© The Hamden Chronicle - Thursday, July 15, 1954
A few months back we found this great 1954 photo of Ray Ramelli in the Hamden Historical Society's bound volumes of The Hamden Chronicle.

Ray's dad, Firefighter Al Ramelli, coached the Smokies, a Babe Ruth little league team sponsored by Hamden Paid Firemen's Sick Benefit Assn.  Ray was batboy for the Smokies that summer, as well as the Babe Ruth League All-Stars.  Ray joined the HFD team 16 years later.
