The picture is a little too small to be certain, but from left to right are: Irving Crane, Jim Rempe, Ray martin, Steve Mizerak, blank, Allen Hopkins, blank, Lou Butera. The bald headed guy looks familiar, but I can't place him.

This looks like it was taken at a Richie Florence tournament.
A few well-known faces, but who are the two between Richie and Lou Butera?

I'm sure you meant L to R.

All correct! The tall bald headed guy is John "The Dancer" Brescia, one of the producers of The Baltimore Bullet. He was a big pool fanatic in the L.A. area back in the 60's and 70's. I played him a few time at Ye Billiard Den in Hollywood. I don't remember the name of the little guy with the plaque. He was one of the sponsors of the event. I think this one was at the Irvine Registry Hotel (circa 1976). That is Richie just behind Crane. Good eye!
