Sugar Chile
Robinson Now
Pre-med Student

OLIVET, Mich, Aug. 2O.-Re-
member "Sugar Chile" Robinson,
the boogie-woogie, piano-player of
the postwar years? Whatever
happened to him?
Sugar Chile, who, at the ripe old
age of Is, quit the entertainment
business in favor of college edu-
cation, is now a pre-med student
at tiny Olivet College here and
wants to make a comeback in the
public eye as "Dr." Frank Robinson.
Two years ago it was that Sugar
Chile walked out of the entertain
ment spotlight with, at his young
age, veritable fortune in $780,
900 Tin trust fun to become man
of medicine.
Before that, for some nine or ten
years, he had captivated audiences
throughout the world with his
somewhat unorthodox piano style.
Truly a child prodigy, Sugar
Chile could read at the age of two;
and by the time he was three years
old, could play most of the popular
songs he had heard-but because
CT his very young years, was re-
duced to striking the keys with his
fists and elbows, because he was
not strong enough to use his fin
gers.
At the age of six, he won an
amateur talent contest, and that
was the beginning of nine fruitful
years in the entertainment world.
He played his last engagement
at a Chicago night club in 1855,
and then went after that college
education he desirer so much.

heights to which he rose in his

Ralph Dupas Asks
For White Birth
Certificate

New Orleans, La, Aug. 20
Ralph Dupas, the No. a lightweight
boxing contender, filed suit in civil
district court today, demanding
that the city issue a birth certifi-
cate listing him as a white.
Louisiana law forbids bouts be-
tween white and Negro boxers.
Dupas has fought all his Orleans
bouts against white fighters. But
the Louisiana State Athletic Com
mission recently ruled it would
sanction no more of these fights
until Dupas produces a birth GER
tificate stating he is white.
The commission acted after a
woman told members that Dupas
was born and registered in ad-
joining St. Bernard Parish (coun-
ty) as Ralph Duplesis, a Negro.
Dupas, in his suit, said his par
ents, Peter Dupas and Evelyn Foto,
were married in st. Bernard Dec.
%, 1881. He said he was raised a
white, attended New Orleans white
schools and had brothers and sis
tiers who had birth certificates
identifying them as white.
At a commission hearing, Dupas'
attorney had told members the
boxer did not have a birth certifi-
cate because his mother gave birth
while attended by a midwife who
did not register the child.
Judge Oliver P. Carriere has or
dered a hearing next Monday when
the city health department and the
registrar of births must show
cause why Dupas should not be
issued a white certificate.
The question of Dupas' race
arose in March just before his fight
with Vince Martinez. The commits
sion refused to halt the bout, say
ing there was no evidence to justi-
fly resembling it's permit for the
fight. But after the fight, the
commission said it would issue no
more permits for Dupas fights un-
til the birth certificate was pro-
duced.

Raid Reflects Distrust

Currently considered for leader
ship CT the movement is the pres
ident of the existing African Youth
League, James Robert d. Chike-
rewa, former insurance salesman
who now ekes out a meager ex-
istence running the Youth League
full time. He has spent eight
year in South Africa where he was
educated in Roman Catholic insti-
tutions.
The Southern Rhodesian Gov
eminent is skeptical cf the pro-
jected organization, and Mr.. Chik-
erewa's lieutenant and vice-presi-
dent of the Youth League, George
B. Nyandoro, already has had the
premises of his African secretarial
business raided by white police de-
tectives apparently seeking to link
him with intimidation of African
drivers and conductors breaking a
recent bus strike in Salisbury.
Southern Rhcdesia's Prime Min
lister, R. S. Garfield Todd, has
warned Of directing brains" behind
the new movement. This has been
taken as reference to liberal ele-
ments in the British Labor Party.
Though deploring what he terms
the emergence of "racialistic
organization" Mr.. Todd has said
that the government will not inter
fere with it as long as there is
mo subversive activity or any
kind of threatening behavior to-
ward those who may not agree with
the promoters of this organiza-
ton" Mr.. Todd has promised that
in the event CT intimidation or
provocation the government will

The new African National Con-
gress of Southern Rhodesia, as the
party will be called, will be open
in, theory to anyone subscribing to
it's policies but in practice will be
an African organization. It will
campaign for the complete aboli-
ton of racial discrimination and
immediate universal adult suffrage
irrespective of color.
This latter demand follows close
ly on the introduction of new fran
chise proposals in the federal and
Southern Rhodesian Pariiaments
both of which are white controlled.
Both sets of proposals include GER
tain checks and balances to retain
the respective parilaments in the
hands of "civilized men," which in
practice will preclude the majority
of Africans from gaining major
say in either parliament for some
years at the minimum.
Southern Rhodesia has been de-
void of any real African political
organization on a national basis
for some years. Apart from Ken
va, where Africans political ac-
tivity is still strictly regulated.
Southern Rhodesia is the only
country between South Africa
through British Africa to Uganda
lacking an African national con-
gress or nationalist movement
the major African political organ
in each territory. The congress or
freedom movement varies from
territory to territory and has not
acted yet in continent-wide con-
cert. But the approach is Africa
for the African" not in all cases
banning outright election of the
white minorities but certainly en-
visaging ultimate control by the
African races, which in all Afri-
can countries greatly outnumber
whites. And the gap in Southern
Rhodesia presumably will be filled
now by the party to be formed.
Nucleus of it will be the exist
ing African Youth League conferred
in Salibury which is expected to
merge with the still existent branch
in Bulawayo of a new defunct
African Congress. Although the
fundamentals and policy of the
new organization, which have been
drafted already, state that it
stands for national unity irrespec-
tive of color and is opposed to
radicalism, much will depend on
its choice of leadership.
Some observers believe that if
it can temper its expected mill
fancy with a certain moderation
and gain at least some white sup
port it could evolve into a true
liberal party which Southern Rho
. desia could use. Others believe
it is destined to become fiery
and extreme African nationalistic
organization without influence

S. African Bishop
Calls Apartheid
A heresay

London, Eng, Aug. 19-South
Africa's racial segregation policy
was denounced here last week by
the Right Rev. Ambrose Reeves,
Anglican Bishop of johannesburg.
He called it zone of the great and
terrible heresies of the modern
world"
Bishop Reeves, who has opposed
apartheid in South Africa for many
years, spoke at service at the
Church of St. Martins in the
Fields.
He said the church had con-
sistently opposed the effort "to
force human life into this straight
jacket of sectarianism." Conse-
quently the church would ignore
the South African Government s
efforts to enforce new law that
would prevent white and Negro
persons from worshiping together,
he added
In South Africa, he asserted,
There is a rising sense of bitter
ness and resentment and fear in
the minds and hearts of most of
our African people, all of which
bodies i'll for human relations in
the future"
