The Jackie Robinson Story (1950)

William 'Bill' Spaulding: Bill Spaulding

Quotes 

• UCLA Scout : He led the conference in TDs. Only, there's one problem, Bill.

  Bill Spaulding : What do you mean, the Trojans have already got him?

  UCLA Scout : No-no. No, he's a colored boy. I heard somebody squawking about giving colored boys too many athletic scholarships.

  Bill Spaulding : Colored boys are all right with me if they're the right color.

  UCLA Scout : The right color?

  Bill Spaulding : I like a good, clean, American boy with a B average; if that's the kind of a boy you're talking about. His colors are blue and gold.

  UCLA Scout : UCLA colors, huh?

  Bill Spaulding : That's right and you can tell it to Robinson for me.
