May 1940. "Pool room in Scranton, Iowa." View full size. 35mm nitrate negative by John Vachon for the Farm Security Administration.
Trouble, oh we got trouble,
Right here in River City!
With a capital "T"
That rhymes with "P"
And that stands for Pool,
That stands for pool.
We've surely got trouble!
Right here in River City,
Right here!
Gotta figger out a way
To keep the young ones moral after school!
Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble...
From "The Music Man"
