Dutch Fork Baseball League (S.C.)
Biographical notes:
Recreational baseball team founded ca. 1933 by Wilbur E. Taylor, of Prosperity, S.C., who served as the organization's first president, and Addison Bostain, Sr., who served as second president; beginning at the age of fifty years old, A. Bostain, Sr., pitched in the League for more than ten years; the group took its name from that of a student team at University of South Carolina founded ca. 1931, when Bostain's son, Addison Bostain, Jr., and other students native to the vicinity of eastern Newberry County and Chapin in upper Lexington County, S.C. formed an intramural team; Jack Crawford, then Physical Education Director at USC, is credited with suggesting the name of the Dutch Fork team.
