CHARLES CLEM has at last accomplished his highest hope - a monopoly on all window cleaning in Buchanan. DON and JOHN COLEMAN recently received national fame for their Home for Xvilted Pe- tunias. JIM MARTIN has moved to the South so he can make a permanent study of those charming south- ern belles. WANDA NADRATOWSKI is still looking under her bed every night - in hopes.

She is now playing in the U. S. Navy Band. SMITTY is the new phys. ed. teacher at St. Mary's. No one recognizes CLIFFORD GOOD since he has gone bald. With JIM MOTTL and EUGENE TAUBE in charge of all daytime serials on Buchanan's new station, our Hooper rating should go up. HAMIE, CHUCK AILSWORTH, and NENV- LAND SCHWARTZ are Dewey's new campaign managers. They're still trying. Since her recent success in house parties, BOBBIE REED has decided to go into hotel business. KENNY HEEZEN, one of the nation's leading lawyers, is now the lawyer for the Kiddies Komfy Klothing firm of which BILL FAIRMAN is the president. JANETTE HAWKINS is driving the bus for Bu- chanan to Baroda. DON MATTHEWS's evenings are still taken up with the study of English II. WAIVA LENOX and WANITA OTT have run Saks Fifth Avenue out of business with their new dress shop. BARBARA DOKEY is doing well in her profession as a lady wrestler. If JAN ICE RIZOR loses another pound, she'll lose her job as fat lady for Ringling Brothers Circus. ROGER WISSLER has replaced Charles Atlas. I'd sure hate to have all the problems of the world on my hands! , JERRY MORRIS will make some girl a good hus- band! Just think -he can already cook! DALE WVILLIAMS is still singing Call me up Some Rainy Afternoon. Maybe if DORIS BAT- TEN would quit sleeping on company time and make the connection, poor Dale could talk to his girl. JACK BISCHOFF and BOB BOWLING are man- agers of Gambles and Spragues. JOANNE MAYHEVV is married and raising little rabbits! MARGUERITE SCAMEHEORN and CAROL KNAPP have been banned at better schools because of their rowdiness. CHARLES ROUGH has taken over his dad's farm and hired ART SAMSON and JERRY KOENIGS- HOF as cider testers.
