The Prown Parks added the
championship of tihe Omaha
Amateur Baseball association to
their Community crown at Fon
tenelle park Sunday as they scor
ed their second straight win over
the Cudahy Rex, winners in the
Ak-Sar-Ben loop. The score was
11-4.
Beaten, 19-4, last week the Rex.
•taged a suprising comeback and
behind the excelle>t pitching of
Jack Wright battled their oppon
ents to i 3-3 tie for the first six
innings.
In the seventh frame Wright
after passing Nekola and Niemiec
threw wild to first an Bezousek’s
easy roller to the box and let both
Nekola and Niemiec score to break
the deadlock. This cracked the
spirit of Wright and the Brown
Parks added two runs in the eighth
and four more in the ninth.
Cudahys jumped to the front in
the first frame as a pass to Fry
sandwiched between infield hits by
Crump and Clements and Nekola's
error gave them two runs.
The Brown Parks took the lead
In the third frame by counting
three runs. Kozeny walked and
Wurth homered. Nekola then sin
gled, stole ■''eeond, went to third on
a passed ball and scored on a wild
pitch.

BEATING THE GUN
By Alvin Moses
We Must Fight Unceasingly for
THE RIGHT OF Negro Ameri
can citizens to participate in every
phase of American life and espe
cially our chosen field of work—
“SPORTS."
The ‘Group’ papers carry head
lines about the brilliant play of
Dr. Reginald Weir and Harmon
Fitch, In the finals of the Colored
National Tennis Championships
contested at Tuskegee, Alabama.
Fifteen years ago when tlhis eol
! umnist was a hot headed youth of
22 and frerh from law school, we
took up the cudgels about Negroes
being permitted to enter (and be
accepted) in municipal, state and
national tennis and golf tourneys.
Never once have we ASKED
QUARTER on that score—and it
so happens, we’re, not gaited to
give any to a common enemy.
Reggie Weir and Harmy Fitch
might be unable to reach even the
quarter finals of the nationals, we
wouldn't know that and MORE
OVER—it’s entirely beside the
point. NEGRO YOUTHS who an
,-rwer readily to military conscrip
tion or enlistment—resent the con
tinued year after year discrimina
tion in sectors of the country WHO
I SHOULD—set the style for other
sectors who still amuse them
selves with the questionable sport
of NERO and his Roman homo
sexuals. Get after your senator,

leaders EVERYWHERE. Fight un
ceasingly—not with a hat in hand

out everlastingly;—‘ HONORABLE

As the Baseball Seanson Wane*
WE ARE REMINDER, that an
other successful season (in the
front office), has passed for ERIC
ILAIEGE,—the ftpakrrtbnll execu
tive who turns to baseball when
the courteens are through. Three
steady years with MANLEY’S
crack Brooklyn Eagles of the Ne
gro league, has brought to the sur
face a certain ‘depth’ in Illege’s
makeup heretofore not so discern
able. We expect big things of this
young man who frankly admits to
all and sundry that (he owes his
career to that friend and “man’s
man”—BOB DOUGLAS, of Renais

“A Roland for an Oliver Say"
RED HOT BOXING CRITICS,
are discussing the relative merits
of Tiger (Jack) Fox, and John
Henry Lewis. Gus Greenlee’s char

heats at a time when Fox admit

flamed nppendix. They said appen

throws a thousand — MAILED
FISTS, and 'his supporters seem to
think JOHN HENRY couldn’t turn
the trick again—in a million years*.
As this commentator views the
situation three men in the 175
pound dvision stand out like a
bump received from a '‘boanball,”
viz—AL GAINER,—FOX and
LEWIS. Its like the old warcry of
that very ‘ancient King Charle

the mentioned duo. The Arizona

the process of doing same, we can’t
run away from the fact that no

Fast Soft Ball Hearn Wins Game, Lose on Protest
Those colored girls, one of the
best in the west, sponsored by Mr.
Carl Rabc, proprietor of the beau
tiful Rabes Tavern, and the. Fon
tenelle Brewery, were easily the
best attraction in softball.
The Hottentots, playing both
men and girls in over GO games
end taking trips which twice car
ried them to Wyoming ard Colo
rado, where they defeated all girl
teams and some of the best men
teams in Western Nebraska and
Colorado. The most noteworthy
game at Sterling, Colo., ‘‘Stream
line” Bolden, pitched the best
game of the season, defeating Pom
eroy and Pomeroy of that city 6-0
and allowing one hit.
Tho Hottentots tour of seventeen
days in the west took them as far
west as Otig, Colo., and Gurmsey,
Wyo., where they visited several
rodeo’s and the national park in
Gurrnsey.
The girln returned home August
27th to enter the Nebraska State
tournament at 24th and Vinton St.
The game was won by the colored
girls, 8-5 from champion Metz
Girls, only to be taken by Mr.
Harry Stevenson, our most effici
ent deputy sheriff and Judge Lan
dis of soft ball, not because Rose
Jamison and Cladys Brown were
ineligible, but because of their
color.
S. R. Hale, manager of the Hot
tentots, through the Omaha Guide
wishes to thank Mr. Drum and Mr.
Singer for the stand taken and the
whole Hottentot team takes this
means to inform our many admir
ers, that Mr. Bob Drum, president
and Mr. Sinier, vice president, had
nothing to do with our being put
out of the state tournament, and
not only were very hurt at such
treatment, but have decided to
have no more teams in Mr. Steven
son’s league, and the manager has
been informed the colored girls will
be backed by the Fbntenelle Brew

ry, the season of 1938. Thanks, Mr.
Drum and Mr. Singer.

CAN’T LICK JOE LOUIS. The an
glo of two good colored boxers
i scrapping each other for peanuts
doesn’t seem to enter into tho logic
reasoning of Lewis and his men
tors. They’ve already pushed a
golden glove platter in the form of
a certified offer of $450,000 before
tho unwilling eyes of Mes rs. ROX
BOROUGH and BLACK, headmen
of tho chapion’s camp. John Henry
is so sincere about this ability to
lick the present heavyweight in
cumbent that we personally believe
he’d gamble his chmccs against
winning the prized bauble for le-s
than $20,000.
For those clamoring for him
(John Henry Lewis); to go out
and clean up his own backyard
full of contenders—he replies as
does MAX SCHMELING by sim
ply saying—'“I’M STILL THE
MAN WHO KNOCKED OUT THIS
LOUD MOUTHED FELLOW TI
GER FOX, and ALL BUT RUIN
ED, AL GAINER."
Yes, Mack,—you may not have
very much regard for the hot tem
pered Johnny Lewis from Arizona,
but you’ve got to admire the con
fidence he reposes in hLs own abil
ity to LICK ANY LIVING MAN
while giving away some 20 pounds
in tho weights in the process of
doing so. Did some one call MIC
KEY WALKER (white)—the “toy
bulldog,"—well I wonder what
historians in the future will label(
