Rebuilt Prospect Park Baseball Diamond Shines New Look
Pros pect park got a refreshed baseball diamond this week after a volunteer crew rebuilt it last Saturday. Officials and players praised the improvement at the first minor game Monday night. Stanley Construction donated sand, Mansell Nellis supplied a grader, Ken Marshall drove it, and Parks Supt. Harold Townsley borrowed the town truck. Gordon's Hardware provided wire to patch the backstop. Dozens of volunteers used shovels and wheelbarrows while a new plate was installed to finish the upgrade. Ontario mining output rises 24.5 percent in 1967 to 1.1928 billion dollars, led by nickel, copper and iron ore.
