Twenty years ago I was a Senior in Central City High School. Now, as I sit in my office in the Great Southern Television Company Building I can recall how my class- mates looked when they received their diplomas. Strange that so .few years: can make such a difference in a group of peoples lives. But as my work took my attention I promptly forgot all about my classmates until I took; up the morning paper. A name caught my eye-a familiar name! A great aviatrix, Ina Neuhofel, was to attempt a flight to the planet :S'aturn. Miss Neuhofel had flown unaccompahied in a'rocket ship of her own invention to Mars. To see her off on the start of her lonely flight a reunion of all liv- ing members. of the original class of 1932 was planned by the Mayor of Central City, Guy Hudnalh I resolved to go at once to the old home town and see my former classmates again. x 6. i333 a 6 07311, train!
