PHILLIS Wheatley high school will host the District 4-AAA
field and track meet, Friday, at Alamo stadium, with its
being indicated that the 1959 cinder path festival will be one
of the most heatedly contested, and closest of the past decade.
Anderson of Austin, which has only taken track seriously
the past six years, but has won the district crown for the last
three consecutive years, will have a terrific battle to repeat.
The dintriet record* that will N* on
tlir line, n rf piVI'11 above.
Not since 1!l.Vl, when only two
point* *e| nr ted the first three tr:.ins.
ins point making HtrenRth appeared so
tvetll)' liintrihuted.
In ltlTO, Wheatley, once the per-
ennial kingpin of track in this sec-
tion of the state, won the must close-
ly contested meet in the history of
district competition. The Lions totaled
4,"ii: points. Anderson, n track con-
tender for the first time, was second,
with -M 1*4. and Solomon Odes of Cor-
pus Christi. the then defending titlists,
finished third with 4,1.%.
The I,ion contingent, that year, was
led by Elijah "Bed" Crady, who
cracked the then oldest record on the
books, when he sped the century in II.S
seconds. Grady won the 220, and main-
tained an old Wheatley tradition of the
Dons almost invariably furnishing the
high point roan of the meet.
Tfce IJbna, this year, again, have a
rliuuee of breaking the oldest record on
the books the broad jump murk of
22 feet. 0 Inches, established 12 years
ago. act. Incidentally, by a l.ion. Allie
Bardlttan.
Wheatley'a Stanley Handle, defend-
ing state champion in the broad jump,
has n record-ahatterlng leap in his ays-
tem. He won the erent with a 22-foot
jump at the Heguin meet. He copped
the broad jump at the Waco meet, two
weeks ago, but only leaiied 20 feet,
7 inches, in winning that one.
Ilandle has tough com|ietition In his
own teammate, Thomas J. Bell, who
bent Handle in the Wheatley four-
teen meet, a few weeka ago. Bell
Boa red 20 feet, 7 inches for thnt vic-
tory. Bell was second to Knndle at Se-
guln. and second in the \\ aco meet.
The I.ions have strength in the bnwd
Jump. Handle, who graduates in May.
is closing out his career for the Uons.
Hell is jolt beginning Ma. He ia ■
aophomore.
WEATIIEB A HANDICAP
Foul weather has intecferred
wllh practice daring the paat !•
days, and the unsatisfactory
training ny be reflected In the
result' Friday. But It's been had
all over, as they say.
The Moos, last week, look >
trip to Corpus Christi just for the
ride as did a doieti other schools
when the annual t nlf Count
relays, staged by Soloroen t ales
high school, were rained out.
Unlesa the I.ions have a run of hard
lurk, they should do good pointing in
the brond jump.
They hare strength in the mile, with
Madison (irant, the district champion,
and his brother, Charles, who was sec-
ond in last year'a district meet.
In Hubert Moore, they have strength
n the half-mile, and Lawrence Betta
bus been blaring the 440.
So far, the only man to beat Stan-
ley Handle in the shot put, this year,
has been a Wacoan, who Is ineligible
for district competition. Handle, nit*),
has finished no worse than second in
the discus, thus far.
Thomas Bell should pick up aoine
points in the sprints, and the Lions
should get some points In the 440 and
mile relays.
Wheatley might well get a few more
Sinta In scattered errata, to make
r Lions a title contender.
Colea May Get Record
The Green Hornet* of Solomon
Oolea also have a chance In poaaible
record-breaking, with Roy Hicka ap-
pearing to be a cinch to cop the high
Jump. He has leaped 8 feet, three
Inches, a height he is reported to have
eleared by three Inchea. They stopped
bim from jumping after that leap.
The district record la 6-2, established
by another Hornet—Karl Dlion—In
Colea to aiao depending on Hlcka
for good points In the hurdle events,
and he Is a broad Jnmper, too, Ua heat
leap, this year, bring 20 feet, 6 Inches.
'Hie broad Jump could develop Into
• sisaling battle between Handle and
Bell of Wheatley, and Hicks.
