Dcdimfirw It gives the Junior Class of 1951-52 great pleasure to be able to dedicate this edition of The Wayne Echo to our most sincere friend, Superintend- ent E. Lehr Bailey. His unfailing helpfulness has been of inestimable value in making our school term a success. He has faith- fully served us for two years and we hope that he will return for many more. It was largely through him that our present school bond issue passed.

His name, as you know him, is Gary McCormick. We recognized each other at once and stopped for a moment to chat. I soon learned that Gary lives in California and is a very successful electrical engineer. By the way, he is still an eligible bachelor. Our conversation soon drifted back to our high school days and our former classmates. As it was my day off we decided to look up some of them. We started our visits from Waynesfield, Ohio where our Alma Mater is located. We soon discovered that a new wing has been added to our school so we stopped for a moment to inspect it. To our surprise we found that the twins, Evelyn and Ncvelyn Hexlcman, are teaching the two second grade classes. We learned from the twins the whereabouts of other classmates. They informed us of the marriage of Gene Barnes and Mary Ellen Hunter. Gene's father has retired from the farm and Gene is doing quite well for himself and family. Another prosperous farmer is Bob Riff, who is ever enlarging his herd of Brown Swiss cattle. We also learned that Vera Jean Gossard is married to Duane Copeland. They live very happily in their own home with their five lovely children. After we left our Alma Mater and continued through the town we saw a sign announcing Kaufman's Hard- ware. We discovered that Russell is proving to be a strong competitor of his former employers. Russell informed us that he has not yet asked Shirley the important question, but intends to any day now. Russell turned on one of his very modern technicolor television sets and we saw another one of our classmates, Darrell Kent. Darrell is proving to be a great singer. Perry Como is thinking of retiring and turning his con- tract over to Darrell. After Darrell's hour program was over we were pre- sented with the news. We found that a noted rancher, Dick Arthur, has struck another oil well on his Texas ranch. Dick has decided to use part of his money to pay the national debt and lower his income tax. We also saw a style review as we watched television and were surprised to find that the new Paris fashions are being designed by Jackie Blodgett. Russell told us that Wanda Shaw and Donna jean Gross are also successful career women. They are doing rather well in a large New York City department store. As it was getting late in -the afternoon we decided to visit with a few of our friends by photophone, a new invention that allows you to talk to a person and see him at the same time. We talked to Dolores Young, now Painter, by photo' phone and learned that Wilbur is now operating a jet service station and is teaching his red-haired son the trade. From Dolores we learned that Ila McKinney is living a contented life with her husband, Bill Wolfe, and their two children. As Gary picked up the Photophone directory we saw on the cover an advertisement of Miller's Fishing Camp in Canada. Talking to Jim by photophone we learned that John Swartz had been in Canada during a vacation from his attorney's office. jim also related to us Richard Shield's success as a physician. He owes his experience to the play entitled, The Mystery of Mouldy Manor, in which he played the part of a mad man, Dr. Carver. Our conversation with Jim was ended quite abruptly as our time limit was up and Gary was out of dimes. Later, as we passed the old Hi-Speed station on the corner we saw a new 1962 Buick sedan sitting at the gasoline pumps. We were surprised to see Shirley Miller stepping out of the car. We stopped to talk to her for a moment. We found that she is happily married to a successful doctor. We asked her how Ruth Ann McDuffee and Norma Emrick are making out. She told us that Norma is fast gaining recognition as a laboratory technician in Columbus and Ruth Ann is very well satisfied with her job as English professor at Ohio Northern University. She owes her knowledge of English to our former English teacher and class ad- viser, Mr. Eugene Hemphill. That concluded our visits for now as I had to return to my duties. We sped back to Lima in Gary's jet convertible. We bade adieu and returned to our respective occu- pations feeling quite happy at having refreshed our memories of our friends and classmates. Betty I.
