too. After we had eaten we went to the show at which Hazel Yost sold the tickets and Betty Luke and Wilma Fritz in tricky uniforms showed us to our seats. The program began with a juggling act by Bob Love assisted by Dorothy Dieb- ler. Lovey always did like to keep things up in the air. Next was a ladies' jazz or- chestra with Margie Kehrer as leader, Ellie Rutter pianist, Ethel Pfouts, flutist and Jerry DeWalt as saxaphonist. Mid Groves sang the choruses. After this came the feature of the evening, the dramatic tragedy, Don't Eat Bologna Before You Go to Bed with John Shaner and Jennie Lemke in the leading roles. In the last act Hudson Graven appeared as a magician. 'tYeah, Janie said, he always did like to put something over on us. Carl Etsinger helped Craven in his act. As we came out of the show Katy Volk and Marie Shoemaker, Y. W. C. A. secretaries rushed up to us. Have you heard the great news? Shoey cried, 'tJi Baker, the famous ath- lete, is stopping here for a few minutes on his way to Ctglumbus. We're all thrilled about meeting him again. ' I always did think he was the sweetest thing! V Katie exclaimed. So we went down to meet Jim, too. He had just established a record for being able to throw a wet-blanket two hundred feet. Don Gestenslagewwas his manager. After leaving him we met Earl Ackerman, a struggling young druggist who told us about Thelma Bowen who writes such brilliant poetry, the futuristic kind you know, the meter may be found sometime in the future. He also said that Art Kitchen is doing research work to prove to the world that red wood trees are not red. He is married to Dorie Harer. Next we encountered Evelyn Faust and Lucille Foulke who were selling Lady Grey cosmetics. We walked down the street several blocks further and met Don Zeller who considers himself very successful because he has broken all but twenty- five of the bones in his body and he hopes to be lucky enough to break those within the next few years. He said that while he was in Hollywood recently he saw Mike Aidt, who has the title role in the picture, t'Heza Flop. Rowena Howard has the feminine lead and Ray Westenbarger is the villain. We walked on down the street and met the rival grocery dealers, Bob Myers and Bill Weber. VVe were talking to them when Harold Riddlebaugh came bound- ing up to meet us. He has his eye on the heavy weight championship since he knock- ed Johnny Risko out. Jim Gerster is his manager. If you go to the debate tonight, Jim said, You'll meet a lot of people you know. So we went. The affirmative team was composed of Jessie Staton, Ruth Schaber, Wilmy Auck and Evelyn Spaid and the negative Willy Assenheimer, Sippy Shumaker, Leo Speigel and Harold Shoup. The judges were Jim Berry, the town pholosopherg Mary Beall, a young matrong and Fairy Risinger who poses for the cover pictures on dime novels. The topic of the debate was Resolved That It Should Be A Criminal Offense to Feed a Child Spinachf' Margaret Wenninger re- ported it for the paper. When we left we started for Bucyrus. We stopped at a garage on the way where Ralph Nickler worked and he tried to sell us everything from a spark plug to a Cadillac. It was only when his boss, Fae Hull, who always inspires respect came out that he left. Further down the road Alberta Ghist, Jessie Hoover, Clara Walters and Bar- bara Sand have a poultry farm. At the next farmhouse we saw the Beall sisters who as dairymaids have learn-- ed that all milk does not come in bottles. Mary Maley is the housewife there. Upon entering Bucyrus we saw three young matrons, Thelma Mills, Lucille Mollencopf and Eleanor Keller, they were formerly discussing the relative merits of Mellon's and Eagles' baby food. Uptown we met Eleanor Martin who had gone in for toe dancing in a big way. She had just bought her third set of artificial toes. Have you heard, she said, how musical Paul Myers is becoming? She also told me about Violet Cole and Nellie Downing who are co-editors of the magazine, The Truth About Romance. Vilma Galitze is their chief con- tributor. Before returning to Chatfield we went past the old schoolhouse from which we had graduated eleven years before. I was glad that during my vacation I had been able to hear about all the others who graduated with us. All in all the members of '30 had been very successful out in the world.
