flowed onto the parking lot out
side, eager in their anticipation Of
his appearance.
While his enthusiastic followers
sang and clapped their hands In
unison, casting side glances Of con-
tempt at the unsmiling white po-
ncemen on hand TO maintain order,
white reporters from unfriendly
white papers tried-with loaded
questions - to lead him into q
statement that would confirm their
contention that he advocates VOL
ence.
I pushed my way into the circle.

supreme court decision opening
swimming pools to all races?" I
asked introducing myself and

He smiled. shook my hand and
said: We're looking forward to
the day when we can swim in
Legco together"
His meaning was clear. We want,
he was saying, to be accorded our
rights as human beings and our
privileges as citizens. We want
universal suffrage and rule by the
majority. We don't want the bones
In the form Of social privileges. We
hunger for the meat Of full par
ticipation in our government and
dominion over ourselves. Wen
make our own gravy Of social
equality from the essence Of the
meat we crave.
From the bones on the floor to
the meat on the table is a long dis
lance, especially here.
First Of all, the federal prime
minister, Sir Roy Welensky - who
is serving - is not likely to give
Southern Rhodesia's 2,s70, 900 Afri-
cans much more than bones, unless
it will help prevent him from being
dislodged from his commanding
seat at the head OF the table.
In the second place, the 225, 900
Europeans-now feasting sumptu-
ously - are not inclined to volun-
tarily move aside to make room at
the table for the hungry Africans.
even though there's plenty to go
around, and the Africans through
their labor have made the feast
possible.
Even the bones the Africans get
are not meaty and succulent. They
are dried out, lack marrow and
have jagged edges.
What does 1t mean to have the
right to live In an expensive hotel
when your home is a one-room hut
and you're forced to share sanitary
facilities with so other families?
It means very little to be able
to ride integrated on a train once
or twice In a lifetime, when after
a long days work, a half-empty
white" bus passes you by and you
must wait for an overcrowded AZ
rican" bus to get home.
There's little to applaud when
you can attend an integrated white

the Deep South.
In front Of $4,000, plus other
thousands on TV, North and South,
this was footballs comment on the
race subject.
1t wasn't a lawyers argument
or theory before a Supreme Court
panel. It was a clearcut victory of
mind and muscle-with the en-
phasis on brains-irrespective of
color. It was the definitive answer
to a nagging modern question: Can
a Negro quarterback lead a team
Of white men successfully?
And it was, plenty, smart foot
ball.
The next question is this: Can
a Negro lead a white pro team
successfully? The sports fan would
hope to see Stephens with Cleve-
land next season for this and one
other reason. He is a fine pro pros
pect.
Weighing 212, he is a fearless
runner and a good enough passer
with an intelligent grasp of foot
ball. Stephens could be the quarter
back Paul Brown has waited for
since he lost Otto Graham.
Sandy Meshed The Team
AS Dwain Esper noted in Tues
days Examiner Stephens solved a
fourth-quarter problem in the Rose
Bowl with the wisdom of a pro
quarterback.
When baked on UCLA's 22-yard
line, on third and IL, Stephens dis
tributed the Gophers in a pro for
nation, with two wide flankersr
and threw a 14-yard pass.

ask who is Lucas? Well, some 80
years ago rosey-cheeked Jack box
ed under the name Of Jackie Clark

AS I was saying 80 years ago
he took the advice Of his friends
and moved West in Los Angeles
and has been a success since.
He is owner of the Austin Studios

Cafe Thof Refused
Service To Paige.
forum Drop Boz

Wichita, Kan. (ANP) - Owner
of a downtown lunch counter, Har-
~ M. Baum, who made headlines
by refusing to serve Satchel Paige,
baseball star and Reece Goose
Tatum) in his place decided to
drop his discrimination program
after a talk with Keith Sanborn,
Sedgwick County attorney, who In
formed him Of the Kansas civil
rights law.
At first Baum was firm In re-
fusing to serve the Negro cele-
b1ties, then relented to serving
them but refusing others.
Paige and Tatum were guests at
Wichita's finest hotel, the Lassen,
and had no trouble in being served
there. However, they heard Baum'S
had good corned beef sandwiches
and went there to get some. The
waitress told them they could get
only carry-out service.
When Baum told a Wichita po-
lice officer he was closing the place
he was informed when he reopened
he'd have to serve everybody.
Tatum said this was the first
time in nine years he had been re-
fused service In Wichita because
Of his color.
Because Of Baum's change Of
heart the county attorney said no
charges would be preferred against
him.

I'll tell you why:
Reading the North Minneapolis
Post Zone of the publications he
edits) it didn't take one long to
love his style of writing and his
fair play regardless Of ones color
or creed.
Years ago when the North side
had its problems among its many
races and creeds-it was Sonny
who took leadership with his re-
spected editorials and fought tooth
and nail for what he considered
humanity right. He had the re-
spect Of our leading citizens and
they too joined the fight.
Sonny Sonnesyn is newspaper
man who calls 'em as he sees
them-and has the courage of a
tiger. Right or wrong even on the
political score, those who have dis
agreed with him still call him a
friend.
I doubt If there is a person in
the North Suburban area who
doesn't know him and love him.
Sonny is and has always been
an honest man. The politicians
who always sought his support
didn't come near him unless they
in themselves knew that they were
honest.
His first newspaper job came at
the age of ID when he worked for
the late George A. Etzell, at Clar-
ISIS, Minnesota, in 1914. Before he
landed in Robbinsdale, he owned a
paper at Bertha (the Herald) and
later worked for newspapers in
Ironwood, Mich, Long Prairie,
Mimi, and the Duluth Free Press

