Photograph was edited for publication purposes. There is a vertical crease in the center of the photograph. Photograph caption dated December 26, 1964 reads "Carrying the openers. Randy Solomon, on the left, and Marc Guttman carry the bingo box between them as they lead the B'nai B'rith group that adopted Ward F across the lawn of Camarillo State Hospital. One of the problems the group has had to overcome is transportation. The hospital is 90-miles round trip from the Valley area. According to Randy, sometimes more people are willing to make the trip than the available transportation."
