How does it happen you’re here today? ” “Why, I’m an old classmate of the groom. He graduated from Hemlock High School in 1954, and he has invited all the members of his class to his wedding. “Hemlock? I heard that the famous TV star of “Life Is Worth Living If You Don’t Drive Too Fast , DONNA CRAVEN, came from there, too. “Yes, she did. From what I remember, her program is a follow-up of her high school days.” “Thank you, Mr. Burdo------A lot of guests have arrived during this interview. Let’s try to overhear the conversation between those two ladies. “Why, NORMA SNYDER, I haven’t seen you for at least 10 years. You must work your- self as hard as you used to. Are you still‘Nimble Norma’on the trapeze for the Big Top? “CONNIE WANLESSI Hello! Yes, I still perform and love every minute of it.

cUss histoRy In the year of 1950 we, as lowly Freshmen, were initiated by the sophomores with a bang. After we weathered this, we began our high school days as sturdy do alls. We gathered a fine group of talent together for the annual Freshman Talent Show. This was the beginning of our bank account. Our class officers for that year were: President, Frank Rauchholz; Vice President, Gerald Fiting; Secretary, Jean Peters; Treasurer, Pat Rogers; Student Council, Norma Snyder and Glen Chapin. During this year we gained Virginia Betts and lost Richard Kaiser and Jean Peters. Then 1951 came around making us Sophomores and giving us a chance to take revenge on the Freshmen in initiation. Later on in the year we gave a barn dance to help our class fund. The class officers were: President, Frances Kohlhoff; Vice-President, Roy Burdo; Secretary, Jo Ann Van Bocxlaer; Treasurer, Glen Chapin; Student Council, Helen Wilt and Ray Burdo. We gained Ralph Barst and lost Patsy Jewell, Beverly Emeott, Jean Lake, Bob Rusmisel, Jack Sheler, Marilyn Varney, Donna Alexander, and Bonnie and Kay Shultz. As our junior year approached we found we needed a lot more money for the senior trip. Our activities for that year included a card party, bake sales, a Sadie Hawkins dance, and the Junior Play “Love is Too Much Trouble”. The highlight of our junior year was the Junior and Senior Prom with Moonlight and Roses as its theme. As is the custom, we closed the junior year activities by giving the Junior-Senior Banquet for theout-going seniors. Class officers for that year were: President, Wayne Kreager; Vice-President, Frank Rauchholz; Secretary, Judy Rockwell; Treasure, Dorothy Kaltenbach; Historian, Norma Snyder; Parlimentarian, Ralph Barst; Student Council, Donna Boruff and Frances Kohlhoff. We lost Ruth Burns, Donna Boruff, Lonzo and Rondy Cody, and Tom Smith. As we faced our senior year, 1953-54, we knew our financial situation needed attention, so we began a year of money-making activities. This included two suppers, a barn dance, juke- box dances after games, two bake sales, and a weekend of hard work at the new Standard Oil Station in Hemlock. We also gave a Senior play to help our finances. On May 24 we were re- warded with a trip to Washington D. C. The class officers for our last year were: President, Ray Burdo; Vice-President, Roy Burdo; Secretary, Judy Rockwell, Treasurer, Frances Kohl- hoff; Student Council, Frances Kohlhoff and Wayne Kreager.

“We’ll now switch to our second camera located in another part of the church. Here we find several guests who seem to be renewing old memories. As we turn on our microphones we hear JERRY LYNCH and RALPH BARST, two well-known politicians just endiqg a discussion on world affairs. Of course, you all know that Mr. Lynch is Michigan’s governor and Mr. Barst is our most popular representative.” “Well, Jerry, that’s enough on that subject. You know, I was talking to RAY HOWE a while ago, and he was telling me about his 1000-acre cattle ranch in Oklahoma. He uses his helicopter now to get from one field to the next, instead of the hot-rod he used to just fly low in.” “Yeah! I guess all those times we thought he was sleeping in school he must have been dreaming up a good future. I was talking to JACK BOZUNG, too. He owns a small garage back in Hemlock and has a lawn-mower sharpening business on the side. He was telling me that HELEN WILT and GLADYS KELLEY were sorry they couldn’t come. They’re both married now to their old steady beaus, and they couldn't find any baby sitters for their little monsters.” “Well, that’s the way it goes sometimes. Say, I heard that PAT ROGERS is one of the most dignified and clever models for ‘CHARM’ in New York. She sure has worked her way up the ladder. She started out for ‘Sears Roebuck’ back in 1956.” “Let’s go now to the sidewalk outside the church. We have discovered that our camera- man is from the Hemlock vicinity and knows several of the guests. Let's listen as he introduces more ot the grooms old classmates.” “Thank you, Mr. Bronchitus. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like you to meet a lady who is one of those that few appreciate but who is very important to our American democracy. Her name is MARY McCLELLAN and she is the Circuit Court Judge for the state of Michigan. “Next we would like you to meet VIRGINIA BETTS, the secretary to America’s best beloved tap dancer, C. Wilbur Wiggle. We have often heard Mr. Wiggle comment that she is in- valuable to him as a secretary, and that he would’t trade her for her weight in gold. “Driving up in a Jauguar we see two men who are in the motion picture field. Sorry to say they aren’t famous in themselves but they seem to have promising careers ahead of them. The first is GERALD KENNELLY, understudy to Slip Mahoney, leader of the lovable Bowery Boys. The second is JOSEPH HORNY. He’d like to be another Rudolph Valentino but he’s only an understudy to dashing Rock Hudson. Oh, there’s a lady I’m sure everyone would like to know. She’s VIRGINIA HORNY, chief chef at the ‘Brown Derby’, Hollywoods most famous night spot. Her specialty is cherry pie, and what cherry pie! There’s another big convertible pulling up. Whocould that be? Oh, that’s DONALD ANA- MAN. He must have just arrived home from his latest African safari. I heard his catch wasn't up to par this time; he only got 2 elephants, 2 apes, 4 lions, 3 tigers, and 4 giraffes! Now, here is a man of different character. I’d like you to meet Mr. ROY BURDO. For many years he has been the pride of Doyletown and was lately elected mayor of that fair city. “Also living in that town is our nextguest. Meet veterinarian ED GREENWOOD, the friend of the friendless. He’d rather treat a stray alley cat than hear about the aches and pains of any human. “We take you back now to Mr. Bronchitus.” “Thank you, Mr. Johnson, for letting us meet those interesting people. We shall take you back now to our first camera in the entrance of the church. There seems to be quite an interesting conversation going on between more of the guests. We’ll see if we can pick it up on our hidden mikes.” “CORINE LIEBROCK in the Lonely Hearts business! I never would have believed it I Will wonders never cease! ? ”
