Description

The "Brazilian American" Sept. 17, 1921 issue, p. 14 has the Sao Paolo club challenging the Rio De Janeiro BBC for a championship. The long article gives the names of the players, who appear to be Anglo.

The 1920 Year Book of American Chamber of Commerce of Brazil, p. 47 reports that Rio and Sao Paolo BBCs played each other in 1920.

"Our Navy" vol. 16 (1922) details several baseball games at Rio between the Rio A. C. and the club of the USS Nevada. The Rio club players all had Anglo names.

A 1925 navy report has the American colony in Rio playing baseball on July 4th.
