Seeing a new barber shop in town, Oscar decided to give the recently arrived barber a trial. On entering he was very much surprised to see beside the chair an exceedingly large person who seemed familiar. It was none other than his old classmate, Leland Etchi- '7 son. Naturally, during the course of the shave and haircut, the two old pals began 'Sl talking of the old class of '25 and of the good' times they had during their four years 2.3 in Alexandria High School. gf Wouldn't it be wonderful to see that old gang again? remarked Oscar. Yes, answered Leland. Too good to think of as possible. Of course, it isn't possible, said Oscar, but I like to dream of it. Why not possible? asked Leland. Well, we don't know where they all live or how to get in touch with them or any- ' thing, :said Oscar. Yes, but I do, and a broad grin of satisfaction illuminated Leland's countenance. I have kept the address of each of the old classmates, and if by chance, it has chang- Y ed, I have obtained the new one by some means or other. Fine, exclaimed Oscar, jumping up and forgetting his precarious position and S almost getting his throat cut as a result. Let's have a banquet back in A. H. S., with 7 all the old classmates present. S The two talked on for some time, Oscar receiving many cuts with the razor, but if he was too absorbed in his thoughts to even notice them. The plans were made, and 5 within a few weeks the class of '25 was again together, having been 'separated for ten yeans. Such a success! They had all changed to some extent in the years that had Q elapsed, but it was the same old jolly class. , The most interesting event of the evening was that in which each one told of his or her experiences from the time they had left High School. The experiences of each alone cannot be related, but their presnt occupation can be briefly told. Q To begin with, Joe Baxter stayed with his job, and is now part owner of a ilne group of candy kitchens. You wonder who owns the other part? None other than J Eddie Meyer, once prop of the A. H. S. basketball team. He is still a bachelor, forever true to Esther Hall, who, being unable to decide between her two lovers, entered a con- vent and is now the bride of the church. Speak-ing of former cases, brings back the ZZ memory of Chic and Frances. Do you remember all the bright predictions made for Z Chic's future? Well his ambition seemed to increase in leaps and bounds until after Lobengrin's Wedding March was played for them, then it .suddenly disappeared, with 3? the result that Frances .is now a hard-working stenographer in the oflice of Roscoe Tel- fer, editor of the Indianapolis News, Roscoe is a great patron of the theatre, es- pecially of the Russian Ballet, of which our old friend, Ruth Ritchison, is premier danseuse. Her dieting was not in vain. Much to the delight of Blanche, -er-Russell, Babe Ruth has retired. But why should she be interested in Babe Ruth? Because Bill is now a member of the Yanks and has already broken the Bambino's home-run record several times. 5 There were a few of the class of '25 who were unable to attend the banquet be- Q cause they are living abroad. James Zedekar is playing Hamlet at the Drury Lane Y Theatre, London, in the longest run known. He has delighted thousands with his representation of the melancholy Dane. Do you remember his success as the irate parent in The Colonel's Maid? And we were not at all surprised when we learned that Mary Margaret Martin is now the partner of Maurice, dancing in the Casino at 5, Monte Carlo. It is rumored that she has broken the hearts of three-tourths of the QQ: 1, Qs 'ff x t A Page Twenty-six K
