ITEM 6 · THE NATIONAL HALLS READ FOR THE TIE — THE SAME EMPTY ROLL, PRINTED AS TESTED

The checklist's enumeration runs the national halls sport by sport — Cooperstown, Canton, Springfield, Toronto — and asks of each the same question with the same standard: a member born, raised, or seated on this ground. The run reports them in the checklist's order, as tests: Baseball (Cooperstown): no member with a Walkerton tie; the town's baseball record is the town team's and the schools', told in Sports, and no professional career from this ground reaches the hall's threshold of documentation. Football (Canton): no member; the same standard, the same result. Basketball (Springfield) and hockey (Toronto): no member of either, hockey's test being nearly formal on this ground. Beyond the sport halls:The item closes DUG: the enumeration run, sport by sport, with the empty roll printed.

Principal sources: the national halls' membership records, tie-tested November 2026; the Awards & Honors and W-11 Urey marker addendum (the town's actual hall-class record).
