Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph caption dated November 30, 1956 reads "Voices lift at old corral. West Valley Commandos perch atop rail of their corral as four of their Ranger leaders join Tim Spencer in singing 'Timber Train,' recalling Ranger summer camp in big timber country. Singers in foreground are, from left, Julie Smith, Granada Hills; Sharon Friesen, Northridge; Spencer, and Susan and Sally Cope, Pacoima. Seated on rail are, left to right, Bobby Hartz, Reseda; Dennis Deese, Northridge; Bobby Jewitt, Granada Hills; Tommy Fidger, Northridge; Christine Ives, Sepulveda; Mary Battcher, Granada Hills, and Nancy Kranzler, Chatsworth." The article partially reads "The Valleywide Rangers and Christian Commandos, with a program based on training boys and girls as 'youthful leaders, safe to follow,' are spreading 'juvenile decency' by chain reaction."; See images #00146438 through #00146443 for all photos in this series.
