The CHARHIAN Senior Reunion of 1964 We are here this afternoon to bring you our annual coast to coast broadcast from the forty-third story of modernized Hotel Carnet in the heart of the great metropolis of Charlotte, Michigan. The structure for this taautiful building was origi- nated by none other than the noteworthy Maxon Pai i. Whim. He is a graduate of the Columbia University and has his B.S.. A.B.. Ph.D.. and B.U.D. degrees from the University of Southern California. Your anouncer. Robert Andrew Betty, Jk.. will broadcast today through the facilities of station O.K.K.. which was dedicated by the famous radio technician from New York City. Mr. Robert Ei.win Okk. The personalities that will appear on this program today are the 1911 graduates of the nationally known Charlotte High School which is famous for its Brain Busters”, otherwise known as the Intellectual Idiots . The crowd is beginning to arrive and we see Mary Eixkx Baker and Amy A. Chapman, the popular Ballet Dancers of the Club 13 in Chicago. Illinois They will do their fumous Ballet Boogie Woogie for the benetit of those with television sets and for those with the rather out-of-date radio sets Siiiki-ky Lorn a Walker. Ii.a Maxine Halsey. and Jim Marie Siii maker, the notable Tune Teasers of Texas will sing their own arrangement of Beat Me Daddy 8 to the Bar . Following close behind is the admirable Richard Mi kray Sleater. bund leader and Street Corner Symphony” direc- tor for the Sauerkraut Bros.. Inc. Edna Marik Robins is the dynamic candidate for the Socialist ticket in the coming full election for the presidency. She is known for her marvelous ability in debat- ing and oration», and will deliver u speech on The Socialist Ideas for Bringing Up Children. Who do we have coming here? Well, if it isn't Patsy Lot Lewis und Josephine Ji nk Mayhem. the owners of the nationally known Ice Cream P stablishment in the Anarctic. They report that the Eskimos seem to favor the sensational Shove It or Leave It sundae to their regular confection of Blubber . Hold it everybody!! Here comes Wayne Elton Steward, the state agricultural agent and perfector of Steward’s Stimulant for Sad Sows.” As you all know Mr. Steward was the world’s champion hog raiser whose prize-winning Syrian hogs have taken every prize but the door prize at the World’s Fair for years. Oh. oh. that world-famous fortune teller of the future. Dorothy Joyce Fcrc. Just dashed in to an- nounce that in the yeur of 1980. the United States will Is overrun with crickets. Edward Van Blip.an Dt xxixg. well known critic of stage and screen, seems rather doubtful of this prophecy. Just stepping out of the elevator, which by the way Is very efficiently operated by none other than Harry Henry Ci rran. that gruduale of the Paducah Schools of Nursing, we sen Aili.ken Grace Yoi no. Barbara Jean Ball and Donna Jean Hai.i., origi- nators of the exclusive model shops under the trade name of Yorxc, Ball and Hall Inc., locat- ed in Rio De Janeiro. Brazil. We understand that Neii. Harvey Cochrane and Wayne Stanley Haigii will lie here later today If conditions are favorable. They are flying all the way from Sierra I eone. Africa, in their originally designed helicopter. By the way. today is the tenth wedding annivers- ary of Mr. and Mrs. Nyi.e Clayton Tkeioar. She was formerly Joan Marie Barnes, widely acclaimed trapeze artist with Barnum Bailey. They are now co-owners of the T and B Sports Accessory Store in Podunk. Tenn. We understand that jAcgcrj.YN Frances Crittenden and Katherine Pai i ink Conley are studying veterinary surgery at Jerkwater. Nebraska, and will demonstrate how to amputate a dog’s tuil In three easy lessons. It Is amazing how the boys have kept their youthful appearance and sohooltay complexion through the use of Dr. Neil Eigk.ni Roberts, excruciating Tonic for Titanic Obesity. Remember back in the good old school days when Artiicr Steward. Jit. had an orchestra of his own? Well, he is rais- ing rabbits, the skins of which are used in the manufacture of snow suits for the marines of New Guinea. We were notified earlier today that Bethel Mae Bergman and Bitty Jane Franklin will be de- tained from our program because of their piano concert tour of the European Continent. They are widely known for their popular arrangement of Wabash Cannon Ball . In the midst of the crowd we see Mildred Ali.een Phillips demonstrating her new El Bushe Hair Restorer , which she de- veloped while Professor of Chemistry at the Uni- versity of Michigan. In another direction we find Twila Raines, the