Memories Of Omid S1 Grounds Centered In One Lone Tree
The faded reminiscence recalls Sningey and Frank Mute as leaders of Indianapolis days. The old grounds near New York and Arsenal avenues near the northeast corner of the block hold faded signs and a lone tree serving as a memorial to the Hoosier batsmen and young fans who once filled the bleachers. As new houses rise, the tree and its makeshift benches keep alive a four year memory of when the community gathered to watch cricket-like swings and hopeful cheers.
