CUNT LUIGI DE CASTRO,
[ Venezuelan nobleman and .ex-
Cracker, is likely to appear be-
fore long in new role-that of or
ganizer of the Senegambian League
Of Negro Professional Ball Players,
comprising teams from six of the
principal Southern cities, with At
lanta as the keystone.
Following are the cities tentatively
chosen for the circuit:
Atlanta.
Macon.
Birmingham.
Memphis.
Chattanooga.
Nashville.
THE Count was approached last
l week by a number of wealthy
negro business men, who asked MN
If he would take over the work OF
organizing the league, visiting the
other Ave cities, obtaining the neces-
sary backing, and arranging parks.
Castro is considering the offer, which
involves what he admits is a pretty
fair financial compensation for MIN
self.
.'The proposition ought to pay
well " he said. Each of the cities
mentioned has large negro popula--
ton to draw attendance from-and

you know they will go to ball games.
Then with separate stands for white
people, there would be lot of pat
ronage from that source. A negro
ball game is we'll worth seeing, in
Guiding a lot of features in addition
to first class baseball"
THE players for the league would
be obtained largely from Chi
cago, New York, st. Louis and Kan
sas City, where there are negro teams
that play a regular schedule every
year, like the famous Leland Giants,
of Chicago, and the Royal Giants, of
Kansas City.
ONE handy thing about the new
" league is that there would be no
trouble about nicknames for the clubs.
They all would be the Giants. There
never was a famous negro ball team
yet that used another name-at least.
none that we recall off hand. Leland
Giants, Cuban Giants of New York,
Cuban-X Giants of the same place,
Philadelphia Giants, Royal Giants
all Giants, So that important detail
may be regarded as settled.
For the rest of II, the versatile
Count is waiting to be assured of the
backing before he ventures afield to
make preparations for the opening
date. which the organizers have set
for May Lift they can get ready that
