  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school.

  • Negro Leaguers in Service If They Can Fight and Die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, They Can Play Baseball in America
    Issue 37 July 2015 Negro Leaguers in Service If they can fight and die on Okinawa and Guadalcanal in the South Pacific, they can play baseball in America. Baseball Commissioner AB "Happy" Chandler This edition of the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter is dedicated to all the African- American baseball players who served with the armed forces during World War II. More than 200 players from baseball’s Negro Leagues entered military service between 1941 and 1945. Some served on the home front, while others were in combat in Europe, North Africa and the Pacific. These were the days of a segregated military and life was never easy for these men, but, for some, playing baseball made the summer days a little more bearable. Willard Brown and Leon Day (the only two black players on the team) helped the OISE All-Stars win the European Theater World Series in 1945, Joe Greene helped the 92nd Infantry Division clinch the Mediterranean Theater championship the same year, Jim Zapp was on championship teams in Hawaii in 1943 and 1944, and Larry Doby, Chuck Harmon, Herb Bracken and Johnny Wright were Midwest Servicemen League all- stars in 1944. Records indicate that no professional players from the Negro Leagues lost their lives in service during WWII, but at least two semi-pro African-American ballplayers made the ultimate sacrifice. Grady Mabry died from wounds in Europe in December 1944, and Aubrey Stewart was executed by German SS troops the same month. With Brown and Day playing for the predominantly white OISE All-Stars, Calvin Medley pitching for the Fleet Marine Force team in Hawaii, and Don Smith pitching alongside former major leaguers for the Greys in England, integrated baseball made its appearance during the war years and quite possibly paved the way for the signing of Jackie Robinson.

    CONCURRENT RESOLUTIONS—DEC. 22, 2005 119 STAT. 3677 as they may designate if, in their opinion, the public interest shall warrant it. Agreed to November 18, 2005. BARNSTORMING AFRICAN-AMERICAN Dec. 22, 2005 BASKETBALL TEAMS—RECOGNITION [H. Con. Res. 59] Whereas, even though African-Americans were excluded from playing in organized white-only leagues, the desire of African- Americans to play basketball could not be repressed; Whereas, unlike baseball, which had Negro leagues, basketball had no organized black leagues, thus forcing blacks to take to the road out of necessity; Whereas among the most well-known black barnstorming teams who found their beginnings in the 1920s were the New York Renaissance (or Rens), the Harlem Globetrotters, the New York Enforcers, the Harlem Clowns, the Harlem Road Kings, the Harlem Stars, the Harlem Ambassadors, and the Philadelphia Tribunes; Whereas, despite the racism they faced, Negro basketball teams overcame great obstacles to play the game before black players were allowed to play in the National Basketball Association in the early 1950s; Whereas the New York Rens became one of the first great basketball dynasties in the history of the game, compiling a 2,588–539 record in its 27-year existence, winning 88 straight games in the 1932–33 season, and winning the 1939 World Professional Championship; Whereas the Harlem Globetrotters proved that they were capable of beating professional teams like the World Champions Min- neapolis Lakers led by basketball great George Mikan in 1948; Whereas the barnstorming

  • Marques Haynes a Unique Talent for Basketball Took Him from Small- Town American to the World
    Marques Haynes A unique talent for basketball took him from small- town American to the world. He’s a true Globetrotter Chapter 1 — 1:00 Introduction Announcer: Marques Haynes played basketball for more than 50 years, weathering bumpy roads, drafty buses and not-so-subtle racism. He logged 12,000 games and entertained millions in 106 countries with his trick shots and masterful dribbling. Marques was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, representing all of the great black players of his era— like Goose Tatum and Meadowlark Lemon, who played for touring teams before minorities were allowed in the NBA. Marques’ talent got its start in Sand Springs, Oklahoma in a three-bedroom house with a mother who preached education first and then basketball. The wallpaper of that three-bedroom house consisted of the Tulsa World and the Tulsa Tribune. Marques Haynes became known as the world’s greatest dribbler. He tells his story in this oral history presentation made possible by the generosity of foundations that believe in preserving Oklahoma’s legacy one voice at a time on VoiceofOklahoma.com. Chapter 2 — 8:25 From the Beginning John Erling: My name is John Erling and today’s date is December 8, 2011. Marques would you please state your full name please? Marques Haynes: Marques Oriole Haynes. JE: Where did your middle name come from? MH: I don’t know. I haven’t found that out. JE: Your date of birth? MH: March 10, 1926.
