I've seen that at the library a couple of times and thumbed through it but haven't read it all. I didn't get onto the umpire angle until relatively recently, so maybe I'll check it out and read it through now. Thanks for the reminder!
Speaking of the Stars, an umpire for the TX Colored League in the '20s was briefly hired by the St. Louis Stars and the TCL guys thought so highly of him they outbid them to bring him back and made him chief of TCL umpires. Was a 19th century player who'd been around the game a Very Long Time.
