Looks as if she can multitask.  Also looks as if I wouldn't want to be on her caca list.

 

Don't kid yourself. They are all that way. Some are just better at hiding it so you can't get a running start.

Barge load of cars and trucks from about 1952.

They look like mostly Mopar cars, but there's a Packard in the second line from the left, with divided, wraparound rear window, and scoops on the rear fender. 

... and maybe a Hudson sedan in the second row from the right, with rear quarter windows.

This beast is almost ready. Bonneville is only 3 weeks away. The H&F #404 1934 Desoto Airflow will be there. This isn't your grandfather's blown in line 8 cylinder 1937 Chrysler motor.

They look more like WW-1 soldiers to me. The WW-1 Army uniforms are pretty much a giveaway.

During WW2 lots of universities repurposed themselves to provide technical training for the military. If they did that during WW1 too, then it would explain the military uniforms and the U of M caption.

Those are WW-1 uniforms,and I am not trying to be snotty,but soldiers are not what comes to mind when people think of "UM" students. Especially during war time,when college students are exempt from the draft.
