GOES HITIESS
ON NKIHDAY
CHICAGO, m.
Gene Baker, the Chicago
Cubs’ Negro second baseman,
celebrated his 30th birthday
June 15th. Cubs passed out the
congrats but the Giant pitchers
didn’t allow him a hit and
thereby ended his six-game
hitting streak.

ing of chest pains. Hank
Thompson is very much in the

Dave Pope out as an Indian but

husky Negro outfielder was

Wally Westlake In exchange
for Billy Cox, infielder and
Gene Woodllng plus some cash.
Pope has been used only part
time with the Indians but
boasts of a batting average of
.297.
JAMES' "CHIP" SLIGH, NCC
CAGE STAR, MAKES GOOD
IN CLASS, NOW ELIGIBLE
■ Last summer this time the
saddest word from Coach Floyd
H. Broiun of the championship
North Carolina College basket
ball team was that his star
guard, ] James "Chip" Sligh,
hadn’t made the grad* scholas
tically. More, Sligh returned to
NCC after a quarter’s absence.
He played the books as hard as
he played the ball and at quar
ter’s end, he came up winner
with a splendid average.
“Chip” Sligh today is a far
wiser young man than he was
two years ago. And if enrolling
in the current summer session
to make-up lost time is proof of
wisdom, "Chip” is continuing to
pil0 up points in his knowledge
argan.' NCC opponents on the
hardwood in 1956 may as well
start now building their plans
to check Chip, for he'll be in
there pitching. A graduate of
Adkin High School in his na
tive Winston-Salem, ' N. C.,
Sligh is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
James V. Sligh of 1818 Ken
tucky Ave. He played on the
NCC Eagles 1953 championship
team, sparking their offense on
many crucial occasions. He will
be twenty-years old in July.

Mgr. Casey Stengel calls him

a solid gold pinck hitter. He’s
terrific under pressure. Just

NEWCONBE
SAINT LOUIS
St. Louis’ newspapers had a
field day criticizing Big Don
Newcombe's mannerism of go
ing to the resin bag between
eveiTf pitch. They tried to label
him a showoff for the manner
ism which has delighted the
fans who root for the big fel
low each time at bat.
Newcombe will tell you it’s
no mannerism—this calling for
the I'esin bag so much, for his
reason is to keep him out of
court. Six years ago, in a
game against Philly at Ebbets
Field, the bat slipped out of
Newk’s hand and hit a specte-
tor. The woman claimed in
jury to her arm and sued for

SALE! FANS
$3,500. The case has Just been
settled out of court for $250.
Sa^^f Newk: “My hands i>er-
spire more than most guy*! I
have to go to the bag a lot;
sometimes two and three times
a piteh.”
When asked why others did
not do it, he said; “Other guys
use pine-tar on their bat hand
les. But I can’t use it because it
makes my hands too sticky and
I wouldn’t be able to piteh.”
Thus the mannerism will
stand. And it plus Newcombe’s
.405 hitting and hit
(11-1) make him cam of
biggest drawing canto in
ball.
