long time resident of the Acton area who is an avid sportsman and has a real interest in baseball William Black who lives on the Comer Line is years young Black has a good memory for most games played in this area However one specific Hardball game he attended at Prospect Park when he was just 10 years old has been a puzzle to him for many years This was an exhibition game of Negro or all black players that originated somewhere in the USA Black noted that this was a memorable game to see The players were great athletes moving with a precision that not often seen at that time Discounting the years this game was played in 1911 or 1912 so come on you old- timers come up with some facts for Black Have a good day AW TRENTON TKMMST mum nam MM un4 p4n Weekday Saturdays BY APPOINTMENT CANADIAN
