Chancellor Hunter throwing first ball opening the season

Date
  • 1937
Description
  • Home Game
  • Chancellor Fredrick M. Hunter, head of the Oregon State System of Higher Education, opens the Northern Division of the Pacific Coast conference baseball season by throwing out the first ball for the Oregon State-Oregon game at Corvallis which the latter won 7-1. The opening celebration honored Carl Lodell, second from left, who was retiring from the graduate managership after 16 years of service. Behind Dr. Huner is Percy Locey, former Olympic club coach, who later became an OSC faculty member. Opening day records were broken with 2000 fans attending. The photo was published in the 1938 Beaver Yearbook, page 198. Note: There are a couple of other pictures in the database that go with this one. Also, pictures of the opening day parade are also probably part of this sequence.
