New Feature of ALJBS.org is started by William Queale, Jr.
June 1953. The first Corvette was about to roll off the line, Egypt declared itself a Republic, and
Tony Blair is but a month old. It was the beginning of the Cold War, just after the Korean War.
I Love Lucy was the hit show on television that year and Ben Hogan won three Golf majors.
1953 was also the Eighth Session of American Legion Jersey Boys State. John H Lewis, Jr. of
Lafayette (Sussex), New Jersey (Post # 258) was elected Governor of ALJBS, and
William Queale, Jr. was a delegate. William, from
Gloucester County, would later go on to a career as a Planning Consultant, in which he was
retained in 150 different towns and cities across NJ. Below is a photo submission
from Mr. Queale. Our sincerest thanks go out to
Mr. Queale for helping get this archive project started.
