The local paper of the Huron Elks of the Basin League The HURONITE and THE DAILY PLAINSMAN provided substantial coverage of the club, including many photos (unfortunately, the microfilm versions are of such poor quality).  Nonetheless, even as placeholders for the real photos (one can always hope), a sample below :

Bush homer         

Left - Carl Bush, Huron first baseman, receives congratulations from Dean Scarborough (left) and Len Van De Hey (right) on his homer against Yankton.  It was Bush's 4th four-bagger of the season. Middle - Mitchell Kernels manager Joe Lutz and umpire Joe Stahl argue a call at second base in the Huron-Mitchell contest.  The heated discussion brought a response from the police (second from right).  Lutz was ejected and escorted off the field by lawmen.
