I guess I'm stumped !! I don't remember the Mariners merging with the Chrome Domes....Where's Chaffee when you need him? Or J.C.?

I thought the remnants of the Mariners joined the West Allis Wranglers( oh my god, from under what rock did I pull that one?) or they joined the TILTIES!

Will someone clarify for us brain dead dudes from the tundra (and it's cold here today)

There was a contingent of Mariners that went to DesPlaines Vaguard in 72. Some that went to Blue Stars in 73. And a number went to Kilties after 74. I was not aware of any Racine Scouts-Mariners merger.

Thanks Dan!

I thought I was right ..I would have remembered a merger with the Mariners and someone else..I guess the Thing took care of all of the hype..

UNCLE Z:

Nancy (LancerFi) sez that # 19 is part of North Star! Shouldn't the DCM contingent get credit for that..That was one of my 1st ! Nancy should know!!

I know my nephew would get a kick out of this..We need to get Lee Portz and Jim (Chico) Lopez into this..

Pat

:P :P :P

#16 should be the Buckeye Caballeros..I know they went back to being called the Cleveland Cabs just before they shut down, but there is still an award at DCM that was put up by the Cleveland gang..I don't think the Glassmen had anything to do with them, Dan..That's the old Maumee corps getting together with another Toledo group..Sorry, gang..Too much frost on my pumpkin!
