''The powers that be IN baseball
Should, with the least possible delay,
come TO the rescue Of the game in
Cuba by taking some stringent action
against such exhibitions as have been
put up by alleged champion teams since
the close Of the season IN the States"
This was a statement made today by
an American representing several mil
lion dollars investment in tobacco On
the island. He saw two of the games
which Detroit played and has just re-
turned 70 Washington
The situation IS serious, and IS
threatening not only baseball On the
island but the whole country. The ma
tive teams are made Up largely OF
negroes. and after these have won vic
tory after victory over supposed cham
pions, they swell up and it is almost
impossible TO curb them There has
been many a fight over baseball since
the invasion started and the whole
condition is most deplorable from the
viewpoint Of the-Haore representative
white population

philadelphia Athletics are at Havana
