Looks like an amateur team to me.

My best guess is that U.S.T.H. is University of St. Thomas Havana. It’s possible the one jersey is an Almendares jersey, but many amateur teams in Cuba would base their look off the major WL teams because of their popularity. I could be completely wrong though.

Second from the right
 
..front row , in with the 4 Gringoes/Yanquis my first thought was a very young Hank Greenberg ?

I was doing my usual eBay tonight perusing and came across this image of Pablo Garcia wearing a similar jersey. He's not as famous as some other Cuban ballplayers of the time, but he's notable enough that it might give you a lead on the Team pictured. I don't believe he is in your RPPC, however. Good luck!
