.Backing vqfzead We, the class of '51, are having a reunion at Mac's home in Washington, D. C., in the year 1961. By the way, Mae is the head of a new department in the govern- ment, the United States Department of High School Sponsors. All of the class of 'Sl campaigned for him. Our universally known photographers, Corky Demorest and Keith Shiley, took pictures during his whole campaign. David Handy, the world's best public speaker and writer, wrote all of his speeches and gave the speech before the United States President which convinced him that Mac should get the job. We are all proud of him. All of the members have arrived and we shall visit with them. Over by the fire place, roasting weiners are our famous teachers. Hi, Dottie! How are you? 'Tm fine. Did you know that Evangelene was appointed the head of all grade teachers in Indiana and that I was appointed the head of the department of high school journalism in Indiana. Well, congratulationslv Over here is our circle of secretaries. They all took dictation for Dave as he thought up the campaign speeches. They are busy serving all of the people. Among them are Dorothy Deming, who is now the highest paid secretary in the United States for she had three years, experience in high school, Anna Lou, who is private secretary to Don Huff, chief accountant of the United States, and Martha Rose, secretary to the owner of the largest turkey farm in the state of Indiana. Martha is also secretary to our biggest business man, Larry Geren, who owns a large string of Paradise Cafes. As We walk around, we see that Norma Coffman and Carma Carpenter are the best known team of portrait painters of our time. They have painted a picture called Our Sponsor , which is known all over the world. Our largest group is getting ready for the program. They are the nurses. They all went along on Mac's campaign because so many people mobbed him for his auto- graph that many were hurt. The nurses are: Wilma Keller, who is on the staff at the famous Mayo clinic at Rochester, Minnesota, Irene Nelson, who finally got her wish and is now head nurse at the University Hospital at the University of Michigan, Paula Randolph, famous for her research on asthmag Jerrie Shank, who turned down twenty-seven marriage proposals for the sake of a career, Marilynn Weiss, head nurse at Ball Memorial Hospital at Ball State College, and Mary Ann Goss who is head nurse at Angola's new S00 bed hospital. Helping the nurses is Marjorie Smith, famous for her short poems and her penny collection. We find our medical secretary, Bev Miller, and our medical laboratory technician, Ramona Smurr, mixing punch. Bev is the secretary to the surgeon general of the United States. Page Twenty four

Dorothy Dove, best known telephone operator, is serving the pickles. Helping Ramona and Bev stir the punch are Mary Ann Moore and Carol Rode- baugh, they decorate all the houses and design all the clothes at MGM and RKO studios for movies. Over behind the curtains, just before our program we find Philip Newnam trying to explain the Einstein Theory to Veryl Carpenter, Mr. Baseball, Charles Humphries, Mr. Basketball, Max Schaeffer, our famous dentist, Don Taylor, best known con- struction man in the world, Bruce Warren, manager of the Walgreen Drugstore chain, and Carlton Waite, the most famous carpenter in the United States. They were a great help on Mac's campaign. First on our program we have Clarence Bal and Steve Sanders, demonstrating their farming techniques. It seems that they have developed a tomato as large as a basketball and now need to develop the tomato plant so that it will be strong enough to hold up. Next we have a skating exhibition by Adele Johnson now known as the Sonja Henie of the Wheels. Third on our program we have a demonstration on beauty by Marilyn Renner, whom we all go to for our hairdos. It seems Marilyn keeps all of her customers in stitches and she has more customers than any other beauty operator in the world. She kept us all looking nice during Mac's campaign. After Marilyn's demonstration we have movies on Jack McNett's experiences as a daredevil driver. He has Won national fame. For another quick change we now have Sue Jackson, the Roy Rogers of the fair sex, on her golden palomino. She is in the movies and is known all over the United States. Next we have John Caris, the world,s famous magician. His tricks are fool-proof. No one can figure them out. Last but not least we have our class band. It is very famous and helped tre- mendously in the campaign. They have a new song called, Mac, Our Mac . The band consists of George Gecowets, drums, David Kaye and Don Taylor, clarinets, Dick Meek and Keith Shiley, baritones, Marilynn Weiss, flute, Don Huff, trombone, and Charles Humphries, bass horn. Marilynn Weiss also does vocal work with the organi- zation. We have all had a wonderful time and we will be looking forward to another reunion which will be held in 1971. We all wish Mac luck on his new job and we'll be backing him up all the way. --IRENE NELSON BEVERLY MILLER ANNA LOU MATHEWS 'Page Twenty ve
