Some of the older residents here will probably remember when the mill was running and some of the millers, but to the younger generation who recall the Old Mill only as a rendezvous for chickarees, this may draw a picture of the Old Mill as it used to be. The Old Mill is really old. It was built by Anson Call of Bountiful in about 1854, not long after Centerville was first settled.

By Clint Barber In the opinion of Hort Evans, baseball will come back to Centerville after the war, to a certain extent; but whether it will be as it was in the old days, he couldnt say off-han- d. For one thing, he says, conditions were better in those days. True, we played on rocky diamonds often, but the diamond was right in the middle of town, so that every boy was near it, and they soon became interested. The first Centerville diamond was where the church house lawn is now, not on Golden Allens lot as is believed. Home plate was just slightly west of the chapel, and the outfield was across the road in Waltons lot, and also where Allens and Bloods houses are. There was a row of locust trees in front of the chapel, so there was little danger of broken windows. Hort managed his first Center- ville team in 1919. Members of that and later teams were Harvey Hancock, Fritz Rich, Lank and Dave Roberts, Art Beers, Paul Smith, Cal Wooley, Milley Millen, Wally Coombs, Harold Randall, and Elmer Barber, among others. In Horts opinion, Elmer and Dave would have made good major leaguers if they had had ambition Alto play baseball as a career. though we never won the title, he says, we always had contenders.
