Jake Miller incident stirs press and Atlantic reaction
The Charleston Gazette notes the Jake Miller incident after a player accused of slapping an opponent during battle, which officials say was accidental. Southern papers backed Miller, while VPI coach Jimmy Kitts defended him. A letter from A R Hutchens downplays any need for explanation to booking officials. The article also mentions the return of the Charleston Press Club trophy to display in Charleston before the 1947 championship dinner. It covers broader items from Harold Stassen’s campaign to postwar Japan terms and a Kate Smith award plan.
