KINDERGARTEN AT LOWELL ELEMENTARY |

Thanks to Bill Tobin for another great picture.
Can you help fill in the blanks (Bill & Judy Wilson Jones did their best) .... 1st Row: Unknown, Mike Carlson, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown,
Unknown 2nd
Row: Carol Hansted (?), Unknown, Tina Christensen, Susie Arnold (confirmed by Susie) Peggy Wimperly (?) Sharon Beckett 3rd Row: Shirley Griffith,
Don Gould, Mac Bock, Unknown, Unknown, Dave Ellithorpe
Bill's mom wrote that he was second from the right in the first row, but he does
not think that is the case.
Bill Tobin sent this picture taken in 1950 at a Nursery
School called Mrs. Saul's. Bill grew up in Belmont Shore and presumably many of these kids went on to Lowell,
Rogers and Wilson. With several detectives offering up clues (a huge thanks to Judy Wilson Jones for filling in a LOT
of blanks) we think that those pictured are ... Front row – Cynthia Geizer (NOT Connie Kaylor Judy insists),
Unknown, Unknown, Nancy Nutter, Pam Rose, Ed Perry, Unknown
2nd row – Craig Daugherty, Tom Morlock, “JP” John Crosby, Marsha Harris,
Unknown, Unknown, Unknown
3rd row: Terry Thorpe, Unknown, Unknown, Ed Bragg, Bill Murphy, Valerie
Boyer, Susie Davidson
4th row: Unknown, Lee Faries, unknown, unknown, Judy Wilson,
unknown, Bill Tobin
Update - this just in! Lee Faries Ostendorf has identified that cutie
2nd from left, back row - as Lee Faries. She remembers that Mrs. Saul's institution of lower learning was called the
Peppermint Playhouse - Life was simpler then - and said "There were a lot of wiggle worms and strange expressions in
that picture. Judy's was one of the best." (Webmistress Note - I think had I been Mrs. Saul, I would have not
messed with Judy Wilson.)

OK, let's try this kindergarten one ... Mr. Bob Chrisman states that the
following can be found in the picture - Tony Duarte, Bill Tobin, Susie Bailey, Connie Kaylor, Mac Bock, and Corky Severson.
As well as Mr. Bob Chrisman. Click to enlarge the picture and start putting your specific guesses on the Bruin Den.
Once again Don Singleton is brave enough to guess - he says:
Remember, I didn't arrive on the Lowell scene until Jr. 1st grade, so some
of these are "pure" guesses.
