. --' f X .ff S 5 . at Xllv 61444 'MMM Honolulu, Hawaii August, 19644 What a wonderful day it was to start home from Hawaiil'As we were taking our last look around Honolulu, much to our surprise, we saw Gladys Foltz and Dorothy Loy walking toward us. We were all overjoyed at seeing each other, since we were parted for so long. In High School, we always stuck together, especially Dorothy and Shirley. We had a little time to spare, so we took them along with us to our cabin. They told us of their many experiences in the Air Force and as an Army Nurse. After five tiring days on the ship, we finally docked at San Francisco. We were getting hungry, so we went to Hackney's. Who should greet us, but Donna Lee Swartz and Janet Lehman. After a delicious supper, Janet and Donna Lee bid us farewell and success on our trip back home. As we were driving through Wyoming, the weather was hot and sultry, and boy were we wishing for something to drink. At last we saw a huge sign that read Zeigler,s Creamery and Dairy Bar. We got a milkshake and asked to see the manager, because we thought it was surely Richard Zeigler. Dick was really surprised to see us. He took us to their home, where we met his wife, the former Nancy Meals. She always wanted to move from Newville. Dick certainly took her far enough away. Dick told us to stop in to see .lack Rolar, who owned a large dairy farm, about two miles from Cheyenne. ,lack showed us around his huge farm and had dinner and were on our way again. As we were passing through Denver, Colorado, we passed Swanger's Plane Constructionf' We stopped in to see William Swanger. His two main secretaries, Blanche Mixell and Addessa Kough took us to Bill's office. He took us for a ride in one of his large planes. What a thrilling ride! As we landed, we saw Wayne Hockensmith in a control tower operating his new type of radio, the XXX43. A few days later, we arrived in Chicago. Everyone told us to go to see the livestock yards. While we were looking around, we saw Bob Cooke showing some important men his stock. We talked to Bob awhile and as we were ready to leave, we saw a dirty old man crawling out of a truck. Much to our surprise, it was Bill Wiewall. , l'i'X P- E 'I x xx' en- -m,.- -

G9 .f Q-at B 5-L f' f SQ Before going on, we thought we would like to shop awhile. Shirley decided to buy a dress. Someone asked us if they could help us. We turned around and there stood Dorine Clugston. We were really surprised. She told us that Louise Rickabaugh was a seamstress there, so we talked a few minutes with her. As we were leaving the store, Cleo Hockenberry was going in. She didn't recognize us at first, but when she did, you should have seen her face light up. She was there visiting some relatives. We saw a telephone building across the street. Ruth Strausser and Doris Kough were just coming off duty. We chatted with them a few minutes about our old school experiences. Our car would have to give us trouble. We stopped at the nearest garage and there Bob Webber was repairing Stanley Graham's new diesel truck. From past correspondence, we knew that Joyce Chronister was working at the Pittsburgh Hospital. While passing through Pitts- burgh, we would have to stop to see her. Ten years have elapsed and now Joyce is an R.N. It was just our luck, for Joyce was just coming off duty. And who should be with her but Vonny Gutshall, who is a medical secretary there. We talked about old times. Our school dances and our Junior-Senior Banquets came to our minds. And how we cheered our basketball'teams to victory. Our trip wouldn't be complete, without visiting the new Big Spring School. The Principal showed us around and he told us that there were many of our classmates teaching there. Of course, he gave us a few minutes to talk with each of them. We went to the biology lab. Dorothy Wiegel was trying to explain the parts of a flower. Since Shirley liked art so well in High, we ventured to the art room. Mary Myers was in front of the class illustrating art. Next door Louella Barrick was teaching her students, Pennsylvania History. Two more of our classmates were teaching in the elementary school, Nancy Myers and Mary Ickes. 'IH I ' ll Illlllll . .t
