SPB-60 1950 OVERUSAGE All SPB 60 - 1950 Managers, Our report this season is very good for this season. First off, the following managers had no overuse during 1950: Asbury Park Titans (A. Schweitzer) East Kenosha Lakers (D. Lauer) Frankfort Frigates (G. Plunkitt) Joliet Jakes (T. Baxter) Massilon Tigers (J. Ungashick) Mound City Saints (R. Applegate) Riverside Robbers (J.

Elliott - 5 AB (1) Raleigh Tarheels (S. Lehman) 1 Game J. Vander Meer - 1 G (1) St. Claire Shores Mariners (V. Onstott) 5 Games B. Ramazotti - 28 AB (5) That is it! A terrific effort from everyone There was some overuse that was forgiven for the Wabash Six. Manager Bill Lanke missed playing half of the season and his team was handled by the league, during his illness. Since Bill really was not in charge for 50% of the year, that overusage will be dropped. =========================================================== SPB-60 1950 USE OR LOSE All SPB 60 Managers, The following players are lost to their teams due to not being used 50% of the time.
