And a day of it is in store for all. WSGN will carry the Sugar and Rose Bowl affairs and WAPI will have the Orange Bowl event The New Orleans game between Tennessee and Boston College will start off the football four hours (or so) over WSGN at 1 p.m. This will be described hy Fort Pearson, assisted by Crescent City announcers. Then will come the Rose Bawd clash from Pasa-dena, with Bill Stern, ace NBC sportscaster, doing the chief chores, But the likable head of Birming- using names.

The left end was ham's parks doesn't think a bottle called First Avenue, the left tackle and perhaps knife are good things Second Avenue, the left guard for a Negro to have at the same Third Avenue, and so on. time at a football game.

So world's only checkroom for liquor at a football game. This sounds like stealing a page from Roy Octavus Cohen's novels, or reading the mail of the late Pete Marsoni's Big Jim. But its the truth. At one game more than 38 gallons oS whisky, in all kinds of bottles and with all kinds of tastes, were checked at Legion Field, just when the quarterback wanted a certain backfield man to take the ball around left end, he would say: Thomas Jefferson down First Avenue. So good for that, but.

what, Downey wondered, would the q.b. call for if he wanted a pass? Not long afterwards, it came. The quarterback stepped back, poised himselef for the heave and like you would check your coat and shouted: Vulcan over the Moun- Helftlme M. A 34 BwnUtoti 20 Periotnl Foali-L, William 3 Motley.

Another story familiar to a lot of persons who attend Negro games ir the sneak player" play Fisk University of Nashville pulled on Tuskegee some years ago. It was a twilight game at Legion Field, one half being played in daylight and the other under the lights.

Just before the first half ended, it was hardly light enough to see. but not time to turn on the lights. The score was tied. From the west bench the Fisk coach sent in a drove of subs. They reported to officials and one of them walked back to the sidelines as if to leave the game.

He flopped along the sidelines almost to his own goal. Time drawing close, officials and Tuskegee players paid no attention to him. The play was called and into the sky shot a Fisk pass, going, going, going, going. You could hardly see it. Suddenly the fugitive sub arose, snared.the ball from the semi-darkness and ran fqr the only touchdown of the game.

That actually happened at Legion Field. Wednesdays Steel Bowl game at Legion Field may produce more phases in Negro football history here. Certainly the stage is well set for them. Bring your radio to listen to the other games, but keep your eyes on Legion Field. but aided by Ken Carpenter, of toe game, watched it to the end.

ASCAPS CONTRACT WITH NBC expires Tuesday night and no settlement of the situation seems imminent A lot of radio urograms have already banned ASCAP numbers and few listeners realized it. The public's interest in the matter was keener than at first though, however. This department in the last few weeks has been asked any number of times about how the fight would come.out.

Latest development in the case was the Department of Justice announce- ment at Washington last week that it would file after Jan. 1 anti-trust criminal proceedings at Milwaukee I against the American Society of Composers. Authors and Publishers, I Broadcast Music, NBC and CBS a drop of the 38 gallons was left uncalled for, and, more unusual, not a person was arrested for being on the intoxicated side. The way the park board officials did was to write the owner's name on his bottle and give him a stub. When he called for his bottle after the game was over, he was given same without any questions asked.

At one game, however, the stadium keepers decided to pour all contents of broken, or unsealed bottles, into a giant container. Bottles that had not been opened were returned to owners untouched And the poor fellow who did ail the pouring had a heck of a time explaining to the madam that night that he wasn't loopy and. whats more, he hadnt had a drink. The odor? Boy, what a concoction! Negro football games may be played all over Pie country like they are played in Birmingham, but it is doubtful if any one city has supplied the stories Birmingham's Negro games have furnished. Mr.

ASCAP's Silent Night New Year's Eve Marks Climax Of Radio Row No Of Truce Is Held Hope In Dispute Over Music To Be Allowed On Air NEW YORK P. -The row between radio broadcasters and the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers reaches its climax at midnight Tuesday night when 1,500,000 ASCAP-controHed tunes will be banned from the three major networks and most of the nation's stations.

Cole Porter and Irving Berlin, and dozens of equally famous composers, those of Broadcast Music, Inc. formed by the broadcasters to supplant ASCAP will be heard over' NBC, CBS and Mutual networks and through 648 stations which had been signed up to Tuesday. ASCAP's songs will still be aired by 137 siations some of which are included in the 648 which have signed with BMI but the latter group claims its stations control 95 per cent of the dollar volume of radio business. It will be the first time in 20 years of radio history that ASCAP's tunes will be off the air and those tunes comprise most of the important music written in the last 56 years.

As the eleventh hour approached, both ASCAP and the National Association of Broadcasters said there was no hope for a truce, neither side expecting any major development in the squabble until Monday, when the Department of Justice is scheduled to institute antitrust proceedings against ASCAP, BMI, CBS and NBC.
