Some of these youthful pioneers were accompanied to the port of Miss Nell Ryan's room by doting mothers. Some few, like George Campbell, strolled up the gang plank alone. However that may be, we were off with no land in sight. Succeeding years saw us put in with Miss Larsen, Miss Miller, Miss Mc- Cormack, and Mrs. Huddelson. At the latter harbor our goodly crew was augmented by no less a charming personality than Lydia Newell. T11 F7717-,T i - sw 1,05 0 2 -Y -45's E-t1'1vN4::f'1Cr sc:-fx Twenty

.24 A 1151 li f - ,A Z , 'rl-IE g 'TATTLER Following this came Model University Opensf' The university president, Mary Hitchman, was shown with the faculty: Gladys Hansen, Margaret Maher, Gertrude Mackin and Ruth Robinsong and the university librarians: Dorothy McMillan, Mary Mullin, and Hazel Anderson. The last news feature was Championship Fight Tonight, and I observed that the title contenders were Walter Gollehon and Bill Wentworth. Also shown were their managers, Peter Iacobson and Bill Sylvis. - Next came a short comedy, featuring Alvin Brumbaugh, Marshall Burger, and Charles Love. The main show, School Days. followed, starring Roy Christensen, Ruth Farnham, Florence Curtis, and Waldon George. I had seen these former Blair High students in the movies quite often in my city. This concluded the performance. Upon leaving the theater I met Beulah Putnam and Marian Rosenbaum, who were now writing poetry. Immediately behind them were the members of the Farm Women's Club: Luella Anderson, Wilhelmina Knofler, Marie Bar- ron, Dorothy Petersen, Irene Larsen, and Irene DeVinney. It seemed like old times to see so many familiar faces. After visiting with them, I went to a. nearby restaurant. I found it was being run by Helena and Agnes Simonsen. Among the waitresses I noticed Mildred Hansen, Inabelle Stricklett, Florence Ander- sen, and Mildred Iverson. I began to believe every 1932 Senior must be in town this evening, for upon looking around I saw Frandsine Ericksen, Nadene Pearce, Evelyn Wilkins and Helen Vindersley at a table. Seated at another table were Helen Gallagher and Edna Tucker, who were just home after teaching in outstate high schools. After leaving the restaurant I looked a- cross the street. A huge sign flashed V. Sc W. Hat Shopf, A limousine rolled up and Leota Van Duesen and Mae Wentworth, the owners, got out and walked in. I was rather dazed by the rabid events of the night. Everywhere I looked I saw my old classmates. All were successful, not one had been a failure. Then I thanked mv lucky stars that I had been so fortunate as to be able to go to school with them, and enjoy their friendship and success through life. 1109- IWW-5-2 ,,- Nit

Here, too, we met our first man teacher-that ever staunch mentor and helpmate Mr. White. Under his guidance, arithmetic hecame real and vital. As ninth graders, Mr. Parks and his algehra became our daily topic of conversation. Some few fell overhoard as we passed the reefs of Latin. But, taking it all in all, our May picnic was ta grand finale of a successful voyage. The next year saw more casualities in the maclstrom of geometry. But those who survived the storms and hurricanes have come sailing in to the port of Iuniors with Miss Hutchinson at the helm and Mr. Flack at the engine room.
