John was so much fun that Jack and Roberta decided it was time for another. Here are Mary and mom at Ravenna Park in Seattle during early August 1956.

Grandma, Jim, Dick, little Mary and Roberta Walsh Gordon
Please, I'd like some more cake.
Looks like 3 candles on that cake and a baby Ann which would make this the evening of October 17, 1958.
Me? Are you talking to me? Well, I can't hear you.

It's a cow, I tell ya! My teacher told me that all cows have four stomachs
and this things got four stomachs
plus it's got four legs, so its gotta be a cow!
Ann may be falling for this. John's just asking her to pull the other one...

"TRUCE: Seafair pirates and clowns joined hands today for the Kids' Seafair Breakfast--the only time the rivals "make up." They helped Mary Margaret Gordon, 4, steer Seafair's course with a big emblem. From left: Louis Antonelli as Captain Kidd; Mary; Frank Daverso, Davy Jones; Tom Herbert, Prince of Mirth; Ben E Bowling, King Neptune XI; Sidney D. Campbell, Prime Minister, and (rear) Ray Siderius, Court Jester. The only truce of Seafair ended after breakfast."
(According to notes written on the photocopy of this article by Jack Gordon, it was written by the Seattle Times's Bob Heilman and ran on Page 1 at the start of 1960's Seafair.)
