         BILL TOWN OR BUST!

     My wife and I packed up our 4-year-
old grandson and headed for "Bill-Town"
yesterday.
     That's the nick name for the city of
Williamsport which is known
internationally as the home of the Little
League World Series!
      Just to set the record straight the
Little League was born in Williamsport
but the stadiums that host the annual
competition are located across the river
in South Williamsport.
       We like to see one or two of the
games each year. I like to see kids from
around the world playing baseball, I
also have a distant relative, now
deceased, who played on the Maynard
Midgets, the first winning team of
the Little League World Series!
       This is a treat that should not
be missed. There is no charge for
admission to any of the games! Your
only expenses are limited to the food
or souvenirs you want to enjoy.
       If you miss any of the series
you can still spend enjoyable time
cruising on the Hiawatha, a paddle
wheel style vessel that sails a
beautiful section of the Susquehanna
River where, many years ago, logs
were floated on the water to saw mills
in the region.
       The series of series games has
just begun so there's plenty of time
to catch the real "boys of summer."
       Hope you do and that all your
NEWS is good!
