Scope and content
Soccer team. This team of 9-year-olds was sponsored by philanthropist Ben Cheney. It was one of many "Cheney Studs" teams that was able to participate in amateur sports thanks to Mr. Cheney's generosity. The soccer team, coached by Jim Strader, posed for their group portrait on November 22, 1969, at Lakewood's Forest Park. They are all dressed uniformly except for the boy kneeling in front cradling the ball; presumably the goalie, he is wearing a white jersey. Photograph ordered by Cheney Lumber Co.
