Outside this country, however, these credentials are not distinguished.

Coage has done poorly in world class competition, and Japan, for example, is filled with young players who could throw Coage around all day. so, Coage is preparing to abandon the dough-mixer at the Pechter Baking Company and spend at least the next two years at Nihon University in Tokyo to learn the game. A group of local judo players has pledged $5,000, which should enough for round-trip fare and the first year's expenses. Because of the complicated and often arbitrary rules regarding 'amateurism, a great deal of time has been spent a tax- sheltered scholarship plan through the people-to-people sports wmmittee, and negotiating with the Amateur Athletic Union's judo committee. not following all that too closely." said Coage the other night after a workout at Jerome Mackey's Judo, Inc.

all ready. just waiting for my ticket, I've been dreaming about Japan ever since I first put my heart and soul into judo." Coage is 6 feet 2 inches tall, his body hard-packed at 230 pounds. He remembers being a tall and skinny 19-year-old noticing a Mackey poster in the subway. Judo dimly meant to him breaking boards and people at the time, and he went to the studio. It turned out to be something quite different, but he signed up and, he says, in love" with it.

It was his first total commitment. Raised in the St. Albans section of Queens, a middle-class black neighborhood, he hung out with a gang called the Scotchmen Lords and attended Woodrow Wilson High School He recalled the student body was 75 per cent black and the white teachers Coage was routinely arrested several times, and once spent a few days in youth house where he as shocked by a vision of his future-drugs. jail, death. parents were surprised, they thought they were giving me everything." said Coage.

It was different there, about 20 per cent black students, and the teachers weren't just concerned about getting their paychecks, they cared about us. and gave us work to do." Coage, who had taken an entrance exam for Edison, studied electrical installation He says that of the 500 young men who graduated with him.

however, only three got into the electrical union-Il was a father-and-son union. father was able to get him into the bakery union, and after a year working with his father at the Fink Baking Corp. Allen was sent to Chicago for six months of advanced bakery training. But once the judo began to take hold. Coage was possessed.

He became a black belt in 24 years, which is unusually rapid, and his life wheeled around his workouts at now without charge-his roadwork, his weightlifting, his preparation for matches and his evangelism. go back to Junior High School 59. where I went." he said, I'd tell them it up to them to better themselves. tell them about the mental aspect of judo, how when you find you can train hard at this thing, you can apply it to anything you do. that once you get into the habit of meeting a goal you can go out and do anything you want." i guess we all have a chip on our shoulder, most black youth IS like dynamite, ready to strike out at anything in its way, You could meet someone, they'd insult you.

and meet him head- on. Judo can give you the confidence to back off. just dumb to back against a wall when you can find ways to get around it. or over It, or under it and get what you want Coage hoped to inspire others, he was inspired, he says, by meeting George Harris, an air force careerist, who in 1961 was the last American to win a S. grand championship.

Harris is black, and he told Coage that he would have to work just a little harder than anyone else because he is black, and because he had the added responsibility of representing people." Wlien Coage passes this on to the junior high students a few become outraged, but he explains that shouldn't be true but the way it Coage feels he carries this responsibilituy to Japan, and it will help him to give up." The first year of three daily workouts and constant competition will tear him down, he says, but the second, hopefully, will begin to bring him up to world class. He would like to win a medal at the 1970 Olympics, but the trip means more than that. a he says. needs one." AL Owners Allot Seattle Nine Days BERKELEY, Calif.

Carlos, a printer from San Jose State who finished third in the 200-meter run at the Olympics and then lifted a black- gloved hand in a black power salute at the medal-awards ceremony, was drafted by the Eagles on the 15th round.

The club said Carlos, who last played football in high school, would be tried as a wide receiver. Most of the big names from the All American and even the Little All American ranks were grabbed in the first day. In fact, a Little All American quarterback, Terry Bradshaw of Louisiana Tech, was the No. 1 pick in the nation. Davenport, who won the I meter hurdles in the Olympics at Mexico in 1968 and has played cornerback for Southern University, was picked by the New Orleans Saints in the 12th round.

