garage in Taylorville. He developed a keen interest in mechanics and developed superior skill along that line. After he had worked his way up to top mechanic he perfected a substitute forgisoline to be used in vehicles. Here comes Miss Barbara Franklin the now famous beautician of the Snow-White Beauty Salon in Chicago. She is the originator of the Poodle-Bob cut. She took her training while still a senior in High School and by the time she had graduated she had already shown her skill in this field. Barbara is now the assistant director of the Illinois Association of Beautician. Linda MeElroy3s the next visitor to our reunion. She is the owner of the Look Your Best Dress Salon in Litchfield. Her salon features smart fashions for the teenagers and misses of today. Linda married her dream man whom she met in Litchfield. They live in a cute apartment and arethe proud parents of an eight month baby boy. And now Dwight Lamb enters. He is known through-out the country as drummer for the Up-Beat Band. The band plays on the Top Tunes T-V show every Sunday night right after the Bob Dope Show. The band has became famous because of Dwight's drum. We hear that his eye is turned quite often to the beautiful blond singer for the band. Entering now is the former Phyllis Smith. She is the staff nurse at the Alton Hospital in Alton. She specializes in the pediatrics ward and has helped with the recovery of many children. She herself has a busy schedule with her three children at home. Her husband and she live in the subarbs of Alton in a large house. Jimmy Stewart is our next visitor. He is the manager and owner of the ABC chaincf supermarkets. We all remember when Jimmy was head clerk in his dad's store. He is all excited about the new kind of check-outs that he is going to install. Jimmy is an old-time navy man as he spent four years in the navy after his graduation. Miss Logue comes rushing in at the last minute. She used to think that h er schedule was filled up when she taught school but she says that it wasn't anything compared to her schedule now. Yes, Miss Logue has settled down and3s the mother of two children. She claims that her children are perfectly well-mannered because she had so much training to teach them with. Who is this coming through the door with a big smile on her face? Why it's Mary Margaret Jones. She always had a smile when in high school and we notice that it still prevails. Peach is the creator of the Sunny View magazine of which she is editor. When she had all the experience editing the yearbook she developed her life's ambition. Peach's magazine features information on all the better known vacation spots. Her motto is, A trip will vanish your troubles. We must bide good-bye to all our friends and wish them success in 28 the three-ring circus of life.
