The old class sure has made some progress since the year we graduated. Let’s wander through the crowd to find out what each one is doing.” “Here is David Freitas. Hello, Dave! Just what are you doing these days? You own your own Buick garage and drive one every year in the Pan-American Road race? We’re sure glad to hear you’re doing so well, Dave.” “Why, there's Beverly Thiem! She’s been doing quite well. She’s now pri- vate secretary for the law firm of Todd Todd. Beverly always was a good office w'orker.” “Look who’s driving up now! It’s Everett Robinson! Everett is now top electrical engineer for the Atomic Energy Commission. He’s working on the new H. G. M. Project. I’m sure it will turn out better than his hot-rod Ford project.”

“Gosh, there’s Eleanor Jacques, or I should say Eleanor Morrison. Eleanor had just reopened her own beauty shop. She had to close it lor a while until her fifth child became old enough to be left with a babysitter.” A bus just pulled into the yard. My gosh! ! It’s Joyce Merrill and half of the Boston Pops Orchestra. I guess she is going to provide some entertainment for our reunion.” “Let’s take a walk over and see what Ellen Lovely is doing. Hi, Ellen. How are you, and what are you doing? You’re married to Francis Smith and are busy taking care of the twins? We always did think you and Francis did things in a big way. We’re glad to hear things are going so well in Northwood too.” Why, there’s Shirley! She sure is making use of the home economics course she took at Keene. Bob Grant and Shirley are happily married now and are mak- ing plans lor a new ranch style house. Of course, it will have to be big enough for their three boys.” By the way, Norma, what have you been doing since we graduated?” “Oh, I’m married to Buzzy Twombly now. We just flew in from our pine- apple plantation in Hawaii. I always wanted to go there, but I never dreamed I would be living there.” “Joan, how are you coming along with your medical career.” I’ve just finished my internship at the Flower Hospital in New York City. Next year I’m going to start a practice in Noithwood.” “I think we’d better go over and thank our host for a wonderful time. It sure had been nice seeing the old gang again. Let’s make plans for another reunion five years from now.” SENIOR CLASS OPINIONS Favorite Sport ......... Favorite Book...........