outstanding woman lawyer of Washington. I). C.. who won the notorious Pretty CLASS PROPHECY President’s Message The 1944 senior class can look with pride on a successful four years of study and a completion of the projects attempted by its students. The ac- complishments derived from its effort in proms, mixers, magazine and Christmas card sales are a glorious example of a willing and capable group of students, working in harmony to attain a certain high goal set for themselves. In four years of study and associations in clubs, and outside work, the class has endeaY’ored to pre- pare each student to face the world, determined to do the Job he likes and for which he has pre- pared himself. The knowledge gained makes our plans possible even in a world as troubled as ours. As we look to graduation we wonder: Shall we succeed? Shall we enjoy what we planned? Will the war Impair our decisions or will It aid and increase our desires in the field we select? The answer is not then for the class to decide hut for us as individuals. The change is a great change hut the knowledge we guined. the confidence we’ve acquired will help us in the world. So we’ll go into it as good citizens and strive to make a tatter, more peaceful world. NEIL COCHRANE. ’44. President. Boy Slasenhoffner kidnapping case two years ago. We were notified that there will l»e a short dra- matic skit later on the program under the direction of Marimx Io.ne Peeieer. who is dietician for Piper Pickle Products of Pittsburg. Pennsylvania . The play, entitled Who Stole Mrs. Kipltnger’s Corn Plasters?”, was written by the notable playwright. Emma Geneve Mii.i.ek. This is the six hundred thirty-fourth play she has formulated In two years. The lighting Is under the auspices of Ri shell Dki.and. who Is hcadllghting technician for Shickel and Shimmer Light and Power Co. of Detroit. George Willis Riddle., head photographer for Peek magazine, will take Intimate snapshots from the various scenes of this play. The cast members of the “Cascade Comedy Caravan” are as follows: Jack Eegexe Homier (who was formerly salesman of that snappy, snazzy new automobile. Dodgem ) will play the part of the hero. Esther Eleanor Jones (who now owns the controlling in- terest in the California Fruitgrowers Exchange) will star as the heroine. Mary All ken King (the former National Roller Skating Champion and known for her great ability in figure skating» will characterize Mrs. Kiplinger. Partners In crime are Myry Irene Scoyii.l and William Irwin Den- ning— (Mary, who was the violinist on the Henri- etta Malted Milk Show and Bill, widely acclaimed piccolo player In the Philadelphia Symphony Or- chestral. What's this? It looks like a parade coming! Well. If It Isn't Ned Leonard Walters, heavyweight taxing champion who defeated Joe Lewis in a dra- matic struggle last year. At his side we see Max Leroy Wii more and Richard A. Hicks, who are co-partners of the Hieksmore Still Producers of America. Standing near Sophie Dorothy Heinzk. the for- eign ambassador to Hindustan, who just arriY’ed in Charlotte by rocketshlp and will spend a few days with friends, is Mildred Kathleen Bi rchfield, the Swan Diving Champion of the Billy Rose Acquacade and Phyllis Bernik k Zimmeri.ee. noted golf cham- pion and winner of the Bobby Jones Award in driving and putting for the last year. Engaging in deep conversation we observe Betty I» Sqeihb and Constance Elaine Beebe, who seem to have a disagreement over who Is the tatter undertaker when up steps the Chief of Police, James Richard Mathews, to settle the dispute. It seems that Chief Mathews makes an excellent mediator in arguments between members of the opposite sex. Just driving up in front of the studio in their Saxon Super Sixteen are Mary Jane Spac.ncolo and Anna Mae Roystox. Mary Jane, who is the woman reporter for the Salt Lake City Bugle will be responsible for accumulating news for her paper. Her friend and close companion is the Dean of Women at the Patterson College in Waterbary, Conn. Carroll Palmer Bower, whose tendency to wield a gavel, lunded him the position of Chief of Justice of the Supreme Court and Wayne Eli Soft h ward. leader of Casey's Collossal Corncrackers hillbilly band from the hills of Old Kentucky over White Leghorns. Both arc amateur poultry ranchers. What's goln' on in the corner? Marian Irene Sloan and Glen n a Mae Snyder seem at odds with each other over the question of Who is the best dressed. As you know Glenna Mae Is the fashion Mrs. Kiplinger Quizzed Reveals Her Ambition Upon being