SATCHEL PAIGE WOWS ’EM IN AT
YANKEE STADIUM; 27,000 NEGRO
FANS CHEER HERO; HIT BY BALL
New York, (Calvin’b Servic43)
—NcgriHw jammed the Yankee
Stadium last Sunday like flies to
Hce their hero, long legged, long
armed with big feet and a real
eyes for baseball, “Satchel*’
I’aige do his bit wUen he got in
there and pitched for the Kansas
City STonarchs. There were over
27,000 fans awaiting their thrill
of seeing the one and only Sat
chel Paige, the pitching hc’o of
the day. The National Negro
Baseball ' League, sponsor oj Iho
fames, really mopped up tho
dough as usually their louble
headers draw only 14,000. But
Satchel was the real magnet. The
crowds stood up and cheered on
their chairs when the Monarch,
behind the pitching of Paige and
Smith defeated the Cuban Stars
7-2. W.hat a score!
But in the 7th inn'.ng, old Hatch
wjjs hurt by a hurling ball thrown
by Barnhill of the Cuban Stars.
The Monarchs then had allowed
^le Stars only 3 hits. Paige
had to leave and Dr. A. Hogan,
Monarch’s trainer who wrapped
up Paige’s arm wouldn’t let him
finish up the game. Hogan be-^
licves the injury will K^cp ole \
Satch idle for several weeks.
Everybody expected a duel of
Barnhill of theCubans and 41 year
old Satch, but Sateli didn’t give
him a chance.
In the second game, the Black
Yanks a«>d the Philadelj^ian
Stars ended the game 3 to 1 in
favor of the Yankees. The pitch
ing stars w^ere Stanley and Mc
Henry for The Phillies. All in all
Satch was - the life of the game
and was Jllisscd. ^ i^

Some Price Raises
Are Justifiable
Says George Peck
This time we are trying to be
smart. We are endeavoring to
avoid inflation for we know
from sad experience, the eco
nomic distress which deflation,
the inevitable aftermath of in
flation, has caused this nation
in the past.
For this purpose, and with
rare foresight, the United
States Government set up the
Office of Price Administration
and- Civilian Supply, as a safe
guard — a check against un
warranted, rising prices; So far,
this arm of the government has
done an execllent job. Mr. Leon

In view of this, we dislike to
