6 THE MEGUNTICOOK Clara Tremblay has a dress shop In New York on Fifth Avenue, She's one of the best, and climbing. Making plenty of revenue. 'Myrt Marshall owns a Coke Bar, She sells most every kind, And if you care to stop, A classmate there you'll find. Viola Brownell and Verna Norwood Got married in '48, Viola married a captain, Verna the captain's mate Louise Wade owns a hat shop She flatters the ladies who buy, That hat was made for you, she says, She makes the .ladies sigh. To those who couldn't graduate, And in the service entered, We gratefully acknowledge now, And on them our thoughts are centered. Since that completes my little tale, And before I make it worse, I think it best that here and now I end this little verse.

My X and Y's in algebra Will come in use some day, When I want to find out What I should have to pay. I studied and studied my Latin, 'Till I had learned by heart The declensions and conjugations, At last I mastered the art. My second year I took up Spanish, Learned how to make conversations, The next year was somewhat harder, But I struggled through translations. The studies of Caesar and Charlemagne, In my World History Class, Made time consuming homework For those who wished to pass. Economics, French and English, These I studied like mad , But now I'm leaving C. H. S., I really feel quite sad. M. Marjorie Plaisted, '45 - C' H s - FOUR YEARS When I entered Camden High As a freshman and very shyg In my class there were only two, Whom I had seen before and knew. Next I became a sophomore and went up to the second floor. There my seat was in direct line with the office door, And Mr. Wood Could see when I was or wasn't good. In my junior year I didn't shirk, To get an A, I had to work! I worried and worried every day, The senior year seemed so far away. Now these four years are nearly over, And I hate to say Good-Bye, But the time has come, and I must go, Farewell to Camden High. Ruth Thurlow, '45

1 Iv! sl CLASS OF 45 Ten years have passed-it's '55, Gee, how the time does fly. It seems to me like yesterday That we left old Camden High. I'm now a country doctor, Keeping folks alive, But often I've wondered what became Of the Class of '45. This question seemed to bother me, fI'm the curious kindj, So I made an investigation And this is what I find: Why, just the other day, it was, 1 ran into Susie St. Clair, She's now running a beauty shop Getting into everyone's hair. Marjorie Plaisted and Pat Magee, The scholars of our class, Just graduated from college And have settled down at last. Tim tried to get in the Marines, As most of you all know, But since he c0uldn't make it, Pat told him where to go. Lawrence Buck and Georgie Ayers Are running a fish market, But from all reports I hear, It really is a racket. Justina Shute is in the movies, Having a lot of fung Her last picture was Reverie, Opposite Robert Young. Betty Leach, as you all know, Despite how great her fame is, Gave it up and went to work Raising little Ames's. Ray Allen owns a laundry, All kinds of clothes he bleaches, In Rockland you will find his store Because he married Peaches, SLNIIJR SEIITIUN Basil Bryant and Elmer Leonard, The romeos of our class, Have a partnership known as, Lessons in Love, Teaching technique to every lass. Arthur Grinnell is making money Leading his own orchestra, His soloist is Gilbert Marriner, A second Frank Sinatra. Now, there's the case of Ruth Thurlow, Whom we tho't the quietest to be, She's now known as Aunt Ruthie, Each Saturday broadcasts recipes. Of famous people in our class Betty Amborn takes the cake, She's now a dietitian, Works hard from early 'till late. Remember Barbara Clancy? She works for John L. Powers, At modeling she's reached the top, She models at all hours. Bob Richards is in Hollywood, A movie star or such, Makes a million bucks a year! He doesn't worry much. Barbara Dickey is married now, She has a little son, He really is her pride and joy, His name is Junior Eaton. The big surprise of our class, I find, Turned out to be Joe Sawyer, Instead of being an engineer, He's now a famous lawyer. Now Glee and Evelyn Libby Have taken to the air, As stewardesses they're doing fine, The pilots are their only care. Leona and Phyllis Baird After graduation married soon, It seems they married brothers, And their Anniversary falls in June.