Otis, the pound fullback of the Ohio State team that was No. 1 during most ci the season, was taken in the ninth round by the New Orleans club.

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) Arthur Ashe, American Negro tennis star, was refused a visa to compete in South Africa, triggering a new wave of biting opinion against the racial policies that likely will lead to further isolation in international sports. Already banned from the Olympic Games and six other international sports, South refusal to issue a visa so Ashe could compete in the South African Open Tennis Championship in March could result in expulsion from Davis Cup tennis competition.

(pinion against South ruling in the Ashe case shalled quickly after the announcement with the U.S. Lawn Tennis Association issuing a strongly-worded statement in New York citing clear case of racial At the same time the specter of deteriorating relations with Mota Ink Contract LOS ANGELES (AP)-Manny Mota, the veteran outfielder who may be switched to third base this year, returned his signed contract to the Los Angeles Dockers Wednesday. Mota, 31, sent in the pact from Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic where he has been playing winter baseball. At the request of Dodger General Manager A1 Campanis, the veteran has been working at third base. With Bill Sudakis shifted to catcher for a trial, the club hopes to add hitting strength all around in the infield.

Mota received a pay boost, but the Dodgers did not reveal the contract terms. His signing leaves only eight Dogers who agreed to terms. Unsigned are pitchers Bill Singer, Don Sutton and Pete Mikkelsen, infielders Maury Wills and Jim Lefebvre, catchers Tom Haller and Jeff Torborg and outfielder Len Gabrielson. Mota joined the EHxigers along with Wills in a mid-June trade from Montreal last season. He had an overall batting average of .321 and hit .323 with Los Angeles.

He has an eight- season lifetime mark of .297. the United States government rose over the ban. The U.S. State Department had involved itself in the case by giving support to visa application through Secretary of State William Risers. Spiirtsmen throughout South Africa expressed fear that the visa refusal will not only lead to South expulsion from Davis Cup competition but will rebound into other sports, giving added impetus to the campaign to drive race-segregated South Africa out of world sport.

Race segregations laws in South Africa, which forbid whites and non-whites to compete together, have caused the country to be banned from the Olympic Games and six international table tennis, amateur boxing, fencing, judo and weightlifting. Anti-apartheid movements are demanding that a South African cricket tour of England and a New Zealand rugby tour of South Africa be And South most widely known athlete, golfer Gary Player, who was subjected to anti-apartheid demonstrations while playing in the PGA Golf Tournament last year, has admitted that banning Ashe could cut the country off from world sport. Arthur Ashe he said, be the last straw to make our isolation in the field of sport The decision to refuse Ashe a visa was announced by Sports Minister Frank Waring. He said the government ban was on Ashe as an individual, not as a member of a team, and came as a result of general antagonism toward South Waring said application for a visa was, in own words, an attempt put a crack in the racist wall down and not just for the purpose of playing tennis. Player took frank exception to that when he was asked for comment in Johannesburg.

am very disappointed indeed at the he said. I have met who know Ashe insist he only wanted to come here to play Ashe, who has spoken out strongly against apartheid, had promised to make no statements about anything except tennis for three or four weeks after the championships were completed. The Ashe decision occurred at a time when U.S. policy toward South Africa is under review, and that was alluded to in the statement issued in New York by the USLTA. The statement, quoting the president, Alastair B.

Martin, the fact that the USLTA, as well as the State Department, was greatly interested in case and had made very effort to assist his entry in the South Africa Championships. said Martin, South membership in the International Lawn Tennis Federation will be suspended. It is a clear case of racial discrimination and rules of the ILTF expressly prohibit this and any violation of those rules is ground for Martin also cited what he termed the irony in the situation South unfounded allegation that Ashe is an anti- South Africa militant and that he intended to visit South Africa as an agitator. only criticism ever expressed by Ashe was that South Africa excluded black athletes solely because of color. The denial of his visa proves that his criticism was correct and In London where a special meeting of Davis Cup nations is scheduled for March 23 to consider South future in the tournament, leading tennis officials predicted a hardening of world opinion.
