New York City Dear Mr. Vvright, l thought you might he interested to hear news ol the class of '48 and how the informa- tion came to my attention.

To my surprise, it was James Edgar Palm, the great inventor, who had been a former classmate of mine at Anderson School. He hurried to tell me of his latest invention. which, he said, worked somewhat on the principle of that wonderful old thing. television. except that with his invention no cameras, etc., were needed, that it had an automatic viewer. Upon his invitation l grahhed coat and hat and left with him. ln his new Buick. Jim introduced his friend and colleague, the co-inventor of the viewer. lt was then l realized this suave and self-assured gentleman was the Charles Raine l had known in high school. After a few minutes drive we arrived at a giant huilding in the heart of the city and took, the elevator to the fourteenth lloor where we entered a door of an enormous show room. ln a corner there were a large screen and two small black hoxes. Jim turned a knola on one of these and asked whom I would like to check up on. We thought hard and finally ucame up withy' the names of the Senior Class of 718.

Forestviiie, Ohio May 17, 1948 Dear Mr. Vvright, Today the senior class of 1948 had their annuai reunion. We did a tot of reminiscing about our schoot days and We thought that maybe you would like to remember those years with us. We ati remembered that as we started to schooi, we were curious and yet doubtful about that new procedure in,our, tives. Vve marveled at the patience Miss Thompson and Miss Hovius must have hadiin trying to teach us to read and count. it was weii remembered that most of our second grade was spent in iearning to write. By the way, some ot us stiii canst write iegibiy enough for others to read it. But we can,t blame Miss Kaiserman and Miss Headley because they did their part. Thereis one thing we learned in the third grade that none of us has ever forgotten. That is the multiplication tables. By the time we had said! Ugoodbyen to Miss Laugh and Miss Brothers, we were starting to count the number of years untii We would be through with school. Vve began the study oi geography in the fourth grade. Miss Nobie and Niiss Harmon taught us a tot about the countries of the world. The fifth and sixth grades brought a great deal of change. Instead of two teachers we now had four. Our homework increased by leaps and bounds. Miss Powers and Miss McCord, fifth grade home room teachers, and hfirs. Besse Ayer and Mrs. Georgia Ayer, sixth grade home room teachers, had their share in giving the homeworic. One of our male classmates reminded us that the boys began wearing iong pants in the fifth grade which was a red-ietter day for them. Our seventh and eight grades were preparations for high school. Vvith the heip of hfiiss Murphy, Wir. Maddux, Nliss Addicott, and Mr. Smalley, we prepared for the eight grade state test. After our eight grade graduation, high school was the next step. We became fuii-Hedged freshmen after a stiff initiation. Right then we can remember how we started to pian a ubettern initiation for the uniucicy freshmen the next year. In the ninth and tenth grades we had stiii more teachers, new schedules. detentions, etc. Vve are indebted to Miss ixflartin, Mr. Myers, Mrs. Seaman, and Miss Graham for their advice and counsel during these years as our home room teachers. A We remembered ati the hard woric and ioads of fun we had in producing our Junior Ciass piay, HA Little Honeyf! With the help of Mrs. Struite and Mrs. Ziegler we said Ugoodbyeu to the seniors with a ioveiy banquet and dance. iwtany memories made up our senior year. Remember, Wir. Wright, how many times you had to taiit to us about our annual so that we,d put more work on it? That annual meant a tot to us once it was compieted. After our ciass play was over, Miss Nash and Mr. Brown turned our thoughts to a ciass day program and graduation. Our Aima Mater has come to mean more to us since our graduation and we shaii never forget her. Sincerely, The Senior Class of 1948 Page 18
