attempt, Owens shot down the

through space, the Negro COL

clear out of Germany. The Amer

Owens Best of Negroes.
When I began fooling around
with sports in 1900, there was a
vast discrimination that has
since vanished. There were no
Negroes in any white competi-
ton. Big time sport was almost
entirely white mans play
ground.
Oh. there might have been an
occasional player like Lewis, the
fine center on distant Harvard
team. Robson of Rutgers, Pol
lard of Brown or Slater, who
played tackle on IoWa's unde-
feated 1921 team. But as a gen.
eral rule, when I first came along
the Negro was all but shut out
except in boxing.
In the ring game the colored
race produced such early terrors
as Joe Cans. Jack Johnson. Joe
Walcott tThe Barbados Demon)
George Dixon and some others.
but in other sports they were
excluded. No one can say how
many Negro champions were
barred from practically all fields.
Since Hickey brought in Jackie
Robinson. the big leagues have
been dotted with colored skins,
many of them high up in the
game.
! In this respect, no one in the
sporting world has helped his
people to advance with such
speed as Joe Louis. In the first
place, Louis was a great heavy
weight. He was completely honest
in a game where honesty is not

packing along $4,000 first-prize
check from the Havana Invita-
ton golf tournament and his
first victory since he won the
National Open last June.
The Clayton, Mo-, golfer, who
has carried withered left arm
since a childhood accident, didn't
seem to notice the injured right
arm in the tournament windup
yesterday. He shot a 81 over
the par-72 Havana Country Club
course, a 6,377-yard layout. for
72-hole total Of 273-15 strokes
under par.
1t wasn't the best round of the
tourney for Furgol Che shot a
sc for runnerup honorS opening
day., but it brought him up
from the field for a one-stroke
edge over Walt Burkemo of
Franklin, Mich, who's making a
habit OF finishing second in this
event.
Burkemo Has Putter Trouble.
Burkemo, the 1853 PGA cham
pion, also wound up second last
year, when Bob Toski won it.
AS in '53, Burkemo had putter
trouble on the final green and
watched a six-footer go astray.
1t gave him a SO and $1,400.
Furgol never led in the four
day event until the final round
and was playing despite intense
pain in his right arm, injured
during an Australian tour two
months ago. But he licked his
wobbly putting yesterday and
displayed what he termed his
best form of the year.
The muscles IN his right arm
frightened like a wise" during the
four rounds and Furgol plans to
give them a good rest in an ef-
fort to make the January tour
naments. He's been on a leave
of absence from his Westwood
Country Club in suburban St.
Louis since winning the Open.
Furgol had only one bad spot
in the final round. That was
when his tee shot struck an OBJ
ject in the 17th fairway and
bounced into tree roots to the
left of the alley. He swung out
of the difficulty, however, with
a nice wedge shot.
Besselink Blows Up.
AL Besselink. who had three
stroke lead going into the final
round, and Shelley Mayfield, the
first-round leader with Tommy
Bolt on 65. tied for third with
275 totals. Besselink, of Gross

on the final round.
Mayfleld, of Chicopee, Mass,
finished with a 10. while Bolt,
of Houston, Tex, came home
with a II for fourth place OH a
276 total. Doug Ford of Kia-
mesha Lake, N. Y, was fifth with

First indication Seen
OF Dock Strike Break;
Mass Meeting Today
BY shs A.soeiossd Press

LONDON. Oct. 23.--With the
first sign Of a break seen In the
waterfront strike now crippling
most Of Britain's major ports.
London dock workers scheduled
q mass meeting today that could
signal an end to the walkout and
its stranglehold on the nations
trade.
AS the stoppage stretched into
its Goth day. indications were the
leaders Of the $4,000 striking
stevedores might be ready to give
q green light for a return to
work. More than $500 million
worth of exports and imports
are piled on quays and In idle
ships. Foodstuh cargoes are
rotting.
Principal hopes for early peace
lay with the London meeting. A
return to work by the capitals
26.500 idle dockers probably
would end the walkouts in other
ports.
First Sign of Break.
The first sign of a break came
last night when delegates Of
the 1000 permanent employees
Of the Port Of London Authority
recommended they return to
work Monday.
The government warned the
dockers yesterday they must go
back to their jobs by Monday
morning or troops will be called
out to move vital materials. The
strike has the enthusiastic back
ing Of the Communists.
The 2,000 authority employees
are scheduled to vote on the
recommendation at today's mass
meeting. They are the least
militant Of the strikers because
they hold full-time jobs which
are not dependent on whether
there are ships in port. A back
to-work vote by them could have
a big effect on the rest of the
men, who have been without
pay for three weeks.
Mood Changes Suddenly.
Hopes for a truce also rose yes
terday, based largely on the at
mosphere Of good will between
strikers and management dur
ing a government inquiry into
the 'walkout. But the mood
changed suddenly last night.
After the hearing adjourned,
a strikers spokesman said: "All
I can say is that we have seen
the members of the inquiry and
may be seeing them again next
week If they send for u.s."
The strike began in London
to enforce demands that over
time on the docks be on an op.
tional, not compulsory basis.
Only 1000 of the strikers
have the support of their union,
the Independent National
Amalgamated Stevedore and
Dockers' Union. The other men.
who walked out in sympathy, are
members of the huge Transport
and General Workers Union.
TGWU leaders have charged the
strike is Communist-inspired. /
