From Connie's Notes: This is evidently
a photo of some sort of gardening awards. I am on the left and
have a notoriously black thumb, so I must have cheated.
UPDATE: From
Wayne L'Amoreaux, Hopkins Class of 1958
In the Connie Newbauer picture with Connie, Jon Meriwether and Jack
L'Amoreaux, I can tell you what the picture portrays. It shows the
winners of the annual Hopkins Street Flower Show, each holding his/her
prize winner. My brother Jack is holding a pot/vase of cock's comb
(grown by our grandmother) to which he had pinned a dead butterfly.
Sounds gruesome but it caught the eyes of the judges and he won a
prize. He used the same ploy the next year and won another prize.
Probably different judges.
