THE DETROIT FREE PRESS, Michigan, October 9, 1961 

* Whitey Ford  breaks scoreless inning streak

This 44 page newspaper has a 3 column headline on the front page above the masthead: "Yankees Whip Reds, 7-0 To Take 3-1 Series Lead" with related photos.

Page 35 has a four column headline that reads: "Ford Pushes Cincy To Edge of Cliff, 7-0" with photo of Ford in action. (see)

Tells of game 4 of the World Series in which Whitey Ford extended his World Series consecutive scoreless inning streak to 32 breaking Red Sox hurler Babe Ruth's previous record of 29 2/3 innings.

Other news of the day throughout. A few small binding holes along spine, two library stamps in masthead, otherwise in good condition.
