Neil Hafen ~~~ Basketball Star


Neil Hafen 























Is that Odell Christiansen as the referee?

Neil, obviously, much older than High School age!

Location: Old Armory State Street and Main.

Alice told me the story behind this picture. 

The merchants of Mt. Pleasant were sponsoring this game for some occasion. 

Neil didn't have any basketball shorts, 

so Alice cut off a pair of her "bloomers" 

(that's what she called them)

 and gave them to Neil to wear. 

When Neil came out on the basketball floor, 

there were whoops and whistles all over the building.
