This Picture came from Betty Krump Krueger along with a letter: "St. John's College, The Enclosed copy of a sports team from St. John's is from 1907 according to the number on the ball one player is holding. I recently found the photo among my father's belongings. His name was Christopher J. Krump and he is in the photo wearing a suit. The las one in the middle row. He studied architect. What I would like to know what kind of sport this would have been. Looks like a basket ball the player is holding, but the uniforms are far different from todays uniform. Would appreciate any information to be found. Sincerely Betty Krump Krueger"
