Hunter gets due recognition

I was happy to read that The Spokesman-Review recognized Herb Hunter’s accomplishments as a sports announcer for the Spokane Indians in Sunday’s paper on June 13 (“Voices of summer).

I hope the Spokane Hall of Fame committee learned something from this article and finally elects this well-deserving person to this prestigious honor. James P. Barbieri, Spokane Indians 1963-1969, Spokane
