My Dad, the Doctor, had a few of the players as patients over the years.
Triangle Park, the origin of their name, I have been at many times. My Brother, Dean Shannon Dooley, went to Steele High School, played basketball and track. He was a high jumper and broad jumper. Steele had no track, a downtown school, surrounded by commercial buildings. They practiced and held their meets at Triangle Park.
Dayton was famous for many things, General Motors, National Cash Register, and other manufacturing plants. Charles Kettering lived in Dayton. Among other things, he invented the electric starter for cars. The Wright Brothers were from Dayton.
I grew up and around so much history that I didn't realize the importance of it until later life. I delivered newspapers on occasions to Orville Wright. Thought nothing of it at the time.
I remember being in the Navy, my first cruise to Japan, went in to a store in Tokyo, far away from home, first things I saw, a cash register, NCR, made a few blocks from my home. It made the world much smaller.