Interviewed. Mrs. Kiplinger. history. Bible and English teacher, remarked that she has spent a number of years teaching. After finishing high school, she taught for two years in a rural school. Then she went to college and received her degree from the University of Michigan. On being asked how she felt on the first day of teaching she replied. I was rather shaky liecause I was afraid the school commissioner would come in to observe how poorly I might Ik doing. Mrs. Kiplinger also stated that she had ulways wanted to be a teacher tacause she enjoyed hooks, and as a child liked to play school. One thing she has never forgotten from her first Job. was u compliment paid her by the school com- missioner; It was that she had a well modulated voice for a schoolroom, not raspy or loud, and easy to understand. Bui to continue with the story: After being graduated from college. Mrs. Kiplinger then re- turned to Charlotte where she was hired as a teacher in the high school where she has been for some time. When asked what satisfaction she re- ceived from teaching, she stated that the friend- ships she has made particularly with students along the way. in personal contacts and in corre- spondence have given her the enjoyment. To have her own daughter in her classes was a delightful experience, too. Quizzed on her uinhition in life she said. Not to be able to continue with pipe organ lessons has l oen a great disappointment to me; however. music in the home has continued, and practicing is a source of extreme enjoyment.” One of the experiences she has had was related as follows: One evening after supper, there was a knock on the door and upon answering it I found a senior boy. He invited me to go to a church service wltn him; I went. Afterwards, he took me home. We had a real visit. Evidently he had had a longing for the companionship of someone older and had chosen me for that friendship. I felt highly complimented. On the subject of travel, her trip through the Canadian Rockies and the sight of the enormously high. bare, jagged rocks gave her one of her great- est thrills. Too, traveling through the mountains on a Sunday was truly a worshipful experience and never to lie forgotten. Something which has amounted to a hobby for her is to do something for someone, memorize some passage, and see something taautlful e ’ery dny. So ended a very pleasant interview. editor for the Madamoseille Magazine, while Mar- ian is with the Esquire Magazine for women. William Hayward Smiley is now mayor of Oke- mos . He will deliver a speech later. He finds It necessary to keep with him at all times his reliable iHMlyguard, Carl Max King, as his chief enemy. Richard Fellertox. has taen on his trail for sev- eral months. It seems that Mayor Smiley has a daughter!! Here comes Donna Mkkrii.ee Vierk in a terrible hurry. She tells us that the town's most outstand- ing veterinarian. Lrciu.i Marie LaPoint, has per- fected some kind of feed for dairy cows which, when given them, mukes them produce ready-made malted milk, and now Donna claims that her cows are all giving malted milk. Reclining at the farther end of the studio is Donna Madge French, who is the owner of French's Friendly Inn at Woodward and Griswold In Detroit. Irma Jean Green is the chief cook and plans all the menus for Miss French. Joining their group Is that well-known Blues Singer for the N-B.C. network. Caroline Grace Myers. Along with the program this afternoon we have with us Eegene Gordon Roystox who will enter- tain us with some songs he has made popular with his guitar. I .ate arrivals are Winifred Jean Park, who is a deep sea diver off the coast of Florida, and Shirley Mai Tell ah. who is the skipper on Miss Parr's boat. They have been working together since graduation in '44 and have made a fortune in pearls. Well folks, our program is about to begin. Oops— here conies the grand finale: Carroix Allen Phillips and Robert Earl Pa ton. They are the famous twin tapdancers from the Palmer House In Chicago. They will do an aerobatic tap dance tak- en from Shakespearian drama. Mid-Summer Night's Dream . Nearly everyone has arrived so we shall begin the program immediately. 9

