Loemker, Herman J., 1868-1937

Dressed in dark pants and white shirts, at least 100 boys and young men have formed rows on the Municipal Athletic Field. The boys appear to be participating in some sort of a drill. Covered bleachers are partially visible in the right background of the image. Spectators are seated on the bleachers. A large building with a sign reading “Conlin Kearns ICE Co.” may be seen next to the bleachers. The number 1350 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
