1939 4th of July parade

Don G. Gehring shared this photo with the caption "Don Gehring 5y. little "Uncle Sam" 7/4/1939. 203 W. Mantua Ave. (Fredrick Pontiac) in background"

"Uncle Sam's" 7-4-39 with "Cadets" behind. Big Uncle Sam possibly could be Mayor William Conway as I believe he took on this roll at one point. Remember the fireworks at the ball field during WWII? I think the boy on the bike is Dick Olson, Bell's grandson. Pictures were taken by my dad George Gehring.
