PROGRESS CLUB (Forerunner of Greenacres)
PROGRESS CLUB (Forerunner of Greenacres) One of the leading social clubs of the present day, with a membership exclusively Jewish, is the Progress Club, which since 1922 has been occupying a handsome club house at 178 West State Street. This organization began in November 1894 as the Young Men's Hebrew Club, with a membership of twenty-seven. Its first meetings were held in a room in a building on South Broad Street, below Factory, but later the club moved to East State Street, between Broad and Warren Streets. Arthur Schwartz was the first president of the old club, which was interested in improving the mental, moral, social, and physical conditions of its members and of protecting Hebrew interests. About 1905, the club changed into a purely social one and adopted the name of the Progress Club.

Year is 1952 because we studied the 52 presidential election with Mrs Clark as our teacher,
I think this was a picture actually of a 5th and 6th grade class (still Mrs. Clark). Al Downing, Paula Robinson, Larry Trachtenberg and Art Finkel were in the 6th grade and maybe some others, too. Alan Kagan, Jeffrey Doranz, Bob Hollingshead, myself (Sandy Lipshutz, now Levine) were in the 5th grade. BTW, years ago, when I worked for the New York Times, Al Downing came into the newsroom as a public relations exec. He remembered me with a warm greeting and impressed my colleagues.
