' Zane May 26, 1964 DEAR JAKE, It certainly was a shame you couldn't attend our tenth annual class reunion at The Moulin Rouge,', Paris, France. However, Tom Dorre, head of the De- partment of Conservation, could not persuade the other great hunters to change the opening day of duck season. As you remember, Pierre, the great artist, was present at M. C. H. S. in 54 and painted our class portrait. Upon his departure, he invited us to France for our l964 reunion. Excitement reached its peak as the day drew near. Chanooka's pride and joy is jim Bretschfv new steamboat line. The crowd gathered at the gang plank of his newly christened tug, the U.S.S. Jeanie. Of course, jim named his boat after his beloved wife, the former jean Rushton, one of our old classmates. As the whistle blew the crowd pushed its way forward. Oh-Oh! Collision! There is high society in the crowd. That fabulous Moneybags Moore, starring in the opera, Porkie and Bess, just bumped into Barbara Todd. Martha was awarded the Booby Oscar for portraying that startling character, Porkie. Barbara is now Mrs. George Winkel. They are the co-owners of Georgie Ann's Three Ring Circus. More rings will be added as the family increases. The star performer in this catastrophe is sword-swallowing Suey Ann, whose diet consists of a dozen twelve-inch swords per day. In real life this artist is known as Sue Montgomery. As the boat left the mooring, a shrill cry pierced the air. The man-about-town, Wes Cook, who is known for his many jet convertibles, zoomed up. Late again! Slow Poke. He pushed a button and down came the water wings. Across the water he glided. Oh, this modern age! The group was happy to take in the surrounding sights from the boat, but everyone was happy when the boat trip ended. The next lap of their journey was to be taken on a fast clipper from Chicago. At the airport two more old classmates joined the group. These two were Charlene McEvilly and Bev Orlomoski. Charlene is living alone in her Chicago penthouse now. To the surprise of most of the group, these two are confirmed old maids. Charlene is now the owner of The Dime a Dozen Used Car lot, which specializes in Hudson Convertibles. Her slogan is You wreck 'em and wc'll sell 'em. Bev was visiting Charlene. Her home town is Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Up-and-coming Orlomoski, who has been currently appearing on radio station A-R-G-U-E, is giving Senator McCarthy a run for his money. As everyone was being seated, the stewardess came from within the cabin of the ship, calling her f'hello's.n Who was this shapely figure? None other than Dorothy Wendell, who had reduced. Dot is now down to a trim 110. She made everyone comfortable, and it wasn't long before safety belts were fastened and the ship was going down for ia landing. After the plane bounced down the landing strip, the door of the pilot's cabin jolted open. Who should fall out of the cabin, but Leslie Garnbeef Les had now made his first trans-Atlantic fiight. Everyone scrambled to get his first glimpse of France. It wasn't long before our chartered bus pulled up. There was a wild scramble for seats and away we went. In and out of traffic, our sight seeing bus weaved and zoomed. Confusion in front of the bus drew everyone's attention. It seemed as if a dozen kids were fighting over one piece of candy. The bus driver turned around to see what the commotion was fAs if we couldn't tell -Y a woman driver!l Face looks familiar, hair looks familiar. Oh, no! Marlene Gug- lielmetti. Seems as if Marlene snagged that former M. C. H. S. graduate. The little monster's in the front of the bus were all Marlene's. We stopped in front of the Eiffel Tower to get more views. There was a street photographer, taking pictures of other tourists. We decided to have a group picture taken for future remembrances. The photographer was busy arranging the group for our picture when someone noticed who it was-- Earlene Binkele. They exchanged bits of gossip and then bade us farewell, but not before assuring us that they would meet us again at the reunion party that night. At the hotel reserved for M, C. H. S. graduates we were glad to find Carol Greenwood. She is the owner of the Rue de la Paix, Paris' finest tourist hotel. Carol rang the bell, and her efficient bell-boy appeared. Richie Severson sure looks nice in a blue suit! He came skipping down the stairs whistling his latest tune, f'Blue Bottom Bellsfl He writes songs in his spare time. After we checked our luggage we registered. On the hotel register we noticed a familiar scribble. Looking up from the book we noticed the glamorous Christin De', a famous model, ascending the stairs. She paused for a moment, and everyone was sur- prised to see how joAnn Dollinger had changed. That evening everyone gathered at the Moulin Rouge, which is now owned by Monsieur Gene Winterbottorn. Featured singer in this famous night- club was Mademoiselle Frantwa Szyrnanski. Her favorite selection was Take Me Back to Good Ole Minookef' After she finished singing, out came a line of can-can dancers. The one on the end didn't quite make it and found herself sprawled on the floor. When she picked herself up, we saw it was Lorraine Peterson. just as the party got started, another '54-I celebrity walked in. We couldn't believe our eyes. We thought Miss Holt, our adviser, had forgotten us. Miss Holt told the group that she was attending school to learn how to speak French. She had decided to make a career of teaching French instead of English. The party broke up in the wee hours of the morning. Everyone was sad, thinking that soon they would have to part. Before the party broke up, plans were made to hold their next reunion in five years at Minooka. Sorry you missed it, but we will look forward to seeing you in 1969. SPIRIT or '54
