1930 Donora Zinc Works Soccer Club Photo

[Brian Houston]

If any one has or can suggest how or where I can find a copy of the Donora Zinc Works soccer club photo that was taken in 1930 please contact me. My grandfather (Art Garcia) is pictured front center bottom row directly behind the mascot.

The photo was taken after winning the game against Moundsville, West Virginia. at Legion Field. The game netted over $1000 for the Donora Commnity Chest.

I received a photo copy (not of good quality) from my uncle who photo copied it from a magazine. The magazine had run an article about the Donora sports clubs. It spoke of 1920's & 1930's soccer as well as Ken Griffy 1975 basketball. This article had to have been published after 1975.

If any body has a good copy of this photo please contact me.

Greetings to everyone!

Donora has had many soccer teams over 1920-1950. Here are two teams from the 1930 Spanish Zinc Works and the Spanish Club Maroons from 1948-49. Can you name everyone in the photos? My uncles, Joe Barbao and Emil Barbao were on the 1930 team. The young boys on the 1948-49 team are Jimmy Fernandez and Ricardo' Dinks' Fernandez, son of " El Cubano.
