Description
Freckle-faced Ricky Gearhart, 11, took only five minutes to cop the Los Angeles County Parks and Recreation Department's junior marble championship at Rosewood Park, East Los Angeles. A slim field held the competition down to five shooters and Rickey, his tongue stuck out, made fast work of knocking all 13 marbles out of the ring. Photo dated: May 31, 1958.
