Lumberman Ben Cheney (right) poses with Joe Budnick, manager of the Seattle Cheney Studs team on October 10, 1954. There is an impressive array of trophies on display won by the Cheney Studs. Mr. Cheney was a philantrophist who loved sports. His generosity enabled thousands of local residents, most of all children, to participate in a variety of sporting activities, including baseball. The Seattle Cheney Studs team was composed primarily of current and recent high school baseball stars from the Puget Sound region. Photograph ordered by Cheney Lumber Co.
