  • SummaryFour girls with "Brooklyn" sign shouting or cheering at head of crowd waiting for tickets outside Ebbets Field; billboard and 60 cent admission sign in background. Caption: "Dodger Fans, Cold but Loud: Not too many fans waited outside Ebbets Field bleachers gate in wind and cold today, but they made their voices heard, just before gates were thrown open, and their partisan preference is clear. In foreground are Avenue U Dodger Club members (left to right): Ann Caiazzo, 14 of 2111 E. 2d St.; Annette La Scala, 13, 2120 E. 2d St.; Diane Mezzasalma, 14, 406 Avenue U, and Marie Caiazzo, 16, sister of Ann. They're for -- guess who -- and they want to get in."
