Swath Wack Wane: FOR Garrison Good big man tale
A fragment from 1944 era sports and league notes discusses the idea that a good big man outplays a good little man in boxing and baseball circles. It mentions Doughboy Lan DiStanta, the Christian Brothers Academy multi sport star, and notes about World War II era opponents and league rules. It also references Major League Baseball extensions on rosters, a 30 day wait for certain actions, and a 60 day delay for player applications, plus rain cancellations and partial game results from various cities.
