Girls hurt easily reports L official
NEWARK, N J. Girls get hurt more easily, an executive of Little League baseball says, and that’s why they should not be allowed to play. Creighton Hale, executive vice president of Little League Inc. of Williamsport, Pa., testified at a hearing on a discrimination suit filed by the state. He cited bone strength, reaction time, and movement differences as reasons for excluding girls, while a league attorney argued the differences are not sufficient.
