CContinued Oll Page Sixty-oneb Pazlr Fiffcvu UK XYIQNN ER QTRONI cl 113' ix I o 1 .1- a -ii a New York City, New Yorki A June 7, 1956 Dear Miss Hunter, It has been ten years since I graduated from Dwight Township High School, and a great many things have happened since that memorable occasion. As you probably know, I am a fashion photographer. It is one of the most interesting and exciting careers one could have. I am head photographer for john Clement. editor of the Moonemoiselle magazine. My real purpose in writing is to tell you about my most interesting assign- ment-photographing fashions on the Moon. Traveling to the Moon is now quite a common occurrence, but this trip was my first. Iohn called me into his office early one morning about three weeks ago and said I was to get a picture story of the new space ship and then photograph the new fashions designed by Yvonne Gillispie. Yvonne is head designer on the Moon and has a large staff of assistant designers. Among them are Iletty Spandet, Jean Michaels, and Mardell Mathison. I started out with two models and an assistant photographer, all former classmates of mine. The models were Anna Mae Simpson and Kathleen Cruise. Kathleen had just won the Most Outstanding Model contest sponsored by the Star Movie Studios. Iiy the way, Douglas Christiansen is the head of the studios. My assistant for the trip was Virgean Jensen. VVC went by train to Hollywood, California. Joseph Campbell, who was al- ways interested in railroads. now owns this Coast to Coast railroad company. Once in Hollywood, we immediately went to the homes of Richard Cassady and Dale Siedentop. Each has a large home with swimming pool and stables. fSigh!j Their space ship was the first one to reach the Moon. They have per- fected it, and now it travels at a rate of 2,000 miles per hour. The boys modestly say, Oh, it was nothing. After photographing these great scientists, we drove to San Francisco where William Myers runs the largest space ship plant in the world. llernadine Rhode, his secretary, admitted us to his office. fContinned on Page Forty-sixj Page Sistecn .

The junior class, on November lo, 1945, staged the play, Foot-Loose by Charles Quimby llur- dette, in our high school auditorium. 'llhe junior girls also sold candy at the home basketball games to raise money, a11d the entire elass helped in the selling of attractive stationery. As a climax to their activities as juniors. the class trans- formed the gymnasium into a deck of a ship and entertained the senior class at the Junior-Senior Reception and Prom on May 25.

I, John Anderson, leave to EstheriZappa my lovely sandy hair. I, joe Bessen, bequeath my brother John to Dwight Township High School. To Bill Kirsch, I, Clifton Capers, will my southern drawl. I, joe Campbell, will my ability to get along with the teachers to Richard McNamara. I, Richard Cassady, leave my position as president of the Student Coun- cil to some deserving junior. ' As is customary, I, Theresa Christesen, bequeath my position as Editor-in- Chief to some ambitious and patient junior. To Otto Ingram, I, Douglas Christiansen, bequeath my basketball ability. , I, John Clausen, leave nobody nothing. I, John Clement, will my height to Richard Burns. To Wayne Denaple, I, David Constantine, bequeath what is left of my car. I, Kathleen Cruise, leave to Marilyn Pearson my beautiful black hair. To Doris Kline, I, Wilma Dornbierer, bequeath my seat on the South bus. To Mary Helen Calderwood, I, Lorraine Ely, will my quietness. CContinued on Page Sixty-sevenj Page F arty-five fr ' t 'f 11- 'rr 5 fContinued from Page Sixteenj Bill was quiet happy to see us and said he would have the foreman of the factory show us around. The foreman was none other than James I-Iodgman. With Jimmy's help we took some wonderful pictures. Hodge even offered his services as a model. Since our space ship didn't leave until the next day, we went over to the Hotel Southern, managed by that Southern boy, Clifton Capers. Clifton brings the spirit of the Ol' South right into the hotel. VVilma Dornbierer is hostess in the dining room, and Lorraine Ely is a waitress. We all decided to go window shopping for a while. As we passed a shop, I thought I recognized the name on the window. I turned around and saw that it was Dorothy Ann's Beauty Shoppe. This is Dorothy Ann McCambridge's shop. Gleniss Wignall and Lorraine Wheeler work in it. Of course they insisted on showing us what they could do, and who were we to decline? We were at the airport early the next morning. I wish you could have seen this space ship, Miss Hunter. I never dreamed it would be so large. I was even more surprised when we got in. Darlene Stallman and the entire cast of her re- cent stage hit Planets and People were aboard. Betty Weber, the noted pianist, was also there. She said she planned to do a concert on the Moon. Her or- chestra was following in another ship. All of Betity's music was written by Anna Louise Hale, the famous composer. .lust as we were ready to take off, someone came running across the field. It was Alice Mooney. Alice is now a journalist and the author of the best seller, Forever Tomorrow. I began to feel quite at home with so many old friends around, and I de- cided to go up front to watch the pilot. To my complete surprise, the pilot was David Constantine. David said he flew the space ship on its initial flight. He's too modest to admit it, but he has made several flying records. In a short time we landed on the Moon. A man came across the field to greet us. VVhen he came closer, I saw that it was Francis Lund. llc said that he would drive us to Clausen, the nearest town. That name sounded very familiar. We in- quired and found out that the citizens of the town had unanimously voted to have the town named after john Clausen becauseijohn had helped to make such a great improvement in the town. Of course, John could easily help because of his great wealth. He owns a large chain of theaters and now has some theaters started on the Moon. He left Leo Osborn in charge of his business in the United States.

Haegele called the first meeting of the football squad in order to get an early start in preparing for the 'l'rojan's first game against the Morris Indians. Coach Haegele found him- self with two returning lettcrmen, john Drew and john Metzke. The rest of the team had to be built from ':green material with the exception of three or four second team boys from 44 . The boys practiced strenuously for the next four weeks. Finally, on September 21, the Trojans made their debut on Morris' field. The Indians, having more material and the advantage of playing on their home field, trouncecl the Trojans to defeat by a score of 39 to 0.

The Trojans battled the Trinity Saints in the first home game. At the half the score stood 7 to 6 in favor of Trinity, but the second half found Coach llaegele's Trojans a great deal better. ln the losing minutes of the game John Metzke hurled a 40- yard pass to Glen liloxam, vtho was standing on the goal line. He managed to snag Metzke's beautiful pass away from three opposing players. Metzke also passed the extra point.
