I really wish I knew what this was about. The LIFE Magazine photo archive lumps it in with photos related to Chicago Gang Wars in the late 60s or early 70s. The rest of the shots are solemn-faced men or crying women leaning over caskets. But what about these two?
UPDATE: Carl let me know that this is
Reverend John Fry. Carl's the man.

I wish I had some of what they had.
