McGrow Used CoIored Ace
By CoIIinq Him lndion

The barricade was thrown up by
the club owners rather than the
players and managers. John j.
McGraw played great Negro first
baseman named Charley Grant on
the New York Giants for a brief
spell some 20 years ago. He passed
Grant off as an Indian. The ruse
went undetected until some of
Grants friends threw a party for
him. The secret broke and McGraw
reluctantly dispensed with Grants
services.
The first Negro professional team
on record was whipped together
by Frank Thompson, headwaiter of
the Argyle Hotel, at Babylon, N.
Y, in 1895. In order to get book
ing dates for his boys among the
white pro and semjpro clubs,
Thompson called his team the
Cuban Giants-White men would do
business with Cuban colored men
where they snubbed the native
born Negro.

CoIored Ball Players
OfMojor CoIiber
By JOHN LARDNER.


NEW YORK, Nov. 81 (NANA).-
Some years ago Honus Wagner
secuted a young Negro ball player
on high school diamond with the
notion of lining him up for Carnegie
Tech and subsequently for a big
league career.
The colored player, Charles West,
told old Honus that he didn't think
there was any chance for a Negro
to break into major league ball.
Wagner scratched his head.
Il don't know he said. "You
might pave the way, boy"
No one has yet paved the way.
In his new book, The Negro in
Sports" Edwin Bancroft Hender-
son, head of the department of
health and physical education Of
the Washington, D. c., colored pub
lie schools, traces the history and
development of Negro baseball and
the long, losing struggle to intro
duce colored players into the Ma
tional and American Leagues, where
as any one who has watched the
better colored teams will tell you.
