A mountain guide may not be the most feminine job in the world for a woman but our little Frankie Caver doesn't seem to mind. You've never in all your life seen anybody scamper up the Mata Horn as this woman does. She told me personally there is nothing more exhilarating than to stand on the top of this famous peak and peal out a swiss yodel that can be heard for miles below. Such a voice! I could have sworn I saw the mountain trembling. While visiting the casbah in Egypt, I chanced upon the very secluded Cafe Tamberline as the throbingof the native orchestra started up. To the haunting rhythum, out of a spangled door way slinked the exotic snake dancer, Winifred Fuller. In old Powers High she always seemed so quiet and demur, well one never knows does one. Low and Behold! Who would have ever dreamed such a thing of Jean Anderson who has become the greatest torador in all Mexico.

The famous wild game hunter Loretta Mann is on another ex- citing hunt in the wild jungles of Africa. I hear tell she has been tracking down a most cunning and elusive parrot for months. I have also heard tell, from across the swinging grapevine, that she just can't stand his ferocious, snarling back talk and will relent- lessly press on with increasing determination until this mocking beast is caught. Sad as it is to say this ends the story of the Class of '52'. As I have said before about fate, one never knows does one.
