CC08  - PTA54 - Mr. L. C. Cathcart is seated at the far left - Can anyone name any of the other parents and teachers in the room? This appears to be at one of the elementary schools but I can not figure out which one.

Pta54--The man seated to the far right of the picture is O.H. Haynes, Jr.   Both Little OH and Freddie Lynn would have been students at East Side about then. 

Claire Turner Fussell, Class of 1965

Mr. Cathcart was my pincipal at MHS and was before I went to high school. I graduated with Mr. Williams as Principal in 1953.

Charlie Hennigan, Class of 1953.

PTA54 picture with Mr. Cathcart would have been East Side Elementary (now known as E. S. Richardson).  I was in the first grade the year it opened and Mr. Cathcart was the principal.  I remember that he left and W. W. Williams took his place.  I don't know the years of these occurrences though.

The background of this picture was that two civic clubs had a bet, competition of some such thing.
where the loser was the push the winner down main street in a wheelbarrow. They made a major production out of it.

I BELIEVE that is Luther Moore, an attorney now and our 1948 class president,  second from the right.  I would GUESS that this is the American Legion or Veterans of Foreign Wars, but I really don't know.

The other picture that needs identified is the Civitan picture where my
daddy and Mr. Oliphant are with a group of men and Daddy is sitting down
and has been identified  along with Mr. Oliphant.  This was a district
Civitan meeting, probably held in Alexandria. La. I went with Daddy to
some of these meetings and Mother and I would go and mess around while
Daddy was in the meetings and then we would have a banquet and dance. 
The man in the middle with all the hair is Mr. Gene Swann and could he
dance.  I do not remember the other men, but they are not from Minden.
Hope this helps.
