Club Officer 1 2. ■ CENICL CLASS CCCPLIECy It is a wild, stormy night and Mrs. Watson, the Senior Class adviser of 1948, is being tossed around like a fly in her jet-propelled super atomic DDT-XYZ rocket ship on which she has bestowed the name, “Consult Webster.” She is taking a well deserved vacation, with all expenses paid, to Asia. Suddenly there is a puttering sound and she finds herself gliding down to a little cleared space, high in the Tibetian Mountains. Climbing out she is greeted by a strange looking man dressed in a long flowing robe with sandals on his feet and a gay colored turban perched on his head. His flowing beard nearly reaches the ground. Greetings,” Mrs. Watson,” he says. “Come, I’ve been expecting you.” Surprised she asks how he knew that she was coming. He replied, “This is the country without a name and I am Tozobonny. I know that you are interested in knowing what has happened to your class of 1943.” She smiles now and says, “Yes, I always did wonder what would happen to that class.” “I will be glad to tell you,” he offers. “Please sit down and share my fire. My servants will attend to your plane.” With these gentle words he begins— Byron Cotter is living the life of Riley as he is Hollywood’s newest romantic discovery. Even Clark Gable has taken a back seat. His leading lady turned out to be none other than Phyllis George who is appearing under the name of “Allura Ball.” 16

Carol Gray has become the world’s champion bubble gum chewer. At present she is on an international lecturing tour, lecturing on “The How and Why of Bubble Blowing.” I always knew Carol would be a success. Darrell Crossler is now retired and is living in a huge mansion on Parke Avenue. His source of income is from his best seller novel, “The Romantic Moments in My Life.” Dorothy Williams, who has always loved horses, is a trick bare-back rider of a big traveling rodeo. She has broken her other arm, two of her legs, and her collar bone, but she is so good her boss won’t let her quit. Cliff Billings has just entered the Portland Hot Rod Club with his hopped up Ford—well, well, he just came in first. Ed Corkwell just inherited his father’s old dilapidated, broken down, tiny 1948 Buick. He’s been wanting it for years. Jay Clayton, football star of his Senior days, is now playing professional football at Madison Square Gardens ior “Spike.” Melvin Borgard’s ambitions have been fulfilled—his paintings of “Coquille During The Floods,” are hanging in the British Art Museums. He is the toast of London for his prize-winning masterpieces. Vernon Brockmann is now sole owner of a high class dude ranch in Texas. It is advertised as the only place in the country where the horses guarantee to buck you oif on sandy places. Sally Bonney was playing at Earl Carroll’s in Hollywood, featuring her famous “Bubble Boogie Dance.” She had to quit because somebody was always bursting her bubbles. Jim Bellmore is the Physical Education teacher in the Girls’ Reformatory of Coquille, Oregon. This has been Jim’s ambition since he was a little boy. Chuck Hanna, who always was the executive type, is taking over as Mayor of Norway. He had a glorious campaign, kissing all the babies (any female between 10 and 60) and promising a new airplane to every family. Roger Williamson has given up his job as a street cleaner on the complaint that someone was throwing bubble gum wrappers behind him and ruining his beautiful clean streets. Doris Willard, now Mrs. Jack Giffen, is famous for winning the circus contest for throwing a rolling pin further than has yet been known. Jack is touring the country as the 100-yard dash champion. Lue Lindsay, modeling strapless evening gowns for a living, is constantly sick with pneumonia. Will she never learn? Bonnie Zwicker still can’t make up her mind who she wants. Jim, Bob, or someone from Myrtle Point. She’d better hurry and make up her mind, before she gets too old. Dorothy Wersh’s ambition to marry a millionaire has been fulfilled. All she has to do is push a button and a different set of maids appear. Quite an ambition. Careen Molthu has become a big-time career girl with a penthouse and everything. Careen’s success came from her perfume manufacturing plant of the Myrtlewood odor. She guarantees that her Myrtlewood Magic perfume will subdue any man in 24 hours. Betty Preussler is still taking scholarship tests. So far, she has Ph. D., B. A., D. D., and D. U. Z. degrees, but she still can’t pass high school algebra. Tiny Pressley is over in Australia charming the Aus-sies with her cute li’l ole’ southern accent. She started to get married once but decided it was more fun to charm all the men. Vernon Epps, senator from Missouri, has just introduced a new bill to congress asking permission to move the Mississippi River, as it overflows every year on his plantation. Alene Hunt, the great teacher, is lobbying in Congress again. This time she wants Congress to appropriate a fund for care of teachers who have broken under the strain. Grace Taylor is working in a Physics Lab. (On the atom bomb?) Well, that’s close. She is developing a new bomb milkshake for Brandon’s. One of the most famous of the members of the class is Leatha Troudt, the second Lana Turner. She has just finished her last picture, “The Milkman Never Rings Thrice.” Up in Washington, D. C., is a very important little lady, Betty Sell. She is head of the R.F.U.C.U.S., Relief for Underprivileged Cats of the United States. Jim Oden, professor of mathematics at the New Coquille College, has finally mathematically worked out a way in which he can beat Mrs. Beyers at making jokes. Alice Parry has finally received the job she has been working for so many years------secretary to the President of the United States, Richard Parrish. Coralee Miller is the Dean of Women at Coquille University, where her favorite student is Pat Malone, still working for her teacher’s diploma. Cecil Miller studied to be a missionary and now is trying to convert the natives of Coquille. Marion Moore was awarded the “Woman of the Year” plague from the W.D.A.R.G., which means “Women Drivers are Really Good.” This was for running down the most pedestrians. Bob Kuenzli, who is teaching ABC’s to the Japanese, seems to have a headache. Slick-Chick Johnson, in other words, Janet Johnson, is perched on his knee and tries to smooth it away. Lenore Wornstaff is having a big time in Panama where she moved with her parents right after she graduated from school. She is helping the officials operate the Panama Canal. Recently the traffic was held up for six months because she let all the water out of the locks and ships had to wait for it to fill up again. Edra Lee Miller married an English Duke and is living with the Royalty in London. She pays great amounts to have her Hood River Apples shipped to her by Phil Barrette, who runs a scooter route from New York to London. The route runs over the great ocean bridge, which was designed by Lucille Neff; Lucille is a great success in the engineering business. Bob Oerding has followed in the footsteps of another member of his family and is a great real estate agent. He has been trying to sell the Golden Gate Bridge but he can’t find a buyer. Joanne Savage, newly-elected president of the Musicians’ Major Movement for More Miraculous Music, has been giving a series of piano concerts at the new Carnegie Hall. She has been battling with words, that other virtuoso of the piano, “Dud Pierce,” King of Boogie,” who gives Boogie Concerts across the street. Helping Pierce in the bass section is Professor Clinton Peart. Clint has to shave off his beard again. Don objected to the noises it made when it got in his Tuba. Marie Soward, missionary to Africa, is very discouraged. She is trying to get the natives to return to the United States with her but they only answer, “Bongo, Bongo, Bongo.” Maxine Roth, the modern Amelia Earheart, crashed in the South Seas. She was caught by cannibals but was locked up to fatten. She escaped by charming her guard with a snake dance. Edwin Griggs is working for an inventers’ union. He (Continued on page 50) 17
