Hope Of Title Shot Spurs
Williams in Fight Here

Johnny Williams, former Brit
ish heavyweight champion, will
be making his second invasion
OF this country when he fights
Hurricane jackson at Uline
Arena Friday. April Is, and this
time Williams comes prepared
to go all the way to title fight.
Rocky Marciano is Williams
main objective, but first he must
get past Jackson, the unortho-
dox swinger who is rated as No.
2 contender for the title. Goldie
Ahearn, who is promoting the
April 10 fight here in conjunc-
ton with the International Box
ing Club. says he has a promise
from IBC officials that the Will
liams-Jackson winner will get a
fight with Marciano.
With that as an incentive,
Williams is ready to make the
Jackson fight a big one. In
charge of his strategy in Mana
ger Ted Broadribh. the man who
brought Tommy Farr to this
country for a 15-round stand
against Joe Louis when Louis as
champion was knocking out
other fighters with monotonous
regularity. Also in the party will
be Jack Solomons, the London
fight promoter.
One Time British Champion
Williams came to this country
once before with title ambitions,
but something didn't jell right
and he went back after only one
fight. He was British champion
at the time. in 1852. and had one
fight here with Jimmy Rouse.
He stopped Rouse in eight, but
returned to England without
getting the shot at the world
title.
There wasn't room for him in
the picture right then, as Jer-
sey Joe Walcott just had beaten
Ezzard Charles for the second
time and Marciano was next in
line.
Williams no longer is British
champion, having lost that title
to Don Cockell, but otherwise
he's doing very we'll. Since the

Hunt Races

TRAVILAH, Nd, Mar. 81
(SpeciaD .-Point-to-point rae
ing has needed a fourth for
bridge in recent weeks. Two to
three starters has been the rule
in recent races. The annual
Potomac Hunt meeting here to-
day carried on this coy tradi-
ton.
The junior point-to-point run
for the Bloody Mary Bowl, pre-
sented by Mr.. and Mrs. Newbold
Noyes, jr., was a truly family
affair. Mike and Ellie McConihe,
the children OF Mr.. and Mrs. F.
Moran McConihe. made up two
thirds of the field. The other
third was Donnie Buchanan on
Upper, small pony scarcely
cooled out after winning the
pony race.
The young McConihes galloped
around the course exchanging
the lead here and there. At
the wire, Ellie McConihe and
Blonde led by a head. Mike
was second on San Bar and the
tiny Upper, nipping at the heels
of the bigger horses all through
the race, finished fastest of all.
The novice race and the Po-
tomac Hunt Bowl were merged
after only one novice horse
showed up on the wind-swept
hillside of Judge Richmond B.
Keech's Farm.
Four went away from the post
in the combined event and soon
were out of sight behind the
woods. When they reappeared
Valentine Wilson on Sun Glow
was well. in the lead, followed
by William BarnSley on Field
Gun. Sam Bogley and Shady
Lady showed up next, and the
three finished in that order,
Mrs. Richard Duckett on Trim
kett was belated fourth after
a nonchalant gallop around the
course.

sonnet for wildlife management;
to conduct wildlife research, and
to promote wildlife education.
During 1855 there were 275 re-
search programs conducted, Of
which 48 were concerned with
migratory waterfowl, 40 with
fisheries and others with studies
of wildlife species. habitat and
management problems. 1t Is a
splendid program.
We've had several inquiries
about the cost of licenses for
fresh water fishing in North
Carolina, now that bass fishing
along the coast is coming into
full season. Those nonresi-
dents under IL years of age
require no permit. Non-resi-
dents over IL can buy a one-day
permit for 81, five-day for $3.50
and one year for $6.10.

