Tommy Johnson, stock out
board commissioner for Region
4 of the American Power Boat
Association, is a five-star go
getter. Latest johnson endeavor
is plan to award plaques next
October to all region high point
drivers in the stock outboard
classes.
Before turning to Baltimore
businessmen in his home town
for donations, Johnson is asking
each club in the region, which
Includes Washington, if they
would be interested in sponsor
ing a plaque. So far he has re-
ceived offers from Middle River
Boat Club, Solomons Island Out
board Club and Wildwood Beach
Boat Club.
johnson would award prizes
to high point drivers in AU. BU.
Gu, DU, EU stock runabouts, also
A, B and D stock hydros. In ad-
dition, he would give awards to
overall winners, professional and
amateur, in stock runabouts and
stock hydros.
1t is planned to make the
awards at a big drivers dinner in
October at the Middle River
Boat Club in Baltimore.
West River Sailing Club at
Galesville is bursting at the
seams with kids. Fifty-f1ve
youngsters checked in last Sat-
urday for the clubs new junior
sailing program and, according
to Commodore Walter Windsor,
there are half a dozen more anx-
iouS to sign aboard.
Now that all hands have passed
their swimming tests. they will
be taken out tomorrow on men,
bers' larger cruising sailing
boats for the first time. The
theory is to give them an idea
of what makes a Sailboat go. Two
weeks from now, Junior Chair
man Bill Heintz and his over
worked staff hope to have the
first four Penguins delivered
from Galesville's Dick Hartge.
There are some old hands who
say that day can't come too
soon.
The Thistle class joined the
weekly series of West River S. c.
last Sunday and the winners
were the Heintzes, father and
son. Bill won the first race.
then turned the boat Highlander
over to son Dick, who lived up
to the family tradition by being
a mighty smart sailor.
When the Wilson Point re-
gatta north of Baltimore is
staged this week end, Commo-
dore Paul Price of Capital Power
Boat Association will be on hand
with his 48-cubic-inch hydro
plane. The amazing thing about
it is that Price blew the block
in his CroSley engine last Sun
day at the Hopewell (Va) re-
gatta, and it looked as though
he would be out for weeks.
Asked about it this week, Price
commented: ooh, I had another
Crosley on the Shelf" Further
inquiry revealed that it was the
seventh Crosley that Price has
used since he started racing
several years ago. He has one
more after the latest, and when
that goes Mrs. Price probably
will keep him home to do some
work around the house and
garden.

week that their farm club at Oma-
ha. Nebr., has hired its first Ne
gro ball player. He is second
baseman Elroy Robinson, bought
from Sherman, Tex, of the Glass

sion to state the policy of the
Redbirds regarding Negro players:
1--WE want players of ability"
Busch said. "I'll never argue with
any of the scouts about the color
of any player they sign up, as long
as they can help us win"
my gosh, who wouldn't want a
Jackie Robinson or Bill Bruton.
That Bruton killed us a couple of
weekends ago with a triple and
look what he did to us on opening
day"
Busch also pointed out that their
newly hired Negro scout. Quincy
Troupe, had already signed two
players, one from Fresno. and the

NEW YORK, July 22.-With
the release of basketball dates for
Ned Irish's annual college series,
the absence of any colored col
lege team is as noticeable as the
absence of Notre Dame.
The South Bend university has
been one of the mainstays of the
Garden doubleheaders since the
program began 20 years ago. Their
series with New York University
was the stellar attraction, as box

thing.
This year, NOtre Dame and NYU
continue their series uninterrupt-
ed but strictly on a home and home
basis, the first game being at
South Bend this season. Always
a past sellOut, this game poured
thousands of dollars into the pock-
cts of the promoters. That dough
now goes directly to the schools,
but the question uppermost in the
minds of fans is where is the
New York game to be played?
