Spring must be here. Roller-skating youngsters on Ann Arbor streets comprise one of the surest signs. Here six-year-old Janet West of 1707 Pontiac St., a first grade pupil at Northside School, gets a helping hand with her skates from Betty Ann Dibble, seven and one-half, a second grader at St. Thomas School, before hitting the pavement. Scenes like this will increase in direct proportion to the rise of thermometers.

Janet and Betty would be 83…
Janet and Betty would be 83 and 84 today. This is such a visually clear and sharp image of the everyday activity of any child, that it seems like it could be yesterday. It makes the past and the present seem closer when I look at this photo. I love it. Thank you for sharing.
