Charlie and Bobby are still going to Belfast as in the days of oldg They're trying very hard to find Their hidden talents, I'm told. Carolyn recently became a bride And is still all aglow. Elizabeth has done a fine job since She became an R. N. long ago. Mary Huntley makes a swell teacher At dear old Camden High. Louie is still in the Air Forceg How he loves to fly! Sandra of the sunlamp fame Is now Mrs. Dyer Connell. Betty Jane is a celebrated opera star And is doing very, very well. Carol Brown is another married galg Her husband is in the Merchant Marine. Walter is the strong man at the Union Fairy He's the best I've ever seen. Barbara has just completed a book, Its title: How to Flirt With a Man. David P. and Karen have five kidsg He's living according to his plan! Stuart and Connie are Mr. and Mrs., Which doesn't surprise us at all. A very active church worker Is fine singer, Thelma Small. Judy Payson and Ruth Young are singing On their own show on TV. Billy Chalmers has become a pianist And is big competition for Liberace. The courteous ways of Julia and Joel Many of us did desireg Both of them are very successful And leading lives that we admire. Richard Brown shrank to five feet two, The result of a newly invented pill. Janice still doesn't weigh 100 pounds, But she says, Just wait, I will! Gordon is a hermit, living in the Northg He says this life for him is ideal. Phyllis has lived in many places. To her, traveling does appeal. Joyce R. and Betty R. are happy girlsg Both have already said, I do. The best telephone operator in these parts Is the ever popular Betty Boo, The state's championship basketball team ls coached by our former star, Jim Dean. Jane Hart is still residing in Hope But is better known as Mrs. Herbert Bean. Lorraine is a lady professor at Harvardg She always was so very bright. Donis is enjoying his life's ambition: Plenty of money and moonlight! THE MEGUNTICOOK 7 Dave Hart a successful farmer is: To him, much-deserved happiness has come. Helen Stearns gained much renown, When she invented a nylon drum. Mary Richardson was a secretary Until for a Brewer boy she fellg I hear she's still quite mischievous, But as a wife and mother does excel. As for me, I've traveled over the United States many and many a time, But people as nice as my high school Classmates are mighty few, I find. Once a year we get together And how the words do fly, As we talk about our happy Memories and days at Camden High. In my various wanderings, I've Met many people who are great, But when compared to my classmates, Somehow they just don't rate. So if you want your class To really be on the ball, Just follow in the footsteps of Our class-the best one of them all!

C. Our bus driver for the trip was Frank Conant, and he soon became a good friend to all of us. Even though most of us hadn't slept much the night be- fore, we sang practically all of the way. We reached New York City at 6:00 P.M. and drove through Harlem, which greatly fascinated us. We final- ly reached our destination, the Hotel Chesterfield, at 7 :30. After supper many of us went to the top of the R.C.A. Building or to the top of the Empire State Building. The beautiful panorama of the miles of colored lights that we saw from those build- ings will long remain in our minds. Many of us had never seen anything THE MEGUNTICOOK 9 like it before. We attempted to sleep that night, but no one was able to for more than four hours. Sunday morning many of us had planned to attend church at St. Pat- rick's Cathedral, but no one got up in time to go. We had an early breakfast and left New York for Washington at 7:30, stopping in Philadelphia. We visited Independence Hall and saw the Liberty Bell. Also I might add, Sandra finally got to see Dyer for two or three minutes! The next stop was at Valley Forge, where we toured the headquarters of George Washington. We arrived in Washington at the Ho- tel Burlington about 5:30. After get- ting unpacked and settled, we ate sup- 'per at the Dee Cee Diner which was to be our hangout , so to speak, while in Washington. That evening we toured the Archives Building, where we saw many important docu- ments, including the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Then we visited the National Gallery of Art. We next visited the lighted Lincoln and J efferson Memorials. Monday morning we had a guided tour through the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, where 10 billion dol- lars' worth of paper money is made each day. It broke our hearts to see them burning up the old bills. Why couldn't they donate a little to us? While we were waiting for this tour to begin, we had a singing bee with a school from the South. Just as we started on our tour, however, they gave a big cheer for Maine! At 8:45 we visited the Washington Monu- ment. Most of us went up in the ele- vator, but some of the more ambitious students climbed up. At 9:25 we left for the Smithsonian Institute, where we tried to see all we could before 1:00. We were very interested in the Museum of Natural History and the Army Medical Museum. We ate at the Government Cafeteria that noon. Af- ter dinner we left by bus for Arling- ton National Cemetery. We got there in time to see nearly the whole cere- mony of the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We visited the huge amphitheatre
