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

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

Va led ictowa u BUILDING 11oR TOMORROW Twelve years of work have been completed. The foundation is laid. Yes, the foun- dation for life has been shaped, hardened, and ready for us to start building the per- manent structure. These twelve years with the fun, hardships, and work have each acted as a nail driven in to hold the foundation secure and fast. The teachers and parents have acted as contractors showing us where each nail should be driven so as to do the most good and make the securest hold. Now it is up to us to choose the materials with which we shall continue to build. Our personality and character go to make up this material. We have had training to de- velop these two assets to the greatest degree, but it will be proved later in life whether these have been developed to a degree to withstand the many trials which we shall meet. One weak section can cause much destruction and the downfall of all good that has been built up. Through the persistence and genius of man, structures have been built which tower high in the sky, proving their worth to man in the form of oiiice space, homes and recreation centers. Is it possible for us to use these as examples for our lives? With our standards set high, can't we make our lives grow to a degree which will prove a worth in this world? There are many phases in this building process. Some of this class will go on to acquire more training in specialized work. Others will start the building and the erecting of the framework. All these talents together in life will complete the product, the ac- complishments of tomorrow. We the class of '49 are ready to go into the world and finish our building. We have had the training showing us how to plan the structure. It is for us to show what we can produce from this. Will it be a meager dwelling full of disappointments and dis- illusionments or will it be a castle in the air? We are full of confidence and hope. The building process may be long and tedious but with a solid foundation and strong, durable materials, we are all looking forward to the finished product-achievement, success, and happiness. Through wisdom is a house builded, and by understanding it's established. Proverb: 24-3 -JEAN ANSTETT Page Twenty two
