Podoloff to Discuss Negro Housing at NBA Board Meeting
NBA President Maurice Podoloff said he will raise the accommodation issue at the board of governors meeting in Detroit next Thursday. After Minneapolis star Eigin Baylor and two Negro teammates were denied hotel lodging, Baylor refused to play the Minneapolis Cincinnati game in Charleston West Virginia. A Charleston sponsor had told Minneapolis coach George Kundla that Negro players would not be housed with white teammates. Podoloff said he would consider protests if lodged, but would wait for official word.
