clared.
Moreover, Mr.. wilkins added,
I'VE shall continue to use the Sc
lective buying technique, the
spending of our consumer income
with our friends rather than with
those hostile to us.
Action in the political field will
also be intensified, he asserted.
while attacking the segregated
housing policies that have forced
us into the center of urban areas,
we shall use political strength
that has come with such concen-
tration against all the enemies
of our aspirations, whether these
be from the Deep South or from

The NAACP leader found this
mood reflected by both our

The southern white liberal, Mr..
Dabbs asserted, is a victim of the
tradition of paternalism in race
relations. Blinded by that tradi-
ton, southern liberals find it hard,
he said, ito advocate the new de-

groes. They will change to some
degree as they become aware of
the Negro's changing temper
But l don't think you can depend
too much upon these people as a

they are very important; in the

Senator" Fullbright to come
along and surprise everyone
this year.
l wrote about the home run hit
ters, and Babe Ruth's record a.
while back. AS of last Thursday
the Big Ms, Mays, Mantle and
Maris were leading. Mantle had
hit his 36th, Maris had 35, and
Mays lead in the National League
with 81. Look for Willie to gain
even more.
And of course the last month is
going to be the toughest for the
top big hitters.
Pitchers are a proud lot They
don't like to be the guy who feeds
the home run stars the fat ones.
So, it'll get tougher and tougher.
=
Incidentally Ford Frick. COM
missioner of baseball made a rul-
ing that isn't going to help the
Big Ms break the Babes record.
Frick declared that any player
who hits more than so in the first
154 games shall be recognized as
having broken the record Ruth set
in 1927. If he hits go in the first
154 games, he shall be said to have
tied the record.
Before close off | want to add
that Charlie Austin should be the
state middleweight champion right
now. He'll fight and wants to fight
the top ranked boy-That is Mon
tano. But offers are coming in
from the West Coast and Texas.
Ted (Bear) Hutchinson wasn't irn-
pressed with Dave Furch or Floyd
Joyner. He'll fight either one-but
would rather have the champion
ship shot with Joyner right soon.
