24 THE TOOT CLASS PROPHECY The New York State Fair Special is a- bout to leave. Shall we climb aboard? See the trim stewardess. Why it’s Lucy Maula! She fastens our safety belts and tells us one of our former classmates, who now is a Ma- rine, is to have the seat next to us. Here he comes. It couldn’t be David Debrucque, but it is. “It’s just like old home week” he ex- plains, “for I went to see Dick Clark, who now owns the Atomic Supply Factory”, Kath- erine Barres, his receptionist, told me he was having a lengthy meeting with his chief me- chanical engineer, Bill Caldwell; personnel director, Jimmy Spencer; and chief chemi- cal engineer, Harvey Stocker. I waited until the meeting was finished and Dick invited me to his home for dinner. Now I know why Dick has the right to claim Peggy is the best cook in the world.” As we leave the plane, saying goodbye to Dave, we are dazzled by a huge sign over the fair entrance saying “Mary Chadick, chief advertiser and C. P. A. Jerry Haines, accountant.” We see Jerry is still looking at figures. What’s that crowd looking at? Let’s go investigate it. There are Wesley Wilson and Earle Wilde with a group of students from the agriculture school. Everyone is waiting for the renowned veterinarian, Harry Turn- er, to make an address on his new toxin. He will also show pictures of a glass farm owned by the two Bargabos brothers, George and Bob. I’m hungry, how about you? Do you smell the aroma? It is coming from the Ro- bins Club owned by Rccco Loguidice and Jim- my Malvaso. The famous green satin drapes which made this restaurant well-known were designed by Lucille Furfaro. Lucy Spara greets us at the door and shows us to a table Why if it isn’t the famous Antone Aquino’s orchestra, with his two extra attractions: the singing of Rose Musacchio and the trum- pet playing of Bernard Burke! Look at the attractive Power’s model walking down the winding stairs. She is stop- ping by our table. It’s Roberta Wollaber. Her exquisite clothes came from the famous Vreeland-Miller Fifth Avenue Dress Shop designed by Mary Nastasi and Violet DeAn- gelis. She also tells us her alluring hair style was fashioned by the C. D. L. Company. (That is, Evelyn Cerio, Anna DeVito and Jo- sephine Lisi.) We have tickets for presentation of the Oscars. Mayor Richard Pexton starts the pro- gram with a welcoming address. The awards are being given out by New York’s ablest lawyer, Joe Cerio. His secretary, Eleanor Pat- terelli is showing the awards. Incidently, they are sponsored by Teresa Buttino’s store and Sam Tornatore’s farm. The Medical Social award is presented to Betsy Barott for her health project in the slum district in New York City. Admiral Robert Pexton receives the Navy Cross for bravery beyond the call of duty. The soil conservation medal is hon- ored to Thomas Randle for his erosion pro- gram passed by congress last year. This year a new award for all around good football player is given to Johnny Romagnoli. As we leave the stand we see Holly- wood’s newest debutante, Jean Burns, sitting next to the famous hair stylists, Lucy Sicilia and Barbara Smith. Let’s walk around awhile. There’s the Medical Arts Building. Do you see the dental room over to the right? As we enter, Char- lotte Kincaid, dental assistant, takes our name and address. Let’s look over her books. Why there’s Beverly Shuler and Dorothy Smith’s names. “Yes, they brought a group of children from High School to see the ex- hibit”, she tells us. “June Watson was here also with a group of kindergarten children. Among them was Beverly Robotham’s smil- ing little boy.” We can not neglect the hospital wards. There go Jean Dawley and Jane Randle, reg- istered nurses, into the operating room. Shall we follow them? As the doctor, Lucy DePasquale, enters the room all eyes are fo- cused on her. She has the task of performing a delicate operation on Beverly Loomis. Over the microphone we hear the voice of Amlita Grilli calling for Jenny Salamino. Bernice Stevens is in the office taking messages. Leaving the Medical Building we enter the Business Administration Building. Sam
