Doubtless Jack Johnson Wanted No Part Of Sam : Many an oldtimer will tell you that Jack Johnson, first Negro heavyweight champion of the world, was the cleverest: of 'the champions. "Lil Artha" as he ~ was known, beat them all-in his day. All, that is, except one, a stocky little man feared through- out fistiana as the famed "Boston Tar Baby," Sam Langford. Lang- ford, also a Negro, roamed the - highways and byways, meeting and beating the best men he could lure into the ring with him. But he never could get Johnson to agree to a title match. Some people called Sam the un- crowned heavyweight champion of the world. Proud little Lang- ford wanted' no empty honors. He yearned, instead, for a chance to win the crown in honest com- bat. He chased the champion ¥ and down the land, hurling chal- lenge after challenge, but to no avail. "Li'l Artha" wanted no part of him, simply refusing to make the match. As a matter of fact, champion Jack Johnson nev- er even met Sam Langford face to face + until one night in a Boston tavern frequented by the sporting gentry, \ : Champion , Jack Johnson was standing at the bar surrounded by his admirers when Sam Lang- ford came in and spotted him. The "Boston Tar Baby" waddled over to the bar. "Hello, John- son," he 'drawled. _. "I've" been wanting to see you for a long, long time. I've got something I'd like to ask you." The excited and: happy chat- ter of that packed saloon sudden. ly died. away into silence. The | men at the bar slowly "edged away into silence. The men at the bar slowly edged away leav- ing Johnson and Langford to- gether. "I've been chasing you a long " that's what! to hear that. You're scared to time," went on Langord. "You've & + . 5 2% . been ducking me right along. When are you going to fight me?" Jack Jackson, who feared no one, looked down at the little man, "I'm not bothering to fight you, Sam," he said. "There ain't nothing in it for me. > With that, Johnson picked up his stick and gloves and started for the door, Bulky little Sam Langford planted himself direct- "ly in the big man's path. "I'm not looking for any money out of this," he said quietly. "I just' know I can lick you, that's all, and I want everybody in this room $0 hear me tell you so to your face. I've got a thousand dollars in my pocket. I'm going to leave it right:here on .the bar.' You and I will down to the cellar and have it dut, once and for all. Whoever comes-up first takes the money. In fact, you can have the thousand even if I beat you. "You got to give me a crack at your title!" 4 Jack Johnson grinned his gold- en smile and began to pull on his gloves, "Look, Sam," he aid, "I got a new suit on and a new hat and silk shirt. I don't aim to mess them up. Besides, I don't need a thousand dollars. Out of my way, man, I'm leaving." With that flip remark, Jack Johnson made for the door. Sam Langford turned to watch him leave." "Johnson!" he shouted af- ter the departing champion of the world. "You're scared of me, I want everybody fight mel" : Publicly humiliated as he was that night, Jack Johnson never did meet little Sam-Langford in the ring for the title. To this day, many still argue that the "Boston Tar Baby" would have become heavyweight - champion of the world if given the chance, Un- fortunately for him, the closest .he ever came to the title was in a Boston tavern trying to start a fight that never was fought. ov' COLLEGE TRY -- Getting over that log ano easy lob, but these leopard cubs are scratching away at It.

Such application and the pro- posed scheme is then published and objections and representa- < tions can be made in writing to the Minister, If the scheme is approved, the producers concerned have to register and a poll is taken to determine whether the scheme shall remain in force, If two-thirds of the registered producers actually voting on the pool are in favour, the scheme is instituted. Provision is also made that the producers favour- ing the scheme must be 'capable "of 'producing not less than two- thirds of the regulated product. ** Amendment 1949 The act was amended in 1933, but is substantially the same, It was again amended in 1949, particularly in the provisions concerning. the composition of marketing boards set up under any such scheme. The act provides that "the to- _ tal number of members shall not 'be less than eight nor, unless for special reasons the Minister thinks fit to allow a greater num- ber, more than twenty-four." These members 'are to be elec- ted by registered producers or bodies elected by such producers. The control of the marketing . of the regulated product there- fore is in the hands of the pro- ducers. : To protect the public interest, the trade and consumers, non- producers are also on these boards, But they are in a min- ority and the 'Act says that "not one-: nuniber of members shall be persons appointed by the Min- as being persons who in his opinion are qualified for appoint- _ment ashaving had experience and shown capacity in commerce, ) fifth of the total .
