Bob Griffith who is now the new Buick dealer will have on display the 1960 Buicks and will exhibit his own 1935 Buick. He will show the progress made and the many new devices which bring more riding comfort, such as television and jet propulsion. The Toni Company has a stand at the fair. The main attraction is the Toni twins, John Adamson and Donald Masselle. Can you guess which twin has the toni? The town is exceptionally proud of its Memorial Hospital. The nursing staff is headed by Margie Maitz. Their booth will demonstrate the art of first aid. Mary D'Amico who has been quite active in the supervising of teen-age groups will give a speech on How to Stop your Teen-Age Daughter from Giggling. This will be given at the Memorial Hospital booth. Joe Villella, who is now warden at Wethersfield Prison, has consented to let the prison team play an exhibition baseball game with the local team. Professor Willard Avery, is supervisor of the English department of the local high school and he will hand out pamphlets on Better English for Better Living. He is a firm believer that slang will get you nowhere. Moving pictures will be taken at the fair and will be shown the following week at the Main Street Theater owned by Gloria Theberge. To add to the charm of the theater are the usherettes whose captain is Cynthia Deming. Their striking uniforms were designed by Kathleen Luby, proprietoress of Madame Luby's Dress Shop. Bob Seaburg and Carol Griggs have taken over the Arthur Murray Dancing Studio in town. With the consent of Lois Rakowski, principal of the Grammar School, they will teach the students ballroom dancing. Mary Lou Jorsey, the local dentist, will give fluorine treatments free of charge to all children at the town Health Clinic. One of the many attractions is Miss America who will be at the fair one day during the week. The town is especially proud, as it is Charlene Smith, a local girl. The town is very sorry that another one of its famous personalities will not be able to attend the fair as she is now attempting to swim the English Channel. Who is it, but none other than Muffy Wessels. Frances Nifosi, who is now a high pressure saleswoman, is traveling from door to door trying to sell Christmas cards. She never could get out of the habit of selling cards as that was her main task in school. Sallie Johnson has now taken over the Howard Johnson restaurants throughout the country and is famous the world over for the Johnson Sundae. She will be at the fair and will demonstrate to the people the art of making this sundae. Regina Schnitzke, the world famous Stenographer who has acquired a speed of 260 words a minute, will give a speech to the high school students on the importance of shorthand in the business world. Eleanor Simons, representing the Lioness' Club, can be seen riding around town in a radio car announcing the coming of the Fair. June Knopf is editor of the Berlin Buzz which is noted for its famous advice for the lovelorn column written by Eleanor Yale. The horse show will be sponsored by Bertha Ventres. It will feature a specialty act in which Marilyn Carlson, the famous trick artist, will star. Berlin is ever grateful to the class of 1950 for their faithful and generous work in making this ideal town possible. Signed by Florence Mazzali Marilyn Orcutt
