Description

Police and School Kids, Unknown Dates. These four film negative strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images were created using two separate film rolls, so some of the physical numbers on the strips are repeated. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to the film roll from which they originally came. Each group will be assigned a lower-case letter to go along with the physical numbers on the strips (ex: 1a, 2a, 3a, 1b, 2b, 3b, etc.) to help differentiate between images. The images in group "a" show a police officer seated at a child's school desk in an elementary school classroom. Many children are also in the classroom. Images 1a through 6a and 12a through 13a show the officer seated at the front of the classroom and the children seated at their desks. The officer appears to be presenting information to the students or taking questions from them. Images 14a 20a show small groups of students standing next to the seated police officer and talking to him. Image 21a again shows the children seated at the officer at the front of the classroom. The images in group "b" show a Lacey Elementary sign , a sign concerning smiling, and several women speaking to a police officer in a cafeteria. Image 2b shows the Lacey Elementary School sign at the school. A portion of the school's parking lot is also visible in the image. Image 3b shows a sign which reads "SMILE, IT ADDS VALUE TO YOUR FACE." Image 4b shows three women and a man in a police uniform gathered around a table with several commercial hot food trays on it. This is likely in the Lacey Elementary cafeteria. Images 5b and 6b are very similar to image 4b. Printed in alternation along one long edge of each of these strips is "KODAK SAFETY FILM" and "KODAK TRI X PAN FILM."
