Judith Farringer (Paul)
Sorry, I don't have a contact for Julie, either, but I hope someone does. What I do have is a Glenview School kindergarten class picture (1950) on the back of which my mother dutifully wrote the names of my fellow classmates. Frankie Piper, Emily Williams, Tommy Crawford, Michael Deasy, Clifford D., Bobby Delgado, Jimmy Hills, Robbie Welch (Welsh?), Doreen ?, Frankie Giannini, Gale Hatcher, Terry White, Babs Fulton, Bobby ?, Craig ?, and me, Judy Farringer. I, along with about six others, switched to the newly built Joaquin Miller School for first grade, so lost contact and all recollection that I had shared my kindergarten experience with some OHS classmates until I found this picture again. I have another picture of the morning kindergarten class that includes additional kids, but my mother didn't write names on the back of this one. I think I recognize Sharon Latimer and maybe Murray Herriman and Carol Acuros, among others. I scanned these photos and will put them on my profile page. They' didn't scan well, but hopefully you'll be able to recognize yourself if you were in one of them. I'd love to know if anyone does recognize themselves or has a similar kindergarten photo or knows the names of any of the unnamed classmates. What I remember about Mrs. Post's class are these things: rolling out tatami mats on the floor or on the tables (if you were lucky) for a short rest each day; wearing my bus card on a string around my neck; having to drink a carton of milk that had been sitting in the warm window sill (and was sour) that Mrs. Post offered me—I was too shy to say "no thank you." (I never drank milk out of a carton after that experience, and, in fact, shortly after that stopped drinking milk altogether.) I remember being part of the May Pole dance celebration out in the older children's playground. Hope to see many of you at the reunion.
