Description
   A group photo with a placard reading "Devar Yom be-Yomo '91" in the background.

This writer is baffled as to the location and purpose of the group. The name suggest a daily paper with a staff of 35? A class graduation perhaps? The group is dressed in high-fashion with plenty of jewelry, the location suggests an official building on an unpaved street. Oddly, not all of the women wear hats. The photo was consigned from Pittsburgh. Anyone with more - details, a bright idea, please email us.
