The champs in 1971

Each week The Daily News is reprinting older photos, most from its files, as well as featuring past photo on its Facebook page. Today’s Throwback Thursday photo is of Babe Ruth All-Stars of Iron Mountain teammates Earl Huotari and Brian Despines holding the championship banner after returning from winning the 1971 state championship in Utica, Mich. Dean Ruohamaki, another team member, can be seen just behind the banner. Team members are planning a reunion this summer to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the championship. (Submitted photo)
