Inscription/Marks: [Caption-Bismarck Tribune 08-28-1935 page06] Great negro Athlete Pitches Bismarck to Title. Satchel Paige. Base Balls are Cannon Balls when Satchel Paige Sizzles ‘Em Over. Combine the speed of Jesse Owens with . . . The Hop of Peacock (Ah Got Live Powah!), The Star Hurdler, and with –The dynamite in a Joe Louis Punch – That’s a Satchel Paige Delivery! Plenty of What-It-Takes Chucked Away In That Satchel! No Elmer. Not An Ethopian War Dance. Just Satchel Winding Up that Steel Spring In His Right Arm. Jack Rice. (Courtesy Wichita Beacon) Satchel Paige, Negro pitching wonder, chalked up his fourth national tournament triumph Tuesday night as the Bismarck club copped the national championship with a 5-2 victory over the Duncan, Okla., Cementers. The ebony hurler struck out 66 batters, allowed only 29 hits, and issued five bases on balls during the five games he was on the slab for Bismarck. Four of the games he started and in the fifth he went in to relieve Chet Brewer when the ace of the Kansas City Monarchs’ staff got into trouble.
