Ruth: I guess, we all know that Ann is editor of Readers Digest. Dale: Another one who is progressing is Luther, who is treasurer of National Bank of Chicago. Victor: Eugene is doing all right for him- self, too, as coach at Notre Dame. Ruth: I guess so. They've had a victor- ious football team ever since he started to coach there. Alethea: I received a letter from Shirley a couple of weeks ago, and she said that Mary Iane had told her that she has accepted a position as Commercial Instructor at Colum- bia University. Victor: That sounds all right, too. We must not forget Eddy and his orchestra. He and his Hep Cats are now playing at Hotel Astor in New York City. Dale: He really has a good orchestra, too. They broadcasted direct from the ballroom the other night. Ruth: Talking about ballrooms reminds me-Douglas is a dance instructor now. From what I hear he's quite good. Alethea: There seems to be quite a few in New York City. Besides all the ones we have mentioned, there is also Ieanette and Ioann who have a Dress Shoppe on Fifth Avenue. Ruth: Coleen is a beautician and has the largest Beauty Shoppe in Chicago. It is strictly for the aristocrats in that vicinity. Alethea: Kathryn is a cosmetician in Hollywood. She made up Betty Grable in her latest picture. Dale: Hollywood reminds me-we just about forgot that great comedian Ben Iacky, former Dick Rahe. Victor: I think he's pretty good. Did you hear him on the radio last Thursday night? Dale: No, but I heard he was good. Alethea: I guess Vic thought he was all right. I thought he would split laughing. Ruth: Besides Kathryn and Dick, Lois is also in California. She is dietician of one of the largest hospitals in San Francisco. Victor: Then there's also Carsten, who also has a large fruit farm in California. Dale: Say, that's right, we almost for- got about him. He really is making a name for himself. Alethea: Well, we've mentioned nine- teen of our classmates. There's only four more. Ruth: That's right! There's still Mildred, Ruth W., Lavonne, and Bruce. Dale: I wonder how Bruce is coming on his ranch? Victor: All right, I guess. We received a letter from him last week end and he said that he was planning on feeding 800 cattle next year. Alethea: He seems much more satisfied since he moved back to Kansas. You know he has married someone from there and that they have three children. Ruth: Yes, I believe you told me that. Mildred is also married. She married some rich dude from Detroit, and they had a beauti- ful Iune wedding. Alethea: Do you know where Ruth W. is and what she is doing? Ruth: The last time I heard, she was the music instructor at some college at Nyack, New York. Dale: Quite a few of our classmates went into the teaching profession. Victor: Well, I guess we have mentioned all our classmates now but Lavonne. Ruth: Say! That reminds me! It's time for her program. I can't miss that! Do you listen to The Right to Sorrow ? Alethea: I certainly do. After I heard that Lavonne plays the role of Marge, I never miss it. It really is exciting now, isn't it? Ruth: It surely is! Her other program, Iohn's Tenth Wife, is also interesting. Dale: Well, I guess we've mentioned all of our classmates now. Victor: Yes, I guess we have. That makes 23. Ruth: On the whole, our class has really done all right for themselves. Alethea: They certainly have, but say, if we don't turn on our radio immediately we're going to miss our program.

three in number. This year we are happy to have as our sponsor, Miss Geraldine Curl. The first great event of the year was the photographing of our beautiful and handsome faces at the Dickens' Studio in Fostoria, Octo- ber 20. Our officers for the year are as fol- lows: President ........... Edwin Hapgood Vice President A,,....,, Dale Bruning Secretary .r,,...... Shirley Schwan Treasurer .........., Luther Henline Annual Reporter .....,.. Lois Thone We were very sorry to lose Rita Knight, Warren Brolhost, and Doris Iividen. We were glad to welcome Coleen Pollard into our midst. We held a chicken supper November 16 in the auditorium. We planned a program and also raffled off a turkey and a duck. December 23 we had a Christmas Party at the school house. We played games for about two hours and then all opened our presents. After that we served a very nice lunch. We chose our class colors, motto, caps. gowns, invitations and name cards in Ianuary. We had a party for the Basketball Team at Wolfe's. It was sponsored by the Senior girls and the rest of the boys who weren't on the team. We had little basketballs for their name cards, and also had pennants hung on the walls. A very nice lunch was served and everyone enjoyed the party. The Baccalaureate Service was held on May 13, under the direction of Rev. T. G. Buntz of the Lutheran Church. The Commencement Service was held May 16. We have come to the end of our 'four years together. We shared many hours of work and play. The teachers have put up with all our pranks and ministered to our minds for four long years. We are sorry to leave fellow students in other classes, and wish them all many happy hours to come. As we say farewell, we want them to know we really appreciate all the hours they spent with us. After graduation some will go one way, and some another, but our memories of the Pemberville High School days can never be erased. CLASS PHOPHECY OF 1945 Time: 1955 Place: Pacific Ocean The large, well-known ocean liner Pem- beretta is enroute to Hawaii. On board we find four members of the Class of 1945. They are Mr. and Mrs. Victor Kohring and Mr. and Mrs. Dale Bruning, who have decided to va- cation at Hawaii. As we listen in, we are just in time to hear them talk about their classmates. Ruth: This surely has been a lovely trip. So far, I have enjoyed every minute of it. Alethea: I truthfully can say the same. It certainly was swell we could all take this trip together. Ruth: I only wish all of our good old class- mates could be with us. Dale: That surely would be nice, but that's wishing a little too much. Alethea: Yes, I'm afraid it is, 'cause most of them are either tied down with a family'or work. Ruth: I guess that's right. We were cer- tainly lucky to have our parents keep our children. Alethea: I guess so. I wonder if lunior and Carolyn will get homesick for us? Ruth: I'm just afraid our twins will. Alethea: I imagine our two youngsters will, too. Ruth: I bet the twins really keep mother busy. They do me. I don't see how Shirley gets anything done with her four children. Alethea: I don't either. They really are livewires, too. It surely is a good start for a football team. Dale: I don't even know where some of our classmates are or what they are doing. Victor: I don't know either. Our class really scattered soon after graduation. Ruth: It surely did. Since we are just settled here with nothing much to do, let's just count them up and see where they are and what they are doing. Alethea: That's a good idea! We've al- ready mentioned Shirley, and since Melvin is the head of that family, we won't have to say any more about him.
