New Photos from the Longos

Mr and Mrs James Longo were kind enough to allow me to show some photos from their private collection of FRLK history.

In the past month's oppressive heat I found this photo quite enjoyable. High Mountain Road in Winter, early 1960s.

The library was given this interesting school patch this past week but I do not have any info on it. What stuck me funny was that the logo was a dragon and not an Indian head. Any thoughts?
