iodic of the twin bill being n twl-1 behind the plate, but who wni re
light affair at G o'clock, with the' cently shifted to third base; Kimo
aeeond Bit to get under way at
8:30.
So far, this season, the colorful
Randolph field Ramblers have lieen
the only aggregation able to take
the measure of the All-Stars, who
•re showing improvement with each
game. Their most recent victory
was an 8-4 win over the potent
Buccaneers of Corpus Chrlsti, Sun-
day, April 10.
Spark plug of f.onnle Greer's
1044 edition of bunel>allcrs is one
Ernest Rublo, Lntin-Amjrlcan short-
•top, who not only hnndles every-
thing that comes his way flaw-
lessly, but wlio Is also a power
et the plate. Tills youngster Is due
to gain recognition as probably the
outstanding short gardener of this
section ere the season ends.
Other players due to contribute
much to the success of the All-
Slurs are Clarence Muse, whose
main position heretofore has been
Johnson, co-manager, who holds
down tho keystone sack; Cecil,
speedy right fielder, and Sam Veil,
slugging left gardener.
The mainstays of the mound
oorp are C. ("Cayute") Miller,
young lefthander; Jack Holmes,
playing manager; and a mounds-
man with plenty savvy, Reams,
who has Seen service with the
Cincinnati Clowns of the Negro
American league and Rnlph Ram-
sey, a local boy with a world of
curve.
The Miners ore well known In
this section and year after year
come up with strong aggregations.
Colorful, fast and packed wiili
sluggers, they nie always excep-
tionally tough for ltcnl teams to
handle.
Teams desiring games with the
All-Stars should contact Lonnie
Greer, business manager at 1922

SAN ANTONIO baseball fans will have their second oppor-
tunity of the season to see outstanding members of Negro
"big league" baseball in action tonight (Friday) and tomor-
row night, as the New York Cubans, members of the Negro
National hbgue, meet the Kansas City Monarchs. always one
of the nation's ranking teams, in a two-game series at Tech
field.
The Cubans, managed by base-
ball wise Alex Ponipez, wlio niil
be making their second appearance
in Texas in history, are said to
liave, this year, the strongest ag-
gregation that Pompeii has gath-
ered and brought to this country
in his 05 years of connection with
the game. And that's saying plen-
ty, as the Cubans all through the
3care have fielded outstanding ag-
gregations.
Featuring a lineup of fast, sure
fielders and an array of long dis-
tance clouters, the Cuban team this
season. Is expected to break the
long monopoly that the Monarchs
have held in Negro basebail as their
early season showing attests that
they arc definitely of champion-
ship calibre.
"Wee" Willie Sherdel, a St. Loui,
Cardinal Immortal.
Other aces of the staff are
"Schoolboy" Howard, Barney Mor-
ris. Pat Scantleberry, Vic Green-
idge and Luis Taint.
ltarnhlll closed a winning season
last year by shutting </ut the great
Satchel Paige, and the Monarchs,
2-0 in the final game of the 1!)13
season.
The Monarchs, who appeared
here last week and were defeated
by the Cincinnati Clowns, are no-
toriously slow starters, and their
defeat is by no means a true meas-
ure of their ability. They are
toughest when the chips are dona,
and their recent defeats during the
training season bodes no good for
opponents from here out. They are
Leading the array of hitters are sure to be out to avenge the dam-
Xavier Perez, Eniii Brooks, and
Clare Duany, and they are well
supported by Louis Louden, Gil
Garride and "Nee" Rodriquez.
The mound staff is paced by
tiny impo Barnliill, one of the
smallest pitchers in organized base-
ball, and who close followers of
the game favorably compare with
age to their prestige in the eyes of
Texas fans, and are sure to go
stri"tly for blood against the Cu-
bans.
Some of the finest baseball seen
here in recent years is expected
during this series.
Game time for both games is
8:15.
