Girls Against Boys, Tug of War, 1938
Entitled: "Tug-of-war at school, Southeast Missouri Farms Project." Tug of war is a sport that directly puts two teams against each other in a test of strength. The origins of tug of war are uncertain, but it is beyond dispute that this once royal sport was practiced in ancient Egypt, Greece and China, where it was held in legend that the Sun and Moon played Tug of War over the light and darkness. Photographed for the Farm Security Administration by Russell Lee August 1938.
