Anyone remember Mifflin Field?

Received this the other day. It's a piece of the goal post from the final game at Mifflin Field, which Columbia beat Lancaster High School, 26-0. Touchdowns were scored by Musser (2), Walk and John (1). The date of the game was Oct. 19, 1935 and the coach of the team was Sam Angle and the team captain was E. Johns.

Janson's Field was also home field for the Columbia High School back in the 1920's , which we have a ticket stub for at the museum . Thanks Barry for putting historic Columbia relics to show on your site , nice touch.

This brings back memories. I remember playing baseball at Mifflin Field back in my CBAA days. On the first day of the season, there would be parade of all the teams and we would march to Mifflin field where the first game of the season would be played. It was a much simpler time.
