Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph appears with the article, "Troy Nine Faces Reds," Los Angeles Times, 27 Mar 1936: A13. Against a clear sky, Gonzales grins as he watches a pitch soar into the distance, "Trojans" emblazoned across his uniform. Joe Gonzales, speed ball thrower, will be pitching for USC against Stanford at Bovard Field. The Trojans have lost only one game this year. Text from newspaper caption: Judging from his beaming countenance, Joe Gonzales, ace right-handler of the Trojan pitching staff, has just set the batter down with three straight strikes, or maybe he's thinking of how he expects to fool Stanford's swatsmiths this afternoon when the Trojans and Indians open their local series at Bovard Field. Text from negative sleeve: 4483 - Joe Gonzales Pitcher - U.S.C 3/15/36 [stamped:] Mar 25 1936 Handwritten on negative: Joe Gonzales
