I» Anna Petr, leave my pleasantness to Fred Bitz. I, Vlasta Pleninger, leave my calls to the office from that handsome sailor to anyone who has not had the experience. I» Jeanine Ophus, leave my ability to skip a grade, to Michael Gibbons. I» Steve O'malley, leave my foolish pranks to Bill Allderdice in hopes that he will carry on in the O'Malley tradition. I, Harold Sherbeck, leave my willingness and ability to get along with girls to Jim Sanford, hoping he will not have to drive to Turner to find the luck I did. After ten rears, we meet in the halls of Big Sandy High School, but it is not the old school we attended but the new up-to-date school that was being planned when we left. Going up to the office we see Mr Hood and his grown daughter, Marilyn, doing the office work. There is another girl there b t none of us recognize her. Of course, we must see Mr. Schwartz and upon going to the gym we see him trying to teach Richard and Bob to bo the athlete he was. Harold Sherbeck now pitching for the Hew York Yankees. Next to Babe Ruth heis known as the worlds mostfamous retired pitcher. Lucy Sscora made her debut to society immediately after graduation by becoming a soda jerk. She is'still Jerking, but not sodas. „ Today we received a telegram from Anna Petr. I quote. After ten years of single happiness,Lindy has finally hooked me and it is now wedded bliss Vlasta Plenninger is singing Anchors Aweigh as a lulla- by to her little waves and gobs. Jack Dyer having successfully completed, after 10 years, his supposedly four year education of forestry and ranger duties and is now stationed in the foothills of the Bear Paw Mountains.
