Description	The Tampico (IL) Tornado Nov. 1, 1879: "The base ball mania has at last struck this town." See also Aug. 30, 1879, for playing in the streets. It appears that although some tried to organize a bbc in Tampico, none was organized through 1882. See same, May 22, 1880. Same, Sept. 22, 1883 mentions the Tampico Tigers BBC. The town, associated with President Reagan's boyhood, had 424 residents in 1880.
