Vintage 1950's photo...Erin Cleaners Baseball Team

This is a vintage 1950's photo of a Riverton, NJ youth baseball team sponsored by Erin Cleaners which is still in Riverton. I did a little cleaning up of the area since the original photo was badly wrinkled up. I also added the names that my uncle gave to me since he is in the picture. Can you identify the other kid in the back?

Palmyra Grammer & High Schools

From the booklet titled "Picturesque Palmyra on the Delaware" by Dr. R. H. Lamb in 1923.

Near the station on the east side of the railroad is a fine brick school house for primary and middle grade pupils, that has a corps of competent teachers, and on the west side of the railroad, about 3 minutes walk from the station, is the high school building. To meet the present day requirements an extensive supplementary building has recently been added to it at a cost of one hundred and eighty-five thousand dollars, which makes it a very imposing structure. The school ranks very high as an educational institution. a large number of its pupils come from outlying districts and the towns along the railroad. The come and go by train or trolley.
