Description

Photograph of elementary schools students in a performance on stage at the Short Hills School on Hobart Avenue. According to the writing on the back of the photograph, it picture was taken on May 21, 1936 and shows Nancy Woodruff (96 Oakview Terrace) seated in the front row, seventh from the left. The inscription incorrectly speculates that the photograph may show the Glenwood Elementary School Stage. Glenwood did not open until 1939, so this performance must have taken place in the Short Hills School Auditorium. The photograph was taken by Knight Photo News Service, 309 Main Street, Orange, N.J.
