44s Eft. HOME RUN

449 FIT. HOME RUN
NEW ORLEANS, April 20-Here
in New Orleans this Sunday afternoon,
double-header was won by the Balti-
more Elite Giants, 80, and SO, over
the American League st. Louis Stars
Bill Hoskins, hard hitting Elite right
fielder, led the batting parade with a
single, double, triple, and a record
breaking home-run that cleared the
right field wall-a distance of 449 feet!
All of this in the first game.
FELTON, SNOW DRAFTED
In spite of the success of the Elite
Giants who have scored an average of
9 runs per game for seven games, a
devastating blow has struck the
Grapefruit League" champs who
have won six out of the seven.
FELTON, Snow, famous veteran third
baseman of the Colored major leagues
has been called by Uncle Sam. With
our regular second baseman in Mexico
Manager FELTON, Snow had filled his
shoes most ably until Sunday and now
Uncle Sam has called for him to be
inducted into the army. AS he seems
to be in fine fettle it is quite apparent
it will be just matter of time before
he will be marching.
Ray Taylor of the st. Louis Stars

to his local board and manager Nit
