This game in June of 1923 was not the first fats-against-leans game that I've seen. And on holidays such as Independence Day, you might also find foot-races going on — one for the "fats" and one for the "leans." Anyway, in this case the
News has left us with a record of the body type of a number of Hobart's male citizens, in case we had no photograph and were wondering!

Hobart News, June 28, 1923.
Sorry I failed to get the beginning of the story.
As we see from the little item below the summary of the game, Hobart had another team called the Cardinals.

Back when I was talking about the Frank family, I wondered about the
Mulfinger connection. This item in the right-hand column helps a little. Not much.
