Army v. P. A. A.

From its Gold Coast correspondent, Henry B. Cole, TIME received this report:

"Baseball made its first debut in West Africa last week when the United States Army thumped the Pan American Airways and sent the gate fees to buy a Spitfire. The P.A.A. boys vented their spleen by yelling 'Moider da Umpires' and 'Trow da bum out.'

"The Africans, spectator majority, were sadly disappointed. They had never seen a baseball game before and it baffled them just as American psychology baffles African mentality."
