Hazel Walker and Her Arkansas Travelers Barnstormers
Hazel Walker, Arkansas sports icon, founded Hazel Walker's Arkansas Travelers in 1949. The nine player team barnstormed across the South and New York, logging about 39 000 miles yearly and playing some 250 games each seven month tour, with earnings for players higher than many women’s jobs. The group traveled in a single station wagon, changing personnel over time, and a standing rule keeps players only until marriage. Walker, a longtime AAU All America selection and Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame member, built a personal triumph through grace and athletic skill.

Clay Sues For Annulment In Muslim Marriage Rift
Cassius Clay, the heavyweight champion, filed for annullment in a Miami court after accusing wife Sonji Clay of failing to convert to his Muslim faith and failing to follow religious dictates. Sonji, 25, said she loves her husband and wanted to stay married, but finds it hard to adjust to the faith. The suit cites alleged breaches of the conversion promise and Muslim standards on conduct, with the couple’s dispute tracing to Clay's May 25 title defense against Sonny Liston.
