by little Roberto Estalella, the Cuban
third baseman brought up by Mr.
Cambria a few seasons back Ever
since the round man from Baltimore
shifted his attention from the laundry
business to base ball. his activities
have been followed with strange
degree OF lip-curling by the brass hats
and the ball players.
Mr. Cambria S most ambitious enter
prise was the Albany team when it was
running in the International League.
Running is just figure of speech.
The truth is that Albany was a hope
less tail-ender under Cambria and it
was with great deal of pleasure that
Poppa Joe's eventual exit was re-
garded.
Base ball big-wigs maintained
that Poppa Joe was too bizarre
for the best interests of the
game.
1t was Cambria who signed Alabama
Pitts before the guy was out of Sing
Sing and it was Cambria who sent Al
Benson, the pitcher with the pink
whiskers, to Washington. But if Poppa
Joe was guilty of operating against

ANOTHER PARTNER
Campaign Against Davis
Cup Player Held Difficult
to Understand.
BY GAYLE TALBOT.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

HILLS, September 3
~ There's strong campaign
/ afoot already to get husky
Gene Mako off the American
Davis Cup doubles team and break in
a new partner for Don Bulge before
Germany comes hunting for the cup
next Summer.
The tennis fathers have not been
content with Mako's play for some
time. They felt he was the weak link
in the American team that went
questing for the big trophy this Sum-
mer. Gene lulled their suspicious for
time with brilliant exhibitions both
IN the lnterzone final against Germany
and in the challenge round victory
oyer England at Wimbledon. but the
stralght-set trouncing administered to
hlm and Bulge by the great German
pair, Gottfried Won Cramm and Hem
ner Henkel in the national doubles
championships last Monday has the
wolves in full cry again.
There was more talk about it heye
yesterday during the opening round
o. the singles championships than
there was about the days matches
mat is not so very surprising. consid-
erlng the unalloyed dullnsss of a For
est Hills first day, but the feeling
that Mako should retire gracefully
and let Bulge be assigned more tai
.ented partner is strong, nevertheless.
Van Ryn Is Favorite.
A PARTIAL poll Of those with feel
lngs in the matter favored the
veteran John Van Ryn to team up
with Bulge next time. They still re-
gard him as the finest doubles PLAYER
there is, barring George Lott, now
professional. They feel that he and
Bulge, himself a superb doubles per-
former, would be able to keep the
Davis Cup safe from Germany or anv
other country. But if Van Ryn were
not available, they would be willing
to settle for Frankie Parker. Bryan
Grant. Wayne Sabin or. in fact, almost
any player with doubles talent.
1t is trifle difficult to understand
the depth of the anti-Mako feeling.

We realized that we would have
to do something to keep the bust

further method of increasing the
interest of the club in the better
acquaintance of it's members and
the advertisers, we have lately
been offering gift of a dollar a
week in merchandise to some mem
Der in st. Paul and Minneapolis
whose membership number would
be found in an advertisement in
each of our papers.
Our patrons, who read the adj
vertisements anyway, would thus
be induced to read them more reg
ularly and with more careful
scrutiny. Having found the num-
Der the lucky winner would come
to our office and receive an order
for the merchandise. We thought
it was small enough trouble to take
to get dollars worth of goods
free. But among the first of the
fortunate ones was one who
telephOned us to take the order to
the merchant, get the goods indi-
Gated and deliver same to the win
ner! "You bring the ducks" with
a vengeance!
Of course, we would have gladly
performed this extra service, but
that is not what the merchant
wanted. He wanted to meet the
person who won the award. He
might make a permanent customer;
at the least he would have the as
surance that the people to whom
he was addressing his sales talk
were reading what he had to say
Now, of course, we absolve our
patron of anything save little
careless thinking in asking us not
only to give him a dollar, but in
addition to bring it to him. And
we tell the story for no other pur-
pose than to save other readers
from the same inconsistent error.

previous occasions, that the only
way in which our group can re-
ceive adequate compensation fer
the more than two million dollars
spent in these communities annual
ly, is to think in terms of economic
cooperation. 1t will give us better

We have all, at some time or
other, laughed at that most anus
ing character in POpeye's cartoon,
Mr.. Wimpy, whose phenomenal
love of hamburger sandwiches
leads to many ludicrOus situa-
tiOns; his inimitable cOnceit as he
invites his friends to "cOme up for
a duck dinner" then adds, with a
delightful twinkle in his eye, "YOu
bring the ducks"
But Wimpy is a Pigment of the
imagination and we scarcely ex-
pect to meet his like in real life.
But wait moment while / tell this

1t goes back a year or more
when the nationally known A. w.

ton of various media, and among
others of the Negro press of the
country, published its findings to
the effect that of the 80 or more
publications among the smaller Ne

them all. This meant that in reader
interest, in it's makeup, in its well
developed and attractively ar
ranged advertisements, this paper
excelled all its competitors, NOD
only in Minnesota but throughout
the United States.
Of course that made US mighty
proud and the knowledge should
have made our friends mighty
proud also.
But we knew, as our readers
also know, that the firms that adj
vertise with us would not continue
to give us their business just out
of pride in our achievement; they
