Collection Description

Historical Note

The 100% Wrong Club began in the "Atlanta Daily World"'s sports department by writers Eric (Ric) Roberts (1905-1985) and Lucius L. Jones (1910?-1952) to recognize exceptional athletes and predict collegiate games' outcomes in 1934. The club later expanded its mission to recognize college and high school athletes, local community leaders, and national pioneers in the field of sports and social justice.
