Hard for me not to share great baseball pictures when I receive them. THe 1953 Rockford Town team played on a field by the rail road tracks near Maple street. The land was purchased by the Rockford American Legion. To the best of my knowledge here are the names:
Front Row: Spud Schultz, Dick Traen, Roger Schultz
Middle Row: Unknown, Freddie Vergin, Daryl Vergin, Dwayne Vergin, Paul Hubler, Vernon Conzet, Harpo Lemmage
Back Row: Dick Anderson, Junior Loeffler, Elroy Rux, Lyle Thingvold, Windy Dixon,
Front row Dick Traen was a good friend of the Becchetti boys on Lake Sarah.
The Traen family moved from So. E. Minneapolis where we met. Many remember Dick as long time Teacher and Coach at Delano HS.
