Play opens 28-Jun and 30-Jun with exhibitions at Rutherford Field. The site, surrounded by Woodland, Daniel and Gouverneur avenues and state highway S-3, was renamed Tamblyn Field in 1958 and is now home to St. Mary High School football and baseball. The Rutherford Babe Ruth League played there from its inception in 1954 until its move to Memorial Park after the 2001 season.
Harry Usher of Kiwanis throws a perfect game 9-Aug vs. Pastori. Usher, who graduated from Rutherford High School in 1957 and Brown University in 1961, went on to become second in command at the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee (1984) and commissioner of the United States Football League (1985).
No tournament team plays in 1951, a provisional year according to Little League rules. However, league champion Rotary participates in a tournament of champions sponsored by The (Passaic) Herald-News.
