Hall of Merit — A Look at Baseball's All-Time Best Thursday, November 10, 2005Any info on the Chicago Mills?Hi there, My name is Jennifer and I am trying to search for any information on the Chicago Mills baseball team from the 30’s into the early 40’s. My late grandfather (Ralph Miller Billows) was a member of this team and I trying to do some research, to get any information possible on his playing time. Unfortunately, I don’t know the years he played as I only have an old photograph to work from. If you could help direct me to a location where I could find information on this team I would truly appreciate it. I would love to be able to put something together for Christmas for my grandmother. Any help you could give would be truly appreciated. Thank you, Please reply to her directly at msmapper1@yahoo.com, and let us know here too if you come up with anything interesting . . . I received the following note today, can any of you help? ——-Original Message——- Hi there, My name is Jennifer and I am trying to search for any information on the Chicago Mills baseball team from the 30’s into the early 40’s.

1. JoeD has the Imperial March Stuck in His Head Posted: November 10, 2005 at 02:10 AM (#1725885)None of the baseball stories turns up when I include "billows" or "billow" or "bellows" or "ralph" in the search.
--
The earliest baseball hit is 1937 May 8, dateline Memphis May 7.
"[Chicago American] Giants Invade Memphis' Park"
The "Probable Lineups" for opening day in Memphis, a twin bill, include 11 men for each team, 8 plus 3 pitchers (all batting ninth).
". . . The opening game will perhaps see Willie Foster, brother of the immortal Rube, . . .
The Chicago nine has been working in this vicinity for the past several weeks [spring training] but returned home last week to open their own home season with the Chicago Mills, a strong white team."
