Ignominy is no longer the fate of old, worn-out automobiles and the Platt school children, shown above toting an ancient car body on their small express wagon, are proving the point by getting the scrapped machine to the pile whence it will be transported to the smelters, remoulded into vital war machinery and dispatched on its last journey to the war-torn corners of the world. Platt pupils shown bringing in the car (they've already brought in a great deal of other scrap material) are, left to right, Ralph Terry, Ronald Daugherty, Frank Michelfelder, Eleanor Daugherty, Guy Blachman and Donald Adams.

Ypsilanti Boys Pull Hard On Stuck-In-The-Mud Road Grader, April 1957

1955

Ann Arbor News, March 2, 1955
Caption:
Pull Hard, Boys: Sometimes a News photographer can't resist taking the proverbial "gag" shot, and yesterday afternoon was a case in point. While scraping Watling Blvd. near Hawkins St., an Ypsilanti road grader became hopelessly mired in mud. Before another grader arrived to extricate the bogged-down vehicle, these young boys tried in vain to pull the big machine out of the mud hole. Giving their "all" here are (left to right) Donald Adams, Larry H. Moore, both 3, George L. Moore, Larry Adams and Ronald R. Clark, all 5.
