Pictures of the Past #56

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/

In an attempt to impress the delegates to the state Jaycees' annual Fall meeting in Cape Girardeau, members of the local Jaycees tried to inflate this huge balloon and let it float above the meeting's headquarters, the Hotel Marquette. But, alas, the balloon burst from too much air pressure. From the left are Richard Eggimann, Dale West, Charles Baldwin, Curt Bradley, Jack Kohrumel and Allan Baker of the local group. This front-page photo was published Oct. 29, 1960, in the Southeast Missourian.
