Grabbing Coach
Predict Big Things
For Earnest Laid
By Collie J. Niehelsoa

Grambling, La--(Special) The
following prediction will surprise
a lot of folks and produce some
anguished bowls, but Coach Ed
die Robinson of Grabbing College
declares that the best lineman on
the 1861 College All-Star squad
will be his own Earnest Ladd.
Without the slightest hesitation,
Robinson says there won't be an
All-Star tackle even close to him
in all-round proficiency and ability.
The same could be said for size
as the GO 290-pound giant will be
the biggest man ON Coach Otto
Graham's talented squad. He wears
a size Is ZEE shoe.
However, size is not Ladd's only
asset. On the field his forte is rug
gedness and he is cuddlesome as a
man-eating tiger.
. Whenever there is a collision
that produces an unusual number
of decibles, Robinson AYERS that the
odds are twenty-to-one that Lit
tie Sampson" will have something
to do with it.
Ladd has a murderous defensive
charge and a rare ability to dag
nose plays
His fame has been confined
mostly to Southern small-college
circles where belabored coaches and
players avow that if he isn't All
American, then neither was Abe

Woman Teacher
Declares War On
Programs

Tuskegee, Institute, Aha Va.
State College homemaking profess
scr has declared war against gang
land television programs and other
entertainment that contribute to
Juvenile delinquency"
DIR. Mildred N. Jordan, director
of the School of Home Economics
at Va State, is calling on parents
to adopt supervision plan" that
would outlaw shoot 'em up" shows
on the television screen while chill
dren are watching.
Speaking during the Annual
Workshop for the Teachers of
Homemaking in Alabama, June 49,
%, DIR. Jordan challenged $50 dele
gates, who are closest to the
family" to accept the responsible
ty of setting the plan in motion.
The plan received 100 per cent"
endorsement, DIR. Jordan said.
Under DIR. Jordan's supervision"
plan, parents would select for their
children shows that carry the
theme of CLOSE, loving and
democratic family living" Pro-
grams she referred to as falling
under this category include Father
Knows Best" leave it to Beaver"
and Dennis the Menace" Educa-
tional programs would also receive
the stamp of approval, but gang
land and western shows would be
rejected.
Blaming gangster-type produc-
tons as large contributors to the
rise in juvenile delinquency, DR..
Jordan said many youngsters who
have brushed with the law, later
admit they did so because 81 saw
it on televisiOn last night"
Urging that parents file more
complaints" against programs that
are detrimental to the life of their
children" DR.. Jordan said parents
can do much to put an end to sun
desirable" programs. Parents"
said DIR. Jordan, must wake up to
the fact that they are responsible
for the type of programs on the
network"
Television programs are "com-
mercial," DIR. Jordan added, and
once sponsors discover their audi
ence is dwindling, these complaints
would be considered.
Another reason why 81 condemn
unsupervised television," said DIR.
Jordan, is that it rivals the study
time for school work, causing many
students to become weak academi-
cally. 4
Health is another aspect, she
pointed out, saying many children
remain awake late into the night
to see gangland shows. This means,
she explained, these children are de-
prived their proper rest.

The plea was brought on behalf
of Elizabeth Wycoff, As, a free
lance writer from Greenwich Vii

June 2 with an interracial group

In a hearing on the plea last
week Kunstler told Mize it was his
duty to issue the writ even though
Miss Wyckoff had not exhausted
her legal remedies in state courts.
"State courts are not going to be
of any assistance to her." he said.
Attorney Tom Watkins of Jack
son, arguing for the state, claimed
that issuance of such a federal
writ would "pervert the entire
system of state courts"
Watkins said Kunstler was
wrong in claiming Miss Wyckoff
would not get a fair hearing in
Mississippi courts and he said
Kunstler owed IAN apology to the

credited with the tight defensive
scheme that enabled Grambling to
post q 81 record last season.
HE made so many solo tackles it

said.
Robinson extols his offensive
work rs equally stunning.
"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."
The Orange, Texas native has
explosive speed for a big man, pur-
sues the ball tenaciously, requires
blockers on plays which don't come
his way and is able to veer his
angle without the loss of speed or
power.
Ladd is the only small-college
player on the An-Star squad.
He will play with the San Diego
Chargers of the American Football
League this fall
Charger Coach Sid Gilman said
Everybody who has seen Ladd
tells me he is the finest football
player ever to come out of that
area. Based on what I've seen of
him in game movies, I'd have to
agree.
"Grambling is the Louisiana col
lege that produced Paul Tank
Younger for the Los Angeles Rams
and Willie Davis of the Green Bay
Packers"
Ladd's huge frame is going to
look nightly impressive to the
Philadelphia Eagles on Aug. 4.

one-quarter damaged and his men
tality is that of a 10-to-12-year-old,
child, according to psychiatrists
who examined him recently for

hearing last week at which Saxton
waived extradition to New York
City where he is charged with a
variety store burglary The burg
larry, police said, netted him just
$500, a fur cape, and a package
of cigarettes.
During his boxing career, Sax

$3.50, 900.
Saxton was committed to the
New Jersey State hospital at An
cora last year after attempting
suicide in a Jail cell at Atlantic
City. At the time he was being
held on a charge of burglary at
the resort town.
Two weeks ago the psychiatrists
adjudged him sane and able to
stand trial.
With his ring fortune gone, Sax
ton is in the same position as
Henry Armstrong, the former
triple = crowned featherweight,
lightweight and welterweight
champion, and Beau Jack, former

of the New York Yankees
denied today that he was plac-
ing Pitcher Ryne Duren on the
trading block for breaking
training rules, but he left the
door open for a swap.
It was disclosed yesterday
by Duren himself, no less-that
Duren had been hit with a $3.50
fine for "straying off the reser-
vation" here two weeks ago.
There were several versions
Of what actually happened, but
neither Houk nor Duren was
talking. A Yankee official said
the reason-on-record for the
fine was breaking training
and coming in after curfew."
"Duren definitely is not on
the trading block because of
the incident" Houk said. But
by the same token, there is no
denying that we are trying to
make trades. With the excep-
ton of a few players, we might
trade anyone on the club If we
think it will help the Yanks. :"
