SIDE SUIT BID RISKY

Even though you think 1t may
contribute to the reaching Of a
sound slam contract. the bidding
Of a side suit Is highly dangerous
after your partner has shown
good support for your major.
Against the times that such q bid
helps you feel sure Of slam posi-
bilities. there are plenty Of occa-
sions on which 1t tells the oppo-
nents how to put up their defense
against your contract.

BLACK BARONS
SHOWING MUCH
GLASS HERE

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-(SNS)--
The Black Barons. champions OF
the Negro American League, are
showing all of their 1943 class IN
training here. Regarded as the
club to beat fer the 1914 flag, the
Black Barons are going about their
chores in quiet and earnest fashion,
but confidence fairly oozes out OF
their every action.
The Barons face the Cleveland
Buckeyes at Birmingham next
Sunday, April 8, and the Clowns,
April 10th at Montgomery, Ala
bana.
President Tom Hayes, Jr.. and
Manager w. S. WEIGH, contrary TO
the usual procedure of baseball
executives at this stage Of season,
frankly admit they believe they
have the best ball club in Negro
baseball this season and will win
the worlds championship. They
missed it by one game in their
playoff series with the Homestead
Grays last fall.
Barring further inroads into the
playing personnel by war condi-
tons, Pilot WEIGH has squad that
promises to at least equal last
years in class, hustle and show
manship. The 1943 Black Barons
were great favorites everywhere,
mainly because they always kept
bearing down.
The return after one year of
Double Duty Radcliffe, voted
the leagues most valuable player
last season when he was manager
of the Chicago American Giants,
gives WEIGH most valuable first
assistant, in addition to one of the
games top pitchers and catchers.
On the current squad, from last
years champions, are Tommy
Sampson, Johnny Markham, Lefty
McKinnis, Al Sayler, Johnny Hub
err, Lester Lockett, Felix McLaurin,
Lorenzo Davis, Schoolboy Newberry
and Ed Steele.
Outstanding among the new
corners are Johnny Britton, third
sacker obtained from the Indiana
polls Cincinnati Clowns in a
straight deal for third baseman
Jesse cHorseO Walker, who be-
comes pilot of the Clowns; John
Williams, Raymond Taylor and
Carl Turner.
