IT ISN'T HElL I couldnit 'help reflecting, as I laid aside the morning issue of 'the World Times. that only seven years ago Paul Murphy had grad-u-ated with the class of '57, now here he was, tthe edlltor of this world-wide syndicated newspaper. I wonder how his classmates have fared. So saying, I picked up my hat, went out, and was about to hail a cab when a Ford Fllatihead V8 hot rod, comiplete with dual manifold, headers, and special ignition pulled up beside me and the driver asked if he could take me someplace. Charles .Saner! I exclaimed. Yeah, I guess I can',t leave cars alone, he grinned. As I settled myself in tlhe front seat I asked 'him if he knew any- thing about this classmlates, Not m-udh. I do know Donna Clark and Karel I-lollinfgswonth fhave the K Gr D Dress Shop dhain specializing in petit sizes. Norma Sicks married and is still living in Akron. As we came to the mddle of -the block, a shapely, honey- haired dtamsel wearing dark glasses 'turned the corner ahead of uis. I had gotten a glimpse of her and ordered Charles to speed up and catch lier before she disappeared. This woman was Lili Oarla Sohillen, the renown actress tirom Vienna, she had 'told reportersl who disliked fans and uwahntted to be lef' alon'. I had seen her pictures in the paper this morning, the face was familiar and I was positive I knew 'her from somewthere, but I couldn'rt recall when or wlhere. Her hurrying footsteps were no match for the car, though, and we were beside her in a matter of seconds. Opening the car door, I asked her if perhaps she would care to ride instead of -tiring 'herself walking. Aw, turn blue! she replied and duacked inlto an alley and was soon out of sight. 'Dhen it came to me! Lili Carla was none otfher than hily Cfarol Sklillen back at AHS. From Vienna yet, I dhuckled. .Back in the car, I turned on the radio and was nearly deafened by an advertisement for Smoker Smoked Sausages. Ernie was doing very well with his business, thanks to Bar- bara Shriver Iohnson, a westdcoast housewife who had sold him her sausage recipe lor a large sutm of money. With that money she hlad backed a struggling clothes designer, now, Iill Aulrt was acclaimed by iashlion experts all over tlhe world. Bat she wasnt exclusively a clothes designer. She ilhxsftrated books and was currently in Madrid with an ex- hibition of her charcoal drawings. lust then I remermlbered a small item in the morning paper saying she would return today, so Charles and I raced to Gill:-ert's airport. Hahn had struck oil wlhile digging around and had donated part of his millions for the avirportl As the passengers left the plane, they regrertfzully said their farewells to the pretty stewardess, Helen H-uppent, and the pilots, Larry Krieg and Ronnie Iones. Finally, Iill ap- peared and after a flurry of greetings, I asked her what she knew about her classmates. Everything, she answered and rattled oft in rapid succession that: Ill Ioycelyn Moore- had gone to Paris to study music but was distracted by a Frenah sculptor. Now she's married and giving sculpturing lesson: t2l Don Fellers was a matador in Spain, t3l Bill Ward was a diplomatic courier and she had met him in Madrid where they had luncvhed together and exchanged information about their classmates. Wvhile on a mission to Britain, Bill had met Rex Eiler who had lived so long in London that he spoke with a clipped British accent - a charming combination with that red hair and regal name. 'Ilhen flying to Africa, Bill had met Leroy Kirk w-ho was on missionary dusty there. I-Ie had directed Bill to Bob I-IatJtery's lodgings. fBob was an explorer and big-game hunter along with 'his friend, 'Iack'.l The two men had lunched together and Bill informed Bob that Becky Oliver, having become disgusted with civilization and its gustration, had gone to Haiti and become a 'calypso-voodo ancer. Having told Oharles and me all she knew, Iill wenut on her way. Before leaving the airport, I picked up a box of Gena- vee's Gooey Goodies to take home. Again I turned on the car radio and was immediately enveloped by the husky, honey-dripping voice of Horace Barnes, radio's Lonesome Guy . I couldn't tolerate him, though. and switched to an- other station just in time to hear Mike Co1bert's jazz band, consisting, among others, of Oliver Powell on sax, anid lofhn Ramsey on trumpet. Charles took me home and as I stepped out, he said, Oh, I forgot to tell you, Helen Wood lhad gone outt West to be- come a cowgirl in Colorado. Thanks, I said and hurried into the ehouse, I would really have to rush if I intended to catch the early movie. Soon, I was dressed and on my way to see Ronnie Kulhn and Marcia Meredith in the most pas- sion' te remake of Camille since Gilbert and Garbo. Signed: Becky Oliver
