* Lowenstein is trying to get LIFE magazine to write a story about Dottie to help revive the league. Kit asks if he mentioned her and Lowenstein replies that he told the story of how the scout didn't even want to bring her along, but Dottie wouldn't go without her. Kit looks utterly dejected and even Mae looks like she feels bad for her (though Doris seems to think it was hilarious).

** When Dottie reveals that Bob is dead, she doesn't even have to finish the sentence, and Marla isn't even shocked, just sad. Dottie's reaction to learning that Evelyn died is the same. They're at that age where their contemporaries dying is a regular occurrence.

* After the tryouts, nearly every woman has either left the field or gone to sit with her team...but one lone person, Shirley Baker, is still standing in front of the posted lists, helplessly rocking back and forth. The coach angrily berates Shirley, who's near tears but won't say why. Another player, Helen, realizes what's happening--Shirley doesn't know how to read and can't find her name. While it's quickly resolved in a happy way, the anguish and shame on Shirley's face is palpable, especially when you realize that she's having to confess her illiteracy in front of a huge crowd.
