Joe Louis Goes To <
Watch Golden Gloves
Detroit, Mich., Feb. 19—Joe
Louis is getting fat and likes
it. The young Negro heavy
weight. here to visit his mother
and attend the Detroit Golden
Gloves boxing tournament, said
Wednesday he is enjoying his
vacation from the ring by “just
catching up on my chicken eat
ing”.
“I’m six or seven pounds over
my fighting weight right now,”
Louis said. “I want to be about
215 pounds when I start train
ing April 15 for my fight some
time next June with Max
Schmeling. ’ ’
Louis, announcing he will
train near Bangor, Me., said he
is adding to weight intention
ally. lie anticipates no trouble
taking off the excess poundage.
“I’m doing nothing much
right, now but eating and sleep
ing’,* he said. “The rest won’t
do me any harm, and once I
start training I won’t have any
trouble getting my timing and
footwork right again.
Joe said he couldn’t resist
attending the Golden Gloves
show, the: kind in which he got
hia start in 1933. The following
year he won the national ama
teur title. Then he started aj
professional career in which the!
score now stands, 27 fights, 23
knockouts, four decisions, all in
Joe's favor. — World Hernl
HE WHIPPED TWO MEN
IN SAME NIGHT
Jn these days of boxers who fight
only when the century plant is in
bloom, this yam about Oscar Ran
kin, the red-hcaded sepia middle
weight title contender seems like a
fairy tale to be classed with gaso
line at 10 cents a gallon and eggs
at a nickel a dozen. I merely quote
Larry Morrison, Rankin’s manager
who swears his boy fought two
men in two feature bouts in the
same ring on the same night.
As the story goes, a few months
ago in Detroit, Rankin was to show
his stuff on a card featuring four
10 rounders The Californian stop
ped his white opponent, Manuel
Vittorio, in the initial frame and
was in his dressing room taking a
shower when the promoter came
and asked him to go on. in the fi
nal bout. He was to substitute for
Tom Patrick, who had been booked
but who failed to arrive.
Rankin's opponent was Leo Kel
ley,, 175 pound deacon of a cullud
church in Detroit, who was found
attending services and hustled to
the arena where he agreed to meet
his lighter foe. Rankin gave away
ten pounds and won what Morris
son swears was a sizzling decis
ion.
J don’t vouch for this. The tale
has merely started going around
and round and it comes out here.

Jack Kearns has out his letter

the Foxy One is already stirring up

Printed in the upper corner of the

Heywood Storey, the "Black

Wonder what Joe Lillard thinks
of the ousting of Doc Spears from
the Wisconsn U- coaching job. If
memory serves me right, Lillard
went with Spear to Oregon a few
years ago to play football—and Joe
was so good they practically
wrecked the entire Pacific coast
conference, to throw in charges of
professionalism and got Lillard
out of college football
Poland’s Anti
Semitic Drive,
Nazi Style;
—
Spreading from the Corridor and
other districts bordering on Ger- j
many, a nation-wide terror against
Jews is raging in Poland- Inflanv-1
matory anti-Semctic literature
printed in Germany, is smuggled j
into Poland and the Jew-baiting
newspaper Warta 1s being sold on'
the streets by Polish Nasi Party
members wearing swastika arm
bands. Anti-Jewish outbreaks in
the universities and secondary
schools are frequent and violent. In
the Universities of Warsaw and
Posen, “ghetto" classes have been
established and Jewish students
are frequently! beaten. In the Pol
ytechnic School at Lwow, a Jewish ,
student died as a result of a beat
ing received in a school riot- In the
Polish Y.MO A.’s, the -introduc-1
tion of an official “Aryan Para
graph,” prohibits Jews from enter
ing or using the club rooms, or
recreation halls, etc., and no Jew
is allowed to participate in, any of
the organization’s activities.
In the market places Jewish
tradespeople are terrorized and
robbed; and in Przytik and in the
vicinity of Lodz (hearquarters of
the Polish Nazi Party) an active
campaign is being carried on to
make it almost impossible for
Jews to obtain food and other nec
essities. Throughout Poland, Jew
ish homes, synagogues and stores
have been bombed and set on fire,
and an increasingly large num
ber of Jewish shops have been
forced to close because of boy
cotts, plundering raids and open
terror.

Boycott Store
Negro Clerks Are Reinstated
In Durham
Durham, N. C., Feb. 27—
(ANP)—Using their buying
power as the weapon local cit
izens here were successful in
having two dismissed Negro
clerks in the Kroeger grocery
store m the Hayti section, rein
stated, after several hours of
picketing.
The Negro clerks Monday
were discharged and replaced
by white men. When the report
of the action of the Kroeger
management, was circulated a
mass meeting was called by cit
izens in the section and a com
mittee appointed to call upon
the manager, who was request
ed to reinstate the men. When
he refused pickets were station
ed bearing signs urging Ne
groes not to buy from the store.
Following the advice of the
pickets every prospective cus
tomer passed up the Kroeger
store and tine patronage is al
most one hundred percent Ne
gro. Seeing his sales practical
ly stopped the manager called
tho pickets in the store and ad
vised them that he had recalled
the Negro clerks and that they
would be put to work as soon
as they arrived. This was done
and the boycott was lifted.
Encouraged by the success of
this movement, the citizens com
mittee moved to the A. & P.
Store and the Pender store, two
other chain stores in the district
and demanded that Negroes be
employed threatening to boy
cott the stores if the demands
were not met. Managers of both
stores told the committee that
they would take the matter up
with the main office and report
their decisions Thursday.

Legislator Outlines
Program For Race
Frankfort, Ky., Feb. 26, (C) In
a special statement to Calvin’s
Newspaper Service, Hon. Charles
W. Anderson, Jr., newly elected
representative in the Kentucky
Legislature from the 58th Dis
trict, Jefferson County, (Louis
ville), has outlined his program
for the race in his state. He says
in part:
“My first bill introduced in the
Kentucky Legislature was House
Bill 148, which provides that the
state pay the tnition of students
compelled to pursue professional
and graduate education at insti
tutions outside the state
“My second bill was to create
tho office of a Third Assistant
Commonwealth’s Attorney for the
City of Louisville- My purpose for
drafting this kind of bill was to
open the avenue for the future
possible appointment of a Negro
“My third bill relates to both
races. It provides that any teach
er having taught school for five
years within the state may marry
and retain her job.
“A fourth bill provides for the
state to pay the expenses neces
sary in the defense of persons
charged with felonies, who are un
able to employ counsel. A Pau
per’s bill, and especially helpful
to our race
"My whole program concerns
legislation where necessary to cre
ate or open avenues of employ
ment for our race; to give us bet
ter opportunities and abolish dis
crimination in the employment of
our race on state projects- Like
wise, I arn interested in progres
sive legislation irrespective of race
or those matters which will aid
the progress of Kentucky."

On the interracial angle of edu
cation in Florida, Mr. Wiliams
told Calvin’s Service: “White peo
ple are continually becoming more
generous in their attitude towards

is like the growing of a plant,—it
is imperceptible at the time the

a perspective of the situation in
Florida for the past decade shows
