EAST HIGH JANUS mm UC?-Ein with excitement and so-called city life, so they retreated to Nutscomere island for peace and quiet! It's rather hard to continue with the description of this reunion, you see, these ex-classmates haven't seen each other for twenty years and-well, you can imagine the excitement. Upon further exploration they've discovered that Harold Reuben and Donald Davis have also made the island their permanent home. It seems that Harold was an employee of the Tattling Tattler newspaper owned and managed by Betty Miller-but, Harold and Betty just couldn't seem to bury the axe so Harold . . . resigned and came to Nutscomere to write a novel. which he hopes, will take the world by storm. And Dongpoor Donfis suffering from a broken heart. It seems that when the i'Isalae store went out of business he didn't have any place to go-so he's here . . . trying to forget! Everything has finally been straightened out. It appears that the inhab- itants of the island became so tired of their own society that they decided to have a reunion of the January Class of 37, Accordingly the members of the class chartered a ship to bring them to Nutscomere Island. and they're expected any minute now. However, the members of the cast Bring 'Em Back in Pieces were on location when the invitations were sent-but, luck was with them and they've arrived just in the nick of time. And here comes the excursion ship bearing the rest of the members of the class. With the assistance of Harold and Don, the passengers are alighting. Here comes Mike De Lucia, and who doesn't remember Mikef At the present he is running for president of the United States on the communistic ticket. Close behind is Mr. De Lucia's power behind the throne, Guy Chainese. Guy had seriously considered buying a filling station, but he gave his plans up to become Mike's campaign manager. And now amidst cheers, whistles, and shouts, Jack Miller, who has recently been elected to Congress, is clearing his throat. It looks as if we're in line for a speech. but no. All attention has now been turned toward Raymond Hauserman, world famous concert soloist . . . but proving the Hckleness of crowds, before Ray could even give the crowd a sample of his magnificent voice, all eyes have turned toward the gang plank, down which the glamorous beauty Evelyn Breeze is descending. Evelyn is accom- panied by Joe Balazs, the Latin professor at Workemhard College. What's this?+Why it's Joe Bennett. clad in a leopard skin. Maybe Joe's reverted to the back-to-nature plan. I guess he just can't forget his school days. Remember his initial debut in seventh grade? And here comes that famous song and dance team, Mike Beck and Jewel Herman. They're the featured entertainers with John Holman's Yeast Cafe, and they're mighty good, tool Close behind them is Costella Dokes, who has just completed her latest book, 'Streamlined Figures for All. And now coming into view is Jeanne Bailey, escorted by Gale Walcott. Cmalelis a noted surgeon, famous for his bedside manner, but he claims he owes all his success to Miss Bailey. Jeanne is a nurse and also Dr. Walcott's assistant. Here is Jack Mayo, who is a scout for Trumen Stupen and Colossy Motion Picture Company. Jack's job is to select the ten leading red heads of the year, and leaning on his arm is no other than that famous red head, James Campbell, who is the producer of those delicious Campbell's commodities which are guaranteed to satisfy to the last drop . . . or bite. Extra, Extra, paper, Mister? It's all right, folks. Just Steve Martinko eff Page Tl1i1'lj'-nm' is

EAST HIGH JANUS ...mn gm... Cl1flI,'LC1Vy Qfass 7f'Op il QC1! Howl of wind . . . snarl of an angry sea . . . and the good ship Blowem Down crashed against the reef of a desolate, tropical island. Amid ear-piercing screams and crashes of thunder and lightning, the terror-stricken passengers were cast ashore. In case you are curious as to the identity of the ship wrecked victims, they are the cast and personnel of the Trumen, Stupen, and Colossyn Motion Picture Company's greatest all-star production, Bring 'Em Back in Pieces. The beautiful and talented leading lady is no other than Betty Hay, who is being tenderly lifted by our old friend Joe Hanak, who enacts the roll of the hero. Joe proved himself quite adept at swinging through trees with the greatest of ease, so he was given the role of Darzan in this super productionf Joe is being assisted in reviving Miss Hay by her beautician Dorothy Phillips. And who is that struggling from the shattered ruins of what was once a magnificent ship? Why . . . it's lda Leone. Ida designs those striking gowns worn by Miss Hay. And now arriving on the scene are two rather weather beaten young men-but, who wouldn't look weather beaten if they had just emerged from the sea? The young men in question are Hugh Davis, the electrician, and Fred Van Kirk, the director of the latest Darzan film. What can that queer noise be? Why, there seems to be someone paddling furiously toward shore. He