Gi Peoples HIS is an excerpt from Nurse Louise Hall’s diary. Miss Hall, a gradu- ate of 1941 of the Altavista High School, is now in a London hospital, nursing the English soldiers who have been wounded in the war which is still raging. This section of her diary reads as follows: “Dear Diary: As I was binding a soldier’s wounds, guess what I found out about him? He was psychic to an extreme degree and informed me that he could reveal news to me about anyone concerning whom I might te interested. Lately memories of my high school days have crowded upon me and | was consumed with curiosity as to what each one of the old gang was doing. What else should I have asked him about other than my graduating class back in Alta- vista? I actually flooded him with questions and he answered them patiently. This is the news I gleaned. Oliver Hutcherson is a tobacco farmer in Canada. Sybil Reynolds is piano accompanist in Glenn Miller's Orchestra. Don Mergler is manager of one of Pender’s Stores in Norfolk. Dorothy Lowman is married and raising a family of very tall boys and neat little girls. Joe Creasy is escorting Public Deb No. | about the night spots in New York, Chicago, Hollywood, and points west. Clara Pickrel is in New York tripping the light fantastic with the most eligible bachelors in town. J. W. Hamner, Jr., is now Superintendent of the Blue Ridge Rayon Mill and is still as witty as ever. Katherine Lowman is buyer for New York’s fashionable Lord and Taylor’s. Billy Wilburn hasn’t stopped matching nickels and dimes yet. (Really, Billy, I think you lost enough back in your senior year). But even so, he is a great success following Dad’s footsteps, managing Bibee’s. Lois Stinnette has found her Home Economics course useful. She is now a dietitian in a military academy. (Oh well, I can’t say I blame you, Lois). Dan McCoy is holding a high position on the third shift in the Blue Ridge Rayon Mill and is still waiting for the nght girl. Elizabeth Lewis’ friend has now returned from the army and there will be a June wedding. Needham Wilson is in Honolulu. He has purchased an enormous quan- tity of grass skirts for distribution to numerous girl friends back in the states. Clara Newman is seen as Home Economics teacher in A. H. S. with Miss Bailey as county supervisor. ALTAVISTA HIGH SCHOOL
