THE NEW YORK TIMES, March 21, 1934

* Babe Didrikson Zaharias publicity stunt
* Pitches major league baseball inning


The sport's section has an interesting report during the 1934 MLB spring training season with an article headed: "DODGERS CONQUER ATHLETICS BY 4-2" "Miss Didrikson Pitches First Inning for Losers, Holding Rivals Scoreless" and more with photo of her in uniform. (see)
Other news, sports advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions.  Nice condition.
