Washington-"The fate of the
anti-Jim Grow travel bill is in
the hands Of Congressman Leo L.
Allen, chairman of the House
Rules Committee Clarence Nit
chell, director of the Washington
bureau of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, declared here this week.
The NAACP sponsored bill to
ban racial segregation in inter-
state travel has been favorably
acted upon by the House Com
merce Committee. Mr.. Mitchell
pointed out. The Republican-con-
trolled 83rd Congress will NOT
have another opportunity TO pass
any civil rights legislation, he
stated.
Even though the 83rd Congress
is nearing its end, the anti-Jim
Crow travel bill can be passed
by the House provided the Rules
Committee reports it out the
NAACP spokesman asserted. "Suc-

the bills chance in the Senate
where it has strong support.

Floyd Patterson. the high
ranking ELECTROMAGNETIC who
fights tomorrow night at Tur-
ner's Arena, has an interesting
comparison to make between am
ateur and pro fighters.
Patterson is a good authority
on both kinds Of fighting. His
amateur career. topped by the
Olympic middleweight cham
pionship, is not far behind him,
but the short span Of 10 pro
fights also has lifted him among
the worlds best 175-pounders.
The quiet 19-year-cld Brook
lyn boy still is a bit amazed at
how the pros pace themselves
and pick their punching spots.
Amateurs are fighting all the
time" he said, they have only
three rounds to do what they
have to do, and they're enthusi-
astic and throwing punches all
tIlC ILIIlC.
Pros Wait for Openings.
1.-THE pros are different,
though" he claims. Most of
them aren't pressing you all the
time. They wait for the openings
or try to make them. and a
fighter right out of the anna
teurs is liable to get careless.
You make one mistake and
you're in trouble. The pros may
not throw as many punches as
the amateurs, but when they do
they mean it, and they know a
lot more about fighting"
Most pro fighters do little talk
ing when their managers are
handy to do the talking for
them, and Patterson is no ex-
ception. Gus D'Amato does the
managing and talking for Pat
terson, and D'Amato has a time
table for his fighter that he

NEW YORK. Mar. 29.-An-
other series between the Harlem
>Globetrotters and a team of COL
lege all-stars is under way and
already apparent that it will be
the same as other such affairs
In the past.
The two main characteristics
Of this series in the past have
been Trotter victories and big
crowds.
The TrotterS always draw big
crowds, regardless of the oppo-
sition. A total of 1882 fans
watched the two games that
opened the series in Madison
Square Garden yesterday and
last night.
An afternoon audience Of
1928 watched the Globetrotters
win, 1910. The Trotters won
more easily at night. 69-57, be-
fore 15,139 fans.
That made 263 victories in a
row for the Trotters. but most
OF their games have been with
teams that didn't figure to be
much opposition. The last loss
by the famed Negro barnstorm-
ers was to the all-Star team in
this series last April.

''but 1t certainly will be great to

There was some question. how

Manager Steve O'Neill the re-

Carpenter said. "At the same

I'VE have four promising

lords, the Athletics, also COM
pleted o deal yesterday, sending
Catcher Ray Murray to the Bal
timore Orioles for an undisclosed
amount Of cash.
Several days ago an unnamed
PhillieS' spokesman remarked
rather petulantly that nobody
in baseball would have anything
to do with the club.
This came after Bob Carpen-
ter, club president, had tried un-
successfully to close several deals
during the winter. Carpenter
had made offers for the Cardi-
nails Solly Hemus, the Cubs Roy
Smalley, the Giants Bob Hof-
man and the Yankees Vic Raschi
among others. He was either
bypassed or turned down. Small
ley and Raschi. for instance,
were later traded to the Braves
and Cardinals, respectively.
Almost Misses Boat.
In General Manager Buzzy
Bavasi of the Dodgers he at last
found a sympathetic ear. Even
there, according to reports, Car
penter almost missed the boat.
Bavasi repeatedly had tried Sat-
urday to deal Morgan of to the
Cubs. In return he demanded
Outf1elder frankie Baumholtz.
Chicago said no.
The Phillies have been after
infield strength for some time.
Third Baseman Willie Jones has
not hit as we'll as was expected
when he broke in with the club
several years ago and Shortstop
Tex Kazanski is expected to don
Army khaki soon.
In Morgan the Phillies have a
27-year-old who has played all
infleld positions in three years
with Brooklyn. He batted .260
in SO games last year. In l949
he was named the most valuable
player in the international
League while leading that league
in batting.
Morgan Sees Opportunity.

close like that, this guy is rough"
He shook his head admiringly.
Maybe, suggested the onlooker,
Gavilan will have Bobos head
bobbing like a cork anytime he
tries to get close to the Cuban.
Bentley's eyes wiuened in dis
belief. This guy? This guy can
take punch. Everybody he ever
fought took a Sunday punch at
him. Never faxed him. You
think a little guy like Gavilan
can punch this guy around?"
Says Weight Will Decide.
What happens if the Kid
proves too fast for Olson, simply
outspeeds him?
Sure. Gavilan is fast. No
body says he isn't. He's a cutie.
He's a dancer. He might even
take over the first six. seven
rounds dancing around like that.
How long is he gonna keep it
up? Tell me that.
He can't keep away from this
guy forever. Along about the
time Gavilan gets a little tired,
then you watch Bobo. Whammo.
Like that"
Bentley tossed his black hair
defiantly.
You know what's really
gonna win thsi fight for Olson?"
He looked the disbeliever square,
ly in the eye. Then he raised his
hands, paused dramatically, and
licked off his fingers.
"One. two, three, four, five,
six, seven. eight.
"Gavilan 1872. Olson 100. Get
it? Eight pounds"
