"Sticks" Lehman of the Village at Winona Blue Laws strikes well, sending the ball out of the photograph. "Big Czech" Petrosky of the Warsaw Fleetfoots is behind. "Hammer" Locke is officiating in the straw hat, and the tally keeper and a member of the Elkhart Bonneyville Millers
look on in the background. The three-club round robin tourney was played at Tabernacle Field, the home of the Blue Laws. The third base line in the foreground consists of sprinkled sawdust in honor of Billy Sunday, famed base ball player/preacher known for "The Sawdust Trail." The
statue in the far distance to the left is known as "The Student," which has been a fixture on the Winona landscape for over 100 years. June 12, 2004 at the Billy Sunday Festival in Winona Lake, Indiana.
