Church. The occasion was the first
program in the 23rd annual for
UNI series sponsored by the King

civic and educational club. AS
speaker for the occasion, DR..
Troupe was superb.
Early in his discourse, he quot
ed Georgia's former governor,
Ellis Arnall, who once said: 'No-
where in the world can some men
be free until all men are free"
as one of several timely examples
employed in establishing his sub
ject. He pointed out further that
the finest civilization and culture
are based on freedom.
Patrick Henry's immortal
words from his famous address
"The War Inevitable"-"give me
liberty or give me death"-were
cited by DR.. Troup as shining
demonstration of the determine
ton Of the early American sett-
lers to gain their freedom from
the mother country-England.
Respect and regard for ecch in
dividual as a member of society;
cooperation, and complete reli-
ance on the method of intelli-
gence as basis of improving the
social order of all, were cited by
the speaker as ideals, basic for

The doctor also quoted from
President Truman, when the Chief
Executive said: his point four
program is more necessary today
than ever in defeating the forces
of communism. However, in a
statement contrast to this, the
speaker pointed out that in his
opinion, making democracy a
functional thing at home is the
greatest weapon America has
against communism.
DR.. Troup ended his address
very appropriately by relating
Rabcock's immortal poem, BE

Round The Edges
Al Tech
BY ERNESTINE MATHEWS

Students of Tech are being re-
minded to make a date now with
their parents, relatives, and family
friends to visit the shops and class
rooms of the school during open
house on Marcn f. A complete
program of events will be made
public in the near future.
At the Civil Aeronautics Admin
istration Building at Tucson, last
week, two of Techs vocational
aircraft maintenance students took
the last step in their training to
become aircraft mechanics. They
were Ed Nonac and Roy Jesperson.
These boys have done a fine job
here at Tech in our own aircraft
shop. We wish them the best of
luck on their exams.
Students in advanced auto me-
chanics did an excellent public re-
lation job on car owned by a
legless amputee. The car was
equipped with controls that would
make it both safer and easier for
a person in his condition to use.

NEW YORK, (GlobaD.-Jerry
Mitchell, writing in the New York
. Post the other day, said There is
plenty of room in the Baseball Hall
of Fame but the way voting is
going, many of the past greats
OF the game will never make it,
heartily agree. It seems that
the writer's of today think of no
one but the present day athletes.
1t. is true, that they get more pub
licity because of television, radio
and the fact that the public is
more athletics-minded now than
ever before.
But how about the poor forgot
ten athlete of the past-the one
! who might have an unmatched
suit or cleats On his shoes, or
sometimes with only parts Of the
uniforms, coming out of the game,
whether baseball or football,
smeared with sweat and dirt, yet
honored by the tumultuous ap-
plauSe of the crowd.
These were our heroes whose
records still stand out without the
live ball; without improved con-
ditions of cinder-made running
tracks; without the beautiful
green turf football fields and rig
id training conditions which are
now part of all athletic endeavors.
OF course, one cannot be blamed
for putting on campaign for any
athlete in his immediate vicinity

slip by without some form Of
lasting consideration.
In the early days, practically
everything was segregated. You
could not play professional base
ball and there were few given
consideration in other forms Of
athletics unless they played in all
Negro organizations. Negro bas-
ketball and baseball teams are an
example of this form of athletics
in the past, so why shouldn't there
be a place for some of these grand
old men of the past?
The new generation can fight
for its Jackie Robinsons, it's Joe
DiMaggios, its Campanellas, its
MandelS, its Sal Maglies, and 9TH
erS. If our Board thinks any of
these men worthy, there will be
a place for them in our Hall of
Fame, which, 1 repeat, has moth
ing to do with any other Hall of
Fame.

is plenty of room for
anyone's Hall of Fame as long as
the voting goes right and they
don't forget the greats of the past.

Sports Closeup
By
Fritz Pollard

New York put on. a futile cam
paign for Joe DiMaggio, while
Philadelphia put on a winning
campaign for Al. Simmons. How
ever, it appears that all these
voters should take into considera-
ton the past deeds Of all great
athletes whether it be in the Base
ball Hall Of. Fame or any other
Hall of Fame. - 3
With the idea of giving these
cherished athletes a niche in its
halls, to show the younger gener-
alton what paths these former
greats had to travel in paving the
way to gain national fame, the
Negro Athlete Hall of Fame was
founded. 1t was with no thought
of segregation when this institu-
ton was formed. 1t was an idea of
the founder to give recognition 10
all those, regardless of race, creed,
or color, who might never have
been seen by some of the present
generation or who have been
passed over by the people sup
posedly in a position to give them
due recognition.
Yes, we prim ly had the
thought in mind to give those
great Negro athletes of the past
consideration because we know
no one else will ever think of
them and we do not intend to
allow the public to let these greats
