Bias In Sports A few months ago, some readers were shocked to dis- cover that the staid and impres- sive, New York Athletic Club, one of the city's ornaments, bars 'Jews and Negroes from its teams. Local New York politi- cians claimed they knew noth- ing about such bias, although the secretary of the. club, Alfred Foster, admitted that the club had no Jews or Negroes on its teams. Considering that New York's Jewish and Negro popu- lations are heavy and that Ne- gro and Jewish athletes have proved their abilities over and over again, it is a peculiar situ- ation—and, one might even say, with ugly undertones. Robert Cohen .Quits Robert Cohen of France, has quit the ring, folloWing a knock- out and a loss. It is a pity, for Cohen was not only one of the few outstanding Jewish ring- men; he is also an observant Jew whose demeanor on a trip to South Africa won for him the applause of his fellow Jews in Africa and elsewhere. Nat Fleischer, editor of Ring maga- zine, first called attention in the United States to Cohen's abili- ties. But the little fighter burned himself out before he could come to the United States and show his wares. Now a ca- reer is finished and we have not had the pleasure of seeing the boxer at his best. And he is only 25. 0 01 Avph, 9liztjoAtk and the FLOYD RICE COMPANY to all their friends, customers and the Holiday Greetings entire Jewish Community GENUINE Think Twice . . .
