Figure 1.-- Here we see three unidentified boys wearing identical whote short pants suits fot their First Communion. The snapshot is taken in front of one of the boys' homes. They could not be brothers because they are all about the same age. They are dressed identically in all white with the exception of one boy wearing black shoees. The boys all wear ankle socks. Knee socks for boys were going out of style in America at the time.

The house looks rather suburban, but we do not know where the boys were from.
