Who's Who In 1962 Who's Who in 1962 aims to include brief life sketches of the Senior Class of 1952, ten years from now. All members are successful in the ventures into which they have found their way. Carol Nadler--after graduating from A. H. S. took her long awaited trip to California. She found she liked the climate and sunshine so well she stayed. She is now a secretary to one of the movie producers in Hollywood. Betty Thilking--is now a great concert pianist touring the world. At present she is in England. She always enjoyed playing during her years at A. H. S. Jeanette Thilking--now a dress designer in London, England, she finds it a wonderful career. Last year she designed the dress, which was first shown in one of the largest dress shops in Augusta. Ellen Berg--is still employed as an airline hostess which she began as a career after graduating. She has traveled the entire world over. She still comes back to Augusta for her vacation. We don't know if it's to see the city itself or her old beau Hubert. Roland Fuhr--who had a secret ambition of being an airline mechanic went to New York to fulfill it. He seems to be doing very well for himself. Forrest Dale Dieckhaus, known as Rusty to his friends, having been en- countered more than once during his years at A. H. S. by State Patrolmen, decided to become one himself. He now drives down the highways of Missouri tracking down the speeding drivers or one without tail lights. Roger Buenemann--one of our more wittier classmates, known to us all as Beanie, is now a great comedian in Hollywood. He recently made a personal appearance in one of the 'lar gest theaters of Augusta, for a premiere of his newest picture. Seen with him were his beautiful blonde wife and twin daughters, who seem to have the personality of their father. Douglas Sutton--is a Sailor now, stationed in California. Last week he spent his furlough in Augusta. Doug is now Adrniral of the battleship Missouri. Richard Struckhoff--Richie to most of us, set as his goal to be a world plane pilot, and he has achieved it. He makes regular stops in Augusta's Airfield. Wilfred Wissmann--who had a yearning to drive a Pacific Intermountain Express KPIED truck in his school days, is now employed in that field of work. 12
