      General note

      Photo caption from published version of 47-437_001: "NEAR-RIOT ENDS BALL GAME - Angered by a close decision called at home plate by Umpire Gordon Bradshaw in the Saturday game between London and Kitchener, fans mobbed the umpire at the end of the game. Kitchener Panthers lost by a score of 7 to 3. Top photo [47-437_001] shows the huge crowd as they waited for Umpire Bradshaw to come out of the dug-out while the lower photo [not in envelope] shows some fans as they dashed out on the field during the sixth inning when Harry Psutka was called out on a dash from second to home."

      General note

      47-437_001 appeared on Page 81 of Kitchener - 125 Years, the Thursday, June 21, 1979 anniversary edition of the newspaper, as part of the article: "Individual athletes earned admiration."

      General note

      Photo caption from published commemorative version of 47-437_001: "NEAR RIOT - Kitchener athletes are not alone in attracting wide attention. City sports fans have had their share of the spotlight in the past, including this near riot at the old Victoria Park baseball grandstand in 1946. When fans took strong exception to an umpire's decision during a junior baseball playoff between teams from Kitchener and Hull, Que., police were called to escort the umpires from the field"

      General note

      Caption from commemorative edition contradicts information from published 1947 version of the photo.
