It's getting along toward the
end of the year now and time
for us to begin thinking about the
filing of Income-tax and Social
Security schedules. The Social Sc
curity schedules, however, are
filed only by persons who are
either self-employed or a member

We've had experience now over
a two-year period (1951 and 1852 {
with these forms and it's Surpris-
ingly good. In order that it may
be even better in the future I'm
going to offer a few suggestions
to those of you who file as self
employed.
1t is surprisingly how many
people fail to keep a copy of the
forms they filed with the Direc-
tor of Internal Revenue. It is i'm
portant that you keep an exact
copy of each form along with the
records from which it was pre-
pared. You should have b 0 h.
Sometimes it is necessary for a
of our office or of
Internal Revenue to inspect them.
A number of persons engaged in
lawn maintenance work, house
repairs, and many other small
businesses fail to keep records of
receipts and costs and expenses.
When it comes time to prepare
their forms they indulge in lot
of estimating - guess work to
you. Then, because of some err
ror, it becomes necessary for us
to review their returns with them
and they try to remember how
they arrived at the figures they
They can't because they
have forgotten a lot of details of
what occurred the year before
last, and they're up against it.
Above all, make a systematic
record of all monies received and
what 1t was for and do the same
for all that you have paid out
that pertains to the business. Do
not run any of your personal or
living costs in on this record. Keep

NEW YORK. Jan. 10.-The

its heaviest decline since the re-

The drop was considered quite

before it would exceed what is
considered normal limits for
such a movement.

By FRITZ POLLARD

NEW YORK (GlobaD = It has
been six years now since Jackie
Robinson joined the Brooklyn Dod-
gers baseball team, and in the in
term, number Of other Negroes
have come into the major leagues,
practically all of whom have be-
come stars. This is not hard to un-
derstand Before they joined their
respective clubs in the big show, all
of these players had had wide ex-
perience as players. The competi-
ton they faced, in many cases, was
as good as that they found in the
major leagues; certainly it was
much better than any white rookie
faced in the minors. For surely.
there are not many of the minor
league clubs that could have beaten
the average club in the Negro
leagues.
Even so, and despite the fact
that Negroes have made good in
the big show, only six of the league
clubs. have seen fit to use Negro
players. It is hard to understand
why public sentiment hasn't crys-
tallized sufficiently to effect a
breakthrough in the other ten
clubs. and that includes Cincinnati,
There are good Negro newspapers
in all these cities, with able editors
and staffS.
This is especially true in Detroit.
and If the Yankees can argue they
haven't hired a Negro because they
have consistently had winning
team and haven't been able to find
a Negro capable of ousting any of
the teams regulars, this certainly
cannot be Detroit's argument. For
a'team that had won only 26 games
up to last Saturday and the season
with it's total of 154 games more
than half over, the manager should
play anybody he can get. It is OBJ
vious that the fact that Detroit has
not Negro player is not because it
doesn't need material; it is also
probably true that the reason the
Yankees do not have one has moth
ing much to do with material. 1t
should be remembered that the
Brooklyn Dodgers have, for long
time, had a strong farm system
and could easily have reached

down there for a second baseman
at the time Branch Hickey sent
Jackie to Montreal, which was the
first step toward Ebbets Field.
I have frequently been critical
of Branch Hickey, and have at
times felt too much credit was
given thim for introducing Jackie
Robinson to major league specta-
tors. But the more one thinks
about other clubs and their refu-
sal to hire Negro players, the more
he must re-think his position on
Hickey. True enough, New York
has an excellent Fair Employment
law, but neither ST. Louis nor Chi
cago has, Yet, we find the ST.
Louis Browns and the Cleveland
Indians and the Chicago White
Sox finding room for Negro play
erS
For those who don't know it,
the Chicago Write Sox team with
it's park on the South Side, has al
ways been a favorite with Negroes.
Old Man Charles Comiskey was
one of the first, and for long
time, the only major league owner
who used a Negro trainer. The in
fluence of Bill Veeck is responsible
for what happened at Cleveland
and later at St. Louis. The Chicago
Cubs always have been snooty,
perhaps one reason why Veeck was
squeezed out, Notwithstanding the
fact that his father was for years
closely associated with the elder
Wrigley.
The only clubs with Negro play
ers are the New York Giants, the
Milwaukee Braves, the Cleveland
Indians, the ST. Louis Browns, the
Brooklyn Dodgers, and the Chicago
White Sox. The hold-outs are. the
st. Louis Cardinals, the New York
Yankees the Pittsburgh Pirates,
the Cincinnati Reds, the Chicago
Cubs, the Philadelphia Phillies, the
philadelphia Athletics, the Wash
ington Senators, and the Detroit
Tigers.
The Negro press, ever alert to
the many opportunities of winning
another victory, should undertake
to eliminate Jim crow from organ
lied baseball within "a reasonable
time"

Series Between Ebonettes And
PBSW RombIers Close Tonight

The current series between the
worlds Negro champion Los An
geleS EbonetteS and the PBSW
Ramblers of Phoenix is hotter than
ever with the Ebonettes winning
Tuesday night 5-4 and with the
hitting Ramblers coming back
Wednesday night to win 11-3.
Billie Harris, brilliant Negro
south-paw was most of the show
Wednesday night giving the slug
ging Ebonettes three nibbling
blows. She was bothered somewhat
by wildness in the first outing but
managed to bring the ball into the
strike zone on the critical batterS.
She is slated to return to the
mound Friday in what will likely
be the deciding game of this red
hot series.
Billie Harris is the first Negro
girl to pitch for major Arizona
womens team. Her opportunity to
play in the majors was made possi-
BILE through the sponsorship of the
Arizona Sun. The management of
the PBSW Ramblers cooperated
with the Sun in borrowing her
from Tucson.
Dot Shaw, Lillian Duke, and
Bunny Johnson have been brilliant
for the Ebonettes with Shaw hold
ing the host Ramblers to four hits
in her initial outing.
The Ramblers are riding on the
slugging ability of catcher Dot
Wilkinson, pitcher Margie Law,
and first baseman Virginia Dobson.
The young Rambler infield has
averaged two double-plays per
game for the series.
In any event the Friday night
encounter will close the hot rivalry
between the Los Angeles girls and
the Arizona Ramblers. Sports fans
have been most appreciative of the
series.
