LITTLE LEAGUE OPENS— Mayor John S. Ruggles officially
opened the local Little League baseball season Friday by throw
ing in the first ball (shown in air at top of photo) during cere
monies held at the league’s new park on Morganton Road.
Massed in the background, around the pitcher’s mound are
members of the four Little League and four Minor League teams
taking part in the organized program, along with the girls who
represented each of the teams as “queens” in events held Friday
and Saturday. Prepared to catch the first ball is Carl Hash,
pitcher for the Reds, who pitched and won in the first game,
earning the right to keep the ball as a souvenir. Other details
on “Little League Day” which was observed Friday and Satur
day will be found elsewhere in today’s paper.