Coles* Matthew Tsylor, defending
champion and record holder, is favoreli
to take the pole vault. He *et a new
district mark of 11 feet, 8 inches, last
year, and bat gone over 12 feet. An-
other Hornet, Herman Hrown. finished
cccond to Taylor, In 1058. This mark
aeetua ch stined to go by the boards.
The Hornets' 440-yard relay teem
will be among the contenders in that
•vent, and Frank Cage will be a con-
tender in the open -M0.

CINCINNATI — AII-American Bob
Boozer nnd Wilt Chamberlain were
among the five tan play era picked in
the first round of the anntisl draft by
the Xstionsl Basketball association re-
cently.
The others were Johnny Green,
Michigan State; Dick liarnett. Ten
nesscc State, and Tom Hawkins, No
tre Dame.
Nine others aiao were tabbed before
the completion of the selectioua.
Iiooser was the No. 1 pick, lie wa«
chosen by the Cincinnati Royals, des-
perately in need of scoring and re-
bounding strength after winning only
10 games, to finish a haples* last in
the NT.A western division this sesson.
The Kanaas State star should be an
asset to the Royals. In thre ysr*
for the Wildcats, he set a career rec
ord of 1,645 points and was the team's
leading reboimder.
Chamberlain was the territorial
choice of the "Philadelphia Warriors,
having decided on him before his
graduation from Overbrook high school
in Philadelphia.
Stilt .May Get Top Offer
Wilt hns been playing this season
with the Harlem fSlobe Trotters under
a contract that could net him ^U,0(lO.
However, Abe Saperstein, owner of
the Trotters, has a financial interest in
the Warriors and it is anticipated that
Chamberlain and Eddie Cottlieb. the
team's president, eventually will get
together in the most lucrative NBA
contract in history.
Green, the most valuable player in
the Big Ten this season while per-
forming for Michigan State, confer-
ence champions, was a selection of the
New York Knicks, A 24-year-old Day-
tonian, he never played high school
basketball and got started on his cage
career while a member of the air force
in Japan.
Hawkins, the all-time high scorer at
Notre Dame, was the first choice of
Minneapolis Lakers, the team that bid
high last year for the services of El-
gin Baylor. Hawkins, however, has
been thinking of casting his lot with
the National Industrial Basketball
league, which would permit him to
combine basketball with a business ca
reer.
Barnett, who led Tennessee State to
an unprecedented three straight titles
in the National Intercollegiate Athletic
association, was the surprise choice
of the Syracuse Nationals. He could
be the sleeper of this year's draft. The
Nats also have had large success In
the past in picking nnheralded per-
formers from Negro schools.
A choice in the second ronnd was
Cal Ramsey, top scorer in New York
university history. He went to the
St. Louis Hawks.
Others chosen included:
Wilson Eison, Purdue co-captain,
hold Its title. The Jellowjackets have
Alvin Propps, state champion in the
half-mile; Jimmy Schuler, who will be
a contender in the century; Alvin
Scales, winner of both hurdle events
in 1958; and some surprising new-
comers.
It will be recalled that Anderson
won last year's title by virtue of win-
ning first places. The Jackets will be
out for the firsts, again this year.
Bryan will be led by the versatile
Lloyd Snseberry who will pick up
points in^ the hurdles and middle dis-
tances, and the Kempmen have a pair
of biasing sprinters. Bryan nsnally has
good dash men.
Elliott Myers will be a contender
in the shet pnt and high jump.
Waco's Moore high, competing in
its first district meet, has scattered
strength, and Can pick up enough
points to throw the meet to one of the
better-balanced teams.

Doby's Bat Key
To Indians'
Flag Hopes
By BILL BROWER 5
For tbe Associated Negro Press
CHICAGO—If someone wanted to
wager on a long shot to unseat the
New York Yankees in the American
league pennant race this season, they
could do worw? than picking the De-
troit Tigers.
The Tigers have been picked beforq
as the Yankees' foremost threats, tfnt
not since 19T>0—a long nine seaona ago
—have the Bengals been in serious
contention. j •
Why the Tigers now? It could £bf
that the Bengals stole the AL pen-
nant in a trade with the Cleveland
Indians, in which Larry Doby went to
Detroit for a mediocre player namnd
Tito Francona.
