Pictures of the Past #33

G.D. Fronabarger left the Missourian boxes and boxes of negatives. What he didn't leave were IDs for them. Pictures of the Past features some of Frony's images we've partially identified. We're hoping you can help fill in the blanks. Contact librarian Sharon Sanders at ssanders@semissourian.com, if you recognize a place or a face. Mystery Galleries may still be viewed on our History Page, http://www.semissourian.com/history/

Nov. 23, 1963 Southeast Missourian. Maybe Centenary Methodist Men did escape all the essential preliminaries, but some got snared at turkey carving time. Left to right are: Walter Q. Adams, C.F.

Kiwanis Club members gave their time on Oct. 5, 1961 taking several hundred school pupils over the city, visiting industries, commercial establishments and observing the operation of the varied phases of city government. One feature of Kids' Day was a mock trial at the City Court room, where youngsters took turns sitting as "jurors" during the trials and club members and attorneys gave their time to acquaint the youngsters with City Court procedure. William S. Rader is sitting as the judge. (G.D. Fronabarger/Southeast Missourian archive) Cape Girardeau's municipal courtroom was located in the sanctuary of the former Grace United Methodist Church, Independence and Sprigg streets. The city police station moved into the former church building in 1960. The police station had moved from the old Fire Station No. 1 at Independence and Frederick streets. That building was erected in 1909. When the new police headquarters was built across the street, opening in 1976, the city court moved to Common Pleas Courthouse. The old church building was demolished and a new Fire Station No. 1 was constructed on the site.
