    A competitive swimmer, came in second in a mile race in Philadelphia on Sept. 11, 1915.

    This was probably taken on the occasion of the A.A.U. 5 mile swim meet, 9/22/15, in which she also competed. The course was from Point Breeze, Rockaway to the Brighton Baths at Brighton Beach.
    (presumably pictured above). New York Times coverage said the race was cancelled midway due to the strong oncoming tides(apparently they were 100 yards behind where they started when the race was ended), but that Rubican, age 13, and another swimmer jumped out of the boats bringing them to shore to show that they were "not in the least exhausted", and that's what this picture seems to show.

    no time to even remove the hair curlers... poor thing!
  • Juffrouw Jo said:
    She probably wore her curlers under her scarf, they were not meant to be seen but exposed when the police took the photo and probably pushed the scarf back to show more of her face.
  • dibbin said:
    Susan was a typical working class woman of her time and is shown wearing a SHAWL. This useful and cheap item of attire was worn by most working women before WW 1 in the North and continued in use in Lancashire by the older generation until the 1950s. It is unlikely that she was a Muslim.

    She lived in the same location as one of Cheryl Coles ancestors, a hard grubby life poor thing.

Koustontine Protich (LOC)

    Konstantine Protich "16-YEAR-OLD WAR VETERAN - The youngest European soldier to come to this country so far is Konstantine Protich. As he left the pier he was wearing a pair of German boots, which, he said, he took from a German soldier whom he had killed. When the great Serbian retreat was forced recently little Protich was in the line. The attention of Dr. Harriett Cockburn, a nurse in the Serbian Red Cross, was attracted to him and she is taking him to' Toronto, where he will study civil engineering." (Omaha daily bee., January 25, 1916, Image 1, with photo)

    Thanks so much for your research on this young man, B-59. We'll add some information about him to the record the next time we update.
