A sticker on the back of the print says " The World Book Encylopedia, University of Missouri, School of Journalism, 19th Annual Photo Competition." According to the rest of the entry the photo was entered in the Newspaper Feature catagory with the title "Swinging Sister." Photo shows a group of nuns in a park. One of the nuns is swinging a baseball bat at an incoming baseball. Just behind her is another nun squatting on the ground with a catcher's mitt on her hand waiting for her fellow sister to miss the ball. A group of nuns is standing in the background near a palm tree watching the action. The nuns are all wearing full, traditional habits.
