The San Francisco Public Library owns the photo morgue of the San Francisco News-Call Bulletin, a daily newspaper that covered the time period from the 1920s to 1965. Much of the San Francisco Historical Photograph Collection comes from the San Francisco News-Call Bulletin Photo Morgue. However, the morgue also includes statewide, national, and international subjects and people that have not been digitized or cataloged. When researchers order scans from the San Francisco News-Call Bulletin Photo Morgue,selections are cataloged and added to the online database.

June 10, 1938 -- There is nothing soft about girls' soft-ball. Here's the way it's done at Glen Park. Behind the plate is Louise Lutz and at bat is Veronica Alves. They are stars on the Glen Park outfit which is one of the teams in the Recreation Department soft-ball tournament for girls.
(P12 ALVES,-Z, A-Z)
