MELANCHOLY MANIA
| COMpoOouUNDED
—B LUCILS "MELANCHOLY ' JONES——
STATE COLLEGE-CLARK U.
XMAS DAY and the South Carolina-Clark inter-conference clash
are just over the hill Next Friday, exactly one week away, 18
the date. Tt'll be a treat for you to see Captain Gregg, Joe Green,
Triple-Threat Cain, Red Dawkins, Webber, Persons, and company In
action. All those boys are stars ,the very mention of whose name!
causes South Atlantic fans to gasp for breath., Their blood-curdling
deeds caused many fans to go open-mouthed and pop-eyed this year.
They were scored upon only once, and that score came in a game
which they won by a margin of five touchdowns. Eight other foes
were blanked, including Knoxville, Famcee, Talladega, and Benedict.
Knoxville whipped Morris Brown and State held Knoxville scoreless.
Famcee held Morris Brown to 6-0, and State whipped Famcce, 32-0.
Talladega g;opped Morehouse, 18-13, but State was too good for the
'Degans. If comparative scorc meant anything, one way of looking
at the results would make State 23 points better than Clark. Jero
goes: Famcee held Morris Brown to 6-0. State beat Famecee, 32-0, mak
ing State Qllrty-lwo points better than Famcee and twenty-six points
better than Morris Brown. Clark beat M. B. U., 9-6, making State
twenty-three points better than Clark. About the truest relationship
in strength of the two teams is as follows: Knoxville beat M. B. U.,
6-0. State tied Knoxville, making State six points better than Morris
Brown. Clark beat M. B. U., 9-6, making State three points befter
than Cla’l‘k,..."ll' Clark beat Knoxville, 14-13, which team was tied
by State, making Clark a point better than State! There's one thing
of which the writer feels cocksure, there's hardly six points difference
between Clark and State at this writing, and of the two, State im
presses him as the most likely winner. Don't guess our supercritical
neighbors will dub us TRAITOR anew for facing facts!

NEARS COVETEL
PUEG HONORS
Chicago, Dee. 20— (By The Asso
ciated Negro Press)-—These boxing
tournaments seem to be duck soup
for sepia gladiators if one is per
mitted to add to the record they
have made in the middleweight
eliminations 'in = Milwaukece, their
first night stand in the light heavy
weight contests being conducted
here at the Chicago stadium under
the auspices of the WWational Box
ing Commission.
» There were four .. eight-nound
bouts on the opening program and
among the cight fighters were 4
white Amecricans, two black Ameri
cans and tweo white foreigners.
Among tha winners were thoen
white Americans and one black
American.
The Negro ,winner was a young
ster new tg these parts, Billy Jones
calling Philadelphia his home.
Jones took this town in immedi
ately if the comment of the sports
writers means anything. From the
day of his arrival, his class was ob
served and predictions of his suc
cery weérc made.
He was pitted against a tough
foeman in jis first hear, cue
Owen Phelps, called the Arizona
cowboy. Phelps is the fighter whn
turned Larry Johnson around after
Larry had frightened all the boys
of his class with a busy year dur
ing which he piled up nothing but
knockout victories over the best
men at the weight. Phelps took
Larry on at one of the smaller
local clubs and took him for a
trimming that cut great holes in
Johnson's earning capacity
But Jones made short work of
the dangerous cowhoy Fridav
night. He seemed to realize that
there was to be no fooling and
started right after his man. Phelps
a busy fighter, couldnt get within
Jones’ extended . left hand. and
whenever he left an opening,
Jones rifled his right glove thru it.
By the end of the eighth round,
he was soundly beaten and Jones
loomed as a big threat in the fu
ture tournamént battres.
One of the most savage fights on
the night's card was that between
Roy Williams, sometimes up and
somc.imes down, and Dave Maier,
young white Golden Gloves winner.
Roy and Dave slugged ealh other
for 90 per cent of the time in the
cight rounds with the white boy
piling up a steady lead. But Roy
would not quit and Maier was un
able to knock him out. Maier won
the decision. y
- Two other bronzed challengers
will appear in the ‘second round of
the tournament which is to be held
this coming Friday night. They
are Larry Johnson and Petitt Fera
rer of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Op
ponents are chosen by lot and it
was just the hard luck of John
son and Ferarer to draw two of the
toughest mep in the tournament.
Johnson's assignment is Rosy Ros
eales, who, the report goes, whipp
ed Johnson jn Detroit last year,
knocking him down nine times.
Ferarer picked Battling Bozo
the white clown of . Birmingham.
Ala. Bozo, feather-fisted, fights in
the style of the late Tiger Flow
ers and has proved an embarras
sing proposition to all of tle head
liners.
GORILLA JONES HAS ONLY ONE
MORE FIGHTER TO WHIP

