Players ignore
PiekefS BUT Ecns
oYcoff Come

San Francisco (ANP) - Fol-
lowing their pre-game announce
ment to play in the game, Negro
players on the San Francisco 49ers
football team ignored the requests
Of the Congress of Racial Equali-
ty (CORE) and the NAACP to
boycott the 4sers-washington Red
skins game here Sunday (sept.
10.
The local chapters Of CORE and
the NAACP had asked the nine
tan players not to cross picket
lines to play in the game because
the Redskins have never hired q
Negro player.
The nine players played In the
game, which the 49ers won by a
score Of 35 to 8.
Abe Woodson. spokesman for
the players, defended their decis-
ion by saying This Is different
from situations where there are
segregated audiences and things
like that" He apparently was re-
ferring to segregating seating,
such as Is the policy at the Hous-
ton Oilers home games.
A week earlier IL Negro players
on the Oakland Raiders team were
also asked to boycott the Houston
Raiders game because Of the seq
regated seating but they, too, ig-
nored the request and played in
the game. The spokesman for the
Oakland team at that time was
George Fleming. former star Of
the University Of Washington.
While the IL tan players played
in the game. however, Negro fans
a. q whole boycotted the game.
Only % out Of an approximate city
population Of $4,000 Negroes at
tended the game.
The picketing and boycott tech
niques now have been used In q
series Of games dating back to the
Baltimore Colts-P Pittsburgh Steel
ers game last month. When Negro
players were asked not to play in
that game because Negro fans
were to be segregated In Victory
Stadium in Roanoke, Va, Gene
big Daddy Lipscomb Of the
steelers won wide acclaim for
stating courageously that II can't
so against my race"
The NAACP later withdrew the
boycott request following a con-
ference with team officials and
sponsors Of the game because the
game was a charity affair bene-
fitting members Of all races.
