Abstract

It Seems to Heywood Broun

Broun, Heywood | November 13, 1929 issue

add to cart close window

It is heartening to discover that there is much articulate protest at New York University against the action of the football coach in dropping a Negro football player rather than run the risk of a cancellation by the University of Georgia. If there is any further attempt to sidetrack this issue by "passing the buck," as had already been illustrated by a declaration that the coach alone can decide the line-up, or sobbing, as some of the papers have done, that Tyrone Anthony Myers might be injured if he played, which is an indictment against the courage of all players and that of the officials, to say nothing of the offense to the tender sensibilities of Georgia
