SEIDL caption

WORK CONTINUES ON YMCA ADDITION - A giant boom is silhouetted against a May sky as work on the YMCA addition continues at a good pace. The eighty-foot crane is pictured lifting panels of pre-stressed concrete which will form the roof of the new addition. Each of the sections hoisted slowly to the top weighed a whopping 3,800 pounds. Spokesmen for the YMCA are eyeing a hopeful occupancy date of mid-August. [Unpublished Alternate view] - Journal photo by Tom Kuncel
