Negro Prize Fighters (hy H* w-Smith)
v\e listened very attentively to
the opinions of the many sports
writers before the fight on Wed
nesday evening Sept. 18th and we
wondered what would be publish
ed after the fight. The one round
affair has changed the trend of
thought 60 years ago when John
L. Sullivan was the heavyweight
champion he drew the color line.
When Peter Jackson was very
much out in front and gentleman
James Corbett fougbt a draw
with Jackson in the city of San
Francisco and iater on Jackson
knocked out Geotge Godfrey. Geo.
Dixon the lightweight champio*
was the winner of quite a number
of bouts and Joe Jeanett and the
Boston Tar Babv. Sam Langford
always would tell what round he
would finish a flgnt and Joe Cans
and Battling Nelson were in a long
fight. Jack Johnson loomed up
. and Jess Willard the champion was
H -knocked out by Jack Dempsey who
started his boxing career in a pool
hall operated by Sim Tompkins a
Negro fighter in Skit Lake City.
Tompkins posed as young Peter
Jarkson at one time. The Brown
Bomber Joe Louis came one the
scene to win 23 bouts in 24 starts.
And to my way of thinking the
Negro fighters steps into the ring
to win even though he contacts
vnforseen unset* Harry Wills was
tons for a long time until Battling
F;Vi loomed up and yelled out to
Wilis in the ring, you are too much
for me Of course Wills verv soon
trough; the fight to a dose. Af
terwards in sn effort to get a fight
> tween Wilis and Demosey the
latter drew the color line.
FUNDAMENTAL CHANCES
IV RED CROSS STRUCTURE
WASHINGTON D. C—Funda
mental changes In the organizat
ional structure of the American
National Red Cross..the mold im
hortant and far-reaching changes
in 40 vears. were adopted by the
mvsent governing body, the Cen
tral Committee, at its September
me e*ting in Washington.
The changes were recommended
by a nationally representative Ad
visory Committee appointed last
Starch bby Basil O'Connor, nation
al chairman, to study tthe organ
ization of the Red Cron in the
‘:*ht of the tremendous growth in
Ka membership and services to
V
the people since 1905 when its
present Congressional Charter was
granted.
Announcing tthe action today
after transmitting the recommen
dations to the chapters Mr. O’Con
nor said they are of great signi
ficance to the Red Cross organi
zation at all levels. When they
have been carried into effect, he
aid. the governing body of the
Red Cross will be predominately
representative of, and will be re
sponsive to, the chapters with full
representation of the national in
terests which it is the obligation of
the Red Cross to serve. This should
insure that the organization will
be an appropriate and efficient in
strument, reflecting the needs of
all the people, to direct and guide
the Red Cross in its fields of ser
vice in the coming years.
