The men are identified in the paragraph on the right: "With the 1947 baseball season now well under way, here's one team which definitely won't be in the running for a pennant. Just 45 seasons ago, this aggregation represented the Haverhill Division of what is now the Eastern Massachusetts Street Railway system. Of the ten, only Vard Leavitt (rear center) is still with the company, as manager of the Brockton Division. In front row from left are: Arthur Bamford, Charles Sinclair, now retired at Hyde Park, Vt.; Simeon Lambert,; Charles Jones, who later became City Marshall of Haverhill and is now retired; Charles Seavey (deceased) and George Stevens. On the next step up are Harry Hoyt, now of New Hampshire; Carl Connors (deceased): Mr. Leavitt and Leon Adams, later of the Haverhill police force and now retired.
