iN THE REALM OF ...S POE T S.« St Augustine • Trounces Smith Raleigh, N. C., Jan. 18— (ANP)—The St. Augustine’s College Basketball team made its 1936 debut Friday night by trouncing Johnson C. Smith University 35 to 32 in an ex citing and fast game. Robin son, the Saint’s lanky forward and Kennedy, the center were high scorers for the game. Greenlee of the Queen Oitv team, making many spectacular shots, was the outstanding play er for his team. A the start of the game, Smith took a 6 to 0 Ipad by cirtue of 2 goals by Boyd and one by Eaton A quick dally by Robinson and Kennedy brought Ihe score to 19 to 10 in the Saint’s favor at the end of the half. The vis itors supplied some keen excite ment by running up the score to 32 to 35 when the final gun scorned to roh them of victory. I Necro Ts Standout In Golden Gloves Mo. Tournament Springfield, Mo., Jan. 18— (OP)—Latham McDaniels, 175 pound Negro, was the big standout in the Golden Gloves tournament of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat conducted here as the finishing touches were put upon the 54 boxers who participated in the Springfield unit eliminations for the thirty who will see day in the finals. On January 16, thirty more entrants will Ve for the tilt along with some of the win ners in the first elimination try. The finals will come off January 23 when the 16 suc cessful contestants will go to St. Louis to participate in the tourney of champions the mid dle of February. The entrants are under supervision of train er Ed Smith. In speaking of McDaniels, Smith says, “I*ve seen a lot of boxers around here, professional and amateur hut that kid, McDart'els, has! shown me enough to convince: me he's a natural fighter if I j ever saw one.” Another T Jon Tossed To The Christian Chicago, Jan., 18—Charley Retzlaff, who otherwise seems to be guite a normal young man has offered himself for public sacrifice at Chicago Stadium th's Friday, Jan. 17. Joe Louis is the person chosen to per form the rites. If nothing else, this proves that a man will do anything for money. I nthe time of the Caesars, for the amusement of the Ro man thousands they tossed out and watched the animals sharp en their teeth on the bones of Christians to lions in the arena the hapless humasn. Now and then a jungle beast would eith er get toothaehe or, if sensible, give up entirely on an especial ly tough case. Some cynics claim these were merely the or iginal hard-shelled Baptists who were aimed for heaven if they didn't drown enroute, but you can discount that as merely professional jealousy Besides, it lias little to do with this col umn. The big point is that Joe Louis, reputedly a deep and sin cere student of the Bible, has been reversing the procedure. In New York last June they tossed out a Roman offspring named Primo Camera, the Car nivorous, and may thousands saw the mammoth artlmal com pletely devoured by the Chris tian Brown Bomber Rotzlaff, next opponent for Christian Joe, falls in the "lion” cate gory when he says he’ll beat the Dusky Destroyer. That's as much lyin’ as you’ll see for many a day. When a professional boxer these days offers to get into the same ring with Mr. Joseph Louis Barrow, the heavyweight to en dall heavyweights, he ought to be looked upon as a mental oddity. Rotzlaff does not necessarily need the cash as the 27 year old white youth is worth $300,000 after six years of fighting. If the truth must be known, it is the same ambition tha made medieval alchemists seek a mythical "philosopher’s stone” which would turn everything it touch ed into gold—the accomplish ment of the impossible. Every boxer today knows that a victory over Joe would belong in the class of hiking from New York to London. There would be fame a.plenty,' and the mark is worth shooting X. That is, if you’re like Nathan Hale who was proud to give his one life for his country. When they fight Louis, those who say "I’d die for dear old Rutgers” get their wish. Jack Blackburn, who once trained Retzlaff ,admits the white boy is tongh. Charley, who stands six foot four and weighs 198 does have something of a punch. But for that matter, a couple of lads named Max Baer and Kingfish Lovinsky (whatever became of them!) could also hit. That means Ret zlaff, by his reputation, is mere ly making it harder on himself. Well, it’s his own funeral. If Charley wants to commit sui cide before several thousand ob servers, who am I to say him nay I A1 Duvall, the Loyola univer sity, Los Angeles ,tackle who was rated one of the best on the coast, eats on’y one meal a day. At 10 p. m., if ever you have him as a guest . . .Lorenzo Pack, 1935 Golden Gloves, heavyweight champ who has been knocking ’em right and left since turning pro, watched Joe Louis train recently for his bout Friday night. "What do you think of Joe!” he was ask ed, "Do you think you can lick lim! "Why not!” replied Pack. "Tie's human like I am.” Foresee Trouble Over N. Y. U. Court Star New York, Jan. 18—(ANP) —Howard Canu is receiving congratulations for the splendid basketball team he is develop at New York University—and because of the spectacular showing the team has made, he has been able to command his figure for the appearance of the varsity on the basketball cards which have taken New York by storm. However, breakers are ahead for Howard —for the star of his up and coming freshman team is Ed Williams, lanky colored center —'much in the order of George Gregory at Columbia. What will be the position of New York U’s team in 1936 and 1937 when it meets all of these nice teams from Dixie? Already, Kentucky has stated through a spokesman that the team rep resen in g that school does not participate in games where Ne groes are on the team, such clauses being inserted in the contracts it signs with oth> r schools. Yet Williams is the best for New York U’s team next year.