The CHARHIAN FEATURE PAGE “Post War Peace” How bright will the world be after the war? Have you ever thought of this? It is now that everyone must, put in a helping hand to make the post-war world as happy as possible.! We dream of the day when peace comes, and normality will guide our way. But normality will not come right after the war. and it is up to us back home to do all that is in our power to give the boys coming back the place they looked forward to. It is wise to invest as much as possible in war bonds, and it is easy to spend money on goods we can get along without. Also we are more easily tempted by black market” deals now- adays when we are in the money. Ten years from now the situation will be different. We shall be thank-; ful then for dividends coming to us from bonds we bought when money was plentiful. Inflation will not be so apt to come, if today, we are not fri-1 volous with our money, but spend it wisely. You students, now in high school, will be the ones affected by this the most, and it is more than worthwhile j to think about, and decide to do all you can to help win the post-war peace. His Future Is What You Make It This is about the future of a little boy—a child whom you all know well. | He lives right down the street, or perhaps in the house next door: or even in your own home. Exactly where doesn't matter. Here’s what’s most important. His world is what you make it. His future is in your hands. Facing this knowledge squarely, can you shirk the duty of buying all the War Bonds and Stamps you can possibly afford? And then buying more of them? They are an assurance that every child you know, for generations to come, will Inherit a free America—in a free world. An assurance that Johnny can live in a better world and have a good education, a free world where freedom of speech, religion and press, make a future of tomorrow for Johnny and his children to live in. By buying more bonds and stamps you may bring one more boy back, to live the life of a free and better j world. Remember his future is what you make it.

Economical Scot Stand behind your lover, false woman. thundered the Scotchman. “I’m going to shoot you both. Considerate Tho! Richard H.: But I don’t think I deserve a zero.” Mrs. Wlltfern: Neither do I. but it's the lowest mark I’m allowed to give. Simpler Give me a glass of milk and a but- tered muffin. You mean a buffered muttin. No. I mean a muffered buttln. Why not take doughnuts and Watch Their Smoke An old WEAVER told me the fol- lowing story many, many years ago; in fact it was before I came in to being. The SHUMAKER drove SOUTH- WARD to the corner grocery which was owned by a YOUNG man. Ap- proaching COCHRANE, he decid- ed to stop at the WRIGHT drug store to get a CHERRY coke. He went over to the next counter to pur- CHASE some SQUIBB'S dental cream when a POTTER said. Halt. ORR I’ll shot! my BEEBE gun. Just then a little ARCHER with a dirty FACE came In bouncing a HALL, ifnd with a BROWN DERBY perched upon his head. He SWIFTly noticed the man with the gun and STARRed towards him with SPARKS in his eyes. The gun went off and the bullet SAYLEed past and WINGed a LOCKE of hair. SLOAN’S Linament was immediately applied and he was taken away in a PACKARD. A BAK- ER called his H ART-broken PAR- ENTS and they nearly PARISHed when they heard about it. Meantime the car. on its way through the park hit a HACK during a HALE storm: the HORN stuck and their GOODRICH tires squealed. Be sure to listen next week, when WEHR going to PIERCE the clouds of mystery, solve the RIDDLE of the missing DIAMOND and see how tie- CRAVEN villain can BARRETT. We PRAY that you will be WELLs and listening. The Five Books I’d lake With Me Into a Foxhole In deciding on this subject, every individual interviewed chose the Bible as the book he would abso- lutely take with him. The reason for wanting this book above all oth- ers was also universal. To give strength and courage to carry on no matter what, was the thought express- ed by all. But now to reveal the results of each individual decision. Amy (’hep- man. senior student, remarked ns follows: 1. The Bible—for courage and strength to fight on. 2. Ix ve story — to free worried mind. 3. Joke book—to lessen tension and have a laugh or two. 4. Biography—someone much ad- mired for abilities for moral support. 5. Travel—book of United States for memories of home. Miss Wells. English teacher, was more specific as to the books she pre- ferred. 1. Bible—for assurance of gui- dance. 2. Hamlet—to know that others have suffered and faced similar trials. 3. Human Comedy for relaxation and a reminder of the home much lov- ed. 4. Mixed poetry — to know that beauty and fineness are still alive and to be fought for. 5. A Laugh A Day Keeps the Doc- tor Away by Irvin S. Cobb—to re- lieve the tension. With anyone of these sets of books one could never feel alone even in the midst of bombs, death, and destruc- tion. Books can be the light of the world.
