New York, May Il Talk about
your Dizzy Deans, Hubbels, Hard
ers. Gomezes, and Blantons.
Any baseball man will tell you
that YOU oughta see Leroy Paige.
Paige Is a gawky Negro under
the management of Ray Doan, the
Muscatine. Ia, promoter VINO mas
nearly as many ball players under
contract as the far-fiung st. Louis
Cardinal system. Doan, among
other things, annually sends two
House of David outfits on the
road, and operate baseball
school at Hot Springs, Ark. Un-
der Doan's management, Grover
Cleveland Alexander made more
money in one season than he ever
did in the majors
Paige last season pitched for
the Pittsburgh Crawfords, one OF
Americas one-two-three Negro
teams.
Paige fogs the ball through
there like the Jerome Herman
Dean he SO greatly admires. Lee
Roy-his dandy dogs long since
have given him the name Of
Satchel-perhaps is the best
known semi-professional pitcher
in America.
How would like to see him
tangle with Dean, Hubbell, Harder,
Gomez, or Blanton in a champion
ship contest!
Chicken Gives Him Speed !. =.
Paige, now in the Dakotas, troup-
ing the weekend, twilight, and
arclight circuits, yields to no man
in individuality or pitching ability.
Satchel trains on fried chicken, hot
cakes, and warm biscuits. dat
fried fodo keeps me feelin' great"
says Satch.
Paige buzzes the fast one like
Barney Ross shoot a jab. Sud-
denly out Of an elongated mass of
arms and legs that is Satchel's
windup comes the ball. 1t sizzles
over the plat nipping the outside
corner and the batter wonders just
what happened.
satch works every other day. 1t
could be veery day, II he had to.
"Ah don: get tired. Dey JUS like
to see a different face In dere.
OATS why takes a rest" Is his
explanation.
Paige Is 20, and looks 81. He
has long, sinewx arms that seem
TO drop to his knees. He always
could whip a baseball with that
lean right arm, even back in New
Mexico. whego he grew up and
learned to play.
satch for the last several years
has been with the Pittsburgh
Crawfords. colored club owned
by Gus lCreat Gusto) Greenlee.

and the team has a big following.
which has come to regard Satchcl
as sort of deity.
When he announced he was of
to the Black Hills or some place
for his northwestern adventure. a
deepar pail than ever hung over
the section Of Pittsburgh known
as the Hill.
Upstart Looms as Diyal
On the Pacific coast Satchel is
legend. In winter games there he
beat big league pitchers without
drawing a second breath
About the only colored pitcher
who could stand up with Satchel
was Stuart (Slim) Jones. the
beaupole of the Philadelphia
Stars. the club that won the Negro
National League championship
last year. Jones is just as big. just
as nonchalant, just as fast. and
only slightly less experienced than
the Satchei.
Last summer at the Yankee
stadium they locked horns. Nine
innings they strapped to q IL tie
in as well-pitched. a game as you
ever saw.
Jones is only 20 and coming up
faster than Wiley Post on
stratosphere flight so he may be
the Satchei aPige of the next two
or three years. Maybe he will. But
he has important handlcnps. Jones
doesn't lap up fried food. be takes
care Of himself, and he has deep
variety Of modesty. That's likely 20
cost him success IN the Hatchei
Paige-Dlzzy Dean League.

WEAR WILL Be The
GOAT AS LEADER
OF U. 5. CUP TEAM
BY STUART CAMERON
United Pess Sports Editor.

New York (UPl-Joseph w.
Wear of Philadelphia already has
qualified as the most courageous
of American sportsmen in 1885.
He has accepted an invitation to
officiate as on-playirg captain of
the United States Davis cup team.
This means, above all else, one
thing very definitely: If the U. S.
fails in its quest of the cup Wear
will be the goat.
Best Tennis Traditions
This is in keeping With the best
American tennis Traditions. Last
years non-playing captain was r.
Norris Williams, also Of Phila-
delphia. The Americans failed
dismaily and he was the goat. Be-
fore him came Fitz-Eugene Dixon.
a third Philadelphia, and the ar
istocratic Bernon Prentice Of New
York.
OF williams unsuccessful cap
taincy it may be said that he
didn't care what his critics set
down. He had the trip to Europe
and the glory that went with 1t.
The boys lost, but probably would
have lost anyway, so what of it?
Wear, Of course, is leading with
his chin. No tennis expert gives
the young American combination
more than an outside chance
against Britain, holder of the cup,
and few expect them to get past
Australia, almost certain finalists
in the European zone competition.
: Fair Showing Greatest Hope
The best Wear can hope for is
fair showing-two victories in the
five matches that will decide the
game-as contrasted with last
years rout in which only the dou-
bles match was captured.
Incidentally 1t may be remarked
that Wear accepted the assign
ment only after the most earnest
insistence of the tennis fathers.
There are precious few men quali-
fed for the job of non-playing cap
tain, and for what reason no one
knows, most If not all of them are
in brokerage business.
Price High
Two months away from home
in the midst of a lot of excite-
ment, hoopla and publicity would
be fun enough, but the price is
high when business Is considered.
Once upon a time a non-playing
captain sailed bravely away, his
business apparently secure. But
his ventures blew up, higher than
kite, while he was away.
Wear has been a Davis Cup cap
tain once before. He led the u. S.
squad to Auteuil in 1928, when, for
the first time since 1920, the
American were in the role of chal-
lenger instead of defender. Amer
lea lost to France in the challenge
round that year, four matches to
one. The lone victory came III
Bill Tilden's win over Rene La
coste.

state tournament. He found him- self in a six contract with the opponents cashing the ace of hearts and then shifting to the jack ot diamonds. This was won in dummy with the king.
 Now, If Richards had made the mistake of ruffing off the jack of hearts, the contract would have been defeated. Instead, he took a round of trump, then cashed the ace and queen of diamonds, dis carding a spade from dummy.
 Then five club tricks were cashed, leaving dummy with the five of clubs and the jack. nine Of spades, East with the king-queep of spades and the king of hearts. and South with the ace-eight of spades and jack of hearts.
 The last club was led and East was helpless. A heart discard would establish declarer's jack, while spade discard would give declarer two spade tricks.
