Dodgers Eye El Monte Site Amid Chavez Ravine Fight
Dodgers owner Walter O’Malley reportedly eyed an El Monte site near the San Bernardino Freeway as a contingency in case Chavez Ravine fails to secure a June referendum. The plan would strengthen leverage with department store options in play, while Dominguez remains a favored future park location as freeway access links develop. Also mixed in were notes on Sonny Liston’s ascent, Pancho Gonzales’s dominance, and the American track team prep for Moscow with Russia, highlighting early outdoor marks and projections.
