SPORTS AND STUFF By JOE STATON This writer is grateful for the opportunity to report on the activ– ities of Negro athletes in every sport from ping-pong -to football, in a manner becoming to himself. Here's hoping you "cats" will en– joy this righteous spiel and notice that the "Gimmet is deep in the swirrelly." When Iowa plays Washington, this little brown brother will be there "when the bell rings." It will be a grelllt day when big-foots Charlie Russell and bigger-foots Homer Harris meet on an end around or somethin'. Boy! Oh! Boy! Here's hoping that one or the other wins. Mr. AI Hostak had better not ease up to Mr. Allen Mathews and expect the aforenamed gentleman to not lay those dynamite lefts and rights on his pretty pink chin. If matters are not changed, ac- cording to Hoyle, Hostak should rest in peace about the 7th or 8~h round. Sure wish little Ray Price had money behind him. The kid will go a long way if handled by a person really interested in him. Wonder where Brennan King is? Your Home ELECTRICALLY * * Electric Modern Cookery.

Page will wind up before one realizes it the ball has passed. Sometimes he winds up and then again some– times he doesn't. Batters who hit Page generally never take a prac– tice swing. Critics claim Page to be one of the best in the world, too. People of the East are trying their best to open professional baseball to Negro Athletes. The other sports have no color bar. Why should baseball? The Negro All-Stars generally play an All– Star Big League white team in the winter and the Negroes have won more than their white opponents.