RAMS SIGN BOB SMITH,
UcLA QUARTERBACK

Los Angeles (ANP) - Bob
Smith, tan quarterback who kicked
a field goal for his teams only
score in the Bruins 21-3 loss to
Minnesota in the Rose Bowl on
New Years Day, has been signed
by the Los Angeles Rams Of the
National Football League.
Smith, who can play both quar-
terback and halfback, was among
tan players signed last week by
the Rams from among the pro
teams IL draft choices Of 1861.
Smith did an outstanding job
quarterbacking UCLA against the
vastly superior Minnesota squad,
led by another tan quarterback,
Sandy Stephens.
Stephens was drafted by the
Cleveland Browns, but has not yet
signed a pro contract. There Is
some speculation that he will cast
his lot with the Browns.

NBA May Allow
Elgin Baylor To
Play Weekends

Los Angeles (ANP) - Elgin
Baylor, star Of Los Angeles Lakers
who was indicted into the Army
recently, may get chance to play
with the team on week-ends, If
owners in the National Basketball
Assn. approve a request by the
Lakers.
Lakers' Coach Fred Schaus an
nounced that the team has asked
the MIA owners to allow Baylor
to play on that part-time basis. He
explained that there is an MIA
rule against this wild-card type of
player, but he said the owners can
vote in favor of Baylor playing if
they want to.
Schaus said it is a question of
money or victories. With Baylor
gone, the other teams have a bet
ter chance of beating the Lakers,
but if Elgin continues playing the
teams will draw more at the gate,
he stated.
If the move is approved, Baylor
could obtain weekend passes to
play with the Lakers, as football
star Bobby Mitchell did with the
Cleveland Browns.
Schaus said that under the ar
rangement Baylor would be able to
play 'in as many as Is Of our last
39 games"
Baylor is the leagues No. 2
scorer with a Appoint average.

Cubs George Altman
Gets Salary Boost

SGIS SoIoEv BOOST
Chicago CAMP - Big George
Altman, the Chicago Cubs most
successful performer last season,
became the first player to sign
with the team and received a boost
in salary, according to club vice
president John Holland.
Holland would not disclose the
amount of Altman's 1862 salary,
but said he received a very de-
served boost" in his new contract.
Evidentally, with his great all
around performance last season,
Altman had little trouble getting
Cubs brass to come to terms.
The teams leading batter with a
mark of 1903, George also was the
Wrigleys' RIB king, with a total
of 90. He also hit 27 homers and IL
triples and also led Cubs sluggers
with a $50 average.
A graduate of Tennessee State
university in Nashville, Tenn, Alt
man starred in basketball as well
as baseball in college.
He is a native of Goldsboro,
NC, but makes his home in Chi
cago, where he is presently en-
rolled in the stock brokerage train
ing program of levine & F1shman
company. He is married and has a
two-year-old daughter, Laura.

subsequently his second Of a
21-3 game was described by
UCLA's coach Bill Barnes as the
turning point"
Physically, Sandy had it. But his
most memorable contribution was
his leadership-the plays he chang
ed on the line Of scrimmage to
cope with UCLA's shifting de-
lenses, and the way he meshed the
white boys in a strong assault that
won.
Those who saw it won't soon
forget it.
An interesting new offense is
now open to Cleveland. With a
backfield of Jim Brown, Ernie
Davis and Stephens, the Browns
can run with perhaps more power
and versatility than any pro club
ever.
Davis was the most exciting ball
carrier on view during the long
winter weekend, except for Horn
ung. Brown is the class of the NIL.
Stephens has speed and unusual
durability for a quarterback, and
he can handle the simple assort-
ment Of passes that would do in
ground-keyed offense.
Was 1t Brown Or Graham?
Paul Browns downspin in recent
years, with Milt Plum at quarter
back, has been an eyebrow-raising
fact of life in the NIL. Was Brown
the miracle man of Clevelands
big years? Or was it Graham?
Thinking it over, Paul may be
ready to make a new start with
a rookie, Stephens.
The Rams, in a downspin, too,
are almost surely aiming to play
their next season with a rookie as
the No. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Cab
riel or Ron Miller, their two young
draft choices.
Gabriel lost Saturday but exhib-
tied the traits of a pro quarter
back. Specifically, he STOOD in"
under heavy pressure and concen-
trated on his target, throwing &C
curately.
Coach Bob Waterfield has sched-
uled the 1862 summer season as a
laboratory for Gabriel and Miller.
The winner will start the league
season. Zeke Bratkowsk will be in
reserve. Frank Ryan will be Of
fered in trade. These are the long
range plans.
AS quarterbacks, Stephens and
Gabriel have some similiarities
Both have the strength and size to
Withstand the red-dog punishment
that grows yearly more severe.
Both are armed for the long pass.
Both are leaders. Gabriel won
San Francisco captaincy last week
in an election that might tell some
thing about the difference between
him and Miller. Stephens won a
game with leadership. This achi-
evement, by this particular boy,
stands with any in the history of
the Rose Bowl.
