Brooklyn Hispano
In 1934, Salcedo signed with Hispano and would play most of his career with the Brooklyn team, beginning as a center forward before moving to right forward. While with Hispano, Salcedo would play with Walter Bahr, another great American player. In his first season, Salcedo scored eleven goals, putting him sixth on the league’s scoring list. This led to his selection to the U.S. national team for an unofficial game with Scotland on May 19, 1935. In 1937, Hispano went to the ASL title game, only to fall to the Kearny Scots.

“If the British prose style is Churchillian, America is the tobacco auctioneer, the barker; Runyon, Lardner, W.W., the traveling salesman who can sell the world the Brooklyn Bridge every day, can put anything over on you and convince you that tomatoes grow at the South Pole.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
