Your -a A Play Ground News The Peanut League play-offs were won by the Redlegs of Meadowood Park. The Redlegs defeated the Braves, which were the champions of the Main Park in the semi-finals. The Redlegs then overwhelmed a team which was made up of the Dodgers and the Lions from the 22nd Street diamond for the championship of the Speedway Parks. The 22nd Street team was composed of many first-year ballplayers. In a few years we expect a real strong team from this area. A most-val-uable-player was chosen by the players and coaches of each team. The following boys were chosen: Redlegs, Tom Ray; Yellow jackets, Mark Leonard; Indians, Jack Ehle; Tigers, Dennis DeLong; Braves, Jessy Cassidy; Blue Flashes, Bobby McAllister; Yellowjackets (Main Park), Eddie Goddard; Dodgers, David Lloyd; Lions, O’Donnell; Dodgers (22nd Street), Greg Kelleher.

I, personally, would like to thank Miss Middaught, Miss Allen, Mr. Mattingly and my old backstop, Jim “Gabby Hartnett” Richwine and the kids for which this program was originated.
