This Day in History: 1949-08-30
Four members of the Ramsey Civil Air Patrol who are members of New Jersey State Drill Team competed in Toronto, Canada against teams from Canada and Great Britain. The New Jersey group had recently won the national championship. Team members Barry DeVries and Leroy Van were from Ramsey, Alfred Ivany was from Allendale, and John Apgar was from Mahwah. Unfortunately they lost by two points in the Toronto International competition. (Bristow)
