Senior Prophecy featuring Jean Terry, vocalist. Donna whispers to Mrs. Lambert to notice W illiam Sloat and Thcron Rogers who are members of the nation’s favorite orchestra. The hostesses also explain that Postmaster Jack Knouse and Attorney-General James Fuller are present. Catherine tells them that most of the class is present except Edwin Morse, Paul and Roger Maslin, George Merrill, and Edwin Munn, who are successful farmers and must retire early. All eyes turn to the jitterbugging couple on the dance floor. “That’s Betty Decker and Lewis Taladay dancing, I believe. Betty runs a dancing school in New York,” Mrs. Lambert explains to her husband. Looking around they recognize nurses Louise Hinkson, Jeannette Raulerson, Lucretia Hyde, Evalyn Ellis and Emogcnc Johnston conversing in a corner with Andrew Crowley, proprietor of Crowley’s Drug Store, and Dr. Albert Webster. In another group, laughing, joking and discussing business together are Anne Carr, beauty specialist, Frances Chilson, hair stylist, and Alice Raupers and Seretta Corl, famous illustrators. Several ex-service men—Clyde Arnold, Gordon Bidlack, Donald DeWitt, William Daniels, Alton Fisk and Kenneth Knapp—come hurrying in. They are once again enjoying themselves. They rush towards Patricia Lenox and Phyllis Munn, society debs, who are carried away by the jovial mob. The whole club is dominated by our class of ’42. Seats are few. The Governor and his wife sit down beside Adrian Hazard, the great dramatic actor, and Doris Payne, co-starring with Mr. Hazard in their latest hit, “Gone Writh Our Money” or “But We Won.” They are discussing the picture with Paul Harris, now graduated from college and who is working as a partner at Kolb’s Funeral Home. With this joyous atmosphere let us leave our group to enjoy their old companionships and the renewal of former adventures and sorrows, which we are sure they are bound to discuss. ♦ 23 )
