WHS baseball team, 1916

Description

"The Wakefield High School Baseball team held its first practice of the spring season on the park (Common) on April 6, 1916 under the direction of 'new' coach Bob Lane. According to the Wakefield Daily Item, the team made a 'fine showing' during the fall season, but 'with a coach, should make a better on and win the Middlesex League cup.' Team members included captain Eugene Sullivan, Thomas Dignan, Caswell Heustis, Frank Reid, John Kalaher, Warren Branch, Arthur McLeod, George Lane, Christie Barrett, and Maurice Donovan. The team also listed a Law and Clemons, without a first name."
