Page Twenty lLLCQer9 In l5Q On the eve of graduation from A. H. S. the ,49ers made a solemn vow to be present, if it were at all possible, at a class reunion in 1959. On June 1, 1959, engraved reminders arrived stating that the reunion would be held at the summer resort owned and operated by Lou Phillips and Marion Jensen at dear old Lake James. Marilyn Kling and I had just completed a term in our school, Shorthand in Ten Easy Lessons, when our reminders arrived. After hurriedly packing, we dashed to the airport. Much to our surprise we ran into Bob Sewell, who offered to let us fly to Angola with him in his private plane. Bob, we discovered, is the manager of the world's largest air-line and Mary Miller is one of his competent hostesses. Arriving in Angola, we were greeted by Willis Fisher and Bob Heingartner, who are now members of the Indiana State Police Force. They were waiting to escort Bev Robbins, our new governor, to the resort. In Angola we noticed a new Gift Shoppe, proprietors, Martha Renner and Phyllis Ryan. Delivery service is by Robert Servis. We found that many of our former classmates had entered the business world. Wilbur Fisher, florist in South America specializing in rare and gigantic orchids, was flown home by the famous jet pilot, Dewey Nodine. Mort and Martha told us that they were previewing Fred Romero's latest film- length cartoon in their theatre in Niiami. Fred, we understand, is the Disney of 'S9. Mary Ellen informed us that she is operating the largest chicken ranch in Oregon and that her new book, The Chick and I, is to be published soon. Dick Andrew, a prosperous dairyman in Wisconsin, is sponsoring a new television serial starring the brilliant comedian, Hugh Babcock. The script writer is Pat Harman. I wonder whether Pat is still using back issues of the Hornet. Jean Anstett is secretary and financial advisor of this firm. Jeanne Anne Webb' answered our inquiries with the information that she is Lady Dean at Culver, instigating longer vacations and more of them! We hailed Kathleen Wise, the noted shoe designer and co-owner of the Wise-Jones Shoe Store Chain. Seeing Paula Albright and Marilyn Harman sitting on the terrace, we went over to congratulate Paula. Her Aunt Paula's jams and jellies had won first prize at the

laoem In l5Q State Fair. Marilyn wasg holding a Siamese cat in her lap, evidently brought with her from her cat farm. Phyllis Ashley was enthusiastically discussing an item to appear in her lovelorn column in the local paper. Several of our classmates have taken the final plunge in ceremonies performed by Owen Amstutz. Lois Sams, Gloria Sewell, and Gloria LaVine are living in New York, California, and Texas respectively. Two of our '49ers are included in the new A. H. S. teaching staff. Orville Moody is instructing in civics, and Jerry VanWagner is the coach of Angola's football team, which by the way, had been undefeated last season. We noticed a crowd at the waterfront, and upon investigating, we found Marilyn Rahrer giving instructions for water skiing. She is employed as ski-instructor at Sun Valley where John Goodhew specializes in making skis. Joe Douglass, Sue, and Don Moor came across the lake in a launch from Joe's Boat Livery. Don had been telling them all about his factory which manufactures cor- duroy sailor-suits. QMy - do you remember Don's senior cords?j We heard the buzz of a motor and glancing skyward we saw a plane circling to land. Cough! Sputter! Well! It was none other than Herb Sanders Qwe should have guessedj of the Sanders Model Agency, with Phyllis Smurr, his secretary, Donna Sutton, art agent, and Mary Ann Williamson, who models furs furnished by the distinguished trapper, Jack Harman of Angola - Africa, that is. After an hour spent in conversation, dinner was served on the lantern-lighted ter- race. Dinner music by Ray Scott's Orchestra featured Bump', Eggleston, Master of the Drum, and Willa Ritter as vocalist. Although some of this prophecy is highly improbable, one point of it is authentic. The Class of '49 has vowed to have a class reunion in 1959 and then we shall see how nearly this prophecy came true. -DOROTHY MAGLEY MARILYN KLING MARILYN HARMAN MARILYN RAHRER Page Twenty one