in an effort to bring back boar

once were numerous in this

We've been checking to find
out what's doing in the way of
local fishing and find things
pretty dull. Unless we get some

temperatures, it is liable to con-

In browsing through the most
recent Bulletin of the Sport
Fishing Institute we were pleased
with the contents of a certain
paragraph. 1t was to the effect
that on January l the State of
Oregon has outlawed the excess
sive commercialization of sport
fishing derbies. Henceforth in
dividual fish awards in that
State are limited to $25 or less
and they must be awards of
merit in the form of some kind
of memento or trophy: cash
prizes and expensive trophies
can no longer be offered. Some
.of our Southern States might
well follow this example. 1t is
common practice to have new
automobiles and large cash
prizes offered to draw partici-
pants to this or that locality,
resulting in an onslaught out

the nature of mental illness and the ways that
the mentally i'll behave.
Ignorance is not limited to the general pub
lie. Physicians and other professionals such as
the clergy, the police. teachers and nurses are
the first to have contact with emotional dis
turbance and could discover it more promptly if
they knew enough about it to recognize it.
A person manifeSting extreme tension is told,
YOU'RE just worried" If he is unable to heed
the advice to stop worrying, he is told, why
don't you go to Florida for two weekS?'
People who continue to have pain after a
physical examination has shown nothing are
told, There's nothing wrong = it's jHSf pSy-
choSomatic."
The child who refuses to go to school, the
housewife who has constant crying spells, the
business executive who is never able to relax for
a moment night or day = these behaviors are
regarded as merely personal limitations or as
something the individuals will get over in time.
Danger: 'Parlor Psychologists"
Well-meaning friends urge such people to
change their ways. To tell depressed woman
she should enjoy herself and be more cheerful is
something like the piece Of camphor children
them from polio. At least the camphor did no
harm. But to urge seriously depressed person
to be happy may be harmful
While ''parlor psychologists" can be dan
gerous, everyone should learn to recognize emo
tional distress as something warranting concern
and possible medical attention.
How is the average person to recognize an
emotional or mental illness when he is con-
fronted with it? Unfortunately, there are no
clear and definite means of determining the
degree of psychological illness. There is nothing
comparable to the l02 registered on the Their
mometer that tells you that you have fever.
In emotional illnesses it's impossible to say
whether people who talk, think, feel, behave in
these ways are sick or are not sick For instance,
depression is a common symptom Of mental ill
ness. But everyone gets depressed at times -
the mentally healthy as well as the mentally i'll.
It's matter of degree, and also whether the
depression is for sufficient cause, or for little or
no apparent reason.
Some Fear Is Healthy
Fear is another example. To show or have
fear when faced with danger is both healthy and
necessary for survival; to have fear when no
danger exists is sickness. But fear is not always
a symptom of mental illness; this depends on
who is experiencing it, and why, and for how
long,
But ii is possible to describe in general terms
the equivalent of 1922 temperature that calls for
medical attention. When a person becomes
immobilized for long period of time without
apparent physical cause = unable to continue
doing whatever he has done in the past, 60 to

It's easy to accept mental illness when it's the
fellow next door or the girl in the Office. But
when it's your own child, your own brother,
your own wife or yourself = it's harder.
Part of this is due to fear to a resist
ance to acknowledging anything so frightening;

1.-THE home, the family, mar
riage and family life, are the basic
factors of successful relations
among human beings" That was
only one of many common sense
statements made Sunday after
noon at st. John Baptist Church.
The speaker was the Rev. Rob
bins Raj 9h, superintendent OF
Florida Congregational Christian
Conference of Avon Park. The
occasion was program number two
in the current 26th annual winter
forum series sponsored by the
King of Clubs, Inc. Another large
and appreciative crowd was pres
ent.
Speaking upon the subject,
Preparing For Life'S Greatest
Adventure" which is marriage,
Rev. Ralph described a religious
view of sex and marriage as
stated in the book of Genesis in
the Holy Bible.
The speaker Listed four major
points for happy relationship of
sex. The points are (1) privacy;
~ comfort and leisure; (3) clear
conscience, and az respect for
each other. The Rev developed
each point to an extent and gave
some common sense advice on
each one.
Throughout his unusual adj
dress, Rev. Ralph cited example
after example of the best ways
and means of developing a sue
cesSful and happy marriage.
In closing he emphasized the
fact that love and marriage go
together Like a horse and car
riage.' You can't have one with
out the other. Rev. Ralph also
sang a chorus of that popular
song in which that thought is
beautifully brought out.
1t was a fine address and was
well received by a most apprec-
iative audience.
Music for the occasion was
furnished by the George Wash
ington Carver High School Choir

Florence Amos. The speaker was
