Old Sports Illustrated article from 1969. I'm sure this has been posted before, but I ran across it again and thought some people may enjoy reading it.

I enjoyed that. Thanks.

Also, the article mentions a young Alan Kiehle. Who remembers him?

No question that Crane developed a more wide open game as he got older. He was a great shot maker, but we never knew it before.
