WE MEET IN '68 Time: April 28, 1968 Place: The Stork Club e As'I enter I hear a beautiful voice. I glance up and to my amazement I see Mrs. Eva Lynn Tryon Kapoofnick, wife of the great oil tycoon, sing- ing the old favorite of-'H8 WToo Fat Polkan. As I find my table I notice that the place has recently been rede- corated. I recognize the unmistakable Hendrickson touch in the beauti- ful murals, just as the artist himself appears at my side. I express my admiration for Bob's work and we have a hearty laugh over the way he has risen above his early ambitions to become a plasterer. As Bob and I sit and discuss old times, who should come in but Mr. and Mrs. Arlen McDonald taking their first vacation. They tell me they left the twins Jerry and Harry, to take care of the farm and their daughter Priscilla to cook for them. It is a big relief to the Mac's to get away from the 500 acre farm after being tied down for so long. The McDonalds brought tales of our old alma mater. what happened to the dear faculty? Well, it seems that Mr. Watkins finally got his dream of a new building. We combined forces with Pimento and Riley and built a beautiful new school. Hr. Watkins just retired this year. They say he still knows his current events. Remeber those heated class discussions we had in social studies? Our dear sponsor, Mrs. Enders,had a beautiful library with twenty- thousand volumes. She left Blackhawk five years ago to become head librarian at the Library of Congress. As a hobby she and her husband design houses with overhanging, unsupported upstairs. l s. Davidson still has that memorable cafeterla, only it's so large one needs a guide in order to get around. They say they still celebrate that nauseating first day of school--remember? H . Kruzan gave up his coaching Job to Don Swigart. Hr. Kruzan now has science classes that look forward to dissecting frogs, earth worms and what have you. His chemistry classes created a chemical that did away with all the windows on one side of the building. That let in some breeze, I imagine. ' . All t h thin but mathematics' he has one prize class that giderstagdsethosg go! Z gffairs. Barbara,Baker and Martha Mc- Laughlin are his helpers. Ray Little took over the industrial arts and gets along very nicely. Mrs. Russell retired from teaching and now spends her time paintiD8 portraits. She has a huge business--just finished the President s por- trait. It seems Barbara Crable took over the art department and has herself quite a job. Hrs, Clark gave up teaching and went to Hollywood. Out there she is a talent scout for production of her own stage and radio shows. Remember that radio show she had in 'N8? It seems Betty Richey is still her largest box office attraction. , ti d f om teaching and keeps herself busy as cgghigisofH:Egugu:t:grkrgupei Market.
