The Tribune photo, dated May 14, 1953, has the following caption printed on the back "Harry M.

They are (front row left to right) Russell Syman, John Gates, Hunter McCreary, James Carney, David White, and Arthur Crist and (back rown), left to right), Karl Brueckner, David Skogstrom, Marshall Jacobs, and Donald Breuner."
