Hlzaaphecy, 1953 One day in the summer of 1970, I, Sandra Smith, was sitting in my rocking chair on the front porch. of my secluded' dude ranch, when who should I see coming down the road but my old chum since school days, Barbara Stewart. She had made her fortune as a career woman and had now come back to visit her old home town and to attend the lectures given by the world famous philosopher Marc Anderson on Why a Dog Has Fleas . Traveling with Marc is his press agent and old classmate Melvin Nygaard. ' She joined me on the porch and we began exchanging gossip. On her way over she ran into Senator Scott Maitland and his secretary, Phyllis Gentry. Scott is promot- ing a vigorous campaign to change the national flag from Stars and Stripes to Scotch Plaid. We chuckled as we recalled by gone memories of our old fued back in '53 on the Scotch Plaid theme. Do you know what happened to some of our other classmates Z asked Barbara. Guess what , I explained, jerry Harris married a school teacher yesterday, it seems to run in the family. Speaking of being married what happened to Dauna Field and Ladora Rhea? Barbara asked. I then replied, They are neighbors, still living here in Burns. just then a black convertible came to a screeching stop. We immediately recog- nized the occupants of this sleek vehicle as Carl Wilke, Jack Miller, and Eugene Francis. We soon learned that they were co-owners' of a burlesque theater in Prine- ville. The star of their show was Evelyn Laughlin now known as Lula Belle Laughlin. They did not stay long as they had to meet Karl Jacobs the proud owner of the Hurdy-Gurdy Girdle Factbryf' While sauntering back to the porch Barbara asked me what happened to Billie Rae Ap-pling. I told her that she was an old maid, but still looking for her ideal. Barbara's interest in this bit of news stimulated our love for the latest gossip
