Carol Spaulding, Commander-in-Chief of the monkey cages. Bill Dobberstein, chief caretaker of the elephants, and Larry Belanger, who takes care of all odd jobs. Leav- ing the zoo we met Jim Fish and Joyce Laura, head chemists for the Atomic Plant. We chatted for a while and then the Commander said we must leave as it was nearing the zero hour. So we said good-bye and headed for the space station. To top off our visit to Newport, the Commander took us all through the space sta- tion. During this tour we also met a huge number of old friends. In the control tower we met Ginny LaVoy, Jackie McCray, Pat Prucka, and Frieda Penny, who directed the incoming and outgoing of ships. They told us many of our classmates were working there. They were Donna Aselstyne, Judy Bodenmiller, Eva Jane Bordine, Shirley Branch, Ted Price, Grant Stewart, Bev Reaume, David Dumont, Frank Dudek, and Barbara Harvell. The Martians were scheduled to arrive at 5:30 P. M. It was then 5:00 and everyone was busy preparing for their arrival. Down on the runway were Janice Otter, Shirley Parkhurst, Lou Ann Otter, and Shirley Ochs, NBC cameramen who were setting up cameras for the TV broadcast. The Master of Ceremonies, Charles Sanders, was busy talking over last minute details with Loyal Boulton, President of the U. S. At the other end of the runway Judy Burris, the fire chief, was telling her firegirls Mary Ann Roberts, Karen Reynolds, Marlene Stein, Rosemary Meyers, Jean Johnston, Pat Pete, and Emile Caldwell what to do in case of a crash landing. Not far from them were four ambu- lances driven by Gloria Pinson, Susan Zlatos, Evelyn Wallace, and Judy Freimark, pre- paring for any emergencies. Just pulling up to the station were Bob Haut, the Mayor of Newport and Velma No- witzke, Jo Ann Chinavare, Margaret Johnson, and Don Sherman, four members of the city council, driven by the mayor's chauffeur, George Campbell. They headed direct- ly to the field where the ceremony was taking place. We received word from Nancy Chinavare, a radio operator at our space station, that the Martian ship was in sight and would soon be ready to land. A few minutes later, the ship was visible to all. While it was preparing to land, the city band, led by Judy Kokai, started playing a march. The space ship landed safely and three field workers, Roger Corne, Dianne Schultz, and Jerry Tilley, quickly hooked the stairs to the ship. The Martians stepped out of their space ship and after a welcoming speech, the big celebration started. Feeling very weary after our strenuous activities of the day, we decided to turn in. We headed for Mary Walpatich’s hotel, where we had previously made reservations. The desk clerk, Sally Trotter, told us our bags had been taken to our rooms. Wearily we got into the elevator which was operated by Donna Masson and went to our rooms. That evening as we talked over old times, we realized all the changes that had taken place in the past few years and were very happy that we had had this chance to visit our old friends. THE END
