EDITOR'S NOTE -- Below is an exchange of messages and East Side picture you might want to see! The TEXT is followed by the East Side Flag Monitors years ago as explained by John. The West Side picture along with the Peabody High School/College/Grammer School was sent by Class 46, Francis Bickel Johnson's daughter, Georgia.

Hi Ray -

Thanks for putting my latest message on the LRHS Reunion website.

I have already begun to receive replies to the message sent out yesterday. Am forwarding one from John Bowden.

The picture is a classic! We were so young! And, I had hair! It was light brown, not white like today!

Anyway, I wanted to share this with you. Who knows what will result from this project of trying to ''recover" pictures and stuff about East Side and West Side.

Keep in touch.

Paul

Paul,

Thought you might like a copy of this. This is the picture the newspaper took. For some reason they sent a print to me. Somewhere I have a copy of the newspaper clipping but don't remember where. One of these days I will find it. I have added the captions from notes on the back of the original print.

I will copy a couple of other East Side things and send them to you. One is our 9A Class issue of the East Side Junior Journal dated January 18, 1946. You can forward them to the guy in Little Rock if you wish.

It looks like I will be making some business trips to the DC area during the next few weeks. Maybe we can connect for dinner or maybe even lunch one of the times. I will give you a call.

Regards,

John.
