I 7 S 6 I I ZIZLOVS LL YIZHVLIZE I ELLIZLOIZ d AlI inside! All those going down to see the wonders of the deep, please get insi e. I was so excited that I could hardly think. And why shouldn't I be? After all, one doesn't go for a submarine ride every day. As I entered into the submarine, I received the surprise of my life. The captain was Merle Beebe, an ex-classmate of mine from Maricopa High. I-Ie greeted me warmly, and then called two of his assistants to his side. They were none other than Carlos Carter and Theodore Follis, two more of my ex-classmates. After talking with them for a few minutes, I hur- ried to my seat, as it was almost time for the submarine to submerge, In my excite- ment l bumped into a dark, beautifully dressed young woman, causing her to drop her purse. Oh, I beg your pardon! I am so-I-lelen Bailey! What in the world are you doing here ! I exclaimed. Why, didn't you know? she asked, flashing me a smile. All the members of the class of '37 are here for a reunion I And sure enough-I looked around to see all my old classmates grinning at me. Come and join us! they cried. Each one is going to tell his experiences since the night of graduation, As the theme of our yearbook was the Underseas in our senior year, we decided this would be a very appropriate place for a 'get- together.' Agnes Deaton was the first to begin. She said that after a whirlwind courtship, she had married Tobert Raylor, a well-known movie actor and was now residing in I-lollywood. - Yes, said Mary Devine, when Agnes had finished, l know all about that ro- mance. I covered it for the Hollywood Stars magazine. Well ! said Kenneth Dudley. My career also has something to do with stars, I am an astrologist. With the aid of my worthy assistant, Vernon I-lelms, who, I am sorry to say, is unable to be here because of business matters, l expect to reveal an- other planet, which I have named the Whaletonf' Bravo! Bravo! shouted Charles I-Ieath, Keep right on with your good work, Ken, and if you ever need a good financial backer, just call on me as I own a string of the finest race horses in the United States, Why, you're the owner of Atlasthewone, the horse that I won on at Sanita Ann the other day, announced Sylvia I-Iosking who was now a very active society woman. I do a little betting on the races, myself, said Benson lngraham. l can afford to lose, now and then, as my orange ranches have been bringing in pretty big profits. You aren't, by any chance, speaking of Sungold oranges-are you? asked Bill Johnston. - Why, yes. That's our brand, replied Benson. We buy hundreds of boxes of Sungold oranges every Christmas for our students at Johnston's School For Boys, said Bill, swelling a little with pride. Why, Bill, if I had known you owned that school, I would have sent my twins there! exclaimed Clara Kincaid. Twins! we all chorused. Come on, Clara, tell us more about yourself Well, Clara said, blushing as she spoke, there isn't much to tell, except that I am married to a Ford V-8 salesman, and we have twin boys named Marian and John. The girl who had been sitting quietly beside Clara was the next to speak. l am an actress, said Alta Mae Kinkade very dramatically My rame on the stage is Tamae Kin, and I want to be left alone. She again relapsed into silence. Page Thirteen

Page Fourteen Well, fellow classmates, you are now gazing upon Mlle. Marie Lytell the most noted dressmaker of the time! declared smartly dressed Mary Lytle. And no sooner had this burst on our ears than we were startled by another cry. Yippee! Ki! Yi! announced Mary Mann. l'm a cowgirl from Texas! And she did, indeed, look the part with her chaps, boots, five-gallon hat, in fact, everything but the horse. Our attention was now drawn to Betty and Alice Newman, who were sitting next to our Texas cowgirl. Or were they Alice and Betty Newman? Let me tell them, sis, begged Alice. No I will ! exclaimed Bett . We are ersonal secretaries for Alex and Allen 1, H P Tellus, twin owners of the Lovelorn Agency. That's the agency that helped me find the girl of my dreams, said Joffre Reyes. We are now living on my cattle ranch in the Dyama Valley. And that's also the agency that helped me patch up my quarrel with 'Mimi,' my old school flame, remarked Donald Ricker, who was now a very successful motjon picture director. This information was imparted to me by Margaret Sheppard, a very devoted wife and mother in Maricopa. The next two girls to tell of their adventures were Cla.a Sims and Frances Thomas. They said they had just returned from Japan where they had won world- wide honors in a series of tennis tournaments. ' l had the pleasure of attending a few of your tournaments, Grcver Thornton announced. l was in Japan collecting material for my latest book on 'How to Grow japanese Plants in Tour Own Back Tardf While I didn't have the honor of attending your tournaments in person, re- marked l-larold Throop, l sent one of my sport writers over to get the exclusive story for my newspaper Throopk Dirt-slingerf' lt's your turn next! demanded all my school friends as Harold ceased speaking. lt won't take long to tell what l have to say, l replied. l work as a stenog- rapher for the Flywithuss Airlines. And I am a pilot for the same airline, came from Donald Weaver, now known as Daredevil Peewee. lt's your turn, Olive, we all said as Donald finished. My husband, Olive White said, is owner of a famous opera house where l was singing when I met him. Glenna Belle Wilharber, who was the only one left to relate her experiences be- gan to talk. You have all probably heard me over the radio, but you just didn't recognize my voice. l am Dede Bella, a blues singer on the Sobawhile l-lour. We had all been so busy talking that we had failed to notice what was going on around us. But now our attention was attracted to the many peculiar fish and beauti- fully colored sea plants that inhabited the floor of the ocean. After enjoying these sights for awhile, we began to emerge, and we soon found ourselves back on land once more, bidding each other farewell. MURI EL VARLEY
