Black man sitting with his back toward the camera is Cisero Murphy.

My vote is Balsis and not Shorty. Dallas West and Willie Munson "Willie's Beads" for sure.

.....Also, it could be Irving Crane sitting immediately behind Cisero Murphy. Crane has back of head in photo.

Does anybody agree with this one?