Funny thing, Cleveland, a few weeks
ago, was saying that its pennant hopes
centered largely on Doby to make the
transition from center field to first
base. The Tribe soon abandoned thnt
experiment, returned Vic Power, the
versatile Puerto Rican, to first base,
and Doby became expendable.
Larry, a veteran of 12 American
league seasons, would have had to bat-
tle for a regular shot, had he remained
with the Indians. The 34-year-old out-
fielder, who hit 253 home runs in his
major league career, did not concede
thqt he belonged an the beuch, to see
occasional action, or be restricted to
pinch-hitting roles.
IJkes Briggs Stadium
With tbe Tigers, Doby has been tap-
ped for the left field job. He has
never played that position, except
briefly last seaso" when b« was
plagued with a sore arm.
It isn't so much his defensive skill
that Detroit's manager, Bill Norma
is counting on to help the Tigers out
of the second division, nnd maybe
upset the Yankees; it is Doby's poten-
tial with the bat, especially in Briggs
stadium.
The right field fence at Briggs sta-
im is an inviting 82& feet and should
K a most desirable target for Doby,
has hit more than his share of
runs in the Detroit ball |>ark.
The Tigars have urnda a pitch for
Doby before, realizing his threat as
a home run hitter. Right 'now, 'LArry*
Is third among the AL active players
in home runs. He believes Jie can help
his ranking in Briggs stadium.
Doby told fellow Tigers at Lakeland,
Fla., the tejim's training base, EG¥t
he think* he can deliver 25 or .'tO home
runs this season. If he should, with
the strong pitching the team has, De-
troit should certainly get into the first
division and might go all the way.
Rookies Battle
Doby was one of four tan players
on the Tigers' spring training* nuste*.
The others were Ossie Virgil, the first
tan player iu Detroit history, last sea-
son; Ossie Alvarez, a Cuban infielder
who came to the Bengals in u winter
trade with Washington, and Maury
Wills, a fleet infielder who played
last season with Spokane, a I s
Angeles Dodgers' farm club in the
Pacific Coast league.
Virgil had a splendid beginning
with the Tigers, then tailed off iu
August and finally ended the season
the bench. He might stick with
the club this year as a utility infield-
Alvarez and Wills also are battling
for utility places on the-team. Both
are light hitters, but adept at playing
second or short. Wills is a speedy
man on the base paths.
No Farming for
Children During
School Hours
With the coming spring planting,
Texas farmers were reminded today
thnt while the fair labor standards
act permits children of any age to
work < n farms after school and during
vacation, it prohibits farm work by
children under 10 during school hours.
This reminder comes from Dallas'
William J. Rogers, regional director
of tile V. S. department of labor's
wage and hour and public contracts
divisions, tbe agency which administers
the act.
He said that the child-labor provi-
sions apply to local youngsters nnd
children of migratory workers alike.
The only exception to the law is in the
case of children working exclusively
for their parent or legal guardian, he
added.
To make sure of the age of any
young worker he hires, the farmer
should nsk for and obtain an age cer-
tificate. These certificates, which sone
as proof of age for purposes of tbe
act, can be obtained in Texas from
the Texas Employment commission, as
a public service.
Tbe child labor provisions apply to
farmers whose crops go either directly
or indirectly into interstate or for-
eign commerce. Rogers pointed out thai
a farmer must observe the law if he
has reason to believe that his crops—
either in their original form or pro-
cessed — will eventually cross state
lines.
Additional information about the
application of the act to children work-
ing on farms can be obtained from the
wage and hour division office in Dal-
las. Ft. Worth. Houston, San An-
tonio. or F* U on
SEGUIN—The Ball high school
Dragons evened the score for the
baseball season with the Ros« nwald
high Tigers of Luling, by whipping
them, 7-1, at Fairground park here,
Tuesday night. April 7.
The Dragons took a two-run lead
in their half of the first inning and
had command all the way as Arthur
(FhiteH Calvert tossed a one-hitter
at the Tigers. He struck out 12.
Ball padded its lead with two runs
in the second, and three in the fourth
innings. The visitors scored in the
third. The Dragons hit safely seven
times, with four striking out. They
committed two errors, Luling, five.
