Below is a team pic showing the eventual '52 Pony WS champs in Washington, Pa. Not sure which one is Mike Wheat (6th from left, maybe). Joe Horlen is about the smallest guy on the team, wearing a warm-up jacket. Immediately after this pic was taken, Horlen tossed a nifty shutout as San Antonio, Tx defeated San Bernardino, Ca for his 1st of 2 wins in the WS.
Rudy Davalos, Jr was also on this team. Eventually, Davalos became a very successful Athletic Director at the Univ. of New Mexico after several coaching stints, including the NBA Spurs.

Cool photo, Bob! Joel was a physical specimen back then.
