MICHIGAN STATE SUSPENDS j
RAY ROBINSON j
f DETROIT? (ANP)--The Michi-'
pan "Rotate Board of Athletic con'
tro! last week suspended former
welterweight and , middleweight
[champion Ray Robinson and asked
the National Boxing association"
| and the Now""" York State conimisj
sion to concur in the action.
Robinson's indefinite suspension j
Lwas announced by William Marty,
secretary, Michigan commission, j
He said Ray was being banned for '
his failure to go through with a ;
scheduled Dec, 8 fight here.'
According to Marty, the commission
took the action against Robinson
when Nick I.ondes, local match !
maker, shbwed the commission a
telegram signed by Gedige Gainsford,
Ray's manager, giving approval
to the Detroit bout.
Prior reports stated that Robinson
was scheduled to meet Joe '
Rindone in a bout here on Dec. 8.
However, Robinson later denied
having signed for the fight.
Mary said the Michigan group'
would ask \t?\ and. the New York
commission to honor the suspension.
New York's chairman Robert |
Christenberry said, "We will re- j
cognize the suspension as part of
tjut reciprocal agreement . With
Michigan."
MARSHALL UPSETS SATTERFIELD;
WINS ON KO
' i
CHICAGO?(ANP)?Hot again, j.
cold again Hob Satterfield cooled j
off again last week. The hard-1
punching Chicago light heavy- |
weight with the glass jaw sufferr
ed a second round knockout at the i'
hands of Marty Marshall, Michi- j
pan State light heavy champion
in a scheduled eight rounder at I
Marigold fiavdens here.
Only recently Satterfield, fight!
ing one of his host fights, scored '
sr Sensational "frrre-rmind knockout i
over Johnny Ilolman, also of
Chicago, who had extended him
on a previour occasion.
The knockout was ao spectacu- i
lar that Ike Bernstein, Bob's vener |
able manager hollored that his boy *
"would knock out Archie Moore," |
light . heavy titlist. In fact a
match between Moore and Shtterfield
was actually arranged for
Dec. 2f) in Miami, The Marshall
fight was " con side red rficrcly a
tuneup for Bob's none title bout-*
ou ?mm
with Archie. f (
However, the plan backfired ',
* I
as Marshall proved anything but a ; j
pqshover. Not only did hei hai^d ?
Satterfield a severe pummelling,' j
flooring him four times in the ( t
second round, but the latter is said j
to have suffered a possible broken (t
right ankle asf a result "of the final ; :
knockdown. I (
The knockout came at 2:09 of71
the second stanza which means t
that it took Marsh&ll, a virtual 'J i
unknown, just 5:09 to put the : (
favored Satterfield away. There '* I
is even the possibility that Mar- t
shall miglit have ruined plans for j
the tentative Moore-Satterfield <
fight. 1
One thing is certain. Bob has
blown another chance of winning <
national honors, I
The knockout also proves the be- i
lief prominent in sports circles: 1
"Satterfield either knocks out his (
opponent or gets knocked out N
himself."

OLIVET HACKS KEV. JACKSON
FECI) WITH OUSTED
MEMBERS
CHICAGO -lA^I'i ? Some ~
1,500 members of Olivet Baptist J
churc.h here last week unani-u
mously approved a statement
pressing confidence and apprecia: ?
tion for I)r. Joseph H. Jackson,
pastor and office of the church'.?
who . are-being? sued?by?ousted i 5
members of the church.
The statement backing Jackson, <
who is also president of the Na-<j
tional Baptist Convention, USA,, ?
Inc., the. largest Negro denomina-!jj
tion in the country, with some 4 j ?
1-2 million meinbeus, was read tojp
the church by Deacpn T. P. Hines?
secretary Of the official board of i ?
Olivet. jj
Hines, a defendant in the suit|?
which opened this week in Cook j jc
county Superior court, sought to; f
answer charges of the group <
suing the officers of Olivet.
Some f>0 ousted members filed j
the soft recently, charging that ^
Jackson and officers of the church I
are denying thorp their right as <
church members. |
The grou]> bringing suit does t
not charge dishonesty, but as- ?
serts that a "isproportionate" n- I
mount of the church assets have jj
been spent in the purchase of \ t
home and furnishings and an \
automobile for Jackson and th it |
required monthly, quarterly, and|<
annual financial reports have not \
been duly made since T951. ~
The statement by Hines and AT.
JT Pea Fry, chairman of the of* ;'
ficial board and another respond J
i',
;nt in the case, said "we coniemn
as unnecessary, unfair, un,1'ue,
libelous and ungodly, the
statement made recently ____ by
people who are not members ol
;he Olivet Baptist Church."
.Defending Jackson, * the statenent
said that while "he (JackRmT
-has given to~us wise euun;il
as a business executive, he
las left all business decisions to
:he will of the board, always urg
ng us to act. in the. best interest
)f the Olivet church. All property
that has been been acquired by
>he church during the .past 13
fears was purchased by recommolation
of the official board and ap
proved by the church/'
The statement by the officers
>f the church came as a surprise
to press observers. " Followng
the filing of Jhe suit some
three weeks - ago, officers* at
Olivet refused to make any com
ment on the charges.
Evidently anticipating that the
plaintiffs, some of whom had j
>een members of the church for I
M) years, .would seek reinstate- |
hent, t.he officers of the church
in an open letter to Republican
jommitteman William K. King,
supposed leader of the group
filing suit, said:
"All of you were given a
chance to mend your wavs and
return to the church. Many of
the members \vhr> had boon niiub'd
and deceived hy you and your
group returned, made acknowledgment,
aVid weree received into
the full fellowship in tho
chruch. "
"You and those associated with
you, still have the right to apply
for membership in the church...
Rut, you will never get hack into
the church by any other hieans
than the vote of said church."
"The civil court cannot put you
and your followers hack into t.he
church. The truth is, no external
that power, as long as we live
under the present constitution of
he ""United States of America,
which grants unto all, the freedom
of religion.
"As a lawyer, you ought to
know it, you ought to Vie humble
enough to go to some Baptist
jji nci <111(1 it ilI ii u#
Jackson- administration status in
its history, the officers said t.hat
"the things for which we at Ulivet
are niQst happy, is that no
longer are poltical meetings
held in our church.
"While we have nothing again
st you as the Republican committeman
of the third ward, we dt'
not need you tell us how to rur
the / _-church, for ' the. .churcl
is too big to dealt with as a pre
cinct of any city-ward, and wC
feel that our pastor is too great
a religious statesman and leader
to serve as anyone's precinct cap
tain."
