Title:

After school the Shimomura children usually play with Mollie and Bonnie Ritchie, sometimes with the new kittens and Irish settler puppies on the Ritchie farm, and often with their dolls in the living room of the Shimomura home. Mr. and Mrs. Shungo Shimomura and five of their eight children, formerly of the Colorado River Relocation Center, are now living on the Ritchie fruit farm at Riverton, N.J. Mr. Shimomura works on the farm, Mrs. Shimomura keeps house and tends her vegetable garden, and the children attend nearby schools. Two older daughters live and work in Philadelphia miles away and there is an older son serving in the U.S. Army. -- Photographer: Van Tassel, Gretchen -- Riverton, New Jersey. 10/?/44
