Jn. i almost p I I I By Virginia Howe n I, a-reporter on the New York Times , had just been given a new and seem- ingly difticult assignment. My boss had very calmly told me, Find out what happens to an averagegroup of high school Seniors, say, ten years after they were graduated. At first this seemed utterly impossible - impossible until I remembered -that I had been graduated just ten years ago myself. NN hy, it was just perfect. l could have a vacation on the Times ' expense account. So I merrily started out. My first stop was just a few blocks away, on Broadway. There at the Astor Tueater, Maurice Knapp was playing his fourth record-breaking year in Where's Maurice?,'. He sent me over to the Radio City Music Hall where I found Elaine DeClaro as head ticket seller. She and Maurice both had their start in Phelps, Elaine at the Phelps Theater, and Maurice in the fabulous Senior Assembly. Not knowing where to look next, I jumped into my jet plane and flew to Phelps. The old town had changed quite a bit, having grown in population, industry and culture. My first stop in Phelps was at the Empire State Pickling Company, where Lee Wilson is the head of an ever-growing company. He sent me down to the Phelps Recreation and Musical Club, in othe-r words, the Pool Hall. 'there I found our two old faithfuls of the .former Pool Hall, Kenny I.. Smith, and Dick Steen. Al this establishment, tdon't ask me how I got in? not only recreation is offered but also a musical lesson, or a course in telling tall stories tfor a slight fee, of coursel. On my way to the metropolisof Oaks Corners, I witnessed a very interesting sight, a distinguished-looking man was receiving a ticket from a burley-looking trooper. Upon closer inspection I found the driver to be Grove A. Nagel and the trooper to be Kenny A. Smith. Kenny didn't seem too unhappy about the whole thing. Amazement is the only word which can describe my feelings when I reached Oaks Corners. The place had grown tremendously, and was in the midst of a hot political election. Dick and Ed Oaks were opposing each other for the mayorship. Ed is now the head of a large bean factory, while Dick is his chief salesman, with a girl in every port. VVhile in Oaks Corners I was invited to watch television, so of course accept- ed. To my utter amazement I spied my old friend, Nancy Graves, wrestling in a main bout. It is said that she is one of the best in the business. Her high school training came in handy. Fl 'in toward Lyons I spied a thriving settlement on the Geneva-Lyons I g t' tinff I found a tourist home on a small lake run bv hverctt Peck. d. ' . . , . - Elggrettnllgs fggde muse of beautiful Peck's Pond, which the Seniors used to enjoy so much. In the same vicinity I noticed an enormous new factory. The sign was visible for a distance of two miles and said, Wintergreen Lifesaver Factory - Phyl Han- I went up to see Phyl who greeted me with her usual roll of life- sen owner . savers. Besides showing me all her 14 cats. Phyl gave me news of other class mem- bers. ' 1 t .f the ffirls were old married women. Marie Benge and Cha32ST?l'11?obfsilislf:aIif1, Sjodus, while May McAllister and Clarence Fegley live in Waterloo. I did not have time to see these two class members but from all reports they are very happy.
