Local Sports Views and Golf Ball Origins
Eastern Heights residents object to night softball at Harmon Field and may file a complaint to owner J C Crisp. Elyria High lineman Rothard Buterbaugh starred Friday despite a bout. Louie Chervenka Jr displays a 26 inch carp, not bass, in Black River. Early golf games used a leather feather ball, then rubber core balls led to the term highball for whiskey and soda.
