It seems he played minor league (class D) in Pennsylvania State Association. He played for two teams in two years. He spent a year and half with Oil City Oilers (feed into the Pittsburg Pirates) and half season with Butler Yankees (feed into the Yankees of course). I was wondering if anyone knows where I can see a team photo of the Butler Yankees during this time or game pics (which I don’t think game pics exist due to the league being class D and it being 1942). I’ve tried Google and have come up empty. Any help would be appreciated.
PM me, what info you have as I am currently in between both towns, and I will go through the old papers at the library and see if I can find anything (it's all on microfilm, so it may take a few days.)