Ohio, mystéry .man of the ring,

Dying For Alma Mater
. »
\""’—"‘—"—""“"BY IRIC Roberts—-—- sy
'I‘Hl' sargantuan pereentage of cvily that cropped in football this
vioar (particularly that of the wiite men) leaves one contused and
mildly stunned. I say that of the v hite men parcnthetically because we
. sepia sons have been more fortunate But these deaths
SO because of foothall leaves me wondering what to say, o1
b write, or even do about it, Sixteen colleges have discon
tinued football from further campus display. Thirty odd
! boys died for their dear Alma Maters this year What
: b accounts for it? Is it the speed or the wedge or are the
{ B (cllows playing harder? Is it the shock of a man dying
as such an early age while pursuing such a trifle as a
v %] darn bounding pigskinned oval inflated with air? Or 1s
“RICY it a fact that the boys of the white skin play harder than
the sepias? What about dying for Alma Mater; for foot ball? It is sad
and depressing business. A mother's son brought to her door stilled
and chilled in death! A family stricken, a heart broken, a life taken;
because of football? Is is worth it?
Who is qualified to answer? Only the elders, the parents, are
frightened by such thoughts. The young men aren't being scared
any. Footbhall is a boon to them. They like it, I know they do.
1 do. We get a kick out of the bumping and the roughing and
the charging, the tackling and the eluding. There must be a
kick in it or we wouldn't go for it so strong. A young man,
with all of life ahead .is never afraid of death or injury. Old
people, with most of life spent, are. I went for football against
the wishes of my parents and professors and doctors told me
athletes died young becausce of heart strain. The other guys
heard that, too. It hasn't cut down the athletic squads any.
[\1Y parents advised me against football in high school. I resented
o that. T fought most of my own way through college so I could play
The glitter is off my football career. T've lost my college letter or lct

wanted anything in my life quite as much as I wanted a college toot
ball letter at one time. Other fellows want theirs just as sincerely. It
is the vanity. the physical vanity of a young man that makes him that
way. Let a guy carn his letter if he can. Let him be an All-American

It is a crying shame to have one's son exposed to the haz
ards of football at cighteen or rineteen or twenty. And yet take
foothall away and the next generation will invent a game that
will be risky ard dangerous and that wiil make (hem feel that
they are men. A young man Iikes to feel that he is a MAN.
They are at the hero stage. They like danger. They iike to act
and do the tonuch things that only MEN do. They arent abragd
of death or a broken lez. They think they are too strong for
that. Imagine a MAN scared?
I KNOW how a football circus grips a fellow For sixty minute; a
veu struggle about the white lines, the world revolves around yvou
You are the center of the universe. Fight, fight, fight, until your leg
arc weal: and vour head dizzy. Kicks on the shin. hard punches mn the

A man' Sometimes a guy sits and dreams that he is in there fighting
for Alma Mater: he's taking a pass or running or tackling He
thrilled. Only in the dream he deesn’t get tired. or an ankle docon't
turn or an eye isn't closed.
For an older man there isn't o5 much of life left to spend as
there used to he. He'll tell you in chorus with the son's
mother: “No, I don't want my boy to gel his leg smashed. [
don't want his nose broken, I don’t want him to die at twenty
... Not to win a ball game and advertisc a university and
guaraniee a coach another years contract!” But the kid would
n't care and he wouldn't sec it that way. To him it is an 1mn

worth suffering, and, if necessary, dying for. I often wwonder
