Coach Coils GrambIing
Player Best uineman
On AII-SfoP Tam,

Grambling, La. (ANP) - The
only small-college player on the
College All-Star football team that
will battle the world champions
Philadelphia Eagles at Chicago
Aug. has been called the best
lineman on the squad and possibly
in the nation, by his former coach,
Eddie Robinson of Grambling col
lege.
Ernie Ladd, according to Robin
son, is a coach's dream player.
The SO, 29O-pound tackle is as
rugged as they come, and fast for
a big man. He is the biggest man
on the All-Star team.
Called Little Samson" because
Of his bulldozer tactics, Ladd has
been credited with being largely
responsible for the Grambling
Tigers 81 record last season. Lis
ten to what Coach Robinson had
to say about him:
He made so many solo tackles
it became monotonous."
"Ladd is an excellent blocker
along the line of scrimmage, on
trap plays and straight-ahead
thrusts. He is highly competitive
and has a lot Of football savvy."
Grambling is the team that pro-
duced Paul Tank" Younger for
the Los Angeles Rams and Willie
Davis of the Green Bay Packers.
Ladd and the rest Of the ALI
Stars are undergoing training at
Dyche Stadium on the Northwes-
tern university campus.
A native of Orange, Tex, Ladd,
upon graduation from Grambling,
signed a professional football con-
tract with the San Diego Chargers.

Discovers Negroes
Con Afford Homes

Great Neck, Long Island (ANP)
Suddenly made aware of the tre-
mendous impact which integrated
living would have the many ma
tons delegates at the United Ma
tions, and because Of the high
incidence of Negro domestic work.
ers in the area, the Great Neck
community has launched a pro-
gram to encourage prospective Ne
gro home buyers to live in the
community.
Prime mover behind this pro-
gram is the Great Neck Committee
for Human Rights, founded some
nine months ago to investigate
"all aspects of our interracial re-
lations - jobs, schools, employ
ment, housing"
The net results Of the investiga-
ton disclosed that all Of the i'll
relating to racial relations were
traceable to housing. 1t learned, to
its surprise, that Negroes Of ample
means had never been encouraged
to live in other parts Of Great
Neck where housing such as they
could afford was available.
The upshot of this was that the
committee began to seek out those
Negroes interested in living in the
better areas Of Great Neck, and
letting them know Of the avail
ability Of homes for which they
were able to pay. AS a result, more
than 80 houses have now been
formally listed for sale, without
regard to the buyers color.
At least one has been rented for
the summer, one has been sold out
right, and two are nearing the pro
cess of completion, and all are to
Negroes.

George AItman's
Success Story

Chicago (ANP) - It has been
said time and again, you can't tell
how the ball will bounce.
For George Altman, outfielder
for the Chicago Cubs, it has bounc-
ed just right this season.
This is Georges third season
with the National League team
and he has finally established him
self as a star. In 1859, he was good
enough to be voted the teams
rookie of the year and he saw in
termittent action last year, being
handicapped by knee injuries.
This season, at the outset, he
had a back seat in the Cubs
scheme of things. But that didn't
keep the former Tennessee A & L
athletic great from hustling and
when he got a chance in the start
ing lineup, he made the most of it.
When the teams took a midsea-
son break for the all-star game,
Altman was batting second in the
National League, trailing Roberto
Clemente, of the Pittsburgh Pr
ates. Clemente had a percentage
Of .357, compared to .349 for Alt
man.
Worked Hard; Made Good
Selected as a sub for the all
star team representing the senior
league, Altman also contributed
his bit. Called on in the eighth as
a pinch hitter, Altman delivered
in grand style - cracking out a
home run on the first pitch, deep
into the right field stands.
AS mentioned previously, Alt
man was something of a forgotten
man in the Cubs outfield plans
last spring and was a bench warm
er when the season opened.
HE never once complained" ,"
says Harry Craft, one of the sew
eral coaches on the team He
kept right on hustling to the hilt.
He was the first one on the field
every day and the hardest worker.
He was simply biding his time and
waiting for his chance in the line
up"
Altman in 277 times at bat has
collected 90 hits, including IT home
runs. In his hottest stretch, George
hit safely in 26 of 80 games. 1t was
this stirring performance at the
plate that earned him the distinc-
ton as the MI player Of the
month, edg1ng out Willie Mays for
the honor.
Altman Is a self-made player" d"
says head coach El Tape, another
Of the Cubs coaches, "and no one
ever worked harder to improve or
to keep in condition"
Fielding Also Improves
Altman has always been like
that" according to Charlie Grimm.

have actually seen the duck
do it.
Or the mountain lion stories
that occur in Iowa, Missouri

can a mountain lion live in
