Greensburg to Get Baseball Diamond Soon
Greensburg will gain a community baseball diamond this summer in the Ringgold district. Babe Ruth League president M. J. Webber secured a free lease from E. R. Gelvin to use Gelvin land, with field preparation by the league and local contractor Norman Klipp loaning a roller and tractor. The field is planned as two regulation diamonds with 285 foot foul lines and a 310 foot center, aiming for completion by July for a potential early-season partial schedule.
