Win Five First Places
In Rome Allied Meet
ROUE, Italy .—United States Negro service men copped first
place in five out of 11 events of the 1944 Allied track and
field championships held Sunday, July 16, before a crowd of
10,000, in the Italian Forum, otherwise known as "Mussolini
stadium." The United States won a total of seven first places.
Hundreds of American, French, and British athletes, rep-
resenting every branch of the armed forces, participated on the
Kite of Mussolini's proposed world of 5 feet, 10 Indies, and then, In
fulr.
Remise spikt's were un.
available, all athletes ran
either barefooted or in teunls
shoes.
Complete result* were not dis-
patched, Immediately, hut it Is
mfe to conclude that, liesidea the
first pluees won by .Negro partici-
pants, itiiec athletes also came In
for a share of other places.
The Negro winners were I'fc.
Ulchard Ford of Detroit, Mich.,
who, lu tennis hoes, won the 100-
meter dash 111 11 seconds; rfc. Wil-
lie Steele of Pan Diego, Cal., who
was the meet's only double winner,
won the high jump with a leap
his bare feet, leaped 22 feet, 2
Inches to take the broad Jump;
the shot put was taken by Sgt.
ttobert Smith of Ocean City, Miss.,
who heaved the iron ball 44 feet,
0 Inches. An all-Negro l.UOO-meter
relay team won that event, the
qunrtet lielng composed of Cpl.
Kugene Taylor, I'asadenn, Cal.!
Thomas Cannon, Chicago. 111.; l'vt.
I'arker Harris, Yakima. Wash., and
Sgt. Jim White, Fresno, Cal.
All in all, Americans won seven
first places, while the other four
firsts went to New Zealand, the
British, France, and French
Arabia,
Newark Eagles Hope
To Keep Grays on
Down-Grade, Sunday
PITTSBURGH, Pa—Abe Manlcy'g youngsters, labeled New-
ark Ragles, will be back at Griffith stadium, Sunday, Jnly
23, for the definite purpose of keeping the Homestead Grays
on their down-grade course. It was these same hustling young-
sters who proved on June 19, right in Washington, that the
champs had a number, and they got it with a 6 to 1 score,
behind the airtight hurling of Lefty Jimmy Hill.
Since that time, the drays have '™ -
bowed to the Eagles In Newark,
dropped a bargain bill to Itnsh-
wlcks, beaten by the Cubans, Bal-
timore, Plillly Stars, and several
up river teams In Connecticut.
It's an old score which the
Eagles want to settle. For the
past tlireo years, they have l>een
hauled nlioiit, man-handled, nbuscd
and embarrassed by the power-
lionse Crays — at home and
abroad. Now, with the (irays 1111-
nble to get focused in a winning
direction, Manley's kids are out
to lay It on strong and often. At
least, thai* what they are telling
fans around New York, Phila-
delphia and Newark.
This might turn out to be a
true prediction nnd not Just an
idle boast, If the champs fall to
shake off what tlicy have been
carrying around for almost a
month. The front offlca has or-
dered a sliakeup of some kind,
amounting to anything that Jlui
Taylor can do to get new fluid
flowing, or "jerk" some of the
many "stars" out of their tem-
peramental slumber.
What they are expecting back
In Homestead is for pitchers to
pitch—and win. Hitters to hit-
in the clutches. And their best
Sunday fielding—everyday. And,
that's what the Orays must do,
every bit of it, to -stive off New-
ark's inad desire to cop both ends
of a double bill this Sunday.

Missions Nip Greer's
Stars, With Final
Play Ending in Row
By Z. CELESTE ALLEN
LACK of knowledge of the rule book ended in an argument
, what, prior to the incident, had been one of the best games
of the season as the Black Missions were credited by the scor
board with a 3-to-2 win over the Greer's All Stars in a game at
Tech field, Friday. July 14.
The game had been an interesting pitchers' and fielding
duel, with Blevins shooting them across for the All Stars, and
Holmes doing the mound chores
for the Missions until the storm
broke iu the ninth Inning.
Holding a to 0 lead through
the seventh inuing, one run l>eing
a round tripper over the left-< en-
lerfield fence by Levy Taylor,
Ilolmes, of the Missions, weakened
In the eighth with (ircer's b«;ys
driving in two runs to get back
In the hall game. Haynes relieved
tlie thoroughly tired Holmes nnd
quenched the fire in that inning,
but (jrcer's boye came back to
threaten again in the ninth.
With one away and men 011 first
and second, Johnson missed a third
strike, with l.'nderwood, Mission
catcher, dropping the ball. John-
son broke for ^irst, although b«
was automatically the second out
as first and second were occupied.
But the runner at serond broke for
third and was easily tossed out
to retire the side.
The decision brought a storm
of protest by itie All Star mana-
gerial staff, but as usual, the um-
pire's decision stood, and the Mis-
sions walked off the field credited
with a 3 to 2 win.
Both teams had put on a dis-
play of sparkling ball, only this
questioned decision marring what
otherwise was one of ibe most In-
teresting and closely fought games
of the season.