looks as though he might possibly sink. Oh no, there goes Laddie Crncic to the rescue of the soul in need -Laddie, by the way, is Socko Rassendale, the villain in the play, but forgetting his art for the time being, he is concentrating all his efforts on saving. Just a minute, folks! If we look closer we might be able to distinguish who it isYYes . . . why it's Prank Marinelli, Miss Hay's press agent. Due to Mr. Crncic's heroic efforts Frank is now being brought back to earth, However, there are those who claim it is the first time, but who knows? Now is that gratitude? Prank is reproach- ing Laddie because he didn't save Minnie. Well Frank, every dog has his day -or maybe we're wrong! And here comes the last victim, Janet Young, who is the popular cook for the company. Janet was busy collecting her pots and pans. That's the reason we didn't notice her before. And now the entire group have assembled on the beach, the question seems to be What to do. They seem to have reached a decision-yes, ap- parently they are going to explore the island. They've just rounded a sand dune, butfis this a mirage? No, the island which seemed utterly devoid of all life seems to be inhabited. There's a sign! If we look closer we might be able to make it out, Welcome to Nutscomere Island. Upon inquiry our much bedraggled friends have discovered that the sign is the work of Patsy Vaccaro who has hibernated on the island for an inspiration. Well, they say this is the age of miracles, but who would expect to find a cluster of modernistic buildings on a deserted island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean? Upon further research our shipwrecked victims discover that the buildings are the headquarters for the widely known Woman Haters Society, made up of numbers of the January Class of '37. Among the members are John Fergus, Lewis Colabine, Harley Allen, and Adam Andrews. Elmer Harsney is the designer of the build- ings-or should we say miniature village. It seems that the boys were bored 43 Page Thirty Es- 1 0

And now here are the famous rhythm makers featured with George Smith's Rhythmers. Anna Bennett, Anna Derkach, Anna Novak, and Anna Dulay, and can those girls swing Cpardonj . . . sing. This stream of famous personages seems to have no end. Here is Anthony Barone who sky rocketed to fame, almost over night, due to his column, XVhat the Well Dressed School Girl Should Wear. Well, here's one whom we've been waiting to see, that great football coach, Steve Bozzacco, escorting that famous platinum blonde heartbreaker, Stephana Boyko. It is rumored that Steve and Stephana are going to make Reverend Earl Brown, who is also escorting Miss Boyko, two dollars richer! Edward Leonard is now alighting: he is known as the champion lion tamer of the world. Poor Teddy felt so bad at leaving his lions that he brought Ubaldo Fumi along for companyi However, Ubaldo is a champion in his own right: he is known as the world's fastest spaghetti twister-and you should see him in actionl And here comes Paul Seifarth. Paul is an Egyptologist: his choice of a career was due to the far-eastern influence of the Senior Play. You'll have to pardon me folks, these celebrities are arriving so fast I scarcely have time to describe them. Here is Theresa Francis, the private secretary of Seymour Gross. Seymour is the owner of Seymour Pickle's Here factory. Juliette Lucarelli and Georgina DeMaria are the matrons of a children's home. Here's Dora DeNiro and Lena DeSalvo. Lena is a grand opera star, while Dora lectures on proper care for husbands. And who's this? Rose Desimone, better looking than ever, is a model housewife. And now stepping into full view is Edward Hunter, the nation wide leader of the Boy Scouts. Following him is Nina Lushinsky who has achieved great success as a poet. And here come the two Pavone girls, Josephine Elizabeth and Josephine Marie. They're doing a sister act in vaudeville. Accompanying the Pavone girls, is the singing lady of radio fame, better known to us as Leanor Gregory. Leanor is adored by children everywhere, who receive real pleasure from her songs and stories. Sweet musicl Where is it from? Now I see that Paul Haustovich, better known as Hoss and his violin, has arrived. Paul has really made a name for himself, but we knew that he would. We seem to have another authoress with us, Alice O'Kinnis. whose special theme is weight. And speaking of weight, I cannot help but mention Ruth Hammond who has become the fat lady of the Pill Busters' Circus, She attributes this excess flesh to those dainty lunches which she ate at dear old East High. Before descending from the ship, Thelma Baker and Mary D'Orazio have stopped to Hprimpf' You see they model at Maroon Gabriel's Hfive cents to one dollar store and they want to appear at their best. And here is Fred Taddei and Joe Passerelli. The boys are a trifle bow- legged, but perhaps that is due to the fact that they own and operate a dude ranch out in the wide open spaces of Texas. elf Pagr Thirly-fun X
