ii. V 'Q 4 ,J JI wa IT-, L-1,I I v 'Sf ln l 415 - GLASS QF Q40 U TH FUTW E Time: May 24, 1950. Place: Adrian, Oregon. A journey around the world with Flora Prosser. I had just realized my life long ambition when I received my appoint- ment as foreign correspondent for the Adrian Gazette. This would enable me to take my long desired trip around the world. As I went aboard ship on my way to Honolulu I noticed the chief engineer looked rather familiar. After a little thought I recognized him as Elbert Fretwell, president of the class of 'i40 . Seeing him instantly recalled all my good old days at Adrian Hi and I decided to look up all my former classmates and see just what the years had held for them. On board ship I attended a dance and to my surprise found the crowd dancing to the swing music- of Jim Miller and his orchestra. The very popular violinist with him was his wife, former Mildred Antrim. At the Hawaiian Islands I hired a guide, Fred Boness, to show me the island. One of the most interesting sights was the interpretation of the Honolulu by Mary Roberts, a dancing teacher in the islands. On the plane trip to Russia I heard much talk of the new dictator, Mervin Peterson. To amuse myself while traveling to Paris I read a Paris newspaper. In it I saw an advertisement of a Lonely Hearts Club for all bachelors and old maids, conducted by Ethel Daiss. While in Paris I attended a movie starring the American No 1. glamour boy. Pat Patterson, who was breaking girls hearts all over the world. ni Germany I visited the art galleries and saw many famous pictures painted by Louise Klingback. In Italy while drifting peacefully in a gondola in Venice, I listened to the beautiful tenor voice of the gondlier, Jesse Gale. Down a side street in Venice, I found an organ grinder, Bob Gehr, showing the children the tricks of his pet monkey. I next went to India, here I found Bob Eastman teaching in a misslonary school. His wife, the former Margaret Winters, helped him when she was not too busy keeping track of the ten little Eastmans. In Switzerland I took skiing lessons from Miles Wallace, world famous winter sportsman. While in London I talked to Daniel Zamora, who was about to commit suicide because his heart had been broken by a dish-water blonde. Sipping tea in a smart London tea shop I read in a newspaper where the sixth wife of Mr, de Lespinasse, our class advisor, was suing for a divoce. In the jungles of Africa I discovered Regina Ocamica and her husband about to set off on a journey through the uninhabited wilds to take pictures of the wild animals for Warner Brothers. By this time as I was about to run out of funds I boarded a ship for New York City where I met Livingstone Larkin, 'who was training to l'1lll for the United States in the next Olympic games. When I went to Coney Island I went to a small hot dog stand, which was owned by Ellen Jensen. A friend of mine took me to visit Sing Sing prison. There I received the greatest shock of my life when I saw Ray Strickland, who was serving a life sentence for stealing the Hope diamond. After viewing the rest of New York I returned home to Adrian where I was given a hearty welcome by the mayor, Norman Cram.
