In a ' strongly worded .1 telegram to President Ronald Reagan, Hooks said, "We deplore this latest signal from the U.S.; ' of a shifting U.S. policy toward the avowedly racist South African government. This action ignores the consistent U.N. resolutions calling for an end to apartheid." . He; urged the State Department "to withdraw d approval , for these ? representatives ' of racial . . intolerance to enter our country." The rugby team is scheduled to tour the 1 United States inf include Chicago, Albany and New York City on September 19, 22 and 26th, respectively. ; Hooks issued a strong warning about the "serious implications" of this course of action for the United States in future international sporting events, ' referring specifically to the coming Olympic Games in Los Angeles. "This single ac tion could wreck the Olympic Games in 1984. The U.S. is running the risk of inviting another Olympic crisis by ignoring the sentiments of black African nations," Hooks, further warned that "the world cannot respect a two-faced U.S. nation" in assessing the impact of the Administra-. tion's action on the worlds community. .. , . . ; T 1 - Historians believe the phras "bring home the bacon" was coined by the mother of 1910 heavyweight cham pion Joe Johnson who defeated the "Great White Hope".
