In the left of the combined picture is a scene of Joyce and Delores of CWS taken last Friday (Eva Schwartz Day).The right comes from a 10/6/52 Life Magazine article about PS 61. The article centered around the dynamic principal of that time, Max Francke. PS 61 had the largest enrollment of any elementary school in the city. Look closely, you can see the same old fashioned entry doors to the auditorium. Here's two slide shows I had put together several years ago using scans of that interesting article which is on exhibit at the school. I'm pretty sure Eva's twins were in PS 61 at that time. This is part one.And here is part two
