The success of the students of 54 was clearly seen through out the banquet. Miss Briggs, the new Brenda Starr of the “New York Times ’ arrived early to get all the necessary data for her column. We find that Miss Mary Jane Sackett has become famous as she recently won the title “Miss America of 1964. Miss Mary Ann Joyce, and Professor of Mathematics at Vassar could not attend as she was not able to find anyone capable of taking her job during her absence. Mr. Tim Marsh, now famous traveler and explorer, was slated as speaker for the banquet. Mr. Marsh’s topic was “Marcia , his newly discovered continent which he has returned from exploring. To the disappointment of his old classmates. Dr. Ted Smith was called away on an emergency case and had to hurry away in his new Cadillac. As we look around the table we find many young seniors receiving advice from Miss Beverly Loucks who is now writing Dorothy Dix's Love Lorn Column. We find another famous classmate. Miss Mildred Miles exclaiming to Miss Betty Tanner how wonderful her recent book of poems is.Miss Miles is now a world-known poetessand artist and her latest painting is hanging in the Art Gallery of Gay Parii. Mr. Rogers Theetge, now a world famous race driver, is seen telling how he won the Le Mans sport car race in France with his new Jaguar. From the class of 54 there are many nationally know people.

The former Miss Patricia Reisman was unable to attend the banquet as she is on her honeymoon at the Riviera. Mr. James Mickle, who now owns a thousand acre farm, wasn’t able to attend the banquet. Mr. Mickle is in the middle of harvesting his new crop, a cross between a potato and a carrot to simplify stew making.

Miss Joyce is telling of all the pleasures of her new job as private secretary to Eddie Fisher. As the Banquet closed everyone expressed their enjoyment in being re-assembled and discussing their wonderful, unforgettable years in the halls of A.C.S.
