    As I had posted earlier,WCCM will be there Sat. and Sun. broadcasting
from JFK and Boarding House.I don't know who they will have on scene
anchoring their coverage,although it's almost safe to say that Frank
Sunday(Messina) will be there.Bob Ellis will be away in Pittsfield for
Spinners games Friday and Sat.nights.
