senses to make up for the loss
of his eyes, he had learned a great deal about
people, had been able to help many who were
in need of his help, His life had been reason
ably happy Now he was hoping he would not
forget it.
For a time there will be difficulties in
connection with adjusting to every day life
The sun is more brilliant than the young man
ever dreamed, colors are brighter than he
could have imagined and even taxi cab is
something Of d monstrosity. Al Of these
things, he hopes will not constitute SO great
a distraction that he will cease being as use
full as before.
Few of US understand what freedom u.s.
We strive to gain what we call more Of The
good things Of life" but many times all we

We Are Not A Revengefu| People
DEFEAT IT."

Negroes did not set the fires which have
plagued white apartment house dwellers in
the vicinity of the the recent Paseo bombing.
We say this in all sincerity because We know
the habits and the tendencies of Negro Ameri
cans.
During the investigation Of the bombing
Of a Negro home it was revealed that within
the short span of week, 16 fires have been
mysteriously set in apartment buildings occu-
pied by white families a short distance from
the home of the bombed family, It has been
implied by authoritative sources that perhaps
Negroes, aroused over the bombing, set the
fires in retaliation, People are always measur-
ing others in their half bushel.
This is possible, Of course, as most any
thing is possible but it is highly improbable
The whole history Of Negroes bellies such a
charge. Negroes do not retaliate They do not

baseball moguls are so adamant In their
stand. Certainly they must realize that they
are not slowing down the democratic prog
ress being made in the field of professional
sports by this nonsensieal foot dragging
The poor saps must not realize they are
paying heavily by holding out. Everywhere
the game has been thrown open, the receipts
have increased If they're making so much
money they can afford to shun a step that
would put more shekels in their tills then
they're bigger fools than We ever imagined
Since ostensibly they're in business to
make money and refuse 10 take advantage Of
an opportunity to make IT, then their motives
must be sought elsewhere.
We thing cowardice motivated their &C
ton last week They're afraid that a Negro
striking out a white batter would debate their
ego and blast their propaganda that white
man is superior to all other races simply by
being white
Actually there's not a white man in Mis-

play even with Campanella and Robinson on
the team than sit through a second rate per-
