A start on a proper rnar is pctomimj of a need daily. With 390 Little Leaguers on sponsnrea irama jui ut k Re started on the 1959 summer baseball season the problem ot locating a safe sensible place for them to play becomes uownrignt acme. Our intended Mills Little League Park will be only a temporary stop gap for this need. A welcome one. But next year weji neco more room. ' Worrying about next year and its inherent problems is something that can wait until next year, however. Now it behooves every one to pitch in and help get Mills Little League Park in operation as soon as possible. Help from the trade unions, car penters, plumbers, painters, etc. is sorely needed. And it goes with out saying that strong, willing backs will be welcome. The Little Leaguers themselves will be pressed into service : . . on a "pick up everything inai isn i growing" type of operation. There are stands to move, standi to build, fences to be installed, backstops to erect, diamonds to be cut, weeds to be pulled, plenty to do.

He says: Dear Wayne: Just a note to thank all of you for your wonderful courtesies dur ing my brief stay in Klamath Falls. The trip to that fine city will certainly live in my memory a long time, especially every time I look at my ten-gallon hat. 1 want to thank you, too, for spend ing so much time with us and for writing so many kind things. It was indeed gratifying to as sociate with a writer who has his own honest opinions. Enclosed you will find the cup pings from the Alumni Game back in Madison, which I thought you might enjoy reading. Actually we had the game on ice, 33 to 9, by the end of the third period so we didn't bother to play in the fourth period as we left that up to the varsity fifth and sixth stringers, which we had on our club. Once again, my sincere thanks for everything you did to make our stay so enjoyable. I do hope we can get to visit you again real soon. Sincerely, Legs Harry M. Golden, Sports Editor of the Madison Capital Times, says: "The play of Elroy Hirsch is really something. Despite his many years on the gridiron he is still a great offensive football play er .. . seems to have alt the speed of years ago and on the quick run and cut pass is unstop pable . . . Hirsch Is no kid any more . . . amazing to see him in action."
